Ha ha ha darling cub reporter Damon Weaver is the next Liz Glover! Joe Biden totally treats this wee child like a normal press person — invading his personal space, saying “literally” when he means “figuratively,” and promising that President Barack Obama will start a million foreign wars as soon as he’s in office. The Biden part of the video starts around 3:30 and is just absurdly cute. [YouTube via Prose Before Hos]

see now this is how you do a hard hitting expose. Thoes florida reporters could learn a thing or three right her. training video
Did that child/reporter call it a “Channel Five cracker phone” at about 1:20?
I just hope that GOP attack dog doesn’t molest this nice little boy’s Microphone like poor Liz’s at the RNC. No child should be exposed to that horror.
Yeah, that’s your liberal media for ya’. He’s in the tank.
Joe goes on so long, the poor kid’s arm almost gives out while holding up the mic.
Wrap, Joe, wrap.
Tip of the cap to Fukingredneck who posted this last night…
DAMON IS IN THE TANK! BTW, this kid is better than the entire cast of Fox & Friends.
At least he learned the most important lesson before interviewing Biden: Keep your hands and mic away from his mouth…
[re=150188]whiteasasheet[/re]: Or rather,fuckinredneck..
You’ll notice that Biden had the kid in a Vulkan Death Grip for about 2/3 of that interview to ensure that he wouldn’t be asked any tough questions, like how exactly Barack Obama’s Bolskevik revolution will see the running dog capitalists thrown in jail and cement popular ownership of the means of production.
Meh, kid, you call this an interview? You’ve got to demand that he disavow a quote from Stalin.
[re=150187]hockeymom[/re]: It’s that kid’s own fault for inviting Biden to talk. Rookie mistake.
I’m liking Joe Biden’s style. What’s so maddening about a Sarah Palin interview for me is that Sarah the moran quarterwit (sic) thinks she’s so smart, views the interviewer as a halfwit and patronizes/lectures them.
This is so great. I love the freeze frame at the end.
Did I hear Joe the Biden call him “Damien”?
[re=150187]hockeymom[/re]: No kidding–little Damon’s little arm was drooping lower and lower during Biden’s answer.
Joe the Biden really knows how to work a room, though.
I love that kid! Damon Weaver for Sean Hannity’s job, toute de suite! Next assignment: Interview the Snowbilly : “Why did you give birth so many children on that Bridge to Nowhere?”
wait wait, i thought the VP ruled over the senate. dictatorial-style!
It is heartwarming to see a young black child, inspired by a national candidate’s leadership, success, and popularity, make an early career choice in the same direction (Sarah Palin’s).
[re=150196]Serolf Divad[/re]: Biden would have asked, “Damon, who writes your questions?” and then ripped his shoulder off, an option he didn’t have during the split screen interview with the nutty blonde.
You can see the fear in Biden’s face as he briefly considers whether or not he’s consenting to a Wonder Showzen interview.
>>Did I hear Joe the Biden call him “Damien”?
Oh shi-
Wonkette, hire this young man!
Biden better check to make sure “that one” didn’t take his wallet.
Why won’t Biden won’t run the Senate?!? I thought the VP ran the senate?!? WTF?!?
Damon is SO cute!!! This is going to make me all broody again.
Say hi, Lamarr!
Everyone knows the VP is a special fourth branch of government, not accountable to the other three, responsible for preparing the world for the rapture.
Screw how cute Damon is, check out ol’ silver fox bideywidey.
joe biden is my homeboy.
This is absurdly adorable. I love it.
This is heart warming! I don’t come here for heart warming. I come here for cold, cynical snark at everyone and liveblog drinking games.
Damon and Omari the camera operator were wonderful. Great story!
And great school, too.
I am so excited about voting for my Joey next week!!!!
I want Damon doing election night coverage with Keith Olberman.
This is slightly off topic, and just my opinion, and I’m not looking to start a debate but after a while, snarky racism starts to resemble racism pretty closely when the same snarky racist jokes are repeated again and again. Again, not looking to start a fight or put people on the defensive, just stating my own opinion.
Can we find more Damon Weavers are replace some of the dumb fucks on CNN? pretty please!
Damon’s cuteness is ruining my espresso buzz.
[re=150238]HuskyMescan[/re]:
or just one specific anchor in florida.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=neJAroXH4Mg
[re=150236]StripesAndPlaids[/re]: No no – Damon with Chris Matthews! Just to hear Damon say “Shut it, honky!”
[re=150238]HuskyMescan[/re]: are = to, …fail.
Damon Weaver 360, amiright?
damon weaver for wonkette editor 2024!!1!
He’s just covering this rally because of his race.
Damn Biden, you can’t even get through an interview with a kid without using the word “literally.” Guh.
Where can I get my “Senator Biden is My Homeboy” bumbersticker? A+, Damon.
[re=150237]JoeFannyPack[/re]: you know if i were a muslin i would come over there and rip your infidel testicles off, sautee them in some hummus then feed them to you with a nice juicy lamburger so count this as your nickels worth of free advice
Oh look, video evidence of Joe Biden collaborating with an ACORN field operative.
[re=150237]JoeFannyPack[/re]: gotcha!!
