DO NOT ALLOW REPUBLICANS TO FRAME THE DEBATE!

(4,198 posts)My husband has it. I don't. Last night he read a headline out loud about Apple announcing that people should keep their iPhones at least six inches away from their pacemaker.
I asked, "Why? What's the problem?"
He replied immediately, "Too many lawyers."
I get this from him every day, and I love it.

(13,538 posts)I'm paraphrasing, but it was something along those lines. They've had that back & forth since the campaign. Doucey apparently can take it & Pres Biden isnt a jackass with insults. That helps.

(12,245 posts)Correct me if I'm wrong, but President Biden seems to have a better sense of humour. All the last guy could manage was being the butt of jokes. Being a joke himself notwithstanding.

(22,236 posts)asking Jen Psaki the dumbest questions on the face of the earth during her press conferences? If that's him, what an annoying prick he is.
I missed Biden's press conference where that happened, but I am so happy to hear that Joe nailed that guy good. What a great comeback that was.

PatSeg
(53,550 posts)he wasn't rude or mean. He just made a witty joke at Doocy's expense and did it very cheerfully. Biden always has had a good sense of humor, but everything has been so serious this past year, we haven't gotten to see it very often. I think Doocy might have mistaken Biden's good nature as weakness, that he is a pushover, but he would be very, very wrong.
Our President has been dealing with the press since before Doocy was born. There's not much he hasn't seen or heard.

(14,757 posts)How many times I yelled at the screen watching Obama react to some hateful dishonest ranting with calm politeness back. I guess at the time it was kind of admirable, but it was quickly revealed how the GOP were never going to recipricate. There is no value using it those that do not even know the meaning of the word cordial.

(13,437 posts)in the WH press room smacks of disrespecting the POTUS's station in government, by putting Biden in a position of having to acknowledge that fledgling snot.
Seems like Fox is setting the stage for WH press staff to snap at him for his unprofessional queries, so Fox can have something to bitch about Biden and the Democrats for the next 4 years.
I think Biden feels this Fox insult, which makes it easy for him to blow off the kid.
Fox management is giving Stevie the list of questions of the day.
