Live-Blogging: Joe Biden Talks To Black People

by Rebecca Schoenkopf

Testify!
Joe does not want to inhale your flattery, NAACP — oh who’s he kidding? Of course he does, and he will hand some right back. He sat in, he’s a lifelong member of the NAACP, and he has gotten in PERSONAL TROUBLE with every single person in there, with hijinks!

FOX HEADLINE: Joe Biden admits sitting in Rev. Wright’s church, plotting to blow up Chicago with Bernadine Dohrn.

Poor Mittens. He was pretty loose, for Mittens, when he addressed the NAACP yesterday, but unlike Joe he does not know how to TESTIFY.

Old Joe is going after the GOP’s obstruction — three votes for Lilly Ledbetter, the debt ceiling, all their terrible and various malfeasances, “Obstructionism was the plan from the outset” — with citations! TELEPROMPTERZ!

Oh, the NAACP does not like Mitch McConnell’s number one priority being the one-term presidency of Barack Obama, they are yelling like they are at a horror movie. GIRL, GET OUT THE BASEMENT!

Anybody else wanna hear more about Joe’s hijinks with his friend named “Mouse”? Obama for America, could you send out a bulletin please?

And here is tender Joe, maybe our favorite Joe? He is talking about teaching, and education, and The Children. Who hates education? Romney. If you doubt Joe, just look at the GOP budget for the future! He is so sad about this, about their cuts in Title 1 funding and special ed. Joe is heartbroken by this, Joe is soft-voiced, more sorrow than anger. We bet anger will show up … next sentence?

You know what the NAACP likes? Equal pay for women. They like it A LOT. Also, VAWA. And contraception. Now let’s hear gay marriage?

OK we will talk about Obamacare for a while. Were you aware it is quite popular with people of color?

Pop Quiz! How do you think the NAACP feels about tax cuts for millionaires and simultaneous evisceration of the Earned Income Tax Credit? Please write your answer in the form of a haiku.

Does anyone remember Mitt Romney talking about civil rights yesterday? Like, at all? He did quote MLK, but his version of civil rights seems to have been charter schools and murdering Obamacare, right? That’s so weird, how Joe Biden actually has concerns about specific plights faced by African Americans due physically and solely to their color, like for instance racial profiling, and voter suppression.

Joe is finally booed, you guys! For saying “and let me close.”

Joe Biden, America’s favorite white guy. OR ELSE. The end.

OR IS IT? Drudge should have been reading Wonket, he would have found this gem much faster:

The end for real.

Love ya, Joe!
Guys, is there a link to see this on video anywhere?

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:17 am
Barb July 12, 2012 at 11:22 am

Thanks, buddy of mine.

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:26 am

My pleasure.

Ducksworthy July 12, 2012 at 12:15 pm
lisawines July 12, 2012 at 1:20 pm

Thanks for that link. I needed to clean out my tear ducts.

nounverb911 July 12, 2012 at 11:13 am

Have they booed him yet? Oops, sorry wrong party. Give'em hell Joe!

James Michael Curley July 12, 2012 at 11:15 am

There's a naked woman and a lousy imitation of a 428 Cobra over there –>

jodyleek July 12, 2012 at 11:20 am

It appears she is attempting to clean the windshield with her cooter. Does that work?

James Michael Curley July 12, 2012 at 11:24 am

Butt-X, prevents streaking, except by the user.

Lascauxcaveman July 12, 2012 at 11:38 am

It's a broadly accepted tenet among car enthusiasts that nothing shines the chrome on your rearview mirror like the ass of an Asian porn star.

ASHLEIGH_Joe July 12, 2012 at 11:44 am

And thus, are car shows explained.

Tundra Grifter July 12, 2012 at 11:30 am

She's welcome to come on over and see if it works on my car.

I'd put my chicken in her oven.

elviouslyqueer July 12, 2012 at 11:35 am

Just like Bristol, amirite?

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:33 am

It looks more like she's pleasuring herself on the rearview mirror.

Tundra Grifter July 12, 2012 at 3:37 pm

And lovin' it!

