Now you’ve done it! The SS will be monitoring all Polar Bears to stave off a threat to feckless Joe.

President Obama noted the specialized nature of the mission of the Vice President.

“We are trying to find the existence of the last wild Dodo bird on the planet. The best way to find a Dodo bird is to send another Dodo bird to track it.

Through his long tenure in the US Senate, Joe Biden has proved he has what it takes to track the Dodo bird.

Yes, he can.”

So this isn’t a joke?

It's a joke, and a really funny one. The sub-headline reads, "High-level Trip Could Last Four Years, President Hints." :)

It's a sly way of saying Obama will ignore Biden for the next four years.

You might try penguins, as there are no polar bears in Antarctica.

I have totally lost my sense of humor. To me, I feel foreboding taxation/global warming scaremongering claptrap UN intervention. It’s Sunday night in week one and he has already messed with the auto company’s fuel mileage requirements. I’m afraid its no joke.

You should follow the link and read the story about how 0bama refuses to answer reporter’s questions about the size of his package. It’s even funnier than the Biden one.
