Vice President Joe Biden (half-)joked to Jay Leno on the Tonight Show this evening that he wanted to include conservative talk radio king Rush Limbaugh as part of the spy swap that took place earlier today with Russia.
The Obama administration has targeted Limbaugh as an enemy of the regime since it came to power in January 2009.
The Associated Press reported on Biden's appearance on the Tonight Show:
Leno then showed a sultry photo of alleged Russian agent Anna Chapman and asked: "Are our spies this hot?"
Biden's reply, in a mock-serious tone: "Let me be clear. It was not my idea to send her back."
The vice president also said he had one more suggestion for the deal that was ignored.
"I thought they'd take Rush Limbaugh," he said.
Joking about Soviet-style exiling of your political opponents is apparently in fashion in the Obama administration. For the foreseeable future, Rush Limbaugh better make sure it's the real EIB One he's flying.
What ratings?
LLS
Has anybody here ever IMAGINED the day here in America when our #2 official would be on a comedy t.v. show -joking about a situation as serious as this???
What a smartass, Rush will hit him so harrd next week the morons hair plugs will pop out.
Well, we had Bill Clinton playing the saxophone on a similar venue, and we have Barry Soetoro joking about what will happen to illegals in Arizona.
joey, joey, joey - a legend in your own amoebic mind.
Liberals are among the very few creatures which do not come equipped with enough brains to tan their own hide. Biden’s brains wouldn’t be sufficient to tan a squirrel skin.
Biden is a Moron from the backwaters of Scranton, PAand the only reason he was chosen as VP was he had his son, Beau, lock up Larry Sinclair to shut Larry up after his National Press Club Assault of Truth on Obozo Hussein’s Sexual Homosexual Alleged Activities!
Actually, it was one of his witty advisers who said it.
It’s sorta funny...not too bad.
Never pick a fight with someone who buys radio waves by the gigawatt.
Biden's reply, in a mock-serious tone: "Let me be clear. It was not my idea to send her back."
That would have been an appropriately creepy line for Bill Clinton to say.
Maybe it’s just me but I’d take Valerie Plame over that Chapman girl any day.
Nice to see Biden is copying Obama with his “let me be clear” line. Obama always says that. It’s like how McCain always said “My Friends”.
Leno should have told Biden his jokes were funnier when Neil Kinnock said them for the first time.
Once again proving that national security is not important where matters of liberal politics are concerned.
LOL! That would have been a great line.
That about sums it up :)
The ‘60s launched America’s Peter-Pan Age. Nobody wants to be a grownup anymore.
If Biden didn’t know security info, I know whom I’d trade for a spy.
