Off-script Biden says some Democrats 'turkeys' Posted: September 25th, 2009 09:12 AM ET

From From CNN Ticker Producer Alexander Mooney

(CNN) — Joe Biden has campaigned for a lot of Democrats during his lifetime in politics — including a few who are "turkeys," the vice president joked at a Thursday night fundraiser in Virginia.

Attending the fundraising event on behalf of three Democratic House members from Virginia — Reps. Glenn Nye, Gerry Connelly and Tom Perriello — at the home of former Virginia Sen. Chuck Robb, an off-script Biden suggested competence doesn't stretch across the entire Democratic Party.

"These guys are smart, "Biden said of the three Virginia congressmen. "Some of the guys Chuck [Robb] and I have campaigned for are turkeys. Not all Democrats are created equal, while most Republicans are."

The thing about Biden is that you have a hard time accusing him of having a “hidden agenda”, because he holds nothing back.

I suspect the Democrats are not the only major party that contains undesirable office-holders.

I wonder if Robb had any beauty queens around offering a "massage" to his guests.

My new favorite quote:

“If Bullsh*t were currency...Joe Biden would be a billionaire”

George W. Bush

Where are all these cool Bush quotes coming from all of a sudden, and why didn’t we hear them earlier?

Yeah, he's like a grampa at the dinner table who scrunches his face, leans over, and lets loose a loud fart as he chuckles. You half expect him to say, "Quick! Pull my finger!"

They are from some yet to be released books.

Can you imagine what how hilarious it would be if a video came out showing school kids singing Biden’s praises?
