The chemistry just sort of shoots off the screen, doesn’t it? We have no idea which 60 Minutes correspondent this is supposed to be — Morley Safer? Andy Rooney? — but she is clearly not very happy about this interview. Shouldn’t Joe Biden get one of the young, wacky 60 Minutes reporters? A guy named “Steve” or something? [Daily IQ]

Im no behavioral analyst ,but its quite clear that Lesley Stahl’s wants to reverse cowgirl the Obiden.

2druk2phluq April 28, 2009 at 1:30 am

I think she’s Stahled out. Give her some more juice! We can try to push start her.

Oh goodness, I think I found the problem. She’s got cobwebs in the meat curtains. No wonder…

She’s still jealous that silly Katie got all that press with her Palin interviews and she said to herself, “I’ll show that bitch. I’ll knock down the sitting Vice President, not a wannabe.”

Nixon once said of Agnew that no assassin would be crazy enough to shoot him with Agnew as Veep. Biden wasn’t a Senate lion but he knows the ropes and knows the people. And some of his gaffes are honestly made. He’s an decent, right-thinking liberal and is willing to go against the party line for his principles.

I willingly drank the Obama Kool-Aid and I have no regrets, including Joe Biden as VP. The difference between Biden and Sarah Palin is too great to even dwell on. Joe may remind us of Hubert Humphrey, but his faults are honest and forgivable ones, unlike his predecessor.

shithouse April 28, 2009 at 1:49 am

ummmmm – people. you do NOT mess with Joe. when she calls him “rosy” she looks all sheepish – like she really wanted to say “say whaaaaa?”

SayItWithWookies April 28, 2009 at 1:49 am

There’s a reason Leslie is so head-over-heels about Biden. She’s pulled VP interviews ever since she got to 60 Minutes — and she’s just thrilled that she doesn’t have to talk to a guy whose dead stare and flat denials could freeze a reporter’s overies at 60 yards for a change.

And her other option was the reality-challenged, witless moose-shooting, failed abortion victim Sarah Palin. Given those options, I’m surprised she didn’t interview him while spread out naked on a white satin bedspread covered in rose petals.

zomg She can read Cheneys bubbles!

Someone needs to tell her that horrid red lipstick is not working for her.
Doesnt she have a gay friend?

Bearbloke April 28, 2009 at 2:01 am

[re=301315]hobospacejunkie[/re]: I found the interview pleasant (gaff-free) enough… and I’m sure that the rag-tag Plague survivors in newly infected (since this evening) New Jersey, South Carolina and Denmark are gonna be so starved for entertainemnt (unlike their newly-zombiefied neighbours who are merely starved for BRAINS) that they’ll enjoy the interview also….

LOVE Leslie Stahl and her orange lipstick that’s drawn outside of her lips. LOVE.

I something forget about our VP. Is Joe a socialist muslin acorn loving fascist like Barry?

chascates April 28, 2009 at 2:30 am

[re=301326]prototype[/re]: Much more so. It just come out right.

chascates April 28, 2009 at 2:35 am

Think how Stahl would be thrilled with this:

“Of course, everyone’s first choice for president in 2012 is Dick Cheney. But Liz Cheney’s boffo performance yesterday in the lefties’ den, MSNBC, defending sensible interrogation policies in the war on terror, surely puts her in contention for the runner-up position.”

I wish she’d asked Biden about the Administration’s Official Position on Gov. Perry’s generous offer to leave the Union…. btw, I just heard Austin had a BIG tornado tonight, so now would be a good time for Texas to leave – there’s the door Rick, don’t let it hit you on the ass on the way out…

Lesley Stahl sucks ass, obviously.

agentstinky April 28, 2009 at 3:58 am

Why would we call Biden “Schmoozer-in-Chief?” That’s an actual cabinet position, one which, like NASA Administrator, Obama has yet to fill.

ServiceJervixJuice April 28, 2009 at 4:02 am

[re=301307]2druk2phluq[/re]: spss..ta-ha-ha…”cobwebs in the meat curtains”. Thank you.

Bearbloke April 28, 2009 at 4:13 am

[re=301335]hobospacejunkie[/re]: Wrath of their god, eh – does that include the brutal drought they’ve been cursed with? Ya know, now really would be a good time for Texas to secede… vaya con Dios, motherfuckers!

TimesUp April 28, 2009 at 4:25 am

It’s not that Biden talks “too much,” it’s what he says that gets him the sobriquet, “gaff machine.” But even still, his gaffs per words uttered ratio is very low compared to Rep. Bonner, or that other douche Sen. McConnell.

