Last night Vice President Joe Biden appeared on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, discussing Sarah Palin, the economy, Amtrak, and more. This is Biden’s first appearance on the Daily Show as Vice President, but it’s his sixth time on the show. At the bottom of this post are links to his other five interviews with Jon.

Senator Joe Biden on the Daily Show:
A few days ago a group of teenagers pulled up to McDonalds and rapped their order. They were inspired by a video on YouTube where some other youngsters did the same thing. The McDonald’s employees called the police, as if rapping your order is a crime, and the police cited the teens with disorderly conduct. (I have no idea why.) Some friends of mine and I once sang an order at a fast food place, White Castle if memory serves. I’m glad I don’t have a record because of it.
Hat tip to The Moderate Voice and The Young Turks.
And here’s the original video that served as the teens’ inspiriation. It’s a bit long, but if you watch the first 30 seconds or so, you’ll get the point.
Woman: Somebody’s really drunk driving down Granton Road…
Dispatcher: Okay, are you behind them or…
Woman: No, I am them.
Yes, it’s true, a Mary Strey called 911 to report a drunk driver. She then proceeded to tell the dispatcher that she was the one who was drunk.
As Jeff Foxworthy said, “True stuff is the funniest stuff.”

Dispatcher: Yep, that’s fine if you want to turn it off and turn the flashers on, so then we can find you. Okay, just hold on one second again, Mary.
No disrespect whatsoever is meant by this. It’s just funny. In fact, the video was posted to YouTube by the soldier himself.
