From the Washington Post's "Reliable Source"
As [Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.)] recounts in the new Rolling Stone:
"I turned to Vice President Cheney, who was there, and I said, 'Mr. Vice President, I wouldn't keep you if it weren't constitutionally required.' I turned back to the president and said, 'Mr. President, Dick Cheney and Don Rumsfeld are bright guys, really patriotic, but they've been dead wrong on every major piece of advice they've given you. That's why I'd get rid of them, Mr. President . . .' They said nothing. Just sat like big old bullfrogs on a log and looked at me."
If being right were a qualification for public office, Joe Biden should've been removed from office years ago. As for non-responsiveness, the President could've been afraid that anything he said might appear in a Biden speech later. Which reminds me, why does this story sound familiar?