Bruno April 28, 2009 at 4:46 am

Joe the Plumber will be so upset that there is already a “Regular Joe” the Vice President

Lionel Hutz Esq. April 28, 2009 at 4:50 am

Let’s face it, after having to make the blood sacrifice and go through the other rituals required of one to interview Cheney, interviewing Biden must be a bit of a let down.

hobospacejunkie April 28, 2009 at 5:37 am

[re=301346]Bearbloke[/re]: The drought, yes. Also, this probably means we (central Texas) are due for a big flood soon. We tend not to get regular rain, drought or no drought. We get it in bucketfuls for a day or two, then nothing for weeks, months. Then every several years we get one big motherfucking two-three day rain that floods the whole fucking area, especially the areas to where the brilliant Army Corps of Engineers have applied their special genius (see River, Mississippi as written about by John McPhee.) All the local creeks flood, several dumbasses get swept away in their cars, and every shop on Lamar St. near the river gets ten feet of water. It’s an awesome sight to behold, but also a testament to how stupid it is to replace all dirt & green with concrete so as to quicken and increase water’s destructive speed and impact rushing in from the christian north suburbs. Kind of like flooding in Seattle. Weather here is just fucked up, to put it simply. It’s not unusual to go 60+ days without rain in the summer where everything turns brown, except the lawns of the water-wasting bastards who can’t bear the embarrassment of not having a green lawn. Like Lance Armstrong, for instance, who was called out in the local paper for having the highest or 2nd-highest water bill during the dry months last year or the year before. Livestrong indeed.

Also, what’s up with “You seem to be not just Yin and Yang, but actually complete opposites.” Isn’t that the whole idea with Yin and Yang?

Also.

[re=301335]hobospacejunkie[/re]: “Williamson County, the red-headed hateful conservative stepchild to liberal Travis County (home to Austin)”

I know; I live in Cedar Park (still see W & McCain/Palin bumper stickers on SUVs driven by fat, bleached blonde white women talking on their cell phones & munching a burger). I was amazed though by the # of Barry yard signs in my little neighborhood, so all hope is not lost.

I actually did not know there was a tornado last night, but really who would miss Hutto & Georgetown if they got ahem…removed from the landscape?

El Pinche April 28, 2009 at 8:57 am

[re=301356]Texan Bulldoggette[/re]:

Hutto is a landfill waiting to happen.
And Georgetown….Home Depots for miles and miles.

But none of those compare to Bastrop, Tx (25 mi outside of austin) where one time I was warned by a park ranger that the klan was doing a rally at Lost Pines. He was very kind since my klan consisted of four spics (one of them was me), two chinks, a raghead, and one gay n*gger. So we said fuck that.

Lesley was hot when she was younger.

Mr Blifil April 28, 2009 at 9:40 am

Ha then Noobama walks in and Leslie’s like “Do you and Biden…umm…Does Biden…huhh…Joe…unvarnished advice…oh fuck me MR PREZIDNT FUCKME!!!”

Deepthroat April 28, 2009 at 9:45 am

“[Joe and Hills] meet for a policy breakfast every tuesday.” In other words, they consume a newborn white Anglo-Saxson baby on a bed of arugala followed by a session of mutual buttsecksing. Also, Bible burning.

[re=301329]PhillipE[/re]: You spamming motherfucker. And also what gurukalehuru said.

JMP April 28, 2009 at 10:35 am

Unfortunately, I believe that Stahl is the young 60 minutes reporter, being under 90.

June Cleaver 2.0 April 28, 2009 at 10:35 am

Biden was the “poorest” senator? I don’t think so. After his wife and daughter died, I think he got it right what’s rich in one’s life.

Biden is a great reflection of Obama’s choices.

sarcasticusername April 28, 2009 at 10:55 am

leslie stahl could not have been more moronic in that interview, biden showed great restraint not punching her in the face; god knows i was tempted to reach through the tv and do so.
“so joe tell me why you’re a big bumbling loser that everyone laughs at?” i loved when she was going on about his office being cheney’s old office, and he looked at her like she was crazy and told her it had kind of been every VP’s office; you just know he wanted to make a crack about how hard it was to get the smell of sulfur out of the rug.

Custerwolf April 28, 2009 at 11:10 am

Jesus christ, her lipstick is so red I keep wanting to stick a tampon in her mouth.

cranky April 28, 2009 at 11:16 am

why on earth do the people at 60 minutes feel the need to behave as though they have the hardest job in television? they are forever sighing and moaning. friggin’ clowns.

lawrenceofthedesert April 28, 2009 at 11:30 am

[re=301404]kapish[/re]: Quit trying to justify your youthful mistakes… At the very least, Stahl’s guilty of reviving an old burlesque “Putting on Lipstick” routine that was done on 50′s t.v. by both Sid Caesar and Milton Berle, both of whom she resembles (Uncle Miltie in drag was a bit cuter). Maybe next week she’ll do “The Man Going Into the Subway” and “Putting on a Girdle.” A couple weeks ago, I thought Leslie’s onscreen flirting with Alice Waters was exceeded only by Stahl’s obvious repugnance of getting her hands dirty gardening. We hath become quite the great lady in our dotage, blech.
