Joe Biden didn't let Rep. Jimmy Gomez leave the room just because his six-month old got fussy during the president's speech marking the 13th anniversary of the passage of the Affordable Care Act.
After his remarks on Thursday, Biden soothed the California Democrat's baby – putting their heads together as photographers snapped images.
The baby Hodge started to cry during Biden's speech, prompting Rep. Gomez, 48, to get up from his chair and start to leave the room. But Biden called out to the lawmaker with a baby strapped to his chest.
'That's alright, we like babies – you don't have to worry about it. It's OK, it's alright,' the president reassured.
'Matter of fact, I like babies better than people,' he added to laughter from the friendly crowd gathered at the White House on Thursday afternoon
Historically, presidential candidates shake hands and kiss babies' heads when vying for office. The interaction on Thursday led some in the room to joke that it's a sign Biden is running for reelection in 2024 – even though he has not yet announced a bid.
The event marked the 13th anniversary of former President Barack Obama passing his keystone achievement– the Affordable Care Act.
Before jetting off to Canada for his first official visit to America's northern neighbor on Thursday, Biden helped celebrate the law in which he helped craft as vice president.
Gomez's six-month-old Hodge was one of the attendees for Biden's remarks.

Creep: Biden the Hair-Sniffing Pedo (Radiohead Parody) | Louder With Crowder
Biden, for all of his creepiness, does well in dealing with this particular instance. Make no mistake, I must repent of the sins I commit every day as I curse him and plan his demise. This reminds me of the time I was a member of a church body where not only the pastor would have reacted the same but most of the congregation would have echoed the same sentiment. Most likely, several women would have offered to hold my fussy baby.(Sometimes babies respond to a new face and voice and it settles them down). To be totally welcomed and accepted within a church is a taste of what heaven must surely be like.
What is Baby Hell?
Being nuzzled by some old, stinky politician before a bunch of cameras.
...but that doesn’t extend to babies who happen to be his illegitimate grandchildren.
The Resident Combover and Creep strikes out again.
I’m guessing representative Gomez thought that he would bring some positive experience to his 6 month old baby by dragging him into a room full of creepy people. 6-month-olds don’t retain a lot and aren’t really cognizant of where they’re at and the importance thereof or the creepiness thereof. Babies just want to eat, s***, and sleep and suck up sensations.
I understand what he meant. I like babies more than most people. But, I don’t advocate killing them.
Biden is not much of a Catholic, or much of a leader.
I agree, Biden handled this well. He’s still a commie putz, but he got one right.
I wouldn’t let my baby within 1000 yards of him!

Did anyone else think this was written really weirdly?
I went back and realized the author went out of their way to avoid using the terms “boy”, “girl”, “son”, and/or “daughter “.
Is that the reason he promotes the murder of millions of babies annually?
“Get in my belly!”
Obviously not. I gave my 2 cents worth. Not arguing with you over a surprizing old memory of how good some people can be. Sorry it troubled you.

Named their baby after a character on the TV show The Adams Family. Interesting.
