Now the media foams at the mouth.

[SE Mom]

Dear lord, Biden says Obama is going to restore the soul of America!

Biden sounded...like he was on bad speed.

[mass55th]

"Does anyone have a hanky? ;)"

Why, do you drool when you laugh?

[toldyou]

“Barack “AMERICA”??
Did he just say that?
Or did I mis-hear?”

Hee-hee....THANKS! I heard it, too and wished someone else did. LOL!

[Son House]

Biden
“this may be our last chance to reclaim the America we love”

“God bless America, and may he protect our Troops”

[Right_in_Virginia]

I think Biden must of had a few celebratory cocktails last night or on the plane ride over.

A few??

[TomGuy]

Biden invokes Lincoln.

[BulletBobCo]

Finally over.

[HIDEK6]

Am I the only one noticing that the crowd doesn’t seem totally psyched/loud/cheering?

They remind me of me right after I took the wedding vows in my first marriage.

My G-d, what HAVE I done?

[popdonnelly]

“the other 2 broadcast networks are back to regular programming”

They know a dog when they see one.

[tpanther]

hypocrats don’t think in those terms because they simply don’t have to.

Their constituents are diseased mentally ill godless liberals and the media is in their BACK POCKET.

Therefore they can get away with the most profound hypocrisy while demonizing their opponents.

It’s not an issue in the slightest for them.

Been laughing this morning at the press spinning Plugs Biden as Obama’s pick to add “experience” to the ticket — in other words, “gravitas.”

Biden as Obama’s Cheney, what a joke! Biden is the ANTI-GRAVITAS pick of our dreams.

And as if to subtly undermine his own pick, Obama referred to Biden several times in his introduction as “still that scrappy kid from Scranton,” it’s like he had to conjure up imagery that made Biden junior to him by talking so much about stuff from Biden’s youth and early career. This says to me that he’s very uncomfortable with having picked the entrenched, status-quo old politician.

[NonValueAdded]

I think biden just said protect our fruits.

Well, it IS a platform plank.

[keepitreal]

Michelle doesn’t look too enthused.

[DallasBiff]

They can’t even use an American group for their stage exit(u2 is on). Hey Joe/Obama outsourcing the music I see.

[defconw]

No I was touched. ;) Do I really have to tag this?

[Right_in_Virginia]

Biden said he was “is drop dead gorgeous”.

Oops..make the "he" "she"....Biden was talking about his wife.

[AnnGora]

Doncha just love how they keep emphasizing how Obama’s papaw rode with Patton? Patton would have booted both these cockroaches right in the keester!

[Miss Didi]

My gosh...could Michelle spring for a wardrobe? Get that woman a stylist. That dress is as frumpy as Aunt Esther.

[Dog]

I am sitting rolling with Laughter...this is a dream come true.

Comedy GOLD BABY!!!!!

Gold!
