Politics, open government, and safe streets. And the constant incursion of cycling.

Biden Comes to Town

Looks like Vice President Joe Biden will be coming to Virginia for a bit of politicking.  I did recently get an invite for a reception with him and Creigh Deeds, for the low low price of $1000 per person.  Pass, thanks.  In any event, I wonder how well Biden will translate for VA politics.  Personally?  I like the guy.  Yes, he’s a little full of himself, but he doesn’t suffer fools gladly.  He’s also pretty goddamn smart.  And those, of course, are two strikes against any politician in Virginia.

  1. “he’s a little full of himself, but he doesn’t suffer fools gladly.”

    What an amazingly self-contradictory observation. If the latter were true, he’d be full of self-loathing.

  2. I did find his idea to split Iraq into 3 parts to be a good idea. not sure how else you’re gonna have peace among people who hate each other. of course it won’t happen due to oil politics
