Does Joe Biden suffer from Dementia?

[What the Heck]

I'm just saying.

- He talks about Roosevelt's presidency of the late 1920's
- He talks about that Roosevelt presidency talking on the TV
- He talks about having a meal in a restaurant that doesn't exist
- He doesn't remember comments he made while in a recent stop (in an extremely condescending tone)
- He thinks he has power to say yes or no on campaign issues, such as tv ads
- He thinks that if McCain is elected then our relations with Russia will "literally, literally, literally beyond our control for the better part of a generation" (notice his using the same word over and over - did he forget he had used it before?)
- He can't tell the difference between gunshots fired at him and snow flakes
- He can't remember that he is against coal, but calls himself a "hard coal miner"
- He can't tell the difference between a Battalion and a Brigade
- He can't tell the difference between a Govornor and a Lieutenant Governor

I don't know. Sounds like he may have lost it. And this is the experience from the Democratic ticket?

All of that and he still made the governor of alaska look like a rank amateur, who gets to play candidate for a few weeks, she needs to go back to alaska, enroll in graduate school, take some constitutional law classes, and spend some time reading A newspaper, and then she MAY have a chance to run for senate!!!.......less then 4 weeks until "that one"!!!!!

 

[bsnyder]

You forgot a few, from the VP debate:

He doesn't remember the Constitution very well, and thinks Article I deals with the executive branch, instead of the legislative branch

He thinks the U.S., along with France, kicked Hezbollah out of Lebanon - this isn't even a question of him getting mixed up, because it never happened. (maybe he dreamed it?)

You forgot one!

Joe Biden said on 9/10 that Hillary Clinton "might have been a better pick than me" to be Barack Obama's running mate.

There are 2 Senators per state and only 1 Governor.
There are 100 Senators (plus the VP) that discuss and vote on issues. So, an individual senator's vote is only worth 1/100 (or 1/101).
A Governor is the CEO of the state. Makes the decisions. The buck stops there.

Perhaps some people would be wise to take some government classes before they cast dispersions about someone they know very little about. Maybe read a newspaper. before they get to play political pundit.

I'll take the governor of the largest state over some half-term senator with no executive experience except a community organizer job that a terrorist got for him.

Just sayin'

[Uncle Remus]

After referring to the various proposals that comprise his domestic policy agenda, John McCain offered an absolute head-scratcher of a line during a campaign speech on Wednesday.

"Across this country this is the agenda I have set before my fellow prisoners," he declared. In the prepared remarks he was supposed to say "fellow citizens."

So how come some of yours show Obama gaffes? Kinda makes it look like both of them should share the same room in a dementia unit.

Then one you listed was a question about what Michelle Obama's issue might be. Why is that a wild one? First lady's have worked on issues for hundreds of years.

And the one on the Obama salute - I'm sorry, that one was just .

It is interesting you had to go as far back as May to find this many.

Of course not. All of Biden's mistakes are "intelligent mistakes". Ones that are easily glossed over because of the brilliant mind we all know is hidden behind that non-moving forehead (watch it sometime, it is hyponotic....it just sits there.....like stone.....).

Only female Governors from Alaska make dumb mistakes. It must be all the Meeses wandering around..........or oh, we all know how girls can be.......

Hope the above explanation helped Comrades.


This has been a courtesy post from "Media Mavens for Obama 2008". Catch us on any channel on Cable except for Fox News whenever Brit Hume is on (we are still trying to figure out which political party he belongs to).

 

[Planogirl]

Better a possible future VP making speaking mistakes than a current President or a possible future one (McCain).

Anyway, this "your candidate is dumber than my candidate" stuff is so pointless. It would be nice to hear someone make a case for McCain but I guess that's impossible.

 

[tasha99]

They're gaffes. People make them, especially when they're under a microscope. Imagine someone following you with a camera all the time--do you never do or say anything stupid?

 

[rentayenta]

No, I don't think Biden has dementia but wishful thinking on your part OP. FYI I have dx McCain with a 290.43

Do we really want to compare the Obama/McCain gaffes? I'm just wondering where the other 8 states are (I've been to 57 with one more to go).

My point is for every gaffe Sarah Palin has, Joe Biden makes 3. When was Biden lampooned last on SNL? When was the last gaffe from Biden you heard about the next day or even the next week? When was the last time a "gaffe" was taken out of context from Biden, reworded, and still quoted weeks later from an SNL skit as if he had said it?

Maybe they just don't have anyone that looks like Biden?

Seriously, does it really matter what SNL does? Does anyone really watch that show any more?
