James Lileks has a great piece up today at the New York Post on Joe Biden and his “terrible truths” contained in his many gaffes. Here’s a taste read the whole thing:
What Biden meant to say, in his puckish way, that they misunderstood what an economy is, and how it works. Piling up a mountain of proposed taxes, mandates, regulations, do-nothing programs and pork unseen in such dimensions since Pink Floyd floated a dirigible pig over an outdoor concert might, in fact, prevent recovery.
So do not criticize him; applaud his palaver, and hope for more. Biden’s “gaffes” are anything but — they’re simply what the administration is really thinking. Truer words have never been babbled.
Joe Biden is the Greek Chorus of this Administration — the retarded Greek Chorus. The main problem, though, is his boss thinks he’s the deus ex machina. At least Il Douche — in his sober (!) retarded verbal flatulence gives us a look behind the skene of this unfolding tragi-comedy.

Greek Chorus…hahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was awesome. No kidding.
I’m so proud to be able to call James Lileks a close personal friend. And by friend, I mean acquaintance. And by acquaintance, I mean someone with mutual acquaintances. And by someone with mutual acquaintances, I mean we drink water from the same aquifer.
I feel the exact same way about Hugh Hewitt.
I’ve been very proud of my friendship with Sir Issac Newton, and by friendship I mean we once lived on the same planet.
I once had an interesting conversation about ghost stories with Andrew Klavan at a Liberty Film Fest/Horowitz Freedom Center event (when Appuzo & company were on speaking terms). Does that mean I can count him as a close friend?
You guys crack me up.
I don’t know if I’d be proud, Lars. That aquifer had rain water leached into it from when Genghis Kahn took a leak in the desert and it evaporated and eventually came back to earth. Better brush your teeth.
Talking to libs and conservatives alike, a look of panic sets in at the notion that some idiot has his way in assassinating Obama and we’re somehow guided by Super Joe’s whit and wisdom. Not that I wish ill will on the President, but I wouldn’t break a sweat. In my experience, far too little separates those who are smart but not smart enough to know their own limitations and those who are dumb and at least know it – given Biden is smart enough to know how stupid he is. That may take a gigantic leap of faith.
