The Last Time The POTUS Spoke To The UN General Assembly

The assembled laughed at him. And he was, amazingly, too clueless to realize he was the joke. "Biden closes his UN speech...and gets big applause." I do not miss the laughter at all.

  1. This comes right at the point where the "news media" seem to be getting bored of Joe Biden and are starting up the carping and predicting and dismissing and ignoring that they always do to weaken or disempower or weaken Democratic presidents. Something I first learned during the piddling, by todays standard of corruption nothing "Bobby Baker scandal" aimed at LBJ. With Carter it started fast, at first making his Southern origin a tool to diminish him - Billy Carter didn't help much - and with Clinton it was anything they could dig up - Bill Clinton didn't help. With Obama it was his race and his reluctance to do anything very risky or bold, his reluctance to do anything risky didn't help.

    I have learned over the years to appreciate LBJ and Carter far more than I did at the time, Clinton and Obama not nearly as much, I don't remember having so much respect for a president as I do Biden, after openly wishing he wouldn't run for president, which may be the most surprising lesson of my old age for me.
