Joe Biden entertains America with another clueless statement:
“Vice President Biden, on a conference call Monday with reporters, claimed that the planned Hudson River tunnel between New Jersey and Midtown Manhattan would provide a much-anticipated route for automobiles.
Problem is, it’s for trains!
The $8.7 billion tunnel is among the largest new projects to be funded in the Obama administration’s $787 billion stimulus package.
“Look, this is designed, this totally new tunnel, is designed to provide for automobile traffic,” Biden said, according to The Record of Bergen County. “It’s something, as you know, up your way, that’s been in the works and people have been clamoring for for a long time.” Atta Boy Joe!
00Spy: Vice President Joe Biden, well-known for his verbal gaffes, may have finally outdone himself, divulging potentially classified information meant to save the life of a sitting vice president.
According to a report, while recently attending the Gridiron Club dinner in Washington, an annual event where powerful politicians and media elite get a chance to cozy up to one another, Biden told his dinnermates about the existence of a secret bunker under the old U.S. Naval Observatory, which is now the home of the vice president.
The bunker is believed to be the secure, undisclosed location former Vice President****Cheney remained under protection in secret after the 9/11 attacks.
Is VP Joe Biden a Republican mole? Is Joe Biden single handedly trying to destroy not only the Obama administration but also the United States of America. Or is VP Joe Biden just numbskull?
I am not American, nor live in the US, therefore I try to steer clear from the political threads specially if they had to do with the new elected President Obama. But after reading this, OMG...
What will come out if we put together Brittney Spears with VP Biden in the same TV Show, interviewed by Letterman? (after the Letterman fiasco with Palin's daughters)

Well cars can use it too, it would just be a really bumpy ride..
Joe did it again... “We know some of this money is going to be wasted,” Biden said during a roundtable discussion in New York with business leaders aimed at promoting the two-year stimulus plan…
“There are going to be mistakes made,” said Biden. “Some people are being scammed already.”
“Our credibility depends on transparency” for how taxpayers dollars are used, he added.
President Barack Obama placed Biden in charge of supervising implementation of the stimulus to underscore his promise of strict oversight of the package, which is aimed at creating or saving 3 million to 4 million jobs. So Joe admits he can't do his job. Actually Joe is keping us al entertained and for Joe, tht is Job # 1!
Know what bugged me about this?
No one there asked Biden any follow up questions. It is like....
Yep.....we knew that there would be massive scamming of the stimulus funds. Yep.....we knew that mistakes would be made. Yep.....we knew money was going to be wasted.
Talk about brain dead.
Here they (business leaders) are there to promote the stimulus packages/program....they hear money is leaking out it.....and no one asks any of the how, where, and who questions? Letting Biden off the accountablity hook that every business man has.
If this had been one of their company managers....he was saying 'we wasted money', 'some was scammed', and 'mistakes were made'....I guarrantee you questions would have been asked.
Joe gave us another show on Sunday... Joe gave his weekly foot in mouth conference yesterday.
Speaking of the Obama Administration he said " Everyone guessed wrong on the stimulus plan." "Guessed... Guessed? Joe God love you but you are guessing on National Policy.
Change the Constitution, call an election get these guessing clowns out of office!
But leave Joe... He is far too much fun to get rid of.

Aint' say it again Joe something??
Here is man that could not make the Presidency on his own merits and abilities....that rides the shirt tails of Barack Obama into the VP office. Then gets empowered with managing the two stimulus plans of the country......likely the key funding projects of recent times.....
First saying...."we have scamming going on"
Now saying..... "we guessed wrong."
What confidence, Joe has given us....that the Obama administration is acting in the American public's best interest.
First we are "scammed"....then we got it "wrong".
Joe, read the oath of office sometime.....To protect the Constitution of the United States and the country against all foreign and domestic enemies......
Could it be that China, a major foreign power, owning $767b in US T-Bills is a threat to this country? Could it be that a American economy the is tanking is a threat to this country? Could it be that the leadership that is "letting scamming and error" in Washington is a threat to this country?
Joe even you can answer simple yes and no questions. Answer the first 2 of those three with yes......and then third needs to be a yes as well.
I think Obama gave Joe a lobotomy last week. Joe has been eerily quiet the past week. Look for an explosion of "Stupid Joe Tricks" very soon.... In the meantime how about these Golden Oldies;
* Biden on Meet the Press in 2007, on Hussein’s WMDs: “Well, the point is, it turned out they didn’t, but everyone in the world thought he had them. The weapons inspectors said he had them. He catalogued — they catalogued them. This was not some, some Cheney, you know, pipe dream. This was, in fact, catalogued.”
So there were WMD's according to Joe.
* Biden on Meet the Press, April 29, 2007: “The threat [Saddam Hussein] presented was that, if Saddam was left unfettered, which I said during that period, for the next five years with sanctions lifted and billions of dollars into his coffers, then I believed he had the ability to acquire a tactical nuclear weapon — not by building it, by purchasing it. I also believed he was a threat in that he was — every single solitary U.N. resolution which he agreed to abide by, which was the equivalent of a peace agreement at the United Nations, after he got out of — after we kicked him out of Kuwait, he was violating. Now, the rules of the road either mean something or they don’t. The international community says “We’re going to enforce the sanctions we placed” or not. And what was the international community doing? The international community was weakening. They were pulling away.”
Sounding mighty Republican Joe.
* Biden in October of 2002: “We must be clear with the American people that we are committing to Iraq for the long haul; not just the day after, but the decade after.”
So why all the fuss about Obama pulling out?
* On Meet the Press, January 7, 2007, assessing the proposal of a surge of troops to Iraq: “If he surges another 20, 30, or whatever number he’s going to, into Baghdad, it’ll be a tragic mistake, in my view, but, as a practical matter, there’s no way to say, ‘Mr. President, stop.’”

One thing you have to give President Obama thanks for.....is keeping VP Biden's fingers out of Iran......if Jumpin Joe Biden got into this one.....the US would be sending troops into Iran for the next 100 years.

00Spy: Wow, you figured that out all by yourself....
But don't be so sure today Biden admitted to being the mastermind behind the Kennedy Assassination, the rise of Bin Laden and to being the Executive Producer of the Oprah Winfry show.
The man is diabolical in his plot to destroy the US and his reach knows no boundaries.
What happened to the good ol days when all we had to worry about was Al Gore and how he created the internet and the book "Love Story".
I FINALLY found something Obama has done that makes sense: by appointing Biden as his VP, the Walking Gaffe looks so foolish that it manages to make even Obama look "good" by comparison.
"Look, John’s last-minute economic plan does nothing to tackle the number-one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three-letter word: jobs. J-O-B-S, jobs."
