"Hey Joe, how's about a nice hot cup of shut-the-f*#k up?"

Joe Biden Takes Jab At Obama Over TelePrompter Use

When Obama's teleprompter failed, he poked fun at Obama, who's known for relying on teleprompters for his speeches.

"What am I going to tell the president? Tell him his teleprompter is broken? What will he do then?" Biden joked.

      Like I said, "Hey Joe, how's about a nice hot cup of shut-the-f*#k up?"

When Senator Obama picked Joe Biden to be his running mate, I guess he didn't anticipate Joe would be spending so much time "keeping it real". 

Obviously, he can't blame anyone but himself. He should have known better when Biden called him out on his lack of experience during the 2008 Democratic campaign.  After Biden made his profound "we can't afford on the job training" statement, when asked if Obama was qualified to run the country, you would have thought somebody, more importantly Obama, would have had some doubts about appointing him.

But what I don't get is how the media can praise Obama for being so "eloquent and articulate", while criticizing Biden for being the White House gaffe machine? 

Does Biden occasionally put his foot in his mouth? Sure he does, but he doesn't have the luxury of having a teleprompter telling him what to say each and every time he opens his mouth. Give Biden the teleprompter and let's see the President keep it real for a while. 

Could you imagine? Look what happened when Obama's teleprompter went rogue back on March 18th, when the Irish Prime Minister was giving a speech at the White House. During the PM's speech, Obama's speech started scrolling across the teleprompter screen. After reading a few lines of the speech- the President had just given- the Prime Minister turned to Obama and said "this is your speech". Obama scurried to the podeum to save the day and get this, he starts re-reading his speech but by then somebody had fixed the problem. 

Obama didn't even realize he was now reading the Prime Minister's speech until he got to the part where he thanked HIMSELF for coming! 

Who knows, maybe he did know what he was reading and just wanted to thank himself. My source at the White House said it isn't uncommon to come around a corner and catch the President kissing himself in a mirror. 

(This is the same source that broke the story on the choice of name for the White House dog. You may recall how Michelle and the girls were at a standoff with the President because the President wanted to name the dog Barack Obama. When the President wouldn't compromise they all settled on B.O.)
