Vice President Joe Biden's Today
show appearance this morning has been the talk of the cablers today,
after the VP said, "I would tell members of my family, and I have, that
I wouldn't go anywhere in confined places now." (And more — video after
the jump.)
CNN, FNC and MSNBC were all live with Robert Gibbs' press briefing just after 2pmET today when ABC News' Jake Tapper
asked for clarification. After one attempt, Tapper followed up: "I
sympathize with you trying to explain the Vice President's comments,
but that's not even remotely close to what he said." Then, to laughter
from the room, Gibbs said, "I understand what he said, and I'm telling
you what he meant to say."