Terry July 12, 2012 at 11:27 am

I think it's put there to get the folks who read Wonkette at work in trouble.

ASHLEIGH_Joe July 12, 2012 at 11:27 am

That's weird, I just see BJs.

Ben and Jerry's, get your minds out of the gutter.

SorosBot July 12, 2012 at 11:33 am

What, do you think there's something sleazy about a website that matches rich old men with young women looking for a sugar daddy?

ASHLEIGH_Joe July 12, 2012 at 11:45 am

Is that what that was? I assumed it was a synopsis of Mitt Romney's campaign pitch.

PhilippePetain July 12, 2012 at 1:32 pm

So this is what girls mean when they say they're working on their MBA?

Guppy July 12, 2012 at 12:07 pm

My problem is that I'm not one of the 1% sugar daddies.

Doktor Zoom July 12, 2012 at 11:33 am

Downside: All I see is ads for my local State Farm agents

Upside: My local State Farm Agents are fully clothed.

lisawines July 12, 2012 at 11:48 am

All I see are adds asking me if my Mac is slow. HOW DO THEY KNOW? (paranoia creeps in and takes hold) Oh, never mind. Found the girl-on-car ad at the top. Er…

Designer_Radio July 12, 2012 at 1:23 pm

You should put a piece of tape over your web cam. They know.

lisawines July 12, 2012 at 1:48 pm

Ohhhhhhhh. That's it. I'm moving to Canada.

UnholyMoses July 12, 2012 at 12:12 pm

It's a 427 AC Cobra. (Tho it could be a 289.)

The 428s were put in Mustangs and Torinos.

/end of motor pedantry

James Michael Curley July 12, 2012 at 12:46 pm

You’re right. When I go through Redbank, NJ a couple times a year I see one and two weeks ago I decided to follow it and speak with the owner. It’s not only an authentic Cobra but old enough to have the AC Bristol emblems on the engine firewall frame which, if I remember correctly, would make it a 289. Notwithstanding – the one attached to that young lady’s differential is still a lousy imitation.

deanbooth July 12, 2012 at 4:40 pm

Anything so innocent and built like that just gotta be named Lucille.

James Michael Curley July 12, 2012 at 7:53 pm

A little like this Lucille.

Tundra Grifter July 12, 2012 at 11:15 am

I write this in all seriousness – I think Joe Biden is much smarter than most people give him credit for. Mr. Obama saw that when most folks miss it.

I hope the GNoP continues to wildly underestimate him.

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:17 am

Biden is brilliant.

He just can't keep his mouth shut and prove it.

Terry July 12, 2012 at 11:36 am

I've known a good number of men like Joe, including some of my relatives. Smart man and a product of a working class upbringing. He's retained a bit of the culture of the old social clubs that centered around various immigrant groups, veterans, or trades. You know he knows how to order a shot and a beer at the Ukrainian citizens club or the Irish pub and knows how to drink them correctly. He can talk to pretty much anyone with equal comfort. People can mistake affability and bluster for a lack of intelligence, but in doing so they put themselves at a disadvantage.

Designer_Radio July 12, 2012 at 1:27 pm

I thought he is a teetotaler? I want to think that anyway, since I became one a couple years back…

Terry July 12, 2012 at 1:38 pm

You're right. I didn't realize that. Still, he could walk in any of those places, drink an NA beer and be right at home.

Designer_Radio July 12, 2012 at 3:51 pm

Agreed – He can still walk in and exude the charisma to make everyone fall in love with him without a beer buzz.

anniegetyerfun July 12, 2012 at 1:41 pm

Wow, I have a lot of trouble believing that that man doesn't drink. I mean, I'll take your word for it.

PhilippePetain July 12, 2012 at 1:34 pm

Totally true. A little good-natured looseness goes a long way with people, and he's got it no matter how many things he says that embarrass the Villagers.

Chet Kincaid July 12, 2012 at 11:43 am

Has anyone ever thought he was actually stupid? That's news to me. It's a funny joke that he's some Camaro lowbrow dude or gaffe-prone, but the guy has a decades-long record as a senior leader in the Senate and presidential candidate with foreign policy expertise.

