Both Bidens will now be immortalized by SNL. This is one gaffe that will keep on giving for at least the next four years.
I wonder if it was meant to be a gaff?? Or if foot in mouth disease is really contagious??
I’m sure since she is a Dem she will be given a pass for her verbal “mistakes”….. unlike the vile , divisive comments on this site about Sarah Palin that are made consistantly on this site.
I will say it likely was a slip of the tongue and ..in her “elevated position” she should know better.
She might want to watch her back when Hillary is in the room…she might find a knife in it if not careful! Especially since her own husband said she was a better candidate than BHO..when it served his own purpose.
I didn’t see the show — but, you’ve got to wonder — what on earth was the purpose of that statement, even if it were true. I’m thinking there is some sort of power play thing going on here…..maybe Hillary is getting more media attention and fawning by the members of Congress than Joe and it doesn’t sit well…….so Jill wants to make sure everyone knows good ole Joe had his pick of the two jobs. This comment was very disappointing and potentially divisive while the rest of the country is focusing on uniting.
JIll Biden slipped, she’s not a public person, I bet it ruined her evening, and I feel for her. So, in the grand scheme of things, is this an earth shattering occurrence? I think not, but I could tell she could have climbed into a hole and stayed there.
actually she sounds like a person who loves her husband and wants to spend time with him. I am sure Hillary has more important stuff on her plate than to worry about with Jill said.
Darn I missed it! Well we see if she learns from this mistake or is a lady to not have on shows?
The video is on this thread. Watch it Deb. It is clearly a passionate moment in which she is explaining how they discussed the offer as a family. Not meant to be malicious or gossipy. Refreshingly innocent. But a faux pas nonetheless.
Of course, I’m not watching tv, I’m listening to talk radio, and it was just announced that at this event, there are people with signs saying “Murder George Bush”! I know many on here will laugh, because of their hatred for President Bush, but to me, it’s a disgrace that on this day of hope that everyone is so proud of, that this really taints it.
I agree..but not surprised. Bush Derrangement Syndrome has exposed alot of nuts. It is in appropriate for ANY day..not just today!
Very well said…just as I hate to see Venezuela burning posters of Obama and celebrating. Chavez says Obama has “stench” of Bush…(google it for those that want to know facts)! When we have Americans holding signs for the world to see what people think of “our” President, then it is a “sad day for America”!
What do you expect coming from the wife of the guy who claimed that Roosevelt went on TV the day the stock market crash? Not to mention all his racist gaffs….
SNL has their scripts written from here on out Beth. This is just the beginning!
I can’t believe she said that! Now that she is the wife of a Vice President, she is going to have to learn discretion. What she said may indeed be true, but she should have realized the firestorm of conversation that comment would unleash.
