The Top Ten Bidenisms

#3 YOU SNEEZE, YOU LOSE “I wouldn’t go anywhere in confined places now. … When one person sneezes it goes all the way through the aircraft. That’s me. I would not be, at this point, if they had another way of transportation, suggesting they ride the subway.” –Joe Biden, providing handy tips to protect against the swine flu and freaking us out, “Today Show” interview, April 30, 2009

#5 SUPREME MEMORY LOSS “Am I doing this again? For the senior staff?

Biden is a boob!
I wish to show thanks to you just for bailing me out of this type of crisis. Because of checking through the search engines and getting notions which were not productive, I assumed my entire life was well over. Being alive minus the strategies to the problems you have fixed as a result of your website is a critical case, and ones which may have badly damaged my career if I hadn't noticed your blog. Your own skills and kindness in touching all areas was excellent. I don't know what I would have done if I had not come upon such a step like this. I am able to at this point relish my future. Thanks a lot very much for your reliable and effective help. I will not hesitate to refer the website to anyone who wants and needs guidelines on this problem.
