The Biden No Comment Commentary

There apparently is a radio show called "On Air with Ryan Seacrest" although I have to wonder why that is. Nevertheless, Seacrest had as his guest recently Joe Biden, the vice president of the United States. Seacrest asked Biden if he thought the question to Newt Gingrich about his ex-wife at the last GOP debate went too far. As only Biden could do, the response began with Biden saying that he had no comment; then Biden spoke for 40 seconds on the subject and finally he ended by saying again that he had no comment.

Personally, I do not care what Biden thinks about much of anything, and I doubt if anyone out there really does. Still, it was yet another comical moment for our vice president, the birth of no comment commentary.

I guess that for the guy who just last week went to San Francisco and shouted to the gathering that the Giants would go to the Super Bowl (forgetting that the Giants are in New York, not San Francisco) a no comment commentary is not that big a deal. Still, when someone tallies all the bad moments in the press of the Obama administration, Joe Biden will have the lion's share of the total.
