When politicans are they the punchline
-Mon Jan 31, 2011 2:44 PM EST"I think it's hilarious." That's what Vice President Joe Biden told Yahoo! News in a recent interview when asked about the fake news parodies that have created tons of online traffic for The Onion. Parodies which have included the VP getting banned for life from Dave & Busters for destroying a Whac-a-mole game, showing his tattooed arms while washing his Trans-Am on the White House driveway, showing up to President Obama's inauguration with a ponytail (see below)...

... and my personal favorite, this fake report about the Vice President taking a second job as the spokesman for Hennessy Cognac.

With a smile on his face, Biden went on to correct one thing The Onion got wrong telling the interviewer, "I saw the one of me washing a Trans-Am automobile in the driveway shirtless with tattoos all over myself and out there, by the way, I have a Corvette - a '67 Corvette, not a Trans-Am."
Sarah Palin Some thin-skinned politicians should learn from the Vice President's ability to laugh at himself... particularly when it comes to jokes as funny as these. Oh, and also able to take a joke from The Onion? The crew of NBC's TODAY Show.
