This Is Kind of Weird
I know that "the process of getting [official presidential and vice presidential portraits] produced, framed and hung" does take time, but it is almost August. So I'm curious as to what the real reason for the holdup on distributing Vice President Biden's portrait to federal agencies is. Maybe they just can't get the guy to sit still for a serious picture? He does tend to go in for the big grins.

The federal building where I work has more pictures of Obama hanging than any other president. Maybe they ran out of wall space!
viv Posted Thursday, July 30, 2009 11:18 AMWe don't have any more than usual Obama pictures. I was more than happy to see his picture timely replace our previous president's. This is as it should be. However, in this port, when Bill Clinton became president, it took over a year for his pictur to replace that of his Republican predecessor, George H.W. Bush. This was a disgrace perpetrated by the power that was in South Florida Customs Service. Glad to see that nastiness is gone.

The trinity shall only be known by one name, inseparable, three, yet one in purpose, individual yet combined as we walk in his shadow. Biden who?
