Another Biden Screw Up

Recommended Posts

Looks like Joe Biden, in his interview with Katie Couric, was copying off the wrong classmate’s exam again. He said (video here):

“When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on the television and didn’t just talk about the princes of greed. He said, ‘look, here’s what happened.’”

My recollection is that the stock market crash was in 1929. Two problems here: Television did not even exist in 1929, and FDR was elected in 1932, so he wasn’t even the leader at the time of the crash. When Joe was in history class, was he cheating by looking over the class dunce’s shoulder, or does he just make this stuff up? Of course, TV celebrity Katie Couric also didn’t note that Biden’s statement was doubly incorrect. Her goal was a softball puff piece.”

Now, if a Republican had said this.....it would be another Dan Quayle and "potatoe"

McCain has made such gaffes concerning Iran's backing of Al Qaeda, where Spain was, forgetting about the breakup of Czechoslovakia, the "Iraq-Pakistan border" etc. Indeed, CBS went to some lengths to hide his gaffe on the surge when he was interviewed.

I suspect Biden will get as much a pass on his gaffe that McCain has gotten on his.

The first public demonstration of television was by John Logie Baird in Hastings, England in 1923. An official blue plaque marks the house where this took place. Hastings Museum hold various pieces of related correspondence. A further demonstration subsequently took place in a department store, Selfridges, in London England, by Mr Baird himself. This took place in 1925.

The first concept of the television was a sketch done by a 14-year-old farm boy named Philo T. Farnsworth in 1922. On September 7, 1927, he finally created a television system that could not only display, but transmit signals between seperate rooms. (

Franklin D. Roosevelt was the first president to speak on television. Roosevelt spoke at the opening session of the New York World's Fair on April 30, 1939.

The first presidential address broadcast from the White House was Harry S. Truman's speech about food conservation and the world food crisis on Oct. 5, 1947.

Another ALW screw up! Good thing you're not running for vice president, or there would be dozens of stories about how you were unfit for the job due to a typo.

No it would be due to plagarism - cut and paste. Who knew. I'm just lucky I know how to use a computer at my age. But Check out the link just for fun. ;)

>Biden will definitely suffer an brain aneurysm right on stage during the debate.

Perhaps! I can see Biden explaining his take on the policy implications caused by the growth of Russia, and then have his head explode when Palin says "but you can't see Russia from your house!"

If that works, so be it, easy work.B|

If it did work, would that not be an ingenious tactic?
