Anyone who thought sending Joe Biden to Europe to try and straighten things out without saying something stupid didn’t have to wait long. The White House has been in spin mode practically since he stepped off the plane.
On Thursday, Biden said if Vladimir Putin used chemical weapons, the U.S. and NATO would respond “in kind.” The White House said he didn’t mean it.
On Friday, the White House had to reassure everyone that “President Marbles” would not send troops into Ukraine, even after he told them what they would see when they got there.
Finally, on Saturday, “Diaper Joe” called for regime change by exclaiming, “For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power!”
Would somebody please impeach this old fool before he gets us all vaporized.

“It feels like Southampton has lost its soul.” That’s how one local merchant recently described the state of our village business district. Many would agree. Local businesses reported a soft July 4, but a much better July 5 and 6....
It has taken me a few weeks to respond to the recent “Cup o’ Joe” newsletter, where Executive Editor Joe Shaw ventured onto an editorial limb, venting about village issues, particularly the controversy surrounding Pond Lane. Let’s set the record...
The editorial dunce cap for “creeping authoritarianism” [“Gold Stars and Dunce Caps,” Editorial, July 3] awarded to the president for his anger at the deliberate leak of a premature intelligence assessment by an individual acting solely out of malice in...
