Yeah that Biden is a 'real winner'.
Biden Advises Shooting Shotgun Through Door
F&S: What about the other uses, for self-defense and target practice?
V.P. BIDEN: Well, the way in which we measure it is—I think most scholars would say—is that as long as you have a weapon sufficient to be able to provide your self-defense. I did one of these town-hall meetings on the Internet and one guy said, “Well, what happens when the end days come? What happens when there’s the earthquake? I live in California, and I have to protect myself.”
I said, “Well, you know, my shotgun will do better for you than your AR-15, because you want to keep someone away from your house, just fire the shotgun through the door.” Most people can handle a shotgun a hell of a lot better than they can a semiautomatic weapon in terms of both their aim and in terms of their ability to deter people coming. We can argue whether that’s true or not, but it is no argument that, for example, a shotgun could do the same job of protecting you. Now, granted, you can come back and say, “Well, a machine gun could do a better job of protecting me.” No one’s arguing we should make machine guns legal.

Wow, just wow.
Not only is that a terrible argument, it is so juvenille that it makes Biden beating up some punk kid seem like maturity.
Just grow up Neo.

The point isn't the fact that he watches ESPN while exercising, or if he spends it on the couch. It's that he uses valuable time exercising and watching television. This time could be used to at least look like he's semi-competent, knowledgeable about the problems in the world and showing some effort.
He can't exercise at night? I understand a quick routine in the morning but "most of the morning"?
