Dear God In Heaven, take me now...........

[OldLeftieLawyer]

For some reason, the TV here was on and "Hardball" came on. I don't even APPROVE of this jerk, Matthews and never watch the show. It's a joke, and he's a jerk.

But, his guest is Biden, and I have to say, I've yet to hear anything dumber than his first question to Biden: "If you were President, how would you handle the Iranian matter?" (I paraphrase.)

What an utterly colossal useless exchange between two impaired egomaniacs. I'd really learn more by watching a blank white wall.

1. Are you wiping up the pewk right now?

[TomInTib]

2. But you have to admit..

Biden pretty much scorched rummy's and cheney's asses.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

5. He's fiftieth in line

on the Let's Gangbang The White House game, and I don't find that terribly heroic or impressive.

They're both duds.

3. A "let me hold my side" moment :

When asked if W will meet with Iran's leader, Biden said - no, because he's a crazy man. Did he mean W?

[MadMaddie]

7. He...He...Biden meant both....

He said something similar on the Bill Mahr show last week....

[OldLeftieLawyer]

9. The question should have been,

"Will the Iranian leader deign to meet with the Fuckface Squatter In The Oval Office?"

I daresay the Head Mullah would have had a good laugh at that one.

"Yeah, me meet with that deranged infidel. HA!"

[Stinky The Clown]

12. Biden talks a good talk ......

..... in fact, for pure oratory style, he's one of the best.

But sheesh .... has he EVER uttered one word without first sticking his wetted finger into the breeze?

He is utterly without a principled stance of any sort ... left, right, or middle. Hhe's a total and utter face-time whore.

[0007]

21. I like that expression, "Biden is a total and utter face-time whore."

LOL!!

[Stinky The Clown]

23. I'm here all week .......

.... and try the chicken divan. It's the best! :)

[0007]

26. Yummy yummy!

[MadMaddie]

4. I agree Biden is an ego whore...but when he was on Bill Mahr

last week and he actually gave a pretty damned good answer to that very question...he didn't hold back on the Repugs....

I think that he is too careful though...we need a Maverick that will run on the Dem ticket...and I just don't know if he is the one..

[eleny]

11. But he now just said we would unite Iranians against their leadership...

If we bombed them! Je-e-e-e-e-zus!!!!!!!!!! He said he guaranteed it.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

15. Great combination

In power AND insane.

Is there some kind of virus going around?

[Proud_Democratt]

18. A question...eleny

Where is your source for that statement. I'd like to read it.

[eleny]

20. It was Biden's answer to Chris M's last question to him

Catch it on the next replay of today's program or perhaps the text if it's on Hardball's site. Hope this helps.

[MadMaddie]

19. Did you hear that right.....what he said on Friday was

that most of the Iranian population consists of 18-25 year olds and are pro Western culture etc....and they are not that supportive of the religious Mullahs...

however; if the US attacks Iran those 18-25 year olds will unite and support their leadership and turn into one hell of a fighting million man and woman army....they will turn into anti-western fighters....

[eleny]

22. Oh crap! I thought it was that they would unite against their leadership!

Thank you very much for clarifying it. I'll try to find the text and be sure I get it right if I post anything about it again. :dunce:

[MadMaddie]

28. No Worries.....

:hi:

[wryter2000]

25. Never mind

Emily Latella moment

[eleny]

27. I've had worse like posting what I was sure I heard!

:hi:

[Proud_Democratt]

16. I like Biden...saw him on

Real Time With Bill Maher. I thought him to be intelligent, witty, and firm. His looks remind me of Roosevelt.

[Stinky The Clown]

6. They shall be known by the company they keep

Y'ever wonder where the Dems are? Why is it that, over time, all the teevee yakkers have every RW nut in the world on, but the only Dems are ...... who?

Joe I (Lieberman)

Joe II (Biden)

Diane

Joe I

Joe II

Diane

Joe I

Joe II

Diane

ad nauseum.

8. I don't watch Matthews either, he is detrimental for

my blood pressure, Biden is a close second. He so wants to sit in the WH.

[wtmusic]

10. Question from an impaired egomaniac...

I've heard many dumb questions out of Matthews, but this is not by far not worst. Why isn't it a fair question?

[OldLeftieLawyer]

14. Well, because

I don't give a fuck what Joe Biden would do if he were President, especially since he's NEVER going to be President.

What a waste of time - hypothetical questions to a political wannabe. What a WASTE OF TIME!

I'm not one who watches Matthews, and if this isn't his dumbest, I'm surely never going to watch again, believe me.

[Warpy]

13. Watching that stuff will make you go blind and hair

grow on your palms, just like, er, never mind.

People who haven't fried their brain cells on alcohol and/or drugs are staying away from those conservative circle jerks in greater numbers every day. The format of frothing conservatives versus tepid DLC Democrats has gotten old and stale and even conservative true believers who are looking for validation of wretchedly bad ideas are getting tied of it all.

The format serves the ruling class, though, so don't look for a change in the foreseeable future.

17. O.L.L., I don't want to bum you out any further at this point...BUT...

...realize that there's a "Biden For President" factor right HERE, on DU...I actually posted a response in a "Biden for President?" thread about a week ago. Reminded the O.P. of Biden voting for the bankruptcy bill. Reminded the O.P. of Biden's little soft-shoe dance with Condi Rice during her confirmation hearings ("I want you to know that I am going to vote for you, but first I must admonish you"). I reminded the O.P. that Biden loves to speak in vague metaphors and seems genuinely in love with the sound of his own voice (anyone remember his "You and I seem to be engaged in an intricate Kabuki dance" bullshit from the Roberts hearings?"

The end result? The O.P. still wanted Biden for President in '08 and said that he had "lesser sins than George W. Bush."

SO...O.L.L...when the 2008 Democratic Party nominations for President are final, and Biden's NOT on the list, then you'll hear the end of MOST of the "Biden for President" chatter.

Not ALL of it...when the field of candidates has been narrowed down and DOES NOT include Joe Biden, I GUARANTEE that SOMEONE will post a thread lamenting the fact that Joe Biden WILL NOT BE our President in 2008.

In the meantime, I feel your pain, and wonder what life must be like for Joe Biden to spend 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year with his head lodged tightly in his own sphincter.

Best regards,

24. Thank you very much

How kind of you to keep me informed, at the same time supporting my view. I do appreciate it.

How does Joe Biden, suckass extraordinaire, feel most of the time?

Like this, I suspect:
