Does anyone remember, during the campaign, the press and TV made a BIG BIG Joke about John McCain not knowing how to use a computer..not mentioning that he has a problem using it due to his broken arms...Have any of you hear about this story below ? ....be honest...
Vice President Joe Biden, tasked with overseeing the $787 billion stimulus package, has been having a little trouble with his "numbers."
During an interview on CBS' "Early Show" on Wednesday, Biden told viewers to check out a government-run Web site tracking stimulus spending, but admitted he was embarrassed because he couldn't remember the site's "number."
"You know, I'm embarrassed. Do you know the Web site number?" he asked an aide standing out of view. "I should have it in front of me and I don't. I'm actually embarrassed."
Biden, who seemed to indicate that he thought the Internet worked like a giant telephone, sounded an unusually Luddite note inside an administration often heralded for its mastery of the Web.

Thank you Ron for your comment....guess after "W" left office all jokes should have stoped...since they made a movie about the previous president and they called it "W"...in the sense of Fair and Balanced, I should also refer to the person in the "WHITE HOUSE" by his initials, I will therefore going forward refer to the individual living at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave as B.O.as the saying goes, what comes around, goes around...."GOD BLESS AMERICA"
hi
how could he forget something important like tht......sounds weird.........hope he's not getting sick..........
Maybe he was asking for the IP address? Haha. I agree it is pretty sad. You have to admit it is nice having a tech-savy, blackberry-wearing president though. Let's just hope Biden remains the VP and never becomes president. Since you asked, yes I did hear of that story (then again, I spend an unhealthy amount of time reading the news).
