Joe Biden is proving impossible to parody.
In one of the few funny jokes at the White House correspondents dinner, Wanda Sykes won loud laughter when she joked that terrorists interested in learning America's most important secrets would only have to ask Biden how he's doing.
According to an account in Newsweek, Biden did give up one of the country's secrets at another dinner where journalists and politicians make fun of Republicans (and occasionally laugh at each other). Biden told his dinnermates about the existence of a secret bunker under the Vice President's Residence at the U.S. Naval Observatory.

Biden was a brilliant choice - to guarantee that nothing would ever happen to Obama. Pet rocks were smarter than Joe. And had more of their own hair, too!
“Stand up Chuck” at it again!
A brain is a terrible thing not to have
The poor man has had unsuccessful brain surgery THREE TIMES for pete’s sake. Just what did anyone expect.
I figured that all along... where do YOU think they would store the Bush/Rove/Cheney Weather Machine?/s;)
Ummmm..., it doesn’t appear anyone actually read the guts of the article... LOL...

Ever wonder about that secure, undisclosed location where Dick Cheney secreted himself after the 9/11 attacks? Joe Biden reveals the bunker-like room is at the Naval Observatory in Washington, where Cheney lived for eight years and which is now home to Biden. The veep related the story to his head-table dinner mates when he filled in for President Obama at the Gridiron Club earlier this year. He said the young naval officer giving him a tour of the residence showed him the hideaway, which is behind a massive steel door secured by an elaborate lock with a narrow connecting hallway lined with shelves filled with communications equipment. The officer explained that when Cheney was in lock down, this was where his most trusted aides were stationed, an image that Biden conveyed in a way that suggested we shouldn’t be surprised that the policies that emerged were off the wall.
Despite more than fifteen trips to the VPR over the past five years, and despite having conducted dozens of interviews about security precautions taken for Cheney and his staff after 9/11, I was never told such a bunker existed.

Well now..., that’s interesting.
I’ll bet there’s “secret bunkers” all over DC and the area.
Good golly what an arse hole he is!
OK it is classified ... but it is really a surprise? In computer security “security through obscurity” is always considered to be stupid ... you design security with the assumption that the attacker knows everything about the design.
Omg! You nailed it! LOL!
I had a good chuckle!
: )
I’m gonna be mad as he** if they have to spend billions of dollars to build him a new “secret safe room”, now that he has disclosed the location of the old one.
