Joe Biden Vaguely Connected To Another Car Crash

One week after killing someone, Joe Biden’s bloodthirsty stampede of vehicles has struck again. An NYPD car leading his motorcade crashed into a “livery cab” on its way to a Daily Show taping this afternoon. (Joe Biden’s on the Daily Show tonight — maybe he’ll have one of his patented “gaffes”!) These people driving cars tangentially connected to the vice president, who are they? And yes, it’s been several months, so Bob Novak jokes are cool. [NYDN, photo via "fleshtone" at Gothamist]

    At least tomorrow when he’s at the Washington Hospital Center, there’ll be doctors nearby.

  2. Well I’d like to know how the cab got livery in the first place. Had he already hit someone earlier?

  3. El Pinche says at 9:27 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Dont worry Bidey, three times one minus one is gonna make it ayyyyite. Pccch..Damn.

  4. Texan Bulldoggette says at 9:35 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Wow, & all Darth Cheney did was shoot an old guy in the face. Who’s got the bigger set now, huh, Dick?

  5. Who the fuck did they hire to drive those things? Are we going to hear next about Barry’s driver running a red light through a throng of people and yelling “FIFTY POINTS!”

  6. you cannot be serious says at 9:40 pm, November 17th, 2009

    I’ve always thought Joe Biden was slammin’.

  7. glamourdammerung says at 9:41 pm, November 17th, 2009

    I was not aware that “death panel” was the name of the Biden motorcade.

  8. CanadianBacon says at 9:43 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Both cars had the bumper sticker “Allah is my Pilot”, so it’s officially terrorism.

  9. glamourdammerung says at 9:43 pm, November 17th, 2009

    AxmxZ: Needs more Death Race 2000.

  10. “His registration was current but was revoked several times in recent years for lack of automobile insurance, state records show.”
    Figures he’d have a Checkered past.

  11. SayItWithWookies says at 9:44 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Eh, a cab took the front off a police car that was “scouting” (?!) the route ahead of the motorcade. Only way they can stick this on Joe is if they spread the rumor that, contrary to his appearance as a benevolent yokel, he’s actually such a hardass type-A that he terrifies his drivers into speeding through red lights and zipping along dark parkways so fast that they can’t avoid the stray pedestrian. I’m not sure that anyone would buy it, though.

  12. Novak jokes were cool before his body even chilled.

    I’m kidding, of course. Everybody knows his heart beat nothing but cold, cold blood and his bowels produced nothing but cold, cold scat.

  13. Damn, with this involving Mr. Stewart, I knew it was the Joos.

  14. Holy Cow!! says at 9:56 pm, November 17th, 2009

    He’s trying to beat Clinton’s “body count.”

  15. How in the hell has any Amtrak train made it between Washington and Wilmington for the last 30 years?

  16. Fox News Light says at 10:02 pm, November 17th, 2009

    I thought this was funny until I remembered his first wife and kids died in a car accident.

    Then it wasn’t funny no more.

    Truck Nutz?

  17. Fox News Light: My advice? Drink more and you won’t have to remember things like that.

  18. stumpycuse says at 10:08 pm, November 17th, 2009

    “the ambulances will have to wait their turn”

  19. JimNewell says at 10:15 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Fox News Light: Goddamnit.

  20. Wasn’t this an old Stalin trick?

  21. magic titty says at 10:22 pm, November 17th, 2009

    These things happen in threes.

  22. sati demise says at 10:26 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Is the horse OK?

    ’cause peta will be on his ass if anything bad happened to ol’ Dobbin.

  23. btwbfdimho says at 10:28 pm, November 17th, 2009

    It’s Biden’s campaign for public transportation. Go Joe!

  24. bitchincamaro says at 10:30 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Whatever happened to just cold throwing motherfuckers under a bus? Heenghh??

  25. Reefpilot says at 10:32 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Chappaquiddick land shark.

  26. chascates says at 10:35 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Did they have to shoot the horse? Or the driver? Biden should just appear via video uplink from now on.

  27. bitchincamaro says at 10:47 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Decker: So fucking funny, I have relapsed into my coma/bed. Nite nite, from the slightly eastern bowel boro of NYC.

  28. rottenart says at 10:51 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Reefpilot: Somehow, I’m just picturing a besotted Teddy K. wandering around the capitol wearing nothing but silk polka-dot boxers and a shark fin strapped to his head.

    Actually if Heaven is anything like I wish it was, that’s exactly what he’s doing right now.

  29. foulmouthed mrscreant says at 10:53 pm, November 17th, 2009

    The driver(s) must be Rush bots, “scouting” while really desiring to be teabagging and going rogue on someone instead.

  30. Jim Newell: But, I don’t believe his family was killed by Spiro Agnew’s motorcade, so…narrowly defined humour?

  31. Extemporanus says at 11:10 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Fox News Light: If this ever-changing world in which we live in makes you give in and cry…

    Say livery and let divery.

    It’s what Biden, Joe Biden, would’ve wanted.

  32. President Beeblebrox says at 11:11 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Strident RedState column about how Biden doesn’t care about other people on the road in 3… 2… 1…

  33. Extemporanus says at 11:15 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Click: When one’s name is “Zahid Butt”, getting one’s record wiped clean is all but impossible.

  34. the problem child says at 11:16 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Poor Joe isn’t driving a train no more.

  35. LowerdPeninsula says at 11:29 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Joe’s were-motorcade strikes again! How many more lives and insurance policies have to die/be managled before something is done about this? Won’t someone think of the children, lives, and insurance policies? Won’t anyone think of the children, lives and insurance policies. Good god, man.

