Biden taps reporter's chest, tells him, 'you need to work on your pecs'...
Developing...
Idunno...Drudge seems to think it's more important than nObama and the Logan Act.
This may be the gayest political story since Larry Craig didn’t take a dump.
Joking exchange or tense exchange?
Biden’s Admiral James Stockdale moment.......
SNORT!!!!
Kramer developed the Bro (bra for men).
It’s a thug get in your face thing.
And so beings the end of Joe Biden.
Still, the chest tapping has meaning ~ it means he's losing it ~ his mind ~ and other stuff.
That Post article came out on the worst possible day--when the Dow sunk 500 points. It got buried. Drudge had a link that day, but it went stale and he killed it. Had it come out this coming Monday it would have gotten more play. Also, the MSM won't touch it, obviously.
I think the Logan act stuff is a dead end. We need to stop overplaying every hand. We need to make sure we quote exactly what Obama says, and let people draw their own conclusions.
It’s clear Obama suggested the one agreement be delayed. He admitted it, his campaign advisor also said it.
However, that agreement wasn’t exactly the one that was about “force reductions”, so when we say he tried to slow down force reductions, we go beyond the evidence.
Now, even asking for the other agreement to be held up was a bad thing. But now we’ve got everybody at the meetings denying Obama tried to slow down “force reduction”. See, by deflecting, Obama can get denial for something he didn’t do, which hides the truth of what he DID do.
Same with Raines. McCain did well by putting the claim about Raines on the Washington post, rather than having the ad claim it directly. But even so, even the Washington Post is tending to call the ad bad. We just have to be extra careful.
I picked up a story about Obama claiming Corning shipped jobs overseas. But someone pointed out to me that the ad never says “Corning shipped jobs overseas”. It says Corning shipped the equipment from a shut-down plant overseas. OF course, the ad was about McCain helping companies ship jobs overseas, and the implication was that Corning sent the equipment over there to run a factory in another country.
But the Ad didn’t say that. So an attack on that ad had to say that it was misleading to SUGGEST that Corning opened a factory in China, just to attack McCain. It was unfair to a good American company, and the campaign should apologize.
But since I said Obama lied about shipping jobs overseas, I had to apologize, because that’s not what he said, just what he implied.
What I’m learning though is that, at this point, Obama can say anything he wants in any ad he wants and the media will ignore it. It must be fun to run a campaign where you can lie about your opponent.
For example, Obama blamed McCain for an Ad that was done by a 527 group. Clearly a lie. But he also said McCain was running on a “platform” that denies abortion for Rape and Incest. That’s true, only because that’s what the RNC platform says. IT’s not McCain’s platform. So Obama is misleading, but not lying.
Most of the reporters will let candidates get away with misleading, but not lying. Once they decided McCain had lied about the sex ed (which he had not — that was actually the truth), they felt it was OK to attack him on every ad.
Well, didn’t Obama tell his supporters to get in people’s faces and start arguments?
lol!
This week it’s all been about the END OF THE WORLD AND EVERYTHING.
And you want what?
Politics?
Bwahahahahaha~
Most of the time I don't get Drudge.
Although Biden is not exactly one to tell a man to work on his pecs considering his own. :)
How long can it take this story, or a set of pecs, to develop?
More details about the “incident” can be found here:

Considering that it was discussed yesterday, I’m not sure why it’s just now “developing” on Drudge’s site.

Remember Joe Biden?
Campaigning at the pro-football hall of fame this week, he walked up to Perry Bacon of time magazine and said he looked like he used to play Perry said he didn’t, but Senator Biden didn’t give up. He tapped him on the chest and said, “You need to work on your pecs.” Maybe the nicest thing that’s been said about a campaign reporter in a while.
