not sure if many of you guys are familiar with joe biden and his semi-hilarious past as a politician. he ran for president in 1988 but quit during the campaign after it became public that he plagiarized an entire speech from a british politician. he has somehow still managed to be in congress for over 25 years ("change"?), and along the way, become vice president of this country and officially the biggest gaffe machine the united states has ever seen. its fitting that his latest brilliant comment come less than twelve hours ago, when he said at a town hall meeting, "we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt." (link below) just take a deep breathe and let that one settle in for a bit. and while your brain tries to comprehend the incomprehensible, here's some great gaffe footage of biden and his boss. (after consulting with myself, the winner of the 2009 paulitics of america most epic gaffe goes to obama's asthma healthcare diatribe):
""I look upon an increase of the power of the state with the greatest fear, because although while apparently doing good by minimizing exploitation, it does the greatest harm to mankind by destroying individuality, which lies at the root of all progress."