ChessieNefercat July 12, 2012 at 12:08 pm

The people who think Sarah Palin is intelligent, in all seriousness laugh at how stupid Joe is and confuse gaffes with actual ignorance. They are the same people who think the President can't speak without a teleprompter because of course he can't possibly have a thought in his head.

Tundra Grifter July 12, 2012 at 3:17 pm

I'm not sure all those gaffes are really gaffes. Like that gay marriage thing – personally I think that was carefully planned and well-executed.

The time he asked the gentleman in the wheelchair to stand up was obviously a mistake. Mr. Biden would never say something like that on purpose.

But any public figure is going to make mistakes.

ChessieNefercat July 12, 2012 at 6:06 pm

I agree with you on all counts. When he does make an honest but dumb mistake (God rest her! Whoops, God bless her! – I gotta get these right!), he has no problem taking full responsibility.

Terry July 12, 2012 at 1:39 pm

Yes, the right wingers like to try and paint him as unintelligent and a horse's arse.

fuflans July 12, 2012 at 9:38 pm

not serious types or people who know anything about him. or the senate. he's always been gaffe prone, but has a tremendous grasp of detail and policy. most of the old lions (and i include repubs like hatch – and certainly lugar – here) do.

it's only when he got thrust into bamz spot light that the shorthand became 'stupid'.

also, baggers have blessed us with a passel of the stupidest, least informed representatives since – …god, ever?

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:16 am

"You're all so clean and articulate!"

PsycWench July 12, 2012 at 11:29 am

"There wasn't one person in Sylvia's who was screaming, 'M-Fer, I want more iced tea.' "

chascates July 12, 2012 at 11:17 am

Even his gaffes are pretty funny. Get 'em, Joe!

ChessieNefercat July 12, 2012 at 11:30 am

God bless 'em!

smashedinhat July 12, 2012 at 11:17 am

Doe's Joe have a telly in his tummy? I could watch that telly aaahhll morning long! Tell me you have a telly in your tummy joe! I'm rolling around on the floor with my paws in the air soaking in the sunshine of your love.

sbj1964 July 12, 2012 at 11:19 am

Mittens ,and Biden playing Bad Cop/Good Cop.They are no Cagney&Lacy.Joe looked like he was playing at the Apollo.Funny stuff

BarackMyWorld July 12, 2012 at 11:19 am
ASHLEIGH_Joe July 12, 2012 at 11:29 am

I was saying "boo-unrs"…

Designer_Radio July 12, 2012 at 1:28 pm

Hahaha! Classic.

James Michael Curley July 12, 2012 at 11:30 am

There are 38 Springfields in the US – a Veto Proof Majority!

randcoolcatdaddy July 12, 2012 at 11:31 am

I await the special "Mitt Gets Booed Supercut Autotuned" sure to be clogging up the Intertubes.

Terry July 12, 2012 at 11:39 am

Did he drop in at Moe's Bar?

Chill_Bill July 12, 2012 at 11:20 am

"Guess what? My boss is a brother too!"

BarackMyWorld July 12, 2012 at 11:20 am

I hope he tells them how big the president's stick is.

Goonemeritus July 12, 2012 at 11:21 am

It’s a shame that the administration couldn’t find a prominent African American to represent it.

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:27 am

In fairness, Eric Holder's the ranking full Blah, but he's busy ducking indictments.

Terry July 12, 2012 at 11:38 am

Sending the vice president is preferable to sending someone who sits at a lower level in the administration.

TribecaMike July 12, 2012 at 11:28 am

AG Holder spoke the other day.

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:32 am

*tearing up previous joke*

Well, it was worth the effort…

ChernobylSoup July 12, 2012 at 11:28 am

You don't waste precious election year time hobnobbing with your natural constituents. That would be like sending Romney to the Hamptons in July.

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:32 am

Wait. What?

nonbeliever7 July 12, 2012 at 1:22 pm

This is Obama playing his best Ali/Belichick/Phil Jackson zen game. A little rope-a-dope, effective use of substitutes, than as Andrew Sullivan says "meep fucking meep" in November.

