There are two categories of Biden idiocies, the ones that are genuinely offensive (“They gon’ put y’all back in chains”) and the ones that aren’t really offensive but would certainly be treated that way if he was a Republican. This one is a category two, I think, although admittedly the line is fine. If he went up to a table of Italian men and called himself “Joe Bidini,” that’s probably okay. If he went up to a table of Jewish men and called himself “Joe Bidenstein,” a little dodgier. If he went up to a table of Chinese men and called himself “Joe Wang,” he’d be in trouble even though, let’s face it, a lot of people would giggle.
Not sure how the pool reporter knew that Biden knew the men at the table were Greek. The story’s actually a lot funnier if you assume that he didn’t. But oh well. Kudos to whoever wrote this report for capturing the essence of the man. The “rice pudding” line really tops off his stream-of-consciousness doofishness perfectly.
I guess he thinks PA-DE people appreciate his “concern.”
But “narcisistic personality disorder” has been conviently/coincidentally removed from the DSM.
Slow Joe,,,the gift that doesn’t keep on giving because the media gives him a pass on everything he says.

And Obama chose him to be his ‘court jester’ to play the ‘dumb, old, rich, white guy’ to appeal to the black voters. I’ve said this all along. Think ‘The Jeffersons’.
Not every Greek name ends in -opoulos. So where are the cries of racial stereotyping?
Next up: Joe Biden appearing at the NAACP in minstrel blackface to a standing ovation. Slow-Joe can do no wrong.
Imagine Dan Quayle walking into a Jewish deli and saying, “Hi I’m dan Quaylestein.” The networks would have broke into regularly scheduled programing to call for him to be dropped from the ticket.
Thanks, Clint!
To quote Clint Eastwood from his schtick at the RNC Thursday night: “Joe Biden; the intellect of the Democrat Party!”
I hate to admit it but I laughed at that one.
I don’t want Joe to get in trouble. This is comedy gold!
Put some windex on him.
Hi, I’m Joe Dorkasaurus
...kind of a grin with a body behind it.
Yeah, it’s probably the only thing Biden has ever said that I actually found funny. It’s too bad only dems are allowed to joke around like that
He should have said “I’m Joe Bidistupidos” (had a couple of others that weren’t quite ladylike)
I heard that once when he was speaking to a group of cattle ranchers he referred to himself as Joe Bovinescatologist.
This guy should be placed on the endangered list of pathetic creatures.
Joe Bidenian, the Armenian.