[re=150237]JoeFannyPack[/re]: Yeah, I can see your point. I guess I’ll save my edgier snark for Stormfront.
My heart may explode with mirth after watching that sweet little indoctrinational propaganda piece.
Granted Biden didn’t suggest anything as moronic as being “in charge of the senate”, but this isn’t too far off from what Palin said.
The steadily lowering microphone is such a glorious journalistic tool, even if the kid is unaware of it. He has really managed to completely encapsulate Joe the Biden in one two-minute interview. “Yeah, he seems nice, he knows his shit, and man, he talks a lot. I’m Damon the Kid Journalist, live from homeroom.”
We need to get young Damon to grill Camp McFailin on their loathing of Keynesian economics.
[re=150226]tremendous[/re]:
Honestly, if he keeps talking like he did in that interview with the Florida reporter, I’d do him.
Aww, that made me smile. I love watching kids drool over Barry/Biden. They’re just miniature versions of adults who drool over Barry/Biden but cuter.
[re=150269]monty[/re]: too late…its already been done.
At the point where Biden talks about how the vice president gives the president feedback and his opinion, I can imagine Obama watching this and thinking “this guy’s going to go on and on and talk my ear off for the next four years.”
I am pitching a teevee show where Biden and Damon travel the country solving mysteries. Also there’s a monkey that helps them.
Wonkette, you’re my homeboy.
It’s a uplifting thought that the young man depicted will, ideally, not have to face the Crushing Burden African-American boys have faced for generations.
That’s right: The burden of having raving lunatics like Sister Truth letting him what to think.
It’s A Better, Brighter Day In America . . . .
“telling him,” rather.
Too. Early. Not. Enough. Coffee.
I thought Obama was taller.
So neither VP candidate can come up with “break ties in the senate”? Our future is fucked.
It’s hard to believe Uncle Joe rattled off that sentence without a breath stop. Apparently, he has the ability to surreptitiously breathe and speak at the same time. Holy Plastic Jesus.
[re=150346]Mista Eko[/re]: Yeah. Literally. Only, the VP does that very rarely, so it can’t be the his main function. What is the VP’s main disfunction, or core incompetency, one wonders?
[re=150326]Neilist[/re]: Crushing Burden? nah. Crushing Biden. Perhaps.
[re=150326]Neilist[/re]: I am compelled to tell you that we are in a very bad tank (Sister Truth, you, I, and the Harlem Snarktrotters).
cf. http://wonkette.com/403834/please-walnuts-take-a-nap-take-a-long-nap#comment-150025
DO read that.
You know, it’s a good thing that kid went to a biden rally rather than a palin rally or we’d have us one cute dead kid.
Scarab: And slightly less of a boring blowhard.
WEAVER/BIDEN ’48!
“senator biden is now my homeboy” : start printing up the t-shirts now.
“…where Senator Joe Biden will be giving a famous speech.”
In the tank.
[re=150394]facehead[/re]: Thanks, Face, I missed that.
I guess nowadays we’re all “Tony The Tigers.”
:::Sigh:::
Too bad, too. I had some great ones all ready to fire off.
[re=150212]LaFinDuMondale[/re]: !!! love the WS reference
The cuteness. It threatens to consume me.
“We spent about 5 great hours at the Palm Beach Convention Center…”
words never been spoken before nor since.
Biden left out the part where his real job is to hang around like a creepy ghoul in case somebody shoots Barack. I guess Damon will find out about that part when he’s a little older.
Neilist: I know you hate black people, but do you have use a little boy to exorcise your racism? Can’t you just shut up and go to your kkk meeting. The good news is we don’t have to worry about reading your stupidity much longer because you are going to kill yourself when Obama wins this election next week. We know can’t stand the idea of a black president. (I suggest you boil yourself to death a la Mandingo, your favorite movie.) But maybe all is not lost, maybe there’s just enough time for you to and John McCain purge this little boy’s entire family from the voter rolls. Call up your sister Sarah Palin so she can show you how it’s done. Honestly, I hope black people are keeping their children away from you. Do you have black people buried in your basement?
Wait, I’ve got it!! Neilist, are you the one who murdered Jennifer Hudson’s 7-year old nephew? I just solved the mystery. Please stop attacking black children. It’s not their fault you’re pathologically racist. Honey, get help and stop writing about me and other black people.
Seriously, stop cyber-harassing me and go to a therapist. You’re psychotic, and you’re boring. Leave me alone.
To the non-psychotic and non-white supremacist people: Democracy is alive and well and in the 5th grade!! Damon is adorable. (Protect him from Neilist.) There’s an entire web site of the political videos produced by this little boy’s class, and his teacher is going to try to get Damon an interview with Obama. To see more cuties who are better reporters than anybody on cable news, here is the link to the class site. http://www.youtube.com/CanalPointKECTV
Joe Biden is everybody homeboy!
oops typo and correction: Joe Biden is everybody’s homeboy!!
I wish all the reporters would wear Obama/Biden pins so we would know for sure that they were in the tank.
[re=150866]StupidGeek[/re]: Man that is one big fucking tank. I would be very afraid if it were coming my way…
I love Joe Biden and his big ol’ mouth too!! LITERALLY!!