Barb July 12, 2012 at 11:24 am

He mentioned contraception and family planning. I am tearing up. I'm tired of old, rich, white men trying to control the lady plumbing.

Maman July 12, 2012 at 11:42 am

That is because you forgot that your plumbing is there for men's pleasure exclusively. Like nature.

Chet Kincaid July 12, 2012 at 12:01 pm

I understand it's a Mutually Beneficial Arrangement.

glamourdammerung July 12, 2012 at 1:11 pm

I understand it's a Mutually Beneficial Arrangement.

Which probably makes it illegal for you to register as a Republican at this point.

Maman July 12, 2012 at 1:18 pm

Not according to the Mormons or right-wing X-tians.

Estproph July 12, 2012 at 11:24 am

Biden is pretty white. Romney is so white he's ultraviolet.

Texan_Bulldog July 12, 2012 at 11:29 am

He & Ann are so pasty white they probably glow in the dark.

randcoolcatdaddy July 12, 2012 at 11:33 am

Romney's heart is black, though. Not Black – black.

TribecaMike July 12, 2012 at 11:25 am

I wonder when the MSM will get around to reporting on what African-American speakers are saying at the NAACP conference?

ChessieNefercat July 12, 2012 at 11:37 am

If one of the speakers ends up being the President, then yes, they will report on it.

ibwilliamsi July 12, 2012 at 1:56 pm

Wait – what?

Limeylizzie July 12, 2012 at 11:25 am

I fucking adore this man. He is awesome.

Barb July 12, 2012 at 11:31 am

I'm going to need a fresh pair of knickers here soon.

Limeylizzie July 12, 2012 at 11:36 am

I didn't put any on yet, will need new couch.

Limeylizzie July 12, 2012 at 11:26 am

Why no organ?

BerkeleyBear July 12, 2012 at 11:31 am

No need when you are rocking your own pipes like Uncle Joey.

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:31 am

Because-a! I don't think-a! Joe Biden-a! Has the patois-a! Down-a!

Kin I git an Amen! a!

Chet Kincaid July 12, 2012 at 11:49 am

Make it plain, now!

Chet Kincaid July 12, 2012 at 11:56 am

This kind of tomfoolery defames Italian-Americans!!

Doktor Zoom July 12, 2012 at 11:34 am

Romney's the one with no organ, if you know what I mean (and I think you do)

Designer_Radio July 12, 2012 at 1:31 pm

I was hoping Mittens woulda got The Hook – Live at the Apollo style.

Barb July 12, 2012 at 11:27 am

"Where everyone has skin in the game and where no one is played for a sucker"
Play that funky music, white boy!

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:32 am

"People, don't hate the game! Hate the playah!"

ChrisM2011 July 12, 2012 at 11:27 am

I'll take twenty derpy Joes over one douschebag conservative any day.

SorosBot July 12, 2012 at 11:28 am

So Joe's not going to intentionally goad the crowd into booing so he can go to the bigoted base and say, "Look how mean those black people were to me!" like Mittens did?

ChernobylSoup July 12, 2012 at 11:31 am

This is no place for cynicism.

Jus_Wonderin July 12, 2012 at 11:32 am

That is very perceptive. SB, you need to be on "Face the Nation" or its equivalent.

SorosBot July 12, 2012 at 11:37 am

Well I am a white man – but I'm not Republican, so I only meet two of the three requirements to get on the Sunday shows.

James Michael Curley July 12, 2012 at 12:05 pm

If you are a White, Republican, Old, Veteran, POW, who never talked about his military service to ANYONE, ANYTIME with a rich wife you get Sunday-Show-A-Week.

ibwilliamsi July 12, 2012 at 1:56 pm

Joey don't play that.

Barb July 12, 2012 at 11:30 am

I hope that Sarah Palin lays down her gun and her bible and posts a rebuttal to this soon. I can't wait to hear how she spins this one.

TribecaMike July 12, 2012 at 11:40 am

"According to the Founding Fathers, the audience at the conference is only 1/5th the size that the lamestream media is reporting it is."

