Osama to His Operatives: Don't Bother Killing Joe Biden
By Robert Paul Reyes
"US officials have revealed that Osama bin Laden's diaries contain the rather startling conclusion that he didn't think Vice President Joe Biden was worth bumping off." Read More
Osama bin Laden wasn't blind to the nuances of American politics, he was well aware that the vice-presidency isn't worth a bucket of warm spit. John Nance Garner's famous quote has never been mentioned as often now that Biden occupies that worthless position.
Biden can take comfort knowing that al Qaeda isn't gunning for him, but it must be deflating to his ego that the whole world knows he occupies a ceremonial post.
When Biden falls asleep during a presidential speech nobody in the administration takes umbrage, Biden is simply doing what he does best.
Biden's true role in the Obama White House is that of court jester, his malapropisms, and nutty remarks keeps everyone in stitches.
We all have an uncle like Biden, he may be a doofus who doesn't know his rear end from his mouth, but he's basically harmless.
