Vice President Joe Biden misspoke... again. Biden said, "Folks, where's it written we cannot lead the world in the 20th century in making automobiles?" Biden said this on the campaign trail in Virginia today, August 15, 2012. Someone needs to tell the VP that we've entered the 21st Century over a decade ago.

Biden has said far more foolish things than Sarah Palin during her candidacy for Vice President in 2008. Yet, I don't see the media mocking VP Biden as much as they mocked the former governor of Alaska.

Saturday Night Live had Tina Fey portray Sarah Palin and say, "I can see Russia from my house!" In fact, Sarah Palin never said those words. The media repeated it so often that many Americans believed Palin said it. Did the media cry sexism after the attacks against the woman candidate? No. The media piled on the attack with "ambush questions" to deride and ridicule Palin.

VP Joe Biden has made racial gaffes, sex jokes about his parents, innuendos about the president's penis, asked disabled people to stand up from wheelchairs, humiliated himself by declaring Secretary Clinton more qualified than himself, and much, much more. Individuals on YouTube and Conservative bloggers have tracked Biden's gaffes, but the mainstream media stays quiet.

Watch Vice President Joe Biden gaffe about 20th Century:

If the media treated Biden like Palin he would have been laughed out of office long ago. We laugh at him but to think he's second in line is just plain shocking!

Anyone can have a slip of the tongue. It's quite another thing to be proudly stupid.

"Biden has said far more foolish things than Sarah Palin during her candidacy for Vice President in 2008. "

LOL Um, no. Not even close.

"The media piled on the attack with "ambush questions" to deride and ridicule Palin."

Oh, you mean like "What newspapers do you read? or "What are the duties of the Vice President?" Those 'ambush' questions?

The Fox Media sure doesn't miss a chance to mock Biden, and Failin' Palin weighed in today saying the president should replace him with Hillary. Romney is the one who should apologize for his low class personal attacks on the president rather than their policy differences.

If Romney can say he has no control of his SuperPACs then that applies to the president also. But this is the most vicious personal campaign I have seen in my lifetime mostly by outside groups thanks to Citizens United. However, Romney makes it personal when he says the president is desperate, a hater, foreign, and should go back to Chicago. Makes me think he has an account here on Sodahead.

The media only wants to fill air time with everything and anything they can get their hands on. They don't care who it is. They have commercials and advertising to sell and anything that creates sizzle will do to keep the money coming in. Sarah Palin gave them a lot to write about and Joe gives them less.

They are both blithering idiots and yet, the media seems to hide Biden while pointing at Palin. Yes, of course the media is predominantly left lib biased. That's the only thing keeping the lying socialist traitor Obama in the race as well as keeping the facts about the unjust and socialist obama care tax away from the eyes of voters.
