Which Vice President would you prefer?

The one who makes occasional "gaffes" (as described by his opponents) in off-hand comments.

Or...


The one who lies through his teeth in carefully prepared speeches?

"You can't hide your Ryan Eyes,
And your smile is a thin disguise,
I thought by now you'd reali-i-ize
There ain't no way to hide your Ryan eyes..."

"My, oh, my, you sure know how to arrange things,
You set it up so well, so carefully,
Ain't it funny how your new lies didn't change things,
You're still the same ol' (PATHETIC LYING MASSIVE PILE OF SHIT!) you used to be."

(profuse apologies to the Eagles...)

Joe just pointed out that the corporados want to bring back slavery. I'm so sorry the Repugs are all so butt-hurt at being called out.

For example, passing health care reform was indeed a "big fucking deal", whether you want to use that term or not.

And it's nice that we have a Vice President who can use the f-bomb to compliment a person instead of insult a person.
