    I know but Biden was talking about his role in the Senate, he was wrong about Article I but in terms of fuck ups it pretty tame. Compared to someone who thinks the Vice President runs the show in the Senate.

    The idea he doesn't realize that Article I of the Constitution defines the role of the vice president of the United States, that's the Executive Branch.

    But Biden is confusing which part of the Constitution covers the Executive Branch (it is Article II, not Article I)
    I think Lott is only trying to say that Biden claims that Article I is the Executive Branch, which it is not. That Article I defines legislative tasks of a vice president -while he's not the president- doesn't help his argument.

    all depends where you get your news from, man...if you make an attempt to read both sides you'll see that neither side is 'dumb' but the media would like you to think this. Here Biden is the dumbass. I've known this story in particular for a while, but reading both sides I dont think either are entirely wrong. Its funny that you believe all this that you are fed...you really would believe that she doesnt know Africa is a continent. You'll conveniently dismiss all things against Obama/Biden as hearsay, but you believe some McCain aide that Palin didnt know that....
    Once again, Fox news. Tell me o wise one - do you watch/read things from 1, maybe 2 or three other news sources at least? Or is this just the only place you can find thick enough bullshit to post?

    Edit: And btw this Lott guy got it wrong. Article 2 does cover the executive branch but Article 1 sets a limit on the authority of the Vice President within Congress. "The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no Vote, unless they be equally divided". This is the ONLY power the Constitution gives to the Vice President as President of the Senate.

    It is a ceremonial role in modern times and even Cheney who's pushed the boundaries of what a Veep can do in office never took "control" of the Senate or made such remarks, Biden's soon to be role in the Senate is almost non-existent. Honestly if it's the only "gotcha" thing you can come up with, a minor slip up, in comparison to Palin who believes the Vice President's role begins in the Executive and ends in god knows where, it's pretty weak.

    Biden has a habit of speaking before thinking but his experience and knowledge far exceed that of Palin. And there is a difference between miscommunicating policy and ideas on where the ticket stands, and flat out making clear legal, procedural and factual mistakes on issues a person running for the second highest office in the land shouldn't be making. In short I'd rather have a politician (they lie, cheat, steal ect.. ect...) then a plain idiot in office and you would too.

    Maybe that's because everything against Obama was being said by the opposition party while these latest things about Palin were being provided from within the GOP itself. If Palin really is as inept as portrayed, that's not a bad scenario for the Republicans compared to the worst case scenario that party supporters are intentionally spreading lies about each other. If the problem is just Palin, it's easy to fix quickly. If it's the latter problem, that's a bigger long-term problem for the party and will be much harder to fix.

    Yes, I believe she didn't, although with all this shit coming out she's probably looked at a map by now. Did you look at the video of Bill trying to defend her? He literally said that she could get coaching on what geography she doesn't know once she's in office.

    A Vice President of the United States getting a geography lesson about Africa being a continent once she gets in the White House?

    Really, she's a moron.
    Even if all of this is true, some of it I believe from video evidence, and some I think is just media BS, who cares?

    She is going to go back to Alaska to become unmentioned again. She lacks both the intelligence and the moderation to be elected President. She is now old news, the new news is OBAMA AS PRESIDENT! So try putting your past behind you and moving forward towards what will hopefully be a better country under our new president, and his chief of staff: Rahm Emmanuel (whom is an excellent choice).

    On one hand, we're going by the campaign aide's word. On the other, it's Sarah Palin we're talking about.
