Did you catch this morning's latest Joe Bidden gaffe?
“I refuse to accept the notion that the United States of America is not going to lead the world economically throughout the 20th Century.”

I actually saw that on the morning news today and did the 'huh, what?'

H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.

    Aside from that gaffe, he pretty much threw Obama and the whole party under the bus. He's a walking nightmare to the white house. Glad all that foreign policy experience is paying off though.:rolleyes:

    The guy doesn't know what century he's in and that's not much of a gaffe? LOL!!! I'm ashamed that the goof is formally from Delaware.

    He's not, he's from the Allentown and Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area. He moved to Delaware because it was the easiest place for him to get elected because of his ties to the businesses in Delaware.

    Oh good heavens. I'm sure we all misspeak like that several times a day. The difference being our comments aren't recorded and played back nationally.

    I know all about him John, thanks. As I said, "formally" from Delaware. Perhaps I should have said, "formally representing Delaware," his previous home before being elected vice president but I get your drift.

    True Bro, but it doesn't shed a good light on the second most powerful man representing the USA, the most powerful country on earth. He should be more careful as it makes him look like a sloppy dope making a public statement and mistaking the century. Our enemies could take that statement as an admission of the decline of the USA as the leading economic power on earth and the USA as a whole. We already had Arab and other heads of states disrespecting our president by not shaking his hand. Of course it didn't help that he bowed down literally to some. NO, our leaders shouldn't be making mistakes even as small as that.

    Look at how Bush was perceived. Some made a big deal about how he pronounced the word, "nuclear," something as insignificant as that.
