ABC News’s Jake Tapper took White House Press Secretary Jay Carney to task over a comment Vice President Joe Biden made to Newsweek, saying “the Taliban per se is not our enemy.” Tapper asked if the language Biden used was regrettable. “if taken out of context.” “It’s only regrettable when taken out of context that I just explained,” Carney responded.

Maybe those rumors of Vice President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton switching jobs should come back to life because Biden is clearly able to navigate diplomatic relations with a hostile threat.

In Sunday’s New York Times, the Opinion section features an op-ed from Vice President Joe Biden, talking about the progress America has made in Iraq — but also the work America still has to finish there as well to make Iraq a viable, self-sustaining nation.

Since the 2008 presidential campaign, rumors have swirled that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton could take Vice President Joe Biden’s position, with Biden sliding into Clinton’s current role, despite denials from the White House.

Vice President Joe Biden appeared for the first time in his new role on The Daily Show last night, in a two-part interview focused mostly on policy.

Although Jon Stewart joked about needing to “watch the entire interview on the web, if you know what I mean,” it appears the exchange was unedited, and featured just a couple minor gaffes that Biden is known for.
