Joe Biden IS Mr. Sardonicus

I've never thought much of Joe Biden. But man, did he get it right in last night's debate, and not just because he walloped sniveling little Paul Ryan on the facts. What he got absolutely right, despite what you might read this morning (many outlets are criticizing Biden's dramatic excesses), was his tone. Biden did absolutely roll his eyes, snort, laugh derisively and throw his hands up in the air whenever Ryan trotted out his little beady-eyed BS-isms.
But he should have! He was absolutely right to be doing it. We all should be doing it. That includes all of us in the media, and not just paid obnoxious-opinion-merchants like me, but so-called "objective" news reporters as well. We should all be rolling our eyes, and scoffing and saying, "Come back when you're serious."

My Nov 7 FU list just keeps getting longer and longer. Matt Taibbi is now on that list. We really need to have a separate FU thread after the election. That would be fun!
From your lips to Gods ears!!
Rush is right. Biden encapsulated who these Democrats are — they are the big meanies. They are not decent people.
It amazes me how ignorant people are to believe the likes of Mr Biden.
Nov 6th we, on FreeRepublic are going to be doing the laughing
Matt Taibi wouldn’t know the truth if it came up and slapped him his face. Breitbart.com reported Biden lied at least ten times during the debate.
