The Nuclear Option: Ungrateful Obama Paints Pathetic Picture Of Vice President Biden

WASHINGTON -- Perhaps in this brave new era where nobody is a traitor anymore, it's not such a big deal how badly President Obama is screwing over his vice president.

But it is fairly extraordinary considering how much Obama owes his presidency to Joe Biden.

Obama picked Biden for his unmatched foreign policy expertise to offset his own haunting lack of foreign policy experience. Biden was the seasoned steady hand on the wheel during the campaign. Probably no one ever in the history of the universe has had more experience campaigning for president than Joe Biden.

Without the avuncular, "aw shucks," back-slapping, truth-speaking pol on the ticket, who knows if Obama could have won Ohio, Florida, Indiana, Virginia, or North Carolina?

So what does Obama do now that he has wrung every last drop of personal use out of old Joe Biden? He dumps him and endorses his most tenacious mortal enemy from the campaign, Hillary Clinton.

Please enlighten me as to HOW Joe Biden has unparalleled expertise in Foreign Policy? ANYBODY on Earth can go abroad and hand out U.S. dollars which is the median of exchange for the whole world. I get SO tired of hearing the plaudits of the O`Bama presidency
I could scream. HE HAS DONE NOTHING except pander to special interest groups and hand out money to 'NON-ENTITLEMENT' groups for votes. I`m sick of Biden,Clinton,O`Bama, and ALL the OTHER tax&spend Democrats. If I get my wish Harry Reid will spend ETERNITY in Hell along with the above and Nancy Pelosi.

Joe Biden is a fool that was picked by Obozo to make him look good and be an insurance policy against any plan to impeach him. (We could end up with worse).
