Palin was a horrible pick, that's for sure

Here is the ole' dunderhead's latest....
There have been some tense moments during today's health care summit at the Blair House, but not for Vice President Joe Biden, it seems.
Just moments before the afternoon session got underway, C-SPAN's cameras picked up audio of Biden chatting casually with participants.
"It's easy being vice president — you don't have to do anything."
Whomever Biden was chatting with said, "It's like being the grandpa and not the parent."
"Yeah, that's it!" replied Biden.
I have no problem with the Dems sticking grampa in the basement where he can't do any harm. This fool is tragic.

Actually, this is the latest. Made moments after the inane statement above......
Vice President Biden: "I’m always reluctant after being here 37 years to tell people what the American people think. I think it requires a little bit of humility to be able to know what the American people think, and I don’t, I can’t swear I do. I know what I think. I think I know what they think. But I’m not sure what they think. And the second point I’d make is…"
Just keep talkin' Joe!

Biden has a sense of humor, and you see this as a fault...so sad.
Easy to be the VP? I saw the tape (on FOX of course) and it was clear he was just joking and talking casually with someone. From what I read Biden has been really engaged as a foreign policy advisor.

Whichever party you root (soapbox) for, they are all really doing us a disservice. What would the guys that authored the Constitution and fought British rule say today if they saw how effed up things were? Were are the people of principle today?
Why is it that only a low 60% of Americans (working age adults) pay taxes and 40% don't? Why do 60% of Americans pay the lion's share of the nut? Why do I bust my a$$ in two jobs trying to make things better for my family and I have to pay to make someone elses' life better too?
I'm just in a really pi$$y mood because after doing two shows and a couple server installs next month I will finally have enough time to do my taxes. Time to start another thread.

which is the entire premise of the tea party movement, but voice your concerns and you'll be labeled an anti-govt looney who wants to hoard all your evil $ like you did under Bush.

The $600 per couple Obama tax credit removed a lot of tax liability, particularly for people in the 15% bracket...
