"Ah crap...this is a tough one;....who to root for?"

Root for the plugs. They're expensive.

Stop with the photo shop stuff, at least show enough respect to show the POTUS in a didnified fasion without alteration! ~ snort

[Frank_2001]

And Biden was probably thinking, “Hey, fireworks! COOL!”/s;)

[SoCalPol]

Hey there, we need Biden for comic relief.
We don’t need third in charge Nazi Pelosi

[Allegra]

Business as usual eh?

Yep. Ol' Bite Me and Friends caused some of our roads to be closed off, making it a pain to get around base.

We're glad to see them head to DoS-Land. I'm sure the roads on the Embassy Compound are all screwed up now.

We'll be even happier to see 'em leave Iraq.

[Sender]

I think they know when anyone important is coming by watching the aircraft coming in and the speeding convoys. I bet it was a circus of security activity.

[BIGLOOK]

Avoid Biden at all costs......you'd be safer out on the streets even if rockets are falling.

Happy 4th of July, Allegra!

Stay safe!

[mylife]

I wonder what the putz is doing over there?

[Allegra]

Hey there, we need Biden for comic relief.

No problem. We'll try to return him to the States as fast as we can.

We really don't want him here. They screw up our roads and make things difficult.

[padre35]

The Terrs never messed with Dick Cheney, for a number of reasons I’d suspect..

[davidosborne]

Is it time for SURGE part II

[Allegra]

I wonder what the putz is doing over there?

Trying to tell the Iraqi government how to do things and pissing them off?

[I see my hands]

"Is this good news or bad news?"

Can't say. I mean: can't say.

[Republic of Texas]

Who did the shooting, our guys or the Taliban?

[OneWingedShark]

The question everyone is asking: Did they get him?

[mylife]

Most likely.

Still I am surprised that he went on at all, let alone a holiday.

[kenmcg]

Hope he brought extra underwear.

[Allegra]

Avoid Biden at all costs......you'd be safer out on the streets even if rockets are falling.

Now, I'm not quite so sure about that.

Rockets are smarter.

Happy Fourth to you, too!

[Rome2000]

At least he’s not bothering Little Leaguers.

[SoCalPol]

LOL! Just when you think things are calming down, Joey shows up.

So glad to see Gen. Petraeus in cammies back in theater.
This is one Great American
