"I gotta bring Obama here!"
"All for you, Joe. Let's drink a toast to Ukraine's beautiful women."
Joe Biden's comment in a Kiev pub Tuesday to Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko about Ukraine's beautiful women reminds me of a couple of things, one of which being my own two trips to Kiev in the 1990s to put on a DEA training seminar. It is true, as Biden says, that there are many beautiful women in Ukraine.
The other story involved my former group-supervisor in Bangkok (God rest his soul), who back in the late 1970s, was attending a diplomatic function in Chiang Mai, which also happened to be attended by the Thai prime minister. Fred (my ex-boss) was a heavy drinker, and when the prime minsiter arrived, Fred was already in his cups and engaged him in conversation, much to the consternation of the American ambassador. As the story goes, Fred told the prime minister repeatedly how much he loved Thailand. Then he informed the PM that what he loved most was, "your whiskey and your women."
The ambassador almost had a heart attack and told DEA officials at the party to keep Fred away from the PM the rest of the evening.
What surprised me was the video of Joe Biden drinking Coca Cola at the pub in Ukraine. Usually, the Ukrainian hosts are trying to get you loaded up on vodka. Thank God, Joe was drinking coke instead of vodka. God only knows what he would have said.
And please don't send Joe to Thailand.

Your Biden campaign white paper left out one detail, Happiness. Biden told the then-Ukrainian president if he didn't fire the prosecutor investigating Burisma and Hunter Biden, his country would not get one billion dollares in US loan guarantees. Hence the prtosecutor was fired. How do I know this? Biden braqgged about it in public and on videotape.
