Biden: It's easy being VP By: Patrick Gavin February 25, 2010 04:26 PM EST
There have been some tense moments during today's health care summit at Blair House, but not for Vice President Joe Biden, it seems.
Just moments before the afternoon session got under way, C-SPAN's cameras picked up audio of Biden chatting casually with participants.
"It's easy being vice president you don't have to do anything."
Whoever Biden was chatting with said, "It's like being the grandpa and not the parent."
"Yeah, that's it!" replied Biden.

Joe Biden, the gift that keeps on giving. Dumb as a bucket of rocks doesn’t even begin to convey what a dumb ass this guy really is
To: Sub-Driver
You don’t have to think either! That’s why he’s perfect for the job.

"It's easy being vice president you don't have to do anything." I guess that's why there is so much waste and corruption in the "stimulus" money after Obama put Biden in charge and said "nothing gets past Sheriff Joe". Well, Sheriff Joe is asleep at the wheel. Biden is Obama's Barney Fife...sadly Obama doesn't have the sense of Sheriff Andy Taylor...he didn't insist that Biden keep his bullet in his shirt pocket.

Joe Biden--the return of the Alexander Throttlebottom model of the Vice Presidency.
He does the least harm when he does nothing at all.
To: Sub-Driver
Plugs made the gaff alright but - the MSM focus will be on Grassley picking a nice sized booger out of his nose and, more importantly, where he put it before the President sat down.

Choppers, what else is new?
You haven't done anything while sucking off the public's teet for decades. In return we the taxpayers get to subsidize your sweet pension and full benefits until the end of days.

Not only that, but remember when they said Biden was a "governing pick" - meaning that he wasn't supposed to add votes to the campaign so much as leadership to the administration.
To: Sub-Driver
Yet he makes it look so hard.

The fact is, Stand Up Joe spoke a basic truth, his only Constitutional duties are to preside over the Senate, vote in the event of a tie, or succeed the President in the event of death, disability or impeachment.
So far, it appears that he’s done an ok job presiding over the Senate, I’m still hoping we get to see how he does with those other yet-to-be-assumed responsibilities, lol

Obama does make him brush his teeth vigorously three times a day with tough actin Tinactin to keep the foot odor from his mouth at a minimum.
To: Sub-Driver
He’s the ONLY reason some pray for Obama’s health and safety.

A heartbeat from being the most powerful man on the planet.
The libs, racists and 98% of the blacks gave us an idiot.
The terrorists are fools for not attacking us, in a very big way, right now.

This sounds like the Peter Principle in action. Biden has clearly been elevated to his level of incompetence.

At least Joe does not hate his country.
To: Sub-Driver
Biden will NOT be Obama’s running mate in 2012. Bet on it...
