There are many contenders for the Most Preposterousest Right-Wing Response to the Other Night's Twerp-Drubbing. But let us proceed with this comical Chicago Boyz post, because it is light and diverting, and the comments are the shit.
A clownish Joe Biden mugged, groaned and interrupted Paul Ryan for 90 minutes last night. It was an odd spectacle but, apparently, just what the Democrats wanted.
Sounds like someone's pantaloons have been properly tit-willowed, or else his monocle got caught in his dickey. What what!
He lied about the Libya story and now Bill and Hillary Clinton may be thinking rebellion.
A link to an exclusive Daily Caller interview with Ed Klein! How convincing! Careful, lads, we are here dealing with Highbrow University of Chicago Smart Ones -- they know how to find lazy links in aggregators!
If Hillary thinks she sees the bus coming, she may jump ship and it won’t be pretty.
And... wait. If you see a bus coming, why would you jump off a ship? If you are at sea, a ship enjoys significant advantages over a bus, I should imagine. And if you are on land and on a ship, and a bus is approaching, well, that is an unusual situation, but why would you jump? These are Deep Mysteries.
Biden also lied about Iran and their nuclear ambitions. He dismissed the danger of doing nothing. He said they do not have a “delivery system.” They have a delivery system named Hezbollah.
Hezbollah has ballistic missiles!
Oh wait:
If Iran were to choose to attack the US, a container ship and a US port are much more likely to be involved than a new missile.
Also, Iran may have leprechauns. This was after all exactly why we had a Cold War -- the USA had missiles with nuclear warheads, and the USSR had nuclear weapons, container ships, and leprechauns.
Certainly, Israel is within reach as are the countries of Europe.
They are fucking not. Iran can't build missile sites without the world knowing.
Iran is ruled by a sect of suicidal maniacs.
When your foreign policy is "under any plausible scenario, your opponent deeply desires to be destroyed by nuclear missiles," you are a knee-biting cretin.
There are other howlers; "The “$Five trillion tax cut” has been thoroughly debunked," missing the whole point, that you can get to whatever number you want if you don't feel obligated to explain what the numbers mean, which is why Ryan ran away bravely when Biden brought up the mortgage deduction.
But this is good:
So, here is a lefty who wants to raise taxes on investment income and capital gains. I don’t see enough responses pointing out that this income has already been taxed as ordinary income. Mitt Romney and most investors had salary income, taxed at the rates of the time, which they saved and invested. The capital gains and dividend income is income that was already taxed once. The left simply does not understand this.
Pffft. No. Only chumps make money from salaries.
But here is the Fun.
Ryan kept his cool and Biden played the fool. Ann Althouse was impressed as I believe many women were impressed.
This is mansplaining taken to a whole new plane.
This is mAnnsplaining!
Defined as: "citing the utterly preposterous burblings of self-absorbed ninny Ann Althouse to pretend that as a pompous right wing gentleman, you may now Speak for All Women Everywhere."
MAS. Oh, the comments:
The debate was just plain wierd – and we could only bear to watch the first third of it. Biden came off like a pig, a rude and condescending pig.
"That Biden boy is a PIG! P-I-G Pig!" Food fight!
All I know is if this jerk were at a cocktail party you’d try to disengage yourself after the first 2 minutes.
AND Biden STEPPED on the BALL.
If Obama models himself on Biden I think Romney will give him a different kind of response. He had been through the ringer during the primaries and has encountered just about anything.
And... and... oh, just write your own damn jokes. Holy shite.
