Vice President Joe Biden jokingly described his job as a “bitch” during an event on Thursday at the Harvard Institute of Politics, according to The Washington Post.
“Isn’t it a bitch, I mean … that vice president thing?” Biden said, drawing laughter from the crowd. “I’m joking. I’m joking. I’m joking. The best decision I ever made.”
Biden is known for often making verbal gaffes, perhaps his most famous coming when he was caught on an open mic telling President Obama that passage of the Affordable Care Act was a “big fucking deal.” Biden later said he was “embarrassed as hell” about it.
Good Lord…the story could just as easily have said, “Biden is known for speaking often and putting people at ease with humor one might expect from a Dad.”
Wouldn’t it seem odd if every HRC story mentioned her Bosnia airstrip gaffe or her McCain approach to Syria?
Crazy uncle Joe uncle says the darnedest things. You have to be careful where you invite him, but we still love him.
I’d rather have Vice President Biden saying his job is a bitch as opposed to Cheney who told a Senator to go fuck himself.
Bravo! Besides, there is a place for a little refreshing honesty in politics.
Its not a gaffe, its a feature.
