Vice President Joe Biden enjoys swimming without a bathing suit, a new book claims.
Biden, whos flirting with a run for president in 2016, gives Secret Service agents an eyeful both at his Delaware home and at the vice presidents official residence in Washington, D.C., according to The First Family Detail by Ronald Kessler.
The book relies on named and unnamed sources to describe life guarding prominent politicians including Biden, former President Ronald Reagan, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama.
Agents say that, whether at the vice presidents residence or at his home in Delaware, Biden has a habit of swimming in his pool nude, Kessler writes in the book due for release Aug. 5.
Female Secret Service agents find that offensive, he writes.
Biden likes to be revered as everyday Joe," an unnamed agent told Kessler. "But the reality is no agents want to go on his detail because Biden makes agents lives so tough.
In addition to the alleged skinny-dipping, agents are reportedly irritated by frequent last-minute trips to Delaware.
A Biden spokeswoman would not address the claims on the record. A spokesperson for the Secret Service did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Kessler worked for several mainstream publications including more than a decade at The Washington Post before a stint as chief Washington correspondent at the conservative online publication Newsmax in the early 2000s.
His reporting has won two George Polk awards.
Kessler does have credibility reporting on the Secret Service.

No pics, please.

Yea, it was posted here a year ago, and it is no more substantive today than it was then.
But please, let the faux outrage begin!
RE: it is no more substantive today than it was then.
What does this mean, the report was false and he never and no longer does it?
Is your response tongue in cheek? Or are you really not clear on what not substantive or faux outrage mean?
not substantive - having no substance (in other words, a ridiculous and meaningless issue). These are secret service agents we’re talking about. Licensed to kill, as it were. An ass visible in the water is not going to bother them.
faux outrage - fake outrage, outwardly showing outrage that is not felt internally, that is not real (faux = false), for the purposes of bitching and moaning about something.
Does this help?

It means that dmz rejects FR’s moral standards as much now as he did then.
IOW, not really anything new to be gathered from his posts.

Most people would have ignored the question.
