Must be a slow news day

[PatSeg]

I turn on the TV and Nora O'Donnell is talking about JOE! Spent an awful lot of time focusing on his "gaffes". They did mention that Joe is in Lebanon, but went right to gaffe-prone Biden complete with replays of past mistakes.

Geez....................

1. Jackeens has a photo thread of Biden in Lebanon - that'll cheer ya up :)

[PatSeg]

2. Thanks

Yeah, that definitely will help.

3. WTF - why would she do that?

I read an op-ed from Malaysia (?) right after the media went after Joe for his swine flu remarks, and they couldn't believe how little respect Americans have for their public officials.

Between that, and the Israeli news saying they don't have to listen to Biden....

I am so pissed!

[PatSeg]

4. So we have to go overseas

to get any news about our VP!

5. I sent you a message on fb to turn on the BBC - they did a nice segment on Biden

and why he was there. I'm pretty sure BBC will be on again later. Channel 135 on Dish.

7. I got your message

but I was on the phone.

6. hey, I thought to look at Al Jazeera:

similar to other sources (Hezbollah doesn't like implied threat of pulling aid)

In each country there are a mix of people who love and hate Biden. None of them are talking about gaffes.

[PatSeg]

8. I guess they have more important

issues to focus on.

9. Amazing, isn't it? I like how someone in gdp said if it was Palin on this trip

the media would be all over this...

but Palin doesn't have any influence with world leaders, and Joe does.
And why exactly, wouldn't the msm care about what this administration is doing to prevent terrorism from further spreading?
I am dumbfounded.

10. Jim Lehrer - PBS - not only reported on it but also showed a clip of Joe giving a speech.

I am SO done with Rachel and Keith - all they talk about are the shiny objects of the day.

BBC and PBS from now on.