ChessieNefercat July 12, 2012 at 12:12 pm

I read that too quickly. I thought she was going to claim the crowd was only 3/5 the size the lamestream media claimed it was.

Chet Kincaid July 12, 2012 at 12:04 pm

Can you imagine her in front of the NAACP? "I had relations with a black guy once, and told only one friend of my self-disgust afterwards! (wink)"

BerkeleyBear July 12, 2012 at 11:31 am

Preach on, Voting Rights man!

SorosBot July 12, 2012 at 11:31 am

The Cold War is over? But WorldNetDaily and Fox News told me that Marxist CommieNazi Atheist Muslims were trying to take over America!

ibwilliamsi July 12, 2012 at 1:57 pm

You forgot the Fascists.

James Michael Curley July 12, 2012 at 11:33 am

Romney's appearance would have gone better if he showed up with barb-wire tats around each arm and the waist of his mom jeans eight inches below the waist of his magic Mormon underwear.

Chet Kincaid July 12, 2012 at 11:50 am

Because 70 year old middle class NAACP members love that shit!

James Michael Curley July 12, 2012 at 12:51 pm

And old white women who wonder why their grand children go to concerts given by a hard shelled candy.

sullivanst July 12, 2012 at 11:34 am

Joe Biden gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside, in a strictly platonic way of course ;)

ChessieNefercat July 12, 2012 at 11:36 am

Sometimes I get the feeling that Joe is secretly thrilled like a little kid to be a part of this administration. I think he is just as proud as can be to be the VP to Barack. I also believe that he is extremely intelligent, experienced, and has serious foreign policy credentials.

Edit: Also I think it is cool that Michelle and Jill genuinely like each other, enough that they work together on their Joining Forces project to help vets and their families.

ingloriousbytch July 12, 2012 at 11:36 am

I told you he'd rock that shit.

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:36 am

How do you think the NAACP feels about tax cuts for millionaires and simultaneous evisceration of the Earned Income Tax Credit?

Colored People love
Tax cuts for the poor blacks
Excellent words.

ChernobylSoup July 12, 2012 at 11:39 am

They tax me
They don't tax you
Die whitey

Edit:
They tax me dammit
They do not tax you at all
Die whitey die die

Chet Kincaid July 12, 2012 at 11:46 am

5-7-5 or GTFO.

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:49 am

I pronounced "blacks" blacks-uh

sullivanst July 12, 2012 at 12:59 pm

And drew out the "E" in Excellent to make two on?

Doktor Zoom July 12, 2012 at 11:36 am

Romney did exactly what he meant to yesterday: He told the shiftless nigras he doesn't hold with giving them healthcare on the white man's dime, and got booed for it. Just like when Santorum told English-Speaking Puerto Ricans to learn the Eeenglish, his real audience was NOT the people in the room.

Chet Kincaid July 12, 2012 at 11:44 am

To the applause of crackers everywhere.

ibwilliamsi July 12, 2012 at 1:59 pm

And then they got all uppity with him… It's what he expected.

Barb July 12, 2012 at 11:37 am

Great speech. Why do I feel the need for a cigarette and cuddling now?

actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:41 am

He makes me want to go buy condoms.

BarackMyWorld July 12, 2012 at 11:39 am

Joe is finally booed, you guys! For saying “and let me close.”

Win.

SorosBot July 12, 2012 at 11:41 am

Now MSNBC is waxing nostalgic for Jack Kemp, who was apparently the last Republican who could connect to black people. Of course he's been dead for three years.

SayItWithWookies July 12, 2012 at 12:00 pm

That still qualifies him to be a GOP Young Gun.

glamourdammerung July 12, 2012 at 1:13 pm

Jack Kemp, the guy that got a medical deferment out of going to Vietnam while playing for the NFL who called Clinton a "draft dodger"?

