Joe Biden Said That?

Thanks to Michael Kriskey for this collection of Bidenisms. In May of 2009 Biden was giving a commencement address at Wake Forest University and let flow a variety of gems. Thanks to Michael for picking these out from the full transcript:

I believe so strongly, as you may recall when I was here in October, not in you particularly but your generation…

Hey, thanks much!

Folks, we’re either going to fundamentally change the course of history, or fail the generations that come after us, because change will occur. Non-action is action, unlike most generations.

Would that also make action non-action? Or maybe it's not symmetric?

There’s not a single issue on this President’s plate that will not yield a change — just merely by ignoring it, it will change.

Let's not bother electing anyone then!

When I graduated, all had not changed utterly yet. Today, it has. And in the last 12 to 15 years, a terrible beauty has been born. It’s a different world out there than it has been any time in the last millennia. But we have an opportunity to make it beautiful, because it is in motion.

Well hey, I'm inspired. Or at least confused. Joe Biden, ladies and gentlemen!
