Yuk-Yuk
Jokester Vice President Joe Biden joked to wounded soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center about Connecticut Democrat Richard Blumenthal’s Vietnam lies.
The Hill reported:
Vice President Joe Biden on Wednesday took an unexpected dig at Democratic Senate candidate Richard Blumenthal for misstating his military service record.
While speaking at a barbecue for wounded soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, he commented about veterans coming home from the Vietnam War. Biden, who has a penchant for being loquacious, veered into the Connecticut Senate race.
“I didn’t serve in Vietnam. I don’t want to make a Blumenthal mistake here,” he said according to a pool report. “Our attorney general from Connecticut, God love him.”
Later he said “I have a bad habit of saying exactly what I think.”
Blumenthal became the brunt of Republican criticism after The New York Times reported he misstated his service record during the Vietnam War on several occasions.

“Chuck, stand up. Let’s all stand up for Chuck. Lord luv ya!” (Biden to the guy in the wheelchair. That should have been the end of the Obama/Biden campaign.)

…………….
Bad habit of plagerizing, too.
And the media has a bad habit of covering his lying butt:
“Biden, who has a penchant for being loquacious …” and “… Blumenthal became the brunt of Republican criticism after The New York Times reported he misstated his service record during the Vietnam War on several occasions.”
Soothing, disingenuous phrasing, softening the hard edges … no bigga deal.. and don’t forget the “messaging” that it’s “misstated” instead of “lied” and “Republican criticism” to advertise it should be discounted, dismissed as partisan politics, not a total, despicable fail on Blumenthal’s part.

I think Joe is so excited that Obummer will only be a one termer, that he can hardly contain himself…….he disagreed with him durning the primaries, as dumb as Joe is Obummer is dummer. I think he just wants to get out of it.
wanumba commented:
“fail” is too generous a word. It should be despicable “deceit” on Blumenthal’s part.
David Spence commented:
“Uh, uh, Chuck Graham, state senator, is here. Stand up, Chuck. Let ‘em see you. Oh, God love you. What am I talking about? I tell you what, you’re making everybody else stand up, though, pal. I tell you what, stand up for Chuck.”
The man is a walking malaprop.
azgal602 commented:
Only politicians mispeak, the rest of the US lie, fib, etc. I hope Blumenthal goes down. How do you lie about something like that………what a slime ball.
Highlander commented:
Face it Joe, you don’t have a bad habit of saying what you think. You have a bad habit of saying without thinking at all.

I will give the crazy old coot this much, at least he visted our country’s wounded soldiers.
gus commented:
Yes Mark, but he can’t even visit wounded soldiers without making an ass of himself.
Little Orenthal commented:
As a medical doctor, I recommend … I mean, I mispoke. The ‘Mispoke’ excuse….. the lowest form of sophistry ever. We as humans should laugh out freaking loud if we ever hear someone play language jeopardy with us. Seriously how lame are journalists?
“uhh sorry ma’am, my hand made a misjudgement as to were it may or may not have touched you”

Really? He thinks? Since when?
Highlander commented:
Biden is a fool, no doubt. Still, I ‘d rather have a fool as President than a knave – which is what Obama is.
PCM commented:
Biden has the IQ of a house plant and the personality of a cocker spaniel.

Joe can’t help it. Something is loose up there, and I am only half kidding.

AuntieMadder commented:
How did a man with such a wet brain get reelected to the Senate as many times as he did? And get as close to the candidacy for POTUS as he did? It’s amazing the losers we, the people, have elected and reelected to represent us. Do we do this because we see ourselves as losers, too?
