Joe Biden has been known in Washington circles for years as a man with an uncanny ability to put his foot firmly in his mouth. Sometimes he just really has a way with words.
Today's Los Angeles Times has a short article about the number of private meetings Vice President Biden has held recently. The article points out:
"And we've wondered aloud how this Democratic VP's private meetings with unnamed people on unnamed subjects differs from the private meetings with unnamed people that his evil predecessor had that got so many Democratic senators and representatives worried about nefarious secrets."
The article states that the Vice President's office is describing many of his meetings as not 'private that are closed press', but simply as 'closed press'. It's good to know that the Vice President is not having any more private meetings. It is also encouraging to know that the Vice President's staff is as language-challenged as some of the rest of us!
