Joe Biden, you got to love him. I'm sure the late night TV comics do. The politician known for engaging his mouth before his brain had been kind of quiet during his boss's first 100 days in office, but that all ended when he went on the Today Show and told Matt Lauer what he thought people should do to avoid coming in contact with the Swine Flu virus. He says - I'm sure very honestly - that he thinks people should avoid air travel since one person sneezes and that sneeze goes through the whole plane. Not sure the airline industry liked that. Then he added subways, buses, etc. Later, the White House says that wasn't what he meant to say. Come on, I'm sure Joe said what he wanted to say, it was just that he didn't follow the WH script on what to say.
