Will Obama dump Joe Biden?

It's always amazed me how many people try to claim they voted for Obama because they thought Sarah Palin was too dumb to be president.  Really?  Joe Biden is a functional retard, and Obama can't be very bright himself if he thought Biden would be anything other than a tremendous embarrassment.

Meanwhile, Palin was the only person on either ticket in 2008 who had any executive experience at all, and she proved she could hold her own against Biden in a debate.  I relish the thought of Biden having to face off against Paul Ryan... we can surely expect Ryan to run circles around Biden, unless Obama dumps Biden to put someone else on the ticket.  But I really doubt that Obama is smart enough to do that or humble enough to admit it was a mistake to ever pick Biden in the first place.

Obama lied, pensions died!

Ace brought the flaming skull out for this one.

Remember when the Obama administration tried to blame the PBGC for screwing non-union Delphi workers out of their pensions?  As it turns out, not so much... the PBGC wasn't even allowed to attend the meeting where this decision was made.  Aside from the unseemliness of Obama looking out for his union backers while making sure everyone else gets shafted, we also have the issue of whether or not Timothy Geithner's exclusion of PBGC was a violation of the law... the PBGC is supposed to be making these decisions, not merely acting as the scapegoat for decisions made at the Department of the Treasury.

By the way, did any of those non-union Delphi employees happen to have wives who later died of cancer?  I'm asking for a friend.
