Right now Biden is getting ready on a meal of red bull and live goldfish, and he has the 2 contenders for idiot of the universe;Pelosi and Debbie W.Schultz on either side of him rubbing his shoulders and telling him how great he is repeatedly into his ears..
You cant shine a turd by rubbing another turd on it..
They are goin down… and hard
Don’t know about that; ol’ Joe is a crafty feller.
Dude… pass the Cheetos!
I was so nervous last time I almost didn’t watch it. I’m much more relaxed about tonight.
I’m starting to think about life after Obama. I have 1000s of pictures, soundbytes and videos to delete. I can’t wait. Granny Jan and Jihad Kitty will continue but I’m not sure in what capacity.
Look, Obama and Biden don’t corner the market on morons in D.C. after November 6th. There is still plenty of work to be done to have our country restored and the ‘little’ people recognized as owners of the political system…instead of the blathering politicos.
Harry Reid will still be around for instance.
When Paul Ryan walks on the debate stage, he will be pushing a wheelchair. As he passes Biden, he will say: “With my Medicare plan, this is what I will be pushing your broke butt in over the cliff tonight.”
The Fraud-in-Chief will be on AF1, leaving Miami at 8:05 and arriving the WH at 10:30. I have to ask this silly question — because I haven’t flown in ~15 years, but will O be able to watch The Boob-iden on the boob tube?
AF-1 has DirectTV….so, he’ll be watching probably with several adult beverages in hand.
More likely something stronger and illegal. But whose laws apply at 40,000 feet?
But there’s also baseball and football on tonight. Just sayin’.
Wow Ol joe pivoted so fast past the first question i wonder if he answered it?
Biden out of the gate on Libya… What the H#ll is he going on about?
Paul on point…
Biden refused to answer the very first question – was the attack on the consulate in Libya an intelligence failure? He made a quick statement about Ambassador Chris Stevens and then launched right into a list of criticisms of every foreign policy position of R&R. It was a canned, rehearsed laundry list.
Then, as Ryan was giving his answer, Biden smirked, laughed, was almost chuckling out loud. such an a-hole. Then, he cut off Ryan so he could talk.
Raddatz is trying to pin him down now on what they knew about the attack in Libya.
Biden throwing the Intel community under the bus for Libya. -tacky.
Paul is on point but Biden has clearly rehersed his talking points. It will be interesting to see if Joe has enough material to cover the whole night.
Obama smirked during his debate; Biden is smiling and practically laughing during his.
Yep, he’s laughing again now! I think it’s his way of being dismissive of Ryan. He’s trying to indicate that he thinks Ryan is a moron.
Agree. The way he’s smiling/laughing looks ridiculous!
Biden’s giggling on the sideline looks so adolescent. Grow-up.
‘This is a bunch of stuff.’
It’s going to be a long night.
Bets on when Biden “snaps” and says something…? (30 minutes? more/less?)
10 mins
i’m feeling lucky… 9:34 give or take
Biden giggling….what an ass
Talking about deadly serious issues – the attack in Libya, Iran, etc. – and this doofus Biden is LAUGHING his ass off. What a schmuck!
Their game plan is to make a joke about everything and now the Bite me Veep says he means what he says even if it stupid. Biden is an old man who needs to be sitting on the porch saying people need to slow down going by my mansion.
Finally… Paul, it’s because this administation had no credibility. That is a theme to poound on all night long.
Is it me or does Joe look like a boob? Laughing and grimacing.
Boobs have nipples, Joe looks more like the brown hole.
Biden’s stage presence is making him look like a “laughing jackass.”
He really needs someone to smack that laugh right off his stupid face.
Agreed.
I’d love to volunteer to do that.
I’ll hold your coat, Lindy!
Biden’s more obnoxious than usual tonight… wonder if the pressure to perform has gotten to him…?
Let me make sure I understand Biden. The sanctions on Iran are good becuase Russia and China agreed to them. Russia and China would not agree to what Cognress wanted, stronger sanctions. So we have the strongest sanctions necessary.
I think he makes a case for the strongest possible in light of Russia and China. But that is not what we need.
OMFG! Raddatz asked about Netanyahu and how Iran will have a nuke by spring, and Biden is laughing again! WTH is he on???
I’m sorry, but Biden is such an effing a-hole. He needs to stop LAUGHING about Iran being closer to having a nuclear weapon!
I don’t think ol’ Joe paid attention to his debate prep.
I think Joe is on another planet. Iran is more isolated than ever??????????????????????????????????
Remember Joe is in a world by himself. As long as His Majesty Obama is in charge then he has a D**K to S**K.
Honestly, i’m having a hard time tracking biden.. He is spinning a gold thread straw here. All these threats are not really threats…don’t worry be happy. OMG does he thing Iran is bluffing? Does he think the people dying in Syria are faking it?
Yes, he said “we need to calm down” about the nukes in Iran. He seems to think they are nowhere close to being able to have a nuclear weapon.
Deadly serious issues and he is LAUGHING the entire time!
I agree… what the H#ll is Biden going on about
He’s even laughing while Raddatz asks her question about jobs and unemployment.
Here he goes with feigned outrage over the “47%” remarks.
