What? You people act like you've never seen a damn butterfly before.GAFFER TO MAKE REMARKS AT GAFFE FESTIVAL: Uh oh: “Vice President Joe Biden will attend the Special Olympics World Winter Games in Idaho on Thursday, the White House has confirmed.” He will deliver opening remarks, too, and we wish his staffers the best of luck trying to keep him on-script. (“Where I comes from, ‘special’ means a goddamn different thing entirely,” etc.) [Idaho Statesman]

OH, NOES!

“I’m from the Gafferment and I’m here to help you.”

Don’t forget where he exhorts the little Down Syndromers to ‘stand up, look alert & don’t put the bread at the bottom of the grocery sack.’

“I haven’t seen this many people who didn’t know the whole alphabet since the RNC convention. What?”

Min February 9, 2009 at 5:36 pm

This has got to be the punchline to an incredibly tasteless joke.

Will he ask the wheelchair bound athletes to get up on their feet for a standing ovation?

Contain yourself, Joe! You won’t win the Oscar if you go full retard.

BillyClubb February 9, 2009 at 5:40 pm

This has to be some kind of White House prank.

JeffGoldblum February 9, 2009 at 5:46 pm

Don’t they know that retard jokes are like 80% of Biden’s stage act?

Bruno February 9, 2009 at 5:47 pm

This is a GOP/Rove conspiracy. A couple of taped remarks from his supporters at this event will turn away the ‘non-special’ voters for sure

[re=239423]JeffGoldblum[/re]: And the remaining 20% is sexual harassment, which is why he is also being sent as a judge to the Miss Universe contest.

What happened to Jim’s penis? It’s gone.

frumious_bandersnatch February 9, 2009 at 5:50 pm

I’m sure the athletes will be extra gracious and not call attention to his developmental issues.

Brilliant! If the bank bailout/”stabilization” plan is roundly panned in the cable interwebs tomorrow and Wednesday, good ol’ Joe will swoop in with a doozy and take over at least a whole news cycle. These pesky WH folks are sneaky.

It would make my week if he could somehow make a retard/butt secks joke in honor of Larry Craig.

grevillea February 9, 2009 at 5:51 pm

Wait, where’d that cock-graph post go? Some wonk-mafia types come round for a quiet word, Newell?

Special Winter Olympics?

The Borgen Project has some good info on the cost of addressing global poverty.

$30 billion: Annual shortfall to end world hunger.
$550 billion: U.S. Defense budget

SayItWithWookies February 9, 2009 at 6:09 pm

[re=239450]atsegga[/re]: What about the Millennium Goals, dammit?!

gjdodger February 9, 2009 at 6:13 pm

This is a test. They want to see if they’ve properly indoctrinated him so when he goes to Germany next week, he won’t comment on the size of Angela Merkel’s tits.

WadISay February 9, 2009 at 6:13 pm

Ladies and gentlemen, let’s give these amputees a big hand. And to those with speech impediments, I say, nyarg, nyarg, nyggg.

(God, please don’t make me burn in hell forever for this.)

shortsshortsshorts February 9, 2009 at 6:14 pm

[re=239450]atsegga[/re]: You said that the other day! When will you understand that nobody cares about some starving statistic in Africa, unless they are edible?

Dr Tobias Funke February 9, 2009 at 6:18 pm

Opening remarks:
JB: “This event reminds me a lot of the campaign, Barry and I had to spend alota time watching a few retards try and win! But seriously folks, Whats the difference between Sarah Palin’s mouth and her vag? Give up?!? Only 1/5 things that comes out of her mouth is retarded”

grevillea February 9, 2009 at 6:22 pm

[re=239464]Dr Tobias Funke[/re]: WIN!!1! [You did fuck up the joke on purpose, dincha?]

Jim Newell February 9, 2009 at 6:52 pm

[re=239433]grevillea[/re]: [re=239426]Mustang[/re]: I am being moody. Blame it on… the Internet.

mylesfromnowhere February 9, 2009 at 7:19 pm

Wonder if Carlos Mencia will be his warm-up act?

Tommmcatt February 9, 2009 at 7:41 pm

I feel special. Mostly because I am one of the few that actually got to see Jim’s penis.

CuntryFirst February 9, 2009 at 8:24 pm

I get he’s attending, but will he or won’t he compete?

tropaean February 9, 2009 at 11:05 pm

i can count to potato!

shortsshortsshorts February 10, 2009 at 1:38 am

[re=239485]Jim Newell[/re]: Fuck you. Blame Trig.
Trig’s an asshole anyway, at least most of the time.