PartyMarty July 12, 2012 at 11:41 am

We are at Maximum Biden

Doktor Zoom July 12, 2012 at 11:42 am

Rich asshole's tax cuts?
Not so popular with the
dusky-hued masses

elviouslyqueer July 12, 2012 at 11:54 am

Rich folks' tax cuts are
Just the same as welfare but
Without those people

BarackMyWorld July 12, 2012 at 11:44 am
actor212 July 12, 2012 at 11:47 am

What? The tote bags weren't good enough?

Doktor Zoom July 12, 2012 at 11:50 am

Mission Accomplished.

Jus_Wonderin July 12, 2012 at 11:57 am

That's sweet!!

SorosBot July 12, 2012 at 11:58 am

Hm, my dog started jumping around and barking, as if she heard a whistle…

FakaktaSouth July 12, 2012 at 12:00 pm

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I like my ignorant, evil, racist, poor everybody hating, dismiss-ers of others right up front where I can see 'em. Nothing worse than somebody who isn't what they are all up front.

SorosBot July 12, 2012 at 12:17 pm

Now, saying that doesn't mean Romney is racist; he could just be pandering to the racists to get their votes. Which is just as bad, so fuck him.

natoslug July 12, 2012 at 12:22 pm

Hear, hear! Padded bras are the absofuckinglute worst! Wait, what?

UnholyMoses July 12, 2012 at 12:17 pm

Guess all those nig–DING!–blahs who secretly love him might not love him so much any more.

Dude is just playing to the base, but I'm not so sure they're ready to dance to his tune just yet.

nonbeliever7 July 12, 2012 at 1:30 pm

Free stuff? I heard Rmoney's Cayman bank gives out toasters…oh… and 14% effective tax rates.

sullivanst July 12, 2012 at 1:41 pm

Toasters? But Mitt's straight!

prommie July 12, 2012 at 11:46 am

Who let the Biden out? Woof, woof woof!

Hera Sent Me July 12, 2012 at 11:46 am

A great speech. The truth said with conviction and wit.

Once in a while I forget why President Obama picked Biden as his VP. This speech reminded me.

commiegirl99 July 12, 2012 at 11:49 am

NEVER FORGET!

Goonemeritus July 12, 2012 at 11:49 am

Biden is totally avoiding talking about the burden the last three years have been to the affluent white minority and corporations.

Chet Kincaid July 12, 2012 at 11:54 am

That's Corey Booker's job.

lulzmonger July 12, 2012 at 2:09 pm

Record corporate profits are the V-2 of ObamaFascizm!!!!!

Chichikovovich July 12, 2012 at 11:50 am

plotting to blow up Chicago with Bernadine Dohrn.

How many times do you people have to be told that this woman is not a terrorist. Rep. Peter King's hearings, added to everything else he's said on the topic have made it perfectly clear: throwing that label at that woman is a smear. And furthermore…

Oh, Bernadine Dohrn. Never mind.

Thought you were talking about Bernadette Devlin.

Natural mistake.

ingloriousbytch July 12, 2012 at 11:58 am

All that was missing was somebody putting a cape over him and leading him offstage only to have him jump back up and start singing "Livin' in America."

Guppy July 12, 2012 at 12:12 pm

please please don't go…

Chet Kincaid July 12, 2012 at 12:15 pm

Close the thread. Janelle Monae libel, also.

prommie July 12, 2012 at 12:00 pm

I do so wish that Romney would go for a "hail-mary," "game-changing" play, like McCain tried with the SnowCunt, and make Christie McFattyFatFuck his Veep pick. I would dearly love to see the Biden eviscerate the Fat Fuck.

ibwilliamsi July 12, 2012 at 2:01 pm

I'm pretty sure Romney's going with Liz Cheney.

Gleem McShineys July 12, 2012 at 2:42 pm

Eviscerate? Is there anything else to Christie, other than gut? What a mess that would be.

ASHLEIGH_Joe July 12, 2012 at 2:13 pm

Does anyone remember Mitt Romney talking about civil rights yesterday? Like, at all? He did quote MLK, but his version of civil rights seems to have been charter schools and murdering Obamacare, right?

Actually, funny thing about that MLK quote Romney dropped during his speech: It's from this sermon. In which King is basically talking about the Mitt Romney's of the world, specifically.
