Joe Biden's joke about wife's Ph.D causes a 'problem' in duo debut
The New York Daily News ^ | August 23, 2008 | Celeste Katz and Michael Saul

Not everyone was feeling the love after Joe Biden and Barack Obama made their campaign debut together Saturday.

DENVER - Joe Biden got off on the wrong foot-in-mouth with some feminists and Hillary Clinton supporters when he joked that his wife's doctorate was a "problem" for him.

Ok...after looking at this photo waaaaay longer than I should have, I know who the ‘young’ J. Biden reminds me of...the late Andy Kaufman (in his Taxi years...there is a photo of him w/the ascot thingy and thinning hair). There...I feel better.

Beltless is not the ‘Country Gentlemen’ look. Biden trying hard; and missing it; big time. Am guessing he has ‘tried harder’ in ensuing years.

Wish he didn’t insult Hannah Montana like that. I’m sure Hannah’s IQ is much higher than NoBama’s.

She’s still attractive.

She’s aging but I’ve seen worse.

Look at Hitlery!

“She also has her doctorate degree”

Is this the woman who earns $ 20,500 for teaching?

What a waste of time and educational resources!

Not to mention Joe’s waste. Both would have been better off selling cars and using that education money for trips, beer, real estate, etc.

This pic grosses me out every time I see it.

I'm guessing that there will be many, many more ugly pix yet to come before all of this is over.

It will probably be a good idea to stock up on Pepto-Bismol....

wife swapping. That’s the term I’ve been looking for.

A popular Democrat activity.

When your religion is Political Correctness, NOTHING but emasculated, empty pablum is considered non-offensive, acceptable speech.

And fawning deification of all Approved Groups du jour.

I hate to say this, but Hitlery started to grow on me after a while - Rush noticed it too - he remakred that she had that "full, flush" look in her face when she one the New Hampshire primary.

There's something mildly alluring about the Queen Ice B*tch - think of Tilda Swinton's portrayal of the White Witch in TLTW&TW.

She also did a pretty good job as an androgynous angel Gabriel in Constantine:
