Flubbing answers is kind of a calling card for Biden.

Better a mispronunciation than making up words.

Harping on Biden's mispronunciation is probably just a case of turnabout being fair play (retribution for the massive lampooning of GW's mumblemouth).

If by "making up words" you mean GW's "fabrication" (as you have described it) of WMDs, then assiduously hunting for them FORGETTING THAT THEY DIDN'T EXIST--now THAT is colossal stupidity.

By "making up words", I mean Nucular, misunderestimate and strategery.

Nice attempt at re-purposing my words though for a completely unrelated topic.

I apologize for over-re-purposing your words, but I sinceriously did not have a strategeristic re-purpose intentionerism. I appreciate that you did not go completely nucular in your purpositional response. Actually, I don't think it is worse to make up words than to mispronounce them. It shows ingenuity, and it's fun.

I'm on your side on this. My posts on WMDs in the past have supported the side that says they existed. In this case I was just having a bit of word play with JohnnyD. He has accused GW of "fabricating" the WMDs. Originally, this thread started with Biden being a dope. Then it got to Obama mispronouncing corps. Then JD implied that it was worse to make up words than it is to mispronounce them, referring to GW. I thought he meant the "fabrication" thing, so I answered with the irony of GW searching for something he "Knew," ("fabricated") didn't exist. The point being that he did believe they existed. I was a bit reluctant to answer you, since it is a bit off-topic, but I see the thread has evolved away from Biden's dopiness to economic recovery or lack of it--which is all conjecture. It was going to recover, as it always has, if left alone. The original economic debate was over saving the banking system. That was done, whether it needed it or not, under Bush. The Stimulus that occured under Obama seems to have been unnecessary for recovery, the debate being whether it speeds it up or slows it down. I'm on the side that it's Government overkill, hyper-meddling, and a retardant. Similar to what many economists say about FDR's policies actually lengthening the depression rather than solving it.

What's the point of what Bush did years ago?
Nothing you can do about the past, it's the present that counts.

Currently we have the country in the worst recession since the depression, 10% +or- unemployment, debt past our eyeballs, and terrorists threats that need solutions.
It's not even about Obama taking vacations, he's on the road
most every week ,not in the White House working on the solutions.

Its the hypocrisy. I though I read Bush took off 30% of the time he was in office. And if he wasn't on vac. so much, maybe he wouldn't have left office in the worse economic shape since the great depression (or maybe it would have been worse).

Two wrongs don't make a right, and imho, the crisis's we are facing now need the
full attention of our nation's leader.

Obama would say he's on the road precisely to work the solutions.

And technically speaking the recession is over. It looks as though the bank bailout under Bush and stimulus package under Obama have averted a much deeper decline in GDP and unemployment.

Let's hope the current trend sticks.

Obama may say that, but the solutions he seems to be working on, as he travels around,
seem to be political. Three trips to NJ, two to Va. to try and save governorships
and one to Ma. to save a senate seat have nothing to do with the nation's
problems.

Recession over?, debatable with 9.7% unemployment, continuing foreclosures, market dropping 7% within the last week and the threat of inflation pending.

and if you've noticed the trend, every time Obama shows up on a Friday to tout some "unexpected" good numbers on the economy..they get revised down starting on the following Monday....unemployment is lower because more people have given up, some temporary jobs were created and they reduced the number of available jobs that existed in figuring their math....presto chango...Change you can believe in?.....I've listened to scores of economists pontificate now and it's going to get much, much worse....heard a WSJ Financial Head describe Obama's handling of the economy and job creation as "some kind of Junior Achievement Project, he has no idea what he's doing".....yup

I thought Biden was really smart and provided the Foreign Policy experience that Obama lacked? Wasn't that what we were told during the Hopey Change Campaign?....maybe the biggest charade in history next to Global Warming....

I was driving through Middletown yesterday and noticed about 100 feet of new sidewalk at an intersection....just behind the sidewalk was a huge sign stating American Recovery and Reinvestment Act ....Putting America Back To Work....I laughed....
