i don't think i'll watch this one. honestly, i don't know why the two veep candidates debate. john adams said it best when he was the very first, serving as geo. washingtons vice-president.

"the most insignificant office that ever the invention of man contrived or his imagination conceived."

John Nance Garner described the office as "not worth a pitcher of warm piss"

Except that's not the role of several modern Vice Presidents, including Biden.

Biden, unlike many of his predecessors, is on every single important staff meeting with the President, and has his ear.

In fact, Biden single-handedly supervised the drawdown of troops and the end of the war in Iraq, going there once a month there since the election and reporting back to the President (leaving SOS Clinton free to turn her attention elsewhere).

Completely different than the outsider, ceremonial position you described.

Paul Ryan wrote the Republican Party budget, the budget that will destroy this nation with debt and end Medicare and Social Security as we know it.

Yah, don't waste your time on useless endeavors.

It's a shame our citizens are so uninformed.

It's lucky that Obama doesn't always take Biden's advice. If he did, Osama Bin Laden would still be alive. Biden was against the mission that killed Bin Laden.

Where did you hear that? It's impossible. How could he have been against something that he had no knowledge of? How could he have been against a mission that he didn't know existed?

Where did you come up with that?

It wasn't Faux News...:D

I think there some commercial with Bill Clinton that the Democrats were running where Clinton was saying that he didn't think Romney would have gone after Bin Laden. Maybe that is what Ateam was referring to. I guess if Bill Clinton say that he doesn't think Romney would have killed Bin Laden, then it must be true.

Romney would not have killed Bin Laden. Do you know how I know? Bill Clinton said so. LOL.

I guess the rationale was that there was some Romney interview where he was asked about Bin Laden, terrorism, and the war on terror, etc. Romney said something to the effect that it wasn't just about one guy (Bin Laden), and that there was more to the war on terror than just killing Bin Laden. The democrats then twisted that into "Romney would not have gone after Bin Laden."

yeah, romney made a comment that it wasn't worth all the money paid out to get him.

" ...April 2007 Romney quote on bin Laden, in which he told the Associated Press “it’s not worth moving heaven and earth spending billions of dollars just trying to catch one person."


of course, he also wants to get rid of the pbs money ($300 million annually) to help balance the budget. but hands off the money ($41 billion annually) that subsidizes the oil industry. there's logic for ya.
