W.H. smacks down Wolffe story

Valerie Jarrett is smacking down Richard Wolffe's report that Vice President Biden insulted her in the transition period by making a joke about her abortive bid for the Senate.

“Any suggestion that I was insulted by the vice president’s gracious comments regarding my potential for public service is ridiculous. I was very flattered by his kind words at the time and enjoy working closely with him in the White House,” Jarrett said in a statement to POLITICO.

PLUS: The White House is rejecting the notion that the Obama-Biden relationship is strained.

“The president’s own comments and the major tasks he’s put on the vice president’s plate speak volumes. A blind quote from a ‘senior aide’ should be given the proper weight: zero,” said Vice President Joe Biden’s spokeswoman Elizabeth Alexander.http://www.politico.com/politico44/perm/0509/jarrett_pushes_back_2a7f6238-2af5-4f1f-a9b5-6e1e67e36c21.html


Hmmm, kind of interesting. I do like Richard Wolffe, I don't think he tried to use the quote to portray Biden in a bad light and make it seem like Obama and Biden don't get along. The guy usually has a good sense of humor. But Faux news did as usual tried to make it seem like Obama is "distracted" by having to discipline Biden or something.

rumors or lies, Wolffe.

And why? Hmm...

I just wish they were this attentive to all the other things I'm concerned about. I want it ALL. I want it right now.

:nopity:
I want a feast.
I want a bean feast!
Cream buns and doughnuts and fruitcake with no nuts
So good you could go nuts

I want a ball
I want a party
Pink macaroons and a million balloons
And performing baboons and ...
Give it to me
Rrhh rhhh
Now!

I want the world
I want the whole world
I want to lock it all up in my pocket
It's my bar of chocolate
Give it to me
Now!

I want today
I want tomorrow
I want to wear 'em like braids in my hair
And I don't want to share 'em

I want a party with room fulls of laughter
Ten thousand tons of ice cream
And if I don't get the things I am after
I'm going to scream!

I want the works
I want the whole works
Presents and prizes and sweets and surprises
Of all shapes and sizes
And now
Don't care how
I want it now
Don't care how
I want it now

.... he's my favorite Countdown pundent.

He has always been great on Countdown.
Are you torn between two loves, Clio? I don't think Richard meant harm, just as Joe does not when he jokes around.

.... while Richard is so cool he has TWO "f's" in his last name, there's no way he has the lap-sitting potential that the Vice President of the United States of America Joe the Hottness has! :)

Here you go Clio, something for you:


I thought these ladies appreciated his visit to their base today in Kosovo. :)

.... Joe Biden gives good lap.

Ok now just stop! We're dangerously off course with this conversation ..... focus!!! DICK! CHENEY! EVEL!!!! DISCUSS!!!!

Okay, deep breath. Cheney is evil. He was a bad VP. Okay, I'm back.

I include bloggers in this group as well, they stretch the truth to get readers. Some do it from a POV that we like, and some stretch the truth more than others. It is how they put food on the table.
