Government As Standup Comedy: Joe Biden On Leno

… here’s Vice President “Bite Me” opining on Leno about the Russian spy swap, which was obviously planned long in advance of the actual arrest of the ring by the FBI — a ring that, of course, included a prominent journalist.

Why should the Vice President of the United States take a little thing like spying seriously when there are jokes to be made? After all, it’s not like the country is in serious trouble or anything.The anecdote about never questioning another man’s motives, in which Biden actually says something nice about Jesse Helms, is touching, but maybe he should tell it to the boss instead of a studio audience.
