-Hoot

[Catch22Dem]

1. Hugh Grant?

:evilgrin:

[Zen Democrat]

2. Hi Hugh

[tk2kewl]

3. who is Hugh?

:shrug:

[FrenchieCat]

8. He's not even an American citizen!

that Hugh Grant. Plus he was caught with a prostitute. Ain't gonna happen.

[GetTheRightVote]

4. What, no way could this happen, got any links ??

:kick:

[Lex]

5. It was on Jon Stewart's TV show

and Biden was just speculating that he'd be happy to run with McCain.

I say :puke: to both of 'em.

IMHO.

[AndreaCG]

19. Fucking moron

Why doesn't he just defect?

You know McCain is laughing his ass off.

[sunnystarr]

41. Which one of them is gonna switch parties? lol

and even if one did it would never happen cause neither party would allow it.

[Al-CIAda]

26. My sentiments as well. Biden the appeaser/co-conspirator. nt

[Zen Democrat]

7. Really he said he's be proud to run with McCain on The Daily Show

Nuff said.

[Skidmore]

21. Well, Joe, it's time to change your party affiliation then

and formally become the Republican you are.

[DanCa]

6. Gotta watch the replay (nt)

[Teaser]

9. Someone hit joe...

he's skipping tracks again.

[Plausible]

10. Disgusting

Why doesnt Biden just run as a Republican.

[halobeam]

11. OMG.... the world has gone mad.

[Pithy Cherub]

13. No just Biden, he thinks we want to go

on his long boring acid trip with him...blech! What a rube!

[metrodorus]

12. I won't work for a ticket with McCain on it...

I'd rather vote for Nader, frankly.

McCain is very right wing in his politics. Just the fact he has had issues with Bush doesn't make him acceptable to me...

[halobeam]

17. If McCain had a conscience then it wouldn't make him acceptable to himself

But "the hug" literally is nauseating in all it's "whorish" glory.

[kwolf68]

20. Isnt McCain

Pro Choice? and doesn't he respect the separation of church and state? And isn't he working with Democrats to try to curb global warming?

Im not a McCain apologist, but is he THAT horrific or have I simply misread some of his viewpoints>?

[xkenx]

25. McCain pro-choice? I Think Not

Other than an occasional show of decency, McCain is nothing more than a standard 2005 Rethuglican. And one who is willing to suck up to the Bush crowd who slimed him so badly in the past. I have lost all respect for the man.

[PassingFair]

27. Maybe you missed this!

Biden will have his work cut out for him, he will have to separate these two with a crowbar! :)

[FreeStateDemocrat]

32. Watch the left hand McCain, bad enough sniffing "Idiots" arm pit!

[PassingFair]

34. Yeah, it's photo-shopped, but

it serves to illustrate the "relationship".

[xkenx]

28. NOT SINCE BOBBY KENNEDY

kwolf 68, that looks like an RFK photo on your post. Not since Bobby Kennedy have I been so inspired by a public figure as I have been inspired by Wesley Clark. Finally a caring compassionate progressive who has the toughness, smarts, leadership background, and ability to inspire to take on the Rethugs in the Red states.
Even mentioning Biden the showboat sellout and RW suckup Mc
cain makes my stomach turn.

[KoKo]

14. Biden is working to bring the Red and Blue States together. He wants

to bring unity to the country. He helped give us Clarence Thomas and look at how helpful that has been for party unity. :D One has to think about that carefully.

[hootinholler]

16. I'm just really liking the admission that

They're in bed with each other. I mean McCain isn't really a Republican and Biden isn't really a Democrat. A match made in heaven, or somewhere

:evilgrin:

-Hoot

[bvar22]

15. That's all we need.

A REAL Republican ticket for 2008, why hide it anymore?

This man is insane and completely removed from the reality of the Working American to even suggest this obscinity.

[halobeam]

18. And THAT my friend is what make him specially qualified to

be the "new" Republican lite.

[Greybnk48]

22. He lost my vote with McCain

I will never support a ticket with McCain on it after his smootchie session with *. The man has no character or integrity--period. He's a fucking crowd-pleaser. If that's the ticket, I'll stay home on election day, as will the rest of my family.

[hootinholler]

23. Did you mean to imply that Biden would otherwise be acceptable? n/t

[Greybnk48]

33. not sure

I don't hate Biden like some do here. He would not be my first choice, but I would at least vote for him if he were the candidate. Never McCain.

[karynnj]

24. I didn't see it, but it seems more likely a joke at Kerry's expense

as he at least considered the idea as a way to heal a split country, although he and McCain concluded it couldn't work

[The Night Owl]

29. The Rug and the Doormat... Nice combo.

[Vickers]

30. Of all the qualified people in America, why on Earth would you vote for

Biden?

The McCain angle just makes it even MORE stupid.

[Chicago Democrat]

31. You like big credit card and insurance companies?

You like to have a Democrat that sells out the Democratic Party every time he can. Biden's only accomplishment is that he is less hated than Lieberman.

[Beaverhausen]

35. I think it would be an unbeatable ticket. McCain would have to switch...

parties, of course.

I thought Joe did a great job last night.

But what about Rob Corddry's spot about Bush? There must be a thread about that somewhere around here...

[xxqqqzme]

37. TDS was exceptional

last night - The bolton getting booed thing was on the mark as well as Jon making fun of cuckoo bananas & lieberman. biden was fine until the mccain remark.

[Armstead]

36. Do you live in upstate NY?

There's an obnoxious car salesman on TV ads in the Capital District who says his deals are "Huuuugggggeeee!"

Was that what inspired the use of that phrase?

[hootinholler]

40. Nah, its a creeping freeperism n/t

[sunnystarr]

42. Are you saying that Du'ers don't know that

expression ... This is HUGE! That's HUGE! Shit how HUGE! FUck, now THAT's HUGE! and various versions ... ?

[Gregorian]

38. America is too stupid to be liberal.

I expect this is going to be the way things go. Sorry, but the first thing I thought when I saw Biden on TDS was that the new America will be shifting yet more to the right.
My prediction is America will shift to the right until people hurt. You see, Republicans don't care what's in their rear view mirror. Just make dust, who cares who's in it. It's behind them. But when the pain hits home, they'll be forced to change. It'll be too late. It'll be like Brazil. You see, there isn't much we can do when someone lights our house on fire.

39. Biden

I not an expert on Biden, but I do remember him and Kennedy being the real bulldogs when there were confirmation hearings. Those two would just put on the heat and really go after people (like Justice Rehnquist). Biden seems human to me. :hippie:

[hootinholler]

43. Ya know, that's the thing.

I just can't figure out Biden. He does things like you mention and then champions things like the Bakruptcy Bill.

He's either schizo, or genius. My money is on sending him lithium.
