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 Thursday, April 30th at 9:46AM EDT (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 Thursday, April 30th at 2:12PM EDT (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.

Just plain stupid
smitch61 Thursday, April 30th at 10:18AM EDT (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

So in Obama’s tortured logic - Biden was the ONLY choice and now we see why.

red4ever Thursday, April 30th at 11:41AM EDT (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.
