Several key Democratic Party professionals have told PJ Media that Vice President Joseph Biden has become intensely jealous of attention being paid presumptive Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan. Thousands have turned up for Ryan’s speeches while only 600 appeared for Biden’s latest address.
“He’d be tearing his hair out, if he didn’t have to be so careful of the follicles,” said one Democratic professional, speaking under condition of anonymity similar to that given GOP professionals who spoke earlier about Ryan in a Politico article by Alexander Burns, Maggie Haberman, and Jonathan Martin. Biden is known for having had hair transplants while Ryan has a full head of his own.
“They’re sending Joe to secret anger management training. He’s been going berserk because he’s worried people think Ryan is more intelligent than he is,” said another Democrat, again speaking under anonymity and reminding PJ Media of Biden’s unimpressive college record where he ranked 506th of in a class of 688. The vice president has acknowledged plagiarizing while in law school, though he says it was “inadvertent.”
Consideration was being given, the Democrat added, to Biden’s having a “family emergency” in Argentina at the time of his scheduled debate with Ryan.
A third Democrat operative said party professionals were “extremely relieved” by the anonymously sourced Politico article alleging GOP pros thought Ryan a risky nominee. “That’s our best hope,” said the first Dem pro. “If Biden actually had to confront Ryan on substance, it could be a disaster. The vice president’s a bit of dim bulb, as everyone knows.”
As for Politico itself, that Democratic pro continued, “Some people think they’re sleazy because they rely so much on anonymous sources and innuendo, but they’re highly reliable for us when the chips are down. “
Argentina? Is that near Scranton?
Why do Democrats leave town in order to avoid confronting smart young Republicans from Wisconsin?
I move to close nominations for this thread’s Winning Comment.
SECONDED!
“Why does the bologna avoid the slicer?” – William F. Buckley
Very well played sir.
What’s good for the goose and all that…
Someone told this to Harry Reid: supposedly, all this stuff is written down on the back of Barack Obama’s college transcripts, which is why he doesn’t want anyone to see them. Biden, either.
“…people (don’t) think Ryan is more intelligent than he is.” — They KNOW it!
They should spare the bucks for his “anger management class”! — Two reasons: 1st, you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. 2cnd, in his case it would be impossible even were he younger. — He’s plainly too dumb!
My, oh my, ain’t revenge sweet for what they did to Palin?! Here’s to Sarah! Enjoy!
Well, duh. Of course you can’t teach a dog new tricks….after it has been eaten.
Mr President, please, “eat mor chikin”

Palin was nowhere near as smart as Ryan, but she was also a lot smarter than the dems mader her out to be, including being smarter than Biden, although that isn’t saying much.
I have given this considerable thought and I simply cannot decide who the dumbest person in Washington, DC is. But I am pretty sure it is either Joe Biden or Nancy Pelosi…
Well, RUKidding….the answer to who is the dumbest elected official in Washington can be a difficult question to answer because it all depends on who is actually in DC at the time of the question. Can pretty much guarantee that it will always be a Democrat, though.
Any “dumbest person in DC” list should include California Senator Barbara Boxer.
Wait, Patty Murray is still there…
In other news, what is the latest regarding the ugly rumors about Harry Reid?
Someone I know says has heard from someone really trustworthy that Harry Reid is a pederast. I think that “Dirty Harry” needs to clear the air about these allegations.
– mistress there?
@7 Steve
Reid seems to have become a millionaire in office (despite the non-millionaire comp package) through a heretofore undisclosed ownership stake in a Nevada convention/hotel facility that has hosted local-affiliate-level and national-organization-level NAMBLA gatherings practically every quarter.
At least, that’s what an unidentified fellow partner in the ownership group seems to have admitted — you’ll have to talk to him.
So, not only is Sen. Reid dogged by highly-charged questions about pederasty proclivities, he now has to confront serious concerns about how much he financially profits from enabling this predilection on the part of others.
“he’s worried people think Ryan is more intelligent than he is”
Biden should be worried. Ryan’s intellectual abilities make Biden’s two digit IQ look poor indeed.
“[Biden]’s been going berserk because he’s worried people think Ryan is more intelligent than he is”
No, it’s because he’s worried people will find out whether that’s true.
“Biden is known for having had hair transplants while Ryan has a full head of his own.”
At least you and I don’t try to hide anything, Roger.
We are both fond of hats, but only to avoid sunburns of course.
Please. He’ll “hike the Appalachian Trail.”
Heh, this post sounds like it came from The Onion!
What, is this your audition for a slot at The Onion?
Heh. Todd beat me to it.
Biden was selected as running mate to Obama,
I remember hearing, in order to bring “gravitas”
to the campaign, for his supposed savvy on
foreign policy!
Biden was chair of the foreign relations committee. the problem though was that every idea he ever had when he was there was an incredibly stupid one, like his idea to break up Iraq into 3 parts, which would have created total chaos.
Well, at least Biden is smart enough to realize that he may not be as smart as he thinks he is.
True, unlike Obama, who is almost as stupid, but is convinced he is the smartest guy in the room.
Is Argentina the 54th state?
I think it’s a town in the part of North Carolina biden was speaking in recently…
Hey, how about the place in Africa where Kerry sent his girl friend the summer before the election? That worked well; no one heard a peep from her while she was there.
I can understand Biden’s jealousy, Ryan is everything that Biden is not-starting with bright, witty, handsome, likeable, intelligent, and sane. All Biden has in his favor is goofiness. That is, if you aspire for goofiness in a VP.
Dear Readers, “slow” Joe Bidden is representative of his followers…. scary ain’t it?
BTW consider the stupid level of your average progressive…. now realize that 1/2 of all progressives are even stupider….
I’m not just President of the Senate ( er,Hair Club for Men); I’m also a client.
Argentina is well know as a center for quick plastic surgery – like breast implants and including sex-change operations. Maybe Joe’s gonna become a switch-hitter so Obama can claim to have the first Female VP?
Biden was in his office when an aide rushed in and told him “Mr. Vice President, two Brazilian soldiers were killed in Afghanistan today. We think it’s advisable for the President to acknowledge those deaths with a quick statement to the press. What do you think?
Biden thought long and hard, taking his time to mull this over. Then he asked the aide to come closer, and he whispered in his ear, “Just so I have this correct, how many is a ‘brazillion’ again?”
Brilliant!
Of course, that’s nothing compared to what Biden said when his aide told him two Lebanese soldiers were killed in Beruit…
Sometimes it’s hard to know what’s satire and what’s real.
It occurs to me that Biden may soon have a “medical emergency” that will force him to withdraw from the campaign. (A polite way of O’s throwing him under the bus.)
Joe-Schmoo Biden is so dumb he thinks he’s smart. This buffoon, this clown, this self-parody of a dimwit Dem, couldn’t teach a kindergarten class to put their socks on before their shoes.
They may have really been planning to find an excuse for Biden to take a powder, leaving the door open for The Beast to replace him on the ticket.
Palin just blew that option to smithereens by going on record recommending it as a strategy, thereby effectively taking it off the table. They wouldn’t dare do something recommended by Sarah Palin.
Brilliant chess move by the mama griz.
I hadn’t considered that, but you are right. Palin could sabatoge the entire Obama campaign by constantly giving him sensible recommendations on TV interviews, knowing that if she recommends it, they will never do it.
“Better to keep one’s mouth shut and have people think you’re a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.” After 150 years Twain is still right.
