Another Genius Moment from Joe Biden

Last night in his first speech before a joint session of Congress, President Barack Obama told the nation that he was placing  Vice Pres. Biden in charge of overseeing the spending of the $787 billion stimulus package. Obama said he was picking Biden for the job “because nobody messes with Joe”. This brought a huge grin to the Veep’s face and a standing applause by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, who hopped up and down throughout the speech like an out of control jack-in-the-box.

Well, maybe nobody messes with Joe but it seems that Joe doesn’t mess with learning about the job he’s been handed. This morning, when V.P. Biden was asked on CBS to provide the name of the recovery website which has been set up to show the American people how the stimulus money is being spent, Biden said he didn’t know the “website number”. Website number? After looking off-camera and asking a staffer, he finally comes back with the answer (recovery.gov). It’s nice to know that our money is in safe hands with Joe.
