Obama gave Biden ‘every s- -t job in the world’

By S.A. Miller

February 27, 2014 | 6:23pm

WASHINGTON – Vice President Joe Biden groused that President Obama gave him “every s- -t job in the world,” but still doesn’t fully trust him.

The revelations about Biden’s tortured relationship with Obama, detailed in a lengthy profile by Politico, only got worse when the Veep in 2012 came out in support of gay marriage while Obama was still on the record opposing it.

The infamous gaffe, which pre-empted Obama’s announcement that he had “evolved” on the issue and supported gay marriage, so outraged Obama’s top aides that they froze Biden out of White House decision-making meetings.

Biden, 71, had agreed early on to take on all the unsavory jobs, from settling Senate spats to cooling out jittery Afghan President Hamid Karzai.

But he wanted to be included in the big decisions.

“When the president asked me what portfolio did I want, I said, ‘Base it on what you want of me to help you govern,’” Biden recalled telling Obama.

“‘But I want to be the last guy in the room on every major decision. … You’re president, I’m not, but if it’s my experience you’re lookin’ for, I want to be the last guy to make the case.’”

The gay gaffe, however, broke the deal.

God allowed them to be put in that position, because America is under judgement. If the country lasts that long, Hillary will be next.

Yep, we should all just give up and head for Belize.

When do you leave?

Joe Biden was selected for one reason only, to give some sort of legitimacy, in a democrat party sort of way, to the ‘08 ticket. Now he is going to be discarded like a Bill Clinton oval office tissue and he is not happy about it. It’s a just reward for a terrible person.

This link will take you to a very interesting answer to why Biden is such a nut. https://www.google.com/search?q=how+many+times+has+joe+biden+had+brain+surgery%3F&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=fflb

You have to give it to FR posters for humor. I like this.

There is no better evidence of exactly how “eff’d” up the world is, than to see these two POS’s as president and vice president of this country. Surreal doesn’t even begin to describe it...

To understand Joe you have to know about Delaware.

It's a very small place, with Joe related to about 75% of the white people who live there and about 35% of the African Americans. The biggest non-chemical industry is chickens. Between the fumes from chemical plants, the heady aroma of chicken houses, and jet exhaust, the people there have a very high rate of retardation and suffer from ...um shall we say a very dense gene pool.

Election to a federal post is just one way they get rid of particularly idiotic cousins. The jobs pay well, and Delaware is so close to DC that more normal relatives can easily check on them.

This is what kept Joey Plugs in Washington so long, where he learned a lot about foreign lands like Maine or Virginia. Idiot though he may be, Joey is a pretty darn good politician and has made himself useful to generations of Democrats and he does have the "common touch." In fact, although he comes from a wealthy family that drank away its money, he has the commoners convinced he's one of them.

Joey does illustrate a fundamental flaw in the Constitution. Delaware and Rhode Island are rump states that should both be represented by one Senator. Not each. One guy for both states. Given the collective IQ of these strange places, this should be an appointive post and not given to a native of either place.

Joey may not yet know this, but he is to be tapped as the Democrats' Presidential Candidate, with Michelle as his VP. Barry will come out of the closet. Joey and Michelle will receive the female sympathy vote and 103% of the African-American vote to win in a landslide. Then, right after his inauguration, Joey Plugs will be euthanized and Michelle will take over.

I find it satisfying to think there may be a connection between Biden and the mob hit on Hoffa. Interesting book: I Heard You Paint Houses.
