Daily Obsession: Biden’s Blunder

There’s nothing more that the 24-hour news cycle loves more than a good F-bomb on live television. (Look no further than Jenny Slate‘s SNL debut for the most recent example.) Combine that with Joe Biden‘s history of goof-ups and public misspeaks, and you have created the perfect storm for yesterday’s historic health bill signing, where our vice president whispered to Barack Obama while still wearing his mic, “This is a big f*cking deal.” And here’s everyone on TV talking about it, with the word bleeped out, care of Newsweek.com.
Unlike some of Biden’s other gaffe’s though (asking a wheel-chaired man to stand, forgetting which parent was still alive), at least this time he was speaking correctly. No matter what your political slant, signing this bill into a law was a big f*cking deal.
