A Good Old-Fashioned Foot-Shootin’

(We’re not trying to be breaking news reporters here, and honestly we find bloggers who think they are to be quite amusing, so if we comment late on something it’s because we have, um, lives.)
Biden, oh Biden…you are all that one could hope for. The practice of “political correctness” should be folded into all corners and shoved up the arse of the guy what invented it, but since it’s here, and apparently not going away any time soon, I’m happy to call you out when you poop all over it.
During a campaign event in Columbia, Missouri, Biden did not mention his Republican counterpart by name but said, “I hear all this talk about how the Republicans are going to work in dealing with parents who have both the joy … and the difficulty of raising a child who has a developmental disability, who were born with a birth defect.”
Biden’s support of stem cell research is at odds with the position taken by the Republicans’ vice presidential nominee, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, whose 5-month-old son, Trig, has Down syndrome.
You did know that, Joe, didn’t you? Your campaign handlers made sure you knew her youngest was one of those special needs kids, didn’t they? If they did, you totally look like a tool. And if they didn’t, you still totally look like a tool.
Obama, oh Obama…you are also all that one could hope for. And you gave us a two-fer!
“You can put lipstick on a pig,” he said as the crowd cheered. “It’s still a pig.”
“You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called change. It’s still gonna stink.”
*claps hands gleefully*
This, ladies and germs, is where the true lack of experience shows. At least in Obama’s case. Biden’s only excuse is plain old stupidity.
UPDATE: Ted tells me The Messiah is speaking now regarding the lipstick comment, and is blaming the hoorah on the media instead of apologizing for any misunderstanding. Would this be the same media who routinely tongue-bathes you, B? That very same media?
Well played, Anointed One, well played. *snerk*
