I love the handsome Old Joe just as much as the next person because he is excellent and pretty much the perfect mix of wacky and free wheeling. But Polly also has integrity, so I am gonna call the Veep out: New York’s fine LaGuardia airport is not like “a third world country.”

White House apologizes for Biden comments

The White House apologized Thursday “if anybody was unduly alarmed” by Vice President Joe Biden’s comments that seemed to suggest Americans should avoid air travel or confined spaces of any kind.

“What the vice president meant to say was the same thing that many members have said in the last few days,” White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said. “And that is, if you feel sick, are exhibiting flu-like symptoms….that you should take precautions, that you should limit your travel.”

I’m with Biden.  This pandemic is scary. I wouldn’t want my loved ones traveling, taking mass transit or hanging out in public areas.

Ashley Biden on Coke…Cocaine that is.

A “friend” of Joe Biden’s daughter, Ashley, is shopping around a video recording of the VP daughter allegedly snorting cocaine at a party in Delaware earlier this month.

An American media company offered $250,000 for the footage and access to the person who shot the tape, according to the lawyers.

I’m not sure anyone really cares about Ashley Biden snorting cocaine.  I’m a little disappointed since she is not helping the war on drugs but like I said, it’s not like it’s Sascha or Malia.  That would be a another story…

I wonder if Papa Joe is contemplating his parenting skills and wondering what lead his daughter to ingest such toxic drugs into her body?

Rollin’ with Obama

The Amtrak train carrying President-elect Barack Obama and his entourage has left Philadelphia’s 30th Street Station.  They made a pit-stop in Wilmington, Delaware to pick up the Bidens.  People began gathering at 4:30 a.m. Saturday at the train station in Wilmington  to send Joe Biden off to Washington –the final leg in his journey to the White House.

President-elect Barack Obama isn’t back in Washington yet, but the protesters have lined up to greet and remind him of a host of issues that await the President following the swearing in.

This Inauguration is getting a little out of hand!  Everywhere you go it’s OBAMAMANIA!  Every newspaper, every internet site, every magazine, EVERYTHING is OBAMA NATION!

Doesn’t it feel like Brad Pitt is getting sworn in as President?  Obama is really making this a grand inauguration, with every A-list celeb in the world being invited.  What’s up with that? President or Celebrity?  It kinda does seem like a party Paris Hilton would throw herself – the hype is crazy.

Rumer and I will be off to Washington on Sunday to start covering the Inauguration.
