“The truth is, we and everyone else misread the economy” - Vice President Joe Biden, to ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, on “This Week”
“Bankruptcy courts have the power to authorize sales of assets at a time when there still is value to preserve — to prevent the death of the patient on the operating table.” - Judge Robert E.

"The truth is, we and everyone else misread the economy” - Vice President Joe Biden
I'm sure Joe meant all the people in the Beltway when he said everyone.
It's kinda like when a teenager in High School says "Ma, everyone failed the test not just me" meaning everyone in the kid's clique not the smart ones who passed.
Nice try on your quotes ABC News, I'm sure you're doing the best you can but you missed the best one we have all heard recently.
The one where Sarah Palin says only dead fish go with the flow.
DC is full off dead fish.
Wouldn't it be a thing of beauty to see a live one swimming around there?

Look at the "tweet" quote at the bottom of this article. Is that the person you'd RATHER see as VP?! I'll take smokin' Joe over Caribou Barbie any day. She's "palin" by comparison!