  36. edgydrifter says at 11:35 pm, November 17th, 2009

    And Killer Joe laughs his ass off, swigging Cristal straight from the bottle with the bass thumping as he rolls off into the night.

  37. Downtheroadapiece says at 11:35 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Let me let you all in on a little secret. With budgets being what they are these days and the extra load created by nutso wingnuts on the PoTUS’s detail, ‘Ol flappy gums doesn’t actually have a full secret service detail anymore and he’s driving himself. And with all those years spent riding commuter rail, his driving skills are rather lacking anymore…mistakes were made.

  38. Extemporanus says at 11:42 pm, November 17th, 2009

    Reefpilot: Dude! That band is fucking killer!

  39. shortsshortsshorts says at 11:51 pm, November 17th, 2009
  40. Extemporanus says at 12:02 am, November 18th, 2009

    sati demise: chascates: Unfortunately, he had to be put down.

    He was sired by an Arabian father, born to a mare attracted to studs of the Triple Crown and reared by handlers in Hawaii, a paradise furlongs from the American mainstream.

  41. Mr Blifil says at 12:15 am, November 18th, 2009

    shortsshortsshorts: I would hit that.

  42. tootsieroll says at 12:21 am, November 18th, 2009

    Somewhat on topic given that Joe was on his way to TDS…

    Jon has Lou Dobbs on tomorrow.

    Could be fun.

  43. Novak jokes were cool the day he died, which wasn’t itself cool but less uncool than most people’s deaths would have been.

  44. Lascauxcaveman says at 12:28 am, November 18th, 2009

    WadISay: How in the hell has any Amtrak train made it between Washington and Wilmington for the last 30 years?

    Oh, the trains make it through just fine. But with an enormous toll of cows, negroes and dogs.

  45. gurukalehuru says at 12:31 am, November 18th, 2009

    This is weird. Like WTF, beyond the reasonable bounds of coincidence weird.

  46. shortsshortsshorts says at 12:36 am, November 18th, 2009

    gurukalehuru: Don’t worry, we can blame the Jews for all of it. And the gays, also.

  47. kewlguy42069 says at 12:41 am, November 18th, 2009

    Harriet I killed a kid

  48. It’s safer for you to go stridin’
    Than ride in the fleet of Joe Biden
    The accident rate
    Means his ship of state
    Will be rechristened Poseidon.

    Mr Blifil: I hit it 4 times - biatch!

  50. imissopus says at 1:53 am, November 18th, 2009

    A Twitter whore! That’s a new one.

  51. Extemporanus says at 2:00 am, November 18th, 2009

    JFD8: RABBLEROUSER!!1

    There once was a tweetwhore named JFD8
    Who thought posting twittericks was something great
    But sweet news it’s not
    When it’s just a dumb twat
    That needs to meet the cruel banhammer of fate!

  52. gurukalehuru says at 3:40 am, November 18th, 2009

    Extemporanus:
    Clever rhyming, poetry slammer
    but a bit too quick with the ol’ banhammer

  53. glamourdammerung says at 5:42 am, November 18th, 2009

    gurukalehuru: The VP motorcade did 9/11?

    I can hardly wait for the Alex Jones crowd to start on that one.

  54. Extemporanus says at 7:42 am, November 18th, 2009

    gurukalehuru: A considerate couplet, the gist of which I did consider.

    However, a perusal of le Google prior to poet-izing made it clear that WWJFD8 has a habit of leaving self-linked twitter ditties on this and other sites (e.g. POLITICO), and little—if anything—else.

    Had even a few non-copy & pasted comments been in evidence, I would’ve played it cool. But with clueless humortards like rabblerouser42 continuing to run roughshod as of late, my tolerance is admittedly low.

  55. x111e7thst says at 8:31 am, November 18th, 2009

    In the absence of a denial by WWJDF8 I am forced to conclude that he(?) and rabblerouser42 are in fact one and the same.

  56. Fox News Light: Does it become funny again when Biden goes on the Daily Show and lamely jokes about how New York doesn’t have nearly the amount of traffic he remembers?

    Or is that still counted as a gaffe?

  57. Fox News Light: You just made me remember when he almost cried during the VP debate. Biden + Car Crash = NOT FUNNY EVAR.

  58. Fox News Light says at 9:11 am, November 18th, 2009

    Jim Newell: Sorry Jim. My B.

    (just send me my iphone)

  59. Don't Mess with Joe says at 9:25 am, November 18th, 2009

    See, this is what happens when you mess with Joe. Just sayin.

  60. I’m telling you, vice presidents are nothing but stone-cold killers. You have Aaron Burr, (no doubt a bunch of others I’m forgetting), Dick Cheney and now Joe Biden. They are the scourge of America.

  61. pub_option says at 9:56 am, November 18th, 2009

    Yoko Ono: I’m not sure about Stalin, I think he liked more obvious ways to kill people, but some of Idi Amin’s enemies died in ‘car accidents’.

  62. x111e7thst: Wait, wasn’t WWJDF8 there when Glenn Beck raped and murdered that girl back in 1980? He certainly hasn’t denied it.

  63. depraved indifference engine says at 10:39 am, November 18th, 2009

    Old Joe did as he said he would,
    took all the shopping carts from all the malls
    and brought them to Utah, which was Zion.

  64. You would think the most secure way from getting from place to place in NY is by taxi. No one will ever suspect you are anyone important. But god help you if you don’t tip
