If President Obama wishes to handle this crisis by sending Vice President Biden to an undisclosed location until it’s over, well, sacrifices must be made.

PS: Watch the video that Pej found above: it’s not every day where you see what is effectively a pet media organ of the Democratic party call for closing the border. And watch for the gaffe at about 5:15. Freudian slip there, Joe?

Don't ride the subway?
Brian Hibbert (Diary) Thursday, April 30th at 9:46AM EST (link)Wasn’t Biden the champion of taking the trains to work? Doesn’t he push public transportation as the solution to many of our energy problems? How does he expect people who listened to him and sold their cars to get to work now?

A subway to Mexico?
Flagstaff (Diary) Thursday, April 30th at 2:12PM EST (link)Now ol’ Joe says he was only talking about travel to Mexico.
No wonder it’s so easy to cross the border–there’s a subway line!
Maybe that’s where you find those “closed containers” Joe mentioned that are such popular travel vehicles these days.
“The press is so powerful in its image-making role that it can make a criminal look like he’s the victim and make the victim look like he’s the criminal. If you aren’t careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”– Malcolm X, Audubon Ballroom, December 13, 1964

And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.
Just plain stupid
smitch61 Thursday, April 30th at 10:18AM EST (link)Thanks for the video, not a gaffe, just plain stupid….. I guess the Democratic party in PA is not in line with his thinking…. He is a leftist perhaps? I don’t even get embarrassed for him or the president anymore when either one of them speak.
Biden?

vice president is anyway so most won’t notice.

Biden is the perfect doormat
izoneguy (Diary) Thursday, April 30th at 10:29AM EST (link)and distraction that Obama needs. Why do you think Obama picked him? Obama could not have a VP who would actually show him up.
So in Obama’s tortured logic – Biden was the ONLY choice and now we see why.

At the time Gerald Ford was named Vice President,

red4ever (Diary) Thursday, April 30th at 11:41AM EST (link)During the Cuban Missile Crisis, the First Family stayed in Washington. If they left it would cause a panic. There was no point in creating an unnecessary panic that would make the situation worse.
Fast forward to 2009, with a flu that has fewer cases than regular flu. The VP announces that he is panicking his family. What do you think people will do now? It’s not even in most states. But now people will be convinced they will get it if they go outside.
The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in times of great moral crisis, maintain their neutrality.