Biden appears extremely unprofessional. How many more adjectives can we come up with to describe him. I’ve got to do something so I don’t throw something at the TV.
Unserious, adolescent, immature, silly meandering, moron, buffoon.
Anyone else?
Old, rude.
Can you get unemployment under 6%? Here goes Joe on the revisionist history. Sure we can… just change the numbers and count only 49 of the 57 states….problem solved. Looking for big things from Paul here.
Ha! Ryan shoots back with unemployment was 8% in Scranton, Pa when they came in and now it’s 10%. Biden tried to cut off Ryan’s answer and the mod had to shut Biden up and tell him this is Ryan’s two minutes.
Biden is LAUGHING again. He’s an annoying FOOL!
Point taken.
Can you believe this guy is one step away from the President? He’s like a hyena.
Scary.
Biden is a fool.
Biden is a joke….come on Paul, eff him up!
Fair shot? He’s on the talking points now….eff him up Paul
Has Biden answered a question yet? ,He has no answers…
I haven’t heard anything funny yet and VPBiden is laughing?
Wow, I just won a bet! I bet that Biden would bring up the car accident his family was in by 9:30. He never fails!
Uggh…when it doubt, fall back on the ‘family car crash’ story…
Martha Radwitch continues to allow Biden to interrupt and urges him on. Don’t be “too polite” Paul. Should have mentioned more about the apology tour starting in Cairo, et. al. GO PAUL GO!!!!!!!
She’s not controlling Biden but I think Paul Ryan is handling it well. Who is working on the video clips of Biden laughing?
Mitt Romney said hope is not a strategy; did the Obama prep team think giggling like a school girl was a strategy?

What Biden looks like when not answering a ?
Now his line is “they (Republicans) need to “get out of the way”. It’s the Republicans’ fault the recession is so prolonged, and more jobs haven’t been created.
So why doesn’t he know that it’s Harry Reid and the Dem Senate that is holding up the jobs bills the Republicans have passed in the House??
Too much Botox.
I’d give $100 right now if Raddatz looked at Biden and said, “Vice President Biden, may I ask WHAT is it exactly that you find so funny this evening?”
He’s LAUGHING!
Martha is just letting Joe walk all over him. Don’t go wonky Paul…
On to the economy….good luck laughing Joe
Ok.. 30 min + and neither one has socred a point. Biden is woriing the camera… Sorry but Biden +1. Might not be true, but is IS effective.
This is one of those debates that if you listen to, you think Laughing Joe is winning….if you’re watching, Paul is winning. Radish is losing control.
I think he was told to work on his expressions and interrupt at every possible opportunity. All he’s got is expressions. No real answers, just rhetoric, talking points and bs.
Mr. Ryan is too polite.
Wow is that the first mention of Bush?
Shut up JOE!
Amen! And quit interrupting!
Joe’s dentist must be proud. His dental work looks excellent.
Dentures? I noticed his teeth, too.
Paul going wonky is not going to work. Martha is letting joe walk all over him. While Joe might be an arse, he is taking Paul off track and off topic.
The Libidiots said McCain was to old to serve. Is JOE an exception?
Paul +1… this is what you do when you don’t have a record to run on.
Plus, he said he understand that Biden is under duress having to make up some last ground (from Obummer’s disastrous debate last week).
Clearly, part of Biden’s six day debate camp prep involved him being instructed to look into the camera and talk directly to the “people”. I really, really want to turn my damn TV off. This is the very last time I am ever going to see or listen to this clown.
I wonder if Joe is executing the strategy. Since Joe is a well known common-oddity…there is nothing to loose. I suspect the ancy, rude, interuptive behaivior is planned and executed flawlessly.
Most people watching this debate are probably not impressed with Bite Me’s laughing at everything Mr. Ryan says.
I’m not. Is this what happens in foreign policy with leaders across the globe? He laughs at everything he doesn’t agree with?
I bet Bibi would smack that ass a good one if he laughed or smirked at him.
800 million billion dollars in tax cuts for the wealthy? Biden is a little off there.
Biden does that ALL the time on the campaign trail. He throws crazy numbers out there. Accuracy is diffidently not a priority for him.
Idiot just laughed out loud!
I really can’t wait to see the fact check on Biden’s statements tomorrow.
Brietbart has some up, did a running tally throughout the debate.
Let’s just add a K to the VP’s name. JOKE
Joe’s version of “let me translate” is the hypovehiculation of Paul. Point for Joe. Just the same, this is getting ugly.
Biden +2 Ryan +1
Obnoxious. That’s the term I would use to describe Joey. All the laughing and sneering, condescending jerk. Ugh. He’s an ass. I think Paul is handling it really well. I would have hauled off and slugged Joe.
The mod needs to do a better job of keeping Biden from cutting Ryan off so much.
I think Ryan is doing a ood job of letting Biden look like a jerk who cannot stop laughing, interrupting and behaving like a total idiot.
yep and yep-what a jerk
Even the mod is interrupting Paul.
My husband is usually pretty cool about this stuff, said “Shut the f—- up!” to Biden on TV.
P.S. Biden looks like an a** and Ryan is handling it pretty well.
GO PR!
Someone should b*tch slap that smug smile off his face.
I’ll volunteer!
OK Joe, let the taxes go over the cliff for the job creators?
