Oh, that Joe Biden . . .

I'm glad Obama chose Joe Biden as his VP for several reasons, including especially today his colorful and uninhibited way of putting things.

After going after cheney for saying America is less safe under Obama, he recalled what he had said to george bush once about his foreign policy:

"I remember President Bush saying to me one time in the Oval Office, and he was a great guy, enjoyed being with him. He said to me, he said, well, Joe, he said, I'm a leader. And I said, Mr. President, turn around and look behind you. No one's following. People are beginning to follow the United States again as a consequence of our administration."

You tell 'em, Joe.
