About this ebook
But would she have given us so many priceless verbal gaffes? George W. Bush has left the White House, but Vice President Joe Biden continues his hilarious legacy of memorable misstatements and spoken-word screw-ups.
“Look, John (McCain)’s last-minute economic plan does nothing to tackle the number one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three-letter word: jobs. J-O-B-S, jobs.”
“Stand up, Chuck, let ’em see ya.” (to Missouri state senator Chuck Graham, who is in a wheelchair)
Sh*t My Vice President Says captures every entertaining gem, with extra special commentary and a selection of winning quips from Biden’s silver-tongued compatriots, such as Nancy Pelosi, Rahm Emanuel, and more!

It’s no secret that my name has become a political football ever since I campaigned for the presidency. Obviously, when my parents named me they never imagined I’d run for president.
I mean, what are the odds that the last name of the dictator we just overthrew and my middle name—Hussein—would be the same? Talk about your tough luck! (What if Harry Truman’s middle name had been Hitler?) To top it off, my first name isn’t a word that most Americans have ever heard of. Let’s be clear: It’s unlikely that Barack
ever topped the Most Popular Baby Names list in this country. Not to mention how some of those BIRTHER people can’t have enough fun with the fact that Obama
rhymes with Osama.
Everybody’s a comedian, right?
So, with all this name baggage, you can see how important it was that I be introduced properly on official occasions. David Axelrod and my other consultants thought this was especially true at the start of the campaign.
As soon as we had picked Joe Biden for my running mate in the ’08 election, we scheduled a rally in Springfield, Illinois—my home state. That, of course, is the home of Abe Lincoln, Rod Blagojevich, and so on.
At the time, it made sense to entrust my introduction to Joe Biden. After all, as vice president he wouldn’t have that much to do. Why not let him start off by making sure people heard my name correctly.
That was the plan. Here’s what happened . . .
