OH Joe! Shut Your Mouth!!
Vice President Joe Biden Has put his foot into his mouth the other day and swallow it! I can imagine President Obama sitting their watching this saying "SHUT UP JOE, SHUT UP!!!!" Joe was addressing a AARP town hall meeting that unless the Democrat-supported health care plan becomes law the nation will go bankrupt and that the only way to avoid that fate is for the government to spend more money. Huh? Joe, are you nuts? I can imagine President Obama face turning red! Gosh that would be a picture, wouldn't it?
Joe said:
“And folks look, AARP knows and the people with me here today know, the president knows, and I know, that the status quo is simply not acceptable,” Biden said at the event on Thursday in Alexandria, Va. “It’s totally unacceptable. And it’s completely unsustainable. Even if we wanted to keep it the way we have it now. It can’t do it financially.”
“We’re going to go bankrupt as a nation,” Biden said.
“Now, people when I say that look at me and say, ‘What are you talking about, Joe? You’re telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt?’” Biden said. “The answer is yes, that's what I’m telling you.” (Watch the Video)
The event, sponsored by the AARP – which supports the Obama administration’s plan – was attended by mostly AARP members who were bussed in for the meeting. Yes all the drooling serior citizens who most likely were there not for Biden's speech , but for the free bingo and Dinner!
Biden took time from answering questions to chat with a member of the audience, who were mostly members of the AARP.
Biden told the group that the Obama health plan will not eliminate people’s ability to choose their health care insurance and that people who cannot afford insurance will be covered by the plan.
“They’ll be a deal in there so there’s competition, so what you’ll have in there is you’ll have the ability to go in there and say, ‘Now look, this is the policy I want. This is the one,” Biden said.
“And those people who can’t afford to get in there, up to a certain income, we’re going to subsidize them, you get in there and we’ll help you pay for it,” Biden said.
Can you imagine how silly this man sounds at least he isn't asked to spell potato!
