    Biden calls Fox News reporter Peter Doocy ‘a stupid son of a b****’

    Biden calls Fox News reporter Peter Doocy ‘a stupid son of a b****’

    Joe Biden has lashed out at Fox News reporter Peter Doocy, calling him “a stupid son of a b****” after he asked a pointed question about rising inflation.

    The president’s insult was caught on camera after the reporter asked him at the end of a photo opportunity: “Do you think inflation is a political liability in the midterms?”

    “It’s a great asset, more inflation. What a stupid son of a b****,” Mr Biden was heard to mutter in the White House’s East Room.

    The heated exchange – not the first between the pair – came amid a cost of living crisis in the US that has seen earnings slip far behind prices.

    Ole' Joe just isn't Presidential. I'm surprised he didn't tell Doocy to get off his lawn.

      I would have more respect for Puddinhead if he said it out loud to his face.
      If you want to call someone a SOB, have the guts to do it out loud and to their face.

          That was my thought. Doing it this way makes it look like he didn't think anyone would hear it, which makes him look stupid or out of it. Of course, if the previous President had called a reporter a sonuvvabitch, it would have been definite evidence off his unfitness to govern. Not that I think it befits the leader of the most powerful country in the world to be a crass, ill-mannered asshole; it does not. I just wonder if those who were so offended by Trump will be equally quick to censure Biden. I hope so.

          Of more actual concern, however, is his statement that inflation is good.
          "Since the historic ruling, the Lovings have become icons for equality. Mildred released a statement on the 40th anniversary of the ruling in 2007: 'I am proud that Richard’s and my name is on a court case that can help reinforce the love, the commitment, the fairness, and the family that so many people, Black or white, young or old, gay or straight, seek in life. I support the freedom to marry for all. That’s what Loving, and loving, are all about.'." - Mildred Loving (Loving v. Virginia)

              it was sarcasm. Good Lord you Trump Folk are weird.

                  He's so obviously out of it.

                      I'm a member of another political message board that has hundreds of members and a fairly even mix across the political spectrum.

                      Those who got in a tizzy about Trump's MEANBADAWFULSCARYWORDS are giddy that Biden said something rude to a Fox reporter.

                      “I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
                      I aim with my eye.

                      "I do not shoot with my hand; he who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
                      I shoot with my mind.

                      "I do not kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his father.
                      I kill with my heart.”

                          It may have been sarcasm from Biden, but none other than Paul Krugman said inflation doesn't hurt the poor.

                          Krugman, of course, is a moron. Perhaps Biden was channeling him.

                              I watched the clip. He reminded me of my grandfather...one of his favorite insults. I liked the second clip because I think the kid and the Fox Team were pretty funny about the whole thing. I'm sure lots of Presidents have said similar and worse. It is unbecoming to have it on the mic. And it is interesting that this would have been a Youge issue of it were Trump. But it's Biden and Fox, so no big deal.

                                  Deucy was pretty cool about the incident.
                                  Puddinhead was shamed into calling him with an apology,
                                  Now I noticed that Peppermint Patti went out of her way to accommodate Peter during her presser today,
                                  Betting she called him a Stupid SOB afterwards,

                                                      You know, every time you posted about something off-the-wall, crackpot thing Trump said in public, some apologist would say he was "trolling the libs." That was BS. Trump's an ill-mannered, egotistical, and offensive person, and many, if not most, of his outrageous utterances were a simple matter of saying what he thought in the moment, no filters.

                                                      So now there's Biden, and he says off-the-wall things and you leap to tell us he's being sarcastic.

                                                      Not seeing a lot off difference here. Maybe next time, we could elect a President for whom nobody has to make excuses.

Mildred released a statement on the 40th anniversary of the ruling in 2007: 'I am proud that Richard’s and my name is on a court case that can help reinforce the love, the commitment, the fairness, and the family that so many people, Black or white, young or old, gay or straight, seek in life. I support the freedom to marry for all. That’s what Loving, and loving, are all about.'." - Mildred Loving (Loving v. Virginia)
