Sharp Elbows, Cold Shoulders Mark Biden Trip to Israel
Vice President Biden's trip to the Middle East -- meant to pave the way for a new round of Israeli-Palestinian peace talks -- is coming to a close, leaving in its wake a trail of stinging snubs, cringe-worthy blunders and one-word headlines in Israelis newspapers: "Embarrassment."
Vice President Biden's trip to the Middle East -- meant to pave the way for a new round of Israeli-Palestinian peace talks -- is coming to a close, leaving in its wake a trail of stinging snubs, cringe-worthy blunders and one-word headlines in Israel newspapers: "Embarrassment."
If it were merely a series of typical "Biden'isms," it'd be one thing. But in a sign that U.S.-Israeli relations have cooled, the vice president and top Israeli officials spent the better part of the week poking each other in the eye.
It didn't take long to see the trip was not going well.
The U.S. vice president's most daring snub may have come when he arrived 90 minutes late to a dinner Tuesday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: “It’s easy to be vice president, you don’t have to do anything. It’s like being the grandpa and not the parent. Yeah, that’s it!”
You know he’s an expert at foreign relations, from all his time in the Senate talking about foreign relations.
Stand up Joe you brainless idiot! Americans elected two flaming IMBECILES for the #1 and #2 executive spots. What an incredible embarrassment!
That pretty well sums up Joe Biden.
Embarrassment pretty much sums up the entire Obama Administration.
This is what happens when you send a plagiarizer, college cheat, phony, pant-load to to a man’s job. Embarrassing to the citizens of the US to have this jackass and his incompetent boss getting involved in foreign policy. These two losers couldn’t find their pecker if it was in their pants.
Who is Mark Biden, and what is he doing in Israel?
Joe is the only thing that I can think of that makes Zero a less appealing target for removal from office...and even then it’s a toss up...President Biden...ohhhhhhh Doctor!
There is a good reason his nickname in The Senate was “Slow Joe”
Here’s a one-word headline for them:
STUPID!.............
I'm embarassed that he's our Vice President too.
Between Biden and Matthews, they cornered the market on being major buffoons.
Embarrassment pretty much sums up the entire Obama Administration.
Yeah I would have to agree. Only Democrats appear to be too stupid to be embarrassed. If I were in the House of Representatives and shoving all this garbage health Care Bill in every illegal manner possible, I would be ashamed to walk into the building through the front door. The Senate is no better and Biden makes Dan Quayle look like a scholar
“We see it as nothing short of an insult that President Obama himself is not coming.”
They saw it correctly.
