TAIBBI: 'Joe Biden Was Right to Laugh-We All Should Be Laughing At Their BEADY-EYED-BS-isms'

The Vice Presidential Debate: Joe Biden Was Right to Laugh

I’ve never thought much of Joe Biden. But man, did he get it right in last night’s debate, and not just because he walloped sniveling little Paul Ryan on the facts. What he got absolutely right, despite what you might read this morning (many outlets are criticizing Biden’s dramatic excesses), was his tone. Biden did absolutely roll his eyes, snort, laugh derisively and throw his hands up in the air whenever Ryan trotted out his little beady-eyed BS-isms.

But he should have! He was absolutely right to be doing it. We all should be doing it. That includes all of us in the media, and not just paid obnoxious-opinion-merchants like me, but so-called "objective" news reporters as well. We should all be rolling our eyes, and scoffing and saying, "Come back when you're serious."

The load of balls that both Romney and Ryan have been pushing out there for this whole election season is simply not intellectually serious. Most of their platform isn't even a real platform, it's a fourth-rate parlor trick designed to paper over the real agenda – cutting taxes even more for super-rich dickheads like Mitt Romney, and getting everyone else to pay the bill.

2. Laughing at them is one of the best responses.

I always laugh at anyone who says "I'm for Rmoney" or "Obama is a communist" or "Obama is a Muslim" or "Obama wasn't born in the US". I just laugh at them like I have pity on them for their stupidity. It's better then getting all pissed off at them.

4. Love this:

"So much of the Romney/Ryan plan is so absurdly junior league, it's so far off-Broadway, it's practically in New Jersey."

6. Taibbi is 110% (or more correct)

The media, Democrats, and just us regular folks do our nation and the world a huge disservice by even pretending the TeaPubliKlans are serious, have anything meaningful to add, or even in their feverish imaginings have the interests of the country or our citizens in mind.

That should be scoffed at with rolling eyes, called stupid liars to their faces, and dismissed like dull witted and unruly children on their best days, declared dangerously stupid on the regular ones, and described as wicked and foolish on their worst days.

Being a joke the TeaPubliKlans should be laughed at and being clearly delusional and out of kilter with reality they should be called stupid, being intellectually powered by crooks, liars, and hateful fucks they should be called evil and called such without a flinch or an iota of doubt.

If that pisses off their soft headed "leaners" then good because they only "lean" until election day and vote for irreconcilably silly bullshit, obvious lies, and cruelty wrapped up in an extra large flag pin, a mockery of Christ in the role of Free Market Jaysus, and tax avoidance for the wealthy under the guise of "helping small business".

For the American people, there is no winning the game of beltway bullshit. Those that represent us play the game at our risk whether they win their races or not.
Pretending mile high horse shit is even remotely credible is pretending that big pile of crap is fillet mignon or at least hamburger and is a form of playing along. Laughing at their bullshit fairy tales and calling them on it till the cows come home is the right thing to do-win, lose, or draw.
