Biden and Obama as Costanza and Seinfeld


Not that there’s anything wrong with that!
From the Democratic President’s debate last night at Howard U. in DC in front of a mostly black audience:

NPR’s Michel Martin: “[W]hat is the plan to stop and to protect these young people from this scourge [AIDS]?” …

Sen. Joe Biden: “I got tested for AIDS. I know Barack got tested for AIDS. There’s no shame in being tested for AIDS. It’s an important thing.” …

OBAMA: Tavis, Tavis, Tavis, I just got to make clear — I got tested with Michelle. (Laughter, applause.)

SMILEY: Ah.

OBAMA: In — when we were in Kenya in Africa. So I don’t want any confusion here about what’s going on. (Applause continues.)

SMILEY: All right. …

OBAMA: I was tested with my wife.

SMILEY: And I’m sure Michelle appreciates you clarifying it.

OBAMA: In public. (Laughter.)
