Once every generation, we have a politician who comes along who makes gaffe after gaffe, and makes all prior political gaffe-makers look good by comparison.
That’s what Vice-President Biden is doing for former Vice-President Dan Quayle. That’s all I’m going to say on that topic.
In the latest gaffes, Biden was forced to call the leaders of the UAE and Egypt to apologize for suggesting that they were aiding the al-Qaeda spinoff group ISIS. The media seems to be having a field day with it; even the liberal press is jumping on it. It probably has something to do with a recent poll that suggests Democratic voters prefer Hillary Clinton as a presidential candidate over Joe Biden as a presidential contender by a HUGE margin---70% to 20% in some markets.
Biden really needs to stay away from the cameras and live mikes if he’s serious about a Presidential run. After this latest royal screw-up, he can’t make any more mistakes while he’s Vice-President.
Limbaugh is probably counting down the days to launching Operation Chaos II…getting Republicans to vote in Democratic primaries for Biden to derail Clinton. I think it’s going to happen.
For a senior politician, Biden isn’t helping the feeling that the Administration is running amateur hour through the Oval Office. He rivals Cheney in sheer arrogance, and doesn’t have the foresight to see what kind of damage his words cause.
God help us if Biden ever becomes President, either through the 25th Amendment, or if he is elected to his own term as President.
