A Mother's Balancing Act

VP Joe Drops the F Bomb

So, President Obama was all set to sign the new healthcare bill into legislation yesterday, right?

Leave it to his trusty sidekick, Joe Biden, to steal a little bit of his thunder by dropping the F bomb just after introducing him. That's right. The Vice President cordially introduced the President, and then while shaking his hand, exclaimed, "This is a big F#@*ing deal." Apparently, he thought he was off tape. Um, yeah...

Ah, the picture of decorum, our Joe. Biden's Blooper's are getting as good as Bush's were...well, maybe not. He'll have to work on his strategery...

Here's the live clip, heard on national television:

 

 

Scranton? It Sucks! You Betcha'! We're Mavericks!

Did you guys happen to catch the opening skit on SNL last weekend? I was so hoping that they would do a parody of last week's vice presidential debate, and boy oh boy, did they deliver! Only Big Strong Man and I were out at a fundraiser for our daughters' school, so we missed it. Thanks to my ever trusty big brother, however, this link served as a worthy replacement for the original moment.

Dig it. And even if you saw the original, you know where I'm coming from when I say, it's worth rewatching.

For those of you in Palen's court:

Jason Sudeikis skewered Biden for his repeated references to Scranton, not to mention his undying love of John McCain.

And for those of you in Biden's camp:

Tina Fey did an outstanding job, winking and mavericking her way through the role, complete sentences that led to nowhere.

Watch the video. You'll see. Too funny. Life is meant for laughing. Enjoy the clip.
