Interesting! Chris Matthews is with the Bidens in the Middle East.

Jill is also there.

Maybe Joe has heard Matthews publicly defend him, praise him.
I can't remember Tweety ever traveling with a dignitary oversees before - do any of you??

I'm definitely going to be watching Hardball this week.

1. Well, that's interesting

Hopefully, he can manage not to be too annoying.

[jillan]

2. Hahaha - you are so funny. Personally - I can't stand Tweety.

I usually shut him off, and never will understand why msnbc has his show on twice.

I'm sure Joe will be able to handle him...but poor Jill. Tweety seems like such a male chauvinist pig - and that is not going to sit well with Jilly.

3. Oh, he'll probably do his

major ass-kissing routine, which can get nauseating after a while, not to mention it comes across as insincere. He just doesn't seem capable of moderation. At least we can be pretty sure that he won't be talking over our VP and his wife. He can be so rude to his guests.

Oh I think Jill can handle him quite well! Could be very interesting.

4. You know, I'm thinking this was a strategic move

on the White House's part. This will give them some very positive mainstream exposure and Tweety will be a friend for life. He is so easy to flatter.

5. i guess this means they took Joe off of his leash,

Not only is he traveling with one of the great drama queens of the msm (drama king?), but he is doing so half way around the world :P

Anyway - I will be watching - they keep advertising it on msnbc. And I can't wait to see Joe!

[PatSeg]

8. Yeah, I think he's off the leash

Right now Rahm is getting most of the negative attention and Joe is looking really good.

[jillan]

6. Save your time - Biden will be on Tues nite.

[PatSeg]

7. I'll still watch Hardball

It should be interesting to see how Matthews handles it. I have a feeling he's going to be on his best behavior.
