In attempting to explain his suicidal interview with the Observer Joe Biden offered that his use of the word "clean" to describe Barak Obama came from an expression his mother used, "Clean as a whistle, sharp as a tack."
Not only does this explanation not in any way differ from the conventional use of the word "clean" but it also leaves us with a stated presidential candidate who when caught in a gaff, blamed his mother!
What's next for candidate Biden? A discussion on the evils of apple pie? Perhaps a rousing flag burning?
It's a shame, I love the way Biden governs. If only he didn't have to get elected (a lament true of so many democrats).
