Ryan Wins VP Debate - Was Biden Drinking?

By Joel Leyden
Israel News Agency

New York, New York --- October 12, 2012 ... Last night's US Presidential debate appeared to be between a serious, sober and articulate Congressman Paul Ryan and an intoxicated, out of control Vice President Joe Biden.

According to CNBC Congressman Paul Ryan buried VP Joe Biden by 56 percent to 36 percent.

Why was the spread so wide?

Biden, who is normally a good guy and would have made a much better President than Obama, appeared to have been either given bad advice by a media coach to be overly aggressive or may have been drinking before the actual debate. If he wasn't drinking, then it may have been one Valium too many.

As Ryan tried to respond to questions asked by moderator Martha Raddatz, as on cue, Biden would either interrupt or laugh as Ryan began to answer. Biden's laughing, smirks, gasps and eye-rolls became so obnoxious that it continued as Ryan was discussing Iran's lethal attempt to build a nuclear bomb.

Biden interrupted Ryan over 62 times.

Obama and Biden have been accused of ignoring requests and of an apparent coverup for increased security for US embassies abroad which resulted in the murder of US Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other embassy staff. Yet during the VP debate Joe Biden tried unsuccessfully to deflect this issue by claiming that Ryan had voted to cut security for the embassy. That was a sad and distorting lie. Ryan had actually requested federal cuts across the board but never itemized or earmarked embassy security as a budget cut.

Ryan stated that Obama's proposal to let tax rates rise for high-income individuals would tax about 53 percent of small-business income.

Ryan also noted that 20 million people are projected to lose their health insurance if Obamacare goes through.

On the issue of women's rights, Ryan made it clear that he is pro life but would authorize abortions in the event of rape, incest or if the mother was in physical danger.

On social media, Ryan was a clear winner.

In addition to Twitter’s outrage with Joe Biden’s laughter during the debate, Ryan, @PaulRyanVP, went from 382,789 followers prior to the debate to 393,255 followers after the debate. Biden, @JoeBiden, went from 195,990 followers prior to the debate to 205,834 followers after the debate.

The Facebook group Jews for Mitt Romney states that in contrast to Barack Obama and Joe Biden who cannot tell us where the capital of Israel is, wants Israel to return to indefensible 1967 borders and does not require red lines for Iran and it's building of a nuclear weapon, both Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan have declared that they are on the same page with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

On Netanyahu's recent visit to the UN, Obama ignored the Israeli Prime Minister's request to meet and instead gave an interview on a TV talk show in New York.

"I think Biden raises serious questions about his ability to be a heartbeat away from the president," said Fox News contributor Dick Morris. "His inappropriate conduct is glaring and will backfire with the American people. He had no dignity or presidentiality."

prior articles say biden interrupted over 80 times, and biden-asistant radditz interrupted ryan anywhere from 13-32 times depending on the article.

also it wouldn’t be valium, it’d be speed or crystal meth. valium would’ve slowed joe down.

Oh male sibling. Time for Jews to abandon liberalism; it’ll kill them as much as it’s killing us.

It appeared to me that Rimshot Joe was drunk. The joint went from being a VP debate to an Irish pub.

Israel has good reason to detest another Obama term as should the Jewish American people. I thought it was pretty eye-opening to hear Biden mock Iran's nuclear intentions and capabilities especially when he said repeatedly that even IF they got enough enriched uranium they had no missile or bomb in which to deliver it. He apparently doesn't consider Iran's allies that DO have such containers - Russia being the PRIMARY one - as well as the real possibility of a "dirty bomb" which would not need a sophisticated delivery system.

If Biden is supposed to be the "Foreign Policy" brains of the Obama Administration, we ALL have reason to be afraid. Biden needs to retire in January and I pray we never see or hear from Obama again after his crushing defeat.

I really think the disrespectable smirks were planned...even rehearsed, per Alinsky rule #5...

RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.

Of course it backfired gloriously.

It’s true that it is infuriating. It apparently infuriated America, females in particular from what I can gather.

Surprisingly, it did not infuriate Ryan, although I am sure on the inside he was pissed, but one could not detect that on the outside. He was a rock, I have to give him credit, he is a more measured man than me.

Does Biden and his handlers think we are idiots? I found these articles on Iran’s missile capabilities in about five minutes.

Iran has sworn to destroy us. Better not laugh it off.

MSM is turning itself inside out, yet again, for the Bitch Queen. This time it's to make sure Romney wins sot that Hillary can run against him in 2016. The moment she runs out the back door of State with the world on fire, she'll start hating Romney. Watch - four solid years are coming of Hillary running for president, attacking Romney, and distancing herself from Obama. All while the MSM shovels her real legacy down the memory hole, and drags the country back, back, back, back to them happening 60's yet again, and beat, beat, beat that dead, dead, dead horse over, and over, and over to try to shove Her Royal Fat Ass through that White House door at last.

That is, unless she can figure out a way to barge into the White House in 2012 - still, even now. And oh yeah, that is EXACTLY what is on her mind, right now. If she can find a crack, bitch be goin' for it - and dead ambassadors can go screw themselves.

Effective ridicule is not merely making faces.

1) there need be no concern about Hillary EVER. She is only going to get uglier and is already ugly as sin.

2) no way of replacing Obama at this time especially when she would come in neck deep in Libya and now, Yemen with a tangle of lies wrapped around her neck that even Bill couldn’t talk his way out of.

3) the media knows well that it is going to have to find a new, fresh face or the up-coming landslide is going to knock the RATs out of power for decades to come. They have no one up and coming. Who? Debbie Blabbermouth Schlutz?

There’s a limit to everything. Ridicule is a powerful tool, but I think you’re already off on the wrong foot if you think it is “man’s most potent weapon”.

Hillary Clinton is the most talentless female I have ever seen in my life.

She is a pure phony, a liar through and through, and a bore.

Everything she touches blows up in her face.

I expect that she will never attain the office of president no matter what happens.

Biden desperately tried to throw Ryan off balance and failed. Joe Biden made himself himself and Obama look as though this was just another Barnum and Bailey Circus act. Next time we must assist and provide them with red, plastic noses.

Paul Ryan was as cool as a cucumber. At one point he protested the harassment and America could not disagree. Ryan was not drinking nor taking any anti-anxiety pills. Ryan's closing statement shined and even more so after taking so much sh!t from Biden. His media coach deserves a raise.

Ryan is a guy you would want covering your back in a fire-fight!

One more snub for Israel. Biden kept calling him BeBe.

Mr. Biden you were on the National Stage last night, representing the United States of America.

Your disrespect for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was a very obvious snub, by calling him simply BeBe. He is not your best buddy, he is a Prime Minister of Israel and deserves that respect.

Mr. Biden you have the right to make a fool of yourself, any time any place, but you have no right to make a fool of the United States. Please cease and desist immediately, you fool and grow up.

As a person who spent half his life wrapped tightly around a bottle, I think I speak from authority when I say that Joe is so habituated to alcohol that it would be much harder for him to function sober.

I think the only time he’s not been drinking is for the first hour or two of each day after waking up. Apart from that, his life is one big W.C. Fields impersonation.
