Vice President Joe Biden had his “oops” moment Wednesday speaking in a 49er-crazed SF when he told a crowd at a city political fundraiser that “the Giants are on their way to the Super Bowl.” - SF Chronicle, 1-18-12
VIDEO: Joe Biden criticizes “McCain can’t send an email” ad
Not only that, but he says the ad wouldn’t have run if he had anything to say about it – and implied that Obama didn’t know about it either, in spite of the “I’m Barack Obama and I approved this message” tag included in the ad (via Jon Martin):
Here’s the transcript:
Couric asked: “Are you disappointed with the tone of the campaign? The ‘lipstick on the pig’ stuff, and some of the ads – you guys haven’t been completely guilt-free making fun of John McCain’s inability to use a computer.”
“I thought that was terrible by the way,” Biden said.
“Why did you do it then?” Couric asked.
“I didn’t know we did it and if I had anything to do with it, we would have never done it,” Biden said. “And I don’t think Barack, you know. I just think that was …”
Did Obama approve that ad?
“The answer is I don’t think there was anything intentional about that,” [Biden] said. “They were trying to make another point. That’s very different than deliberately taking a vote Barack Obama had to teach children about how to deal with child-predators and saying he was teaching them sex education in kindergarten. Very different in degree.”
Except, as we all know by now, the McCain ad regarding Barack Obama’s support for comprehensive sex ed for kindergartners was true.
I remember last week how the media jumped all over John McCain’s comments where he sort of refuted his own campaign’s “lipstick on a pig” ad. Will we see them do similarly with Biden regarding his comments on the Obama campaign’s email ad? I won’t hold my breath.

It was not so long ago, that Mr. Obama was bragging about his credentials, and ability to be president, by saying, he was running a campaign with over 2,000 employees….yet ads are being put out there, with the assumption that they have been approved by Mr. Obama, and he knows nothing about the ads, yet is allowing his name , and voice to be used at tandem on these ads?
Wow!!! Mr. Obama….if you aren’t on top of this kind of thing, what makes us think you can be on top of things if you were to be president?
Gee, I didn’t know that when the stock market crashed back in ’29, that Roosevelt went on television to address the nation. I learn something new from Joe Biden every day!
Is this what passes for articulate to these people?? And they make fun of GW.
Joes the anwser is YES, somewhere in that ad it says ” I’m Barry Obama, and I approve this message”. They were trying to ridicule John McCain as being “out of touch” that was the point you were making and it back fired you. Also Joe, get your head out of Barry’s tuckus, unlike Dan Rather, we don’t have fake documents proving what Barry tried, plus he himself said it was the right thing to do, so do us all a favor and shut up. – Lorica
I guess he was against it before he was for it.
