An imposter in life, without a true, authentic, core self based on reality, cannot honor and applaud and support the genuine gifts, ingenuity or entrepreneurship of others, especially if part of the lie he lives is the belief his father was laid low by capitalism.

A quote below, from the article cited above, tells me all I need to know about Joe Biden.
This politician has no integrity and no shame. I wouldn't lend him the keys to my truck never-mind the keys to the WH. Biden is nothing more than a big mouthed poser.
"Remember, this vice president lied about having three undergraduate degrees, when he only has one. He lied about going to law school on a full merit-based scholarship, when he went on a half-scholarship based mostly on financial need. He lied about graduating near the top of his class when he graduated near the bottom. He admitted to plagiarism during law school and plagiarized a speech while running for president in 1987."

The title of this thread is missleading. It implies that Joe has a mind . . .

I don't like Joe Biden's personality or politics. However, I don't like cut-rate psychoanalysis either. I didn't like it when it was the "thing to do" when Richard M. Nixon was president - and after. I don't like it now.
How the hell does this guy know what Biden thinks about his father and the family foibles of failure? If 'we' keep this kind of crap up, we'll put Joe back into the '2nd chair' in our governmental orchestra.
How do you deal with Biden's stupid remarks? How about saying, "I'm not going to dignify that remark with an answer. Now, as to the changes in the tax code that we are proposing..."

Agreed. That is one reason why my personal take away from the article was a simple reminder of Biden's lies and plagiarism.
There are links in the cited article to support each of these reports.
It amazes me how these folks (The Biden's of the world) believe they are somehow worthy of the people's trust. It is more amazing that we allow such rabble to represent us.
C'est la vie.

Ain't THAT the truth.
I had to look twice and see that this wasn't in the Comedy Zone myself.

That is exactly what I was talking about in a collateral thread RE Paul Ryan. That is an example of where they will (not might) attempt to indicate (and report) lack of depth because he doesn't rise to the bait of the distraction, but will actually be Ryan returning to what's meaningful.
I enjoyed having Joe as VP; he's entertaining, and he doesn't edit his thoughts. He reminds me of Larry the Cable Guy, but without the intellect.

Hel-Hel-Hel-Hel-lo-lo-lo-lo............
From the article linked in the OP.From a psychological perspective, however, and without having had the opportunity to examine the vice president, personally (although I would welcome it), I can tell you there is more to Joe Biden than random discharges emanating from his cortex or random words emanating from his mouth.In other words, I have a deadline to meet and books to sell so I will set aside my professional ethics and wing it.:rolleyes:
MOO, Vice President Biden's ill considered comment regarding blacks and chains was not just another example of his typical foot and mouth shoot from the hip approach to political rhetoric. It was also a transparent effort to co-opt the criticisms that Tavis Smiley and Cornel West have leveled against the current administration. Instead of getting caught up in the "no we're not / they are" finger pointing, maybe the president's opposition could find ways to use the Smiley/West critique as an opportunity for out reach.

Keith Ablow is a psychiatrist and member of the Fox News Medical A-Team. Dr. Ablow can be reached at info@keithablow.com.
This person, Keith Ablow, has been playing a game, some mornings on Fox and Friends. The anchors describe a reported behavior, or reported verbal exchange. The anchors then ask the good Dr if the person is "crazy "or "sane"; complete with video graphics including check marks in a box. I have taken a dim view of turning the practice of Medicine, Psychiatry in particular, into a game. Dr Ablow has no problem doing that,. I wonder how much they pay this talking head for playing that game with them? That said, his opinion somehow begins to carry less weight than others, who are taking the practice of Psychiatry more seriously.
Like others, the reminders of Joe Biden's forays into make believe, simply under score the general tone of the current administration. I'm pretty sure obama sees the value in having someone like Joe Biden on his ticket, twice. obama can sit back, smile, and think, "well, at least I'm not as bad as he is".
The election is near. May the Romney, Ryan administration remind us more of President Reagan, that jimmy carter.

This is also the same asshat that stated Casey Anthony had nothing to do with the disappearance of her little girl. I can't stand to listen to the man.
A'blow - A'stan - do I detect a pattern here? :rolleyes: :D
Following in former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani's footsteps, the Wall Street Journal's Peggy Noonan on Sunday made a strong comment about the media's handling of Vice President Joe Biden's recent miscues.
Appearing on NBC's Meet the Press, Noonan said:
DAVID GREGORY, HOST: Peggy, what did you make of this whole episode this week?
PEGGY NOONAN, WALL STREET JOURNAL: Oh, well I thought everything Rudy Giuliani just said was true. If it had been a Republican vice presidential candidate who had made those gaffes, one after another, so comically, and all on tape, the subject today of the panel would be how stupid is this person, can this person possibly govern?

If it had been a Republican vice presidential candidate who had made those gaffes, one after another, so comically, and all on tape, the subject today of the panel would be how stupid is this person, can this person possibly govern?Governor Palin's heavily-edited interview with Charlie Gibson was aired on 11-12 September 2008. In her conversation, she was not skillful in defining the Bush Doctrine. (The full transcript is available here (http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/Vote2008/full-transcript-gibson-interviews-sarah-palin/story?id=9159105&singlePage=true).) The next installment of Meet the Press, the panel did not talk about her performance in that interview but did focus on her comments regarding Senator Clinton (transcript is here (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26702299/ns/meet_the_press/t/meet-press-transcript-sept/)).
NBC's Katie Couric dismantled Governor Palin in a two-part interview aired on 24-25 September 2008 (transcript and video of part one is here (http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-18563_162-4476173.html), part two is there (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/09/25/eveningnews/main4479062.shtml)). The interview was not mentioned on the next episode of Meet the Press (transcript is here (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26927711/ns/meet_the_press/t/meet-press-transcript-sept/)).
In the subsequent weeks leading up to the election Governor Palin was rarely discussed and when she was, her growing number of gaffes were not the focus of the conversation.

The MSM didn't have time for Palin late in the election of 2008 - it was tripping over itself in covering the Obama campaign, historic event and all.
IIRC, SNL did the Palin bit in late September 2008...the damage of Palin, self-inflicted and otherwise, had basically been done.
Palin is old news (never was the VP) - Biden is the current VP - Ryan is a current VP nominee. IMO, fair, openminded, objective comparisons (practically an impossibility with our MSM and blogosphere) between Ryan and Biden seem appropriate.
YMMV - roll on November.

YMMV - roll on November.It is indeed tough; we will all have to sift our own chaff from grain, due diligence, and so on. Lots of people working in the belly of the beast regard SPLC and MSNBC as "moderate" sources.
Tick-tock.
