"Everytime I see VP Biden doing something, anything, I hear Dr. Venkman talking to Dr. Stanz in Ghostbusters..."

Actually, it made me think of a different line from the same movie: "Yes it's true...this man has no dick."

This entire conflict will wind down quickly as soon as Obama figures out that it is the UKRAINE that Putin is after, not Obama’s COCAINE.

Seriously? Biden?

I guess Kerry has lost all credibility.

If they want to send a liberal comic from the Senate, why not Al Franken?

Well, I suppose he does have experience. Not that he was funny, but he tried. Biden is funny but he ain't tryin' to be. All are truly a joke.
