Oh, Joey, Not Again!

Just when you start to think nothing can shock you about the way Joe Biden comports himself…

From the Boston Globe:

“When I went up, she said, ‘Joe,” Biden recalled of his meeting with Giffords. “I said, ‘Now we’re both members of the Cracked Head Club.’ You know, I had two craniotomies. For real. They literally took the top of my head off. Twice. Now, the wags in Delaware, when the second operation occurred, wrote and said, ‘Well, it’s because they couldn’t find a brain the first time!’”

“She and I just commiserated about the steps to recovery,” he added. “Hers, much more consequential. But it scares the living devil out of you when you’re recovering from a serious operation or injury to your head. But it comes back. And knowing people who’ve been through it and came back was helpful, for me anyway. You know what I mean?”

Is anyone surprised at this? Not news at all to me. What's frightening is that this guy is a heartbeat away from the Presidency. Cheney just had problems with his heart. THIS goes to job performance. One good thing from this, though: at least there's a good match between Obama and Biden in one way: intellectual capacity.

It was reported that Biden referred to the tea party people as TERRORISTS inside a recent Democrat meeting. It'll be interesting to see the reaction of some tea partiers here to that!!!!

I doubt the doctors found a rudimentary brain stem in Sen Flapjaw Airhead's skull.

Not shocked at all.

Apparently the 'wags in Delaware' were correct!
