Joe Biden, the man one heartbeat away from the presidency, doesn’t appear to recall who Van Jones is. You know, the Obama administration’s former “green” czar — the guy who now wants liberals to imitate the tea party.

All things considered, amnesia isn’t so bad. After all, Biden could have called Jones “articulate,” “bright,” “clean,” or “a nice-looking guy.” That would’ve been a storybook, man.
