At a church community center in DC today, VP Biden was wearing an apron and serving fish sticks to the homeless today. 27 minutes ago from web
In serving the homeless, Biden said: "you've got to remind yourself that but for the grace of God there goes I." 23 minutes ago from web
He’s something.
Joe’s a 24/7 demonstration of the Peter Principle.
It’s always imagery and symbolism with these liberals. Never anything of substance.
Does this mean the homeless are gay fish?
More like, “There but for the idiot voters in Delaware go I.”
I want to see his shoes!
By 2012, Slow Joe may actually BE there, by the grace of God and the American right-of-center electorate.
I’m sure he did it just for the halibut.
He found a job he can really do.
With Joe I think it's actually a violation of the Peter Principle. He's gone further up, waaaay further, than someone of his caliber would.
Does this mean the homeless are gay fish?
He does know you have to heat them first, right?
Good for Joe. Finally found something he might be good at.
Ya know. Instead of FDR, 1933, very little TV and the actual stock market crash of 1929 and Herbert Hoover and very, very little TV.
That being said he’s still probably more competent than Barry.
And his gaffes are always good for a laugh. Really, they are.
Looks like he brought his own apron for this photo-op. Everyone else has matching burgundy aprons.
What a guy. Hard turds on a plate for the sheeple. Just look how he ogles them. LOL
such generosity
They should have served turkey. It’s better for you and it’s cheaper.
They don’t have any substance; only lies.
Give a man a fishstick and he’ll eat for a day. Stop killing private industry so they can hire people like the fishstick guy, and he’ll eat every day.
Hmmm? Which is more compassionate?
LOL - ya got me, now I need a new cup of coffee...
Wait until it sinks in with the Obama voters their elected one is not black.
It just occurred to me that the cooks and servers are the jobs he says they have created...... or saved.
The V.P. is doing some public service at a church, and that quote "but for the grace of God go I" is certainly applicable to ALL of us.
Now, are fishsticks kind-of funny? Sure. But I don't think ol' slow Joe woke up one morning and said "What do the homeless need? FISHSTICKS!" I suspect that's what the center had on the menu, and he was just helping out with whatever they were doing.
This administration MUST start creating jobs, the real way (broad tax breaks), lest we all find ourselves in line for our fishsticks. And of course, Obama will fight that tooth and nail. But this? Eh, it's just politician public service - doing the right thing, with a camera crew in tow.
Lord isn’t he!!! Imagine if Dan Quayle made as many gaffs.
Was he wearing $500 tennie runners too???
Biden, “you’ve got to remind yourself that but for the grace of God there goes I.”
Maybe we’re the lucky ones today.
Maybe it’s by God’s grace that he was out at the homeless shelter, instead of hanging around at the WH, advising Obama on the war.
“there goes I.”
Thank You Mr. Vice President for displaying such an elegant command of the English language for our children to admire.
I wonder if he’s helping the homeless with that three letter word: J-O-B-S
Is that Kanye?
Does he like fishsticks in his mouth? (south park reference for the uninitiated...)
Haven’t they suffered enough?
Big deal. His boss feed a multitude with a few fishes. He even threw in loaves!
Or... Obama's way of keeping ole' Joe busy.
Regardless, bless him for doing it.
I believe it came out during the campaign that old Joe was not much for charitable donations unless it is with other peoples money.
The church was very generous to serve the food and provide our middle class hero warrior with a photo op.
Thank You Mr. Vice President for displaying such an elegant command of the English language for our children to admire.
He may have misread his own teleprompter. Biden was given instructions to give one fish stick per person.
As a person passed, he put one on a plate and said
“"there goes 1."”
;)
This liberal hypocrite contributed only few hundred dollars to charities last year with an income of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
As my grandpa would say, Joe don’t know the war’s over...
the only thing worse than an Obama presidency is the realization that we would be in for 3.5 years of president Biden.
Talk about something that would make your butt pucker, thats it.
Then you realize he's not in the attic anymore...
He likes Fish Sticks? What is he a gay fish?
Too bad Obama was out of town. As we all know, he could have served the multitudes (all of D.C., anyway), with five rolls and two fishsticks, and turned the water into Sauvignon Blanc, too.
Obama is in Asia on another vacation junket. It’s by the grace of God that he’s not sitting around at the White House doing the job that he was elected for, which is to sit in for the President while he is away.
I remember 2-3 years ago Dick Cheney recieved some divedend or something, previously agreed upon, from Haliburton, for the tune of multiple millions of dollars. And he donated the entire amount to charity/s.
Not much said in the MSM about that.
I remember 2-3 years ago, GWB flew into Iraq under the cover of darkness. And unannounced, served our soldiers Thanksgiving dinner.
Stand up, CHUCK!
Current Health Care Bill : It’s a Mandate on Charities, Too

You honestly don't think he did any more than don the apron and pose for some photos, do you?
Note that even the shelter managers knew better than to trust him with any sharp objects like knives, etc.
Fish stick server? Well, that’s about all he’s good for really. Besides a lot of gaffs and laughs.
you’d think someone as wealthy as Joe could spring for something a little more appetizing than the Freezer Queen carp fingers...
This was a good day for ole Joe, he managed to show up for a photo-op and not put his foot in his mouth.
(I have low expectations for slow joe)
