Sen. Barack Obama better not mess with his running mate Joe Biden's guns...or else.

In an out-of-nowhere attempt to re-assure a southwestern Virginia labor crowd about gun owners' rights, Biden -- who regularly scores "F" ratings from the National Rifle Association -- warned Obama that if "he tries to fool with my Beretta, he’s got a problem."

No, I think he meant beret, monsieur.

I can see Biden and his Baretta on Ohio Ave. on Chicago’s south side. /s

[I'm ALL Right!]

See my tagline

[BallyBill]

Joe, please come back to Pennsylvania. It hasn't been the same since you and WC Fields left us.

What a STAND UP comedian he is.

“Obama can have my baguette when he pries it from my cold, dead hand with some brie and a chilled glass of Pouilly-Fuisse.”

- Joe Biden

Old slobbering drunk was referring to his beret

[timestax]

He needs to hold on to that Beretta. It will be a classic car in about three decades. I wonder if his Beretta has a moonroof/sunroof?

Lets see..who are we going to BELIEVE..?

[Lady GOP]

Biden, Rated F by the NRA, indicating a pro-gun control voting record.

Joe’s lying. Doubt he owns a Beretta, and if he did he would just hand it over to the Obama blue-shirts nice and easy-like.

I think debate will be a draw -- with slight advantage Palin.

She'll win on directness, and likability, but Biden will win on knowledge.

Moderators will purposely phrase questions in such a way that arcane Senate knowledge will be part of it.

[KJC1]

By the way, did this doof also have an eye job?

You know, I've been wondering the same thing. Either that or he's got too much (weird) make-up going on.

"“Obama can have my baguette when he pries it from my cold, dead hand with some brie and a chilled glass of Pouilly-Fuisse.” - Joe Biden"

Sorry Argus, I have to disagree. Biden wouldn't have class enough to know the words baguette and Pouilly-Fuisee. Even if he did, he couldn't pronounce them properly.

[Perdogg]

If he had it in DC, he had been breaking the law.

The NRA is running this ad on Va Tech radio games.

In an out-of-nowhere attempt to re-assure a southwestern Virginia labor crowd about gun owners' rights, Biden -- who regularly scores "F" ratings from the National Rifle Association -- warned Obama that if "he tries to fool with my Beretta, he’s got a problem."

In response to a concern expressed by a coal miner in the crowd's question who asked Biden how he felt playing second fiddle to a black guy, Biden quickly quipped, "well, remember now, he IS half white!"

(OK, that part is just a joke.)

Boob-bait for the bubbas ^TM, an' we ain't buyin' it.
