It’s embarrassing. Not just that Joe Biden has no natural teeth or hair; it’s just the whole idea that he has no arguments.
As he’s fond of saying, “A day without ideas is like a Tuesday, I think.” At least President Obama knew when he was bowing to Saudi kings. They were somehow superior beings. Unfortunately for all of us now, Joe seems to think everyone he meets is a superior being. That’s why some of us call him Jobama because whatever he does know about his job, he learned from his former boss, who also never thought too highly of Joe, the poor old thing. So for Jobama, essentially, the job is bowing to kings and, more recently, kowtowing to the men who look like the men who used to iron his shirts in the Chinese laundry.
Staffers bring Jobama sweeping, complex legislation to sign. Without a thought for the people or how these royal decrees will affect the people. Never underestimate Joe’s ability to fuck things up.” Like I said, embarrassing.
But not for Jobama as he mumbles happily to perhaps friendly elves sitting nearby and, lucky duck, finds another pen thoughtfully placed on the desk next to the Executive Order. He looks at the pen with happy wonder for a moment and signs his lunch voucher or hall pass, or whatever it is they have for him today, and bows to the camera assistant standing nearby who seems surprised.
Now, the superior beings for whom Joe works may find this amusing – the obedient old grifter punching in for his 30-minute workday. Still, many of us find it problematic because we don’t know who, exactly, Jobama works for. We have to guess they are the same people who kept him locked in his cellar during the campaign for the White House, but then some of us think they must be those men who look like the men who used to iron his shirts.
