HAND JOB SIMULATOR? - Tea Party Simulator Gameplay - Video
COLUMBIA, S.C., Oct. 16 (UPI) -- Vice President Joe Biden is again making headlines for ignoring the careful lines of political correctness observed by other politicians.
At a closed-door meeting Tuesday with more than 100 black members of the clergy in South Carolina, Biden bluntly assessed the tea party wing of the GOP as "crazy."
"This is not your father's Republican Party," he said, according to a readout provided to CNN from someone who attended the meeting. "This is a different breed of cat, man. I am not making a moral judgment, but I will tell you that they have no judgment."
Last month, Biden was kinder, but still critical, in comments about the tea party.
"There are a lot of good people involved in the tea party, their objective is, they don't want government involved in anything," he said last month. "They're not liberal or conservative, they're anti-government, so their ends are met best when nothing happens, but you can not sustain a democracy without arriving at a consensus."
On Tuesday, Biden said a victory for Democrats would pay dividends not just for the party and for the country, but also for moderate Republicans who have found themselves overruled.
"If they win again, we are going to get no consensus on anything for the next two, four, six years," he said. "But if we beat some of these folks, it's going to give some spine to the Republicans who know better. If we win, will turn things around. There will begin to be consensus."
The vice president, who is openly considering a bid for president in 2016, made sure to boost his own bona fides among black voters, who make up most of South Carolina's Democrats.
As a young public defender in Delaware, Biden said he was "the only white boy on the east side of Wilmington" who "got 98 percent of the African-American vote every time I ran" in Delaware.

Biden reportedly calls tea party 'crazy'

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) Here are five stories you should be reading Wednesday.
Biden bashes tea party: Vice President Joe Biden used the word crazy to describe the tea-party movement in a closed-door meeting with African-American clergy in South Carolina on Tuesday, CNN reported. Recalling his days as the only white boy on the east side of Wilmington, Del., while he worked as a public defender, Biden pressed faith leaders to elect Democrats this year. On the GOP, Biden said: This is not your fathers Republican PartyThis is a different breed of cat, man. I am not making a moral judgment, but I will tell you they have no judgment.
Paul champions Tillis: Thom Tillis, the U.S. Senate hopeful from North Carolina, is getting a little help from a friend: Sen. Rand Paul. Make that a semi-friend. Paul, the Kentucky Republican, didnt endorse Tillis in the Republican primary. But Paul is now going to bat for Tillis in a new ad from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, as Tilliss race with incumbent Democrat Sen. Kay Hagan enters its final stretch. As a physician and a senator, it bothers me that Kay Hagan doesnt think youre smart enough to choose your doctor, Paul says in the ad, as National Journal reports. Show Kay Hagan youre smart enough to choose your doctor and your senator. But Paul doesnt offer any specific praise for, or comments about, Tillis in the ad.
Cruz and Cornyns aim: Crush Obamacare: Roll Call reported that Texas Republican Sens. Ted Cruz and John Cornyn have filed a court brief backing another Obamacare lawsuit. This one claims the Senate failed to comply with the constitutional requirement that revenue bills originate in the House. As Roll Call said, acceptance by a federal court of the two senators views could affect many pieces of the tax code because the Senate has often used legislation originating in the House for bills marginally related to taxes.
Bored with the [Keystone] conversation: The debate over the Keystone XL oil pipeline just aint what it used to be. A Politico piece titled The incredible shrinking Keystone found that the controversial pipeline project has become increasingly irrelevant in the midterm elections and the energy markets even for the groups that fought hard to build it or block it. I dont want to say theres much less interest in getting the pipeline built, but theres much less concern among guys in the business about whether it gets built or not, Republican energy lobbyist and consultant Mike McKenna told Politico. Theyre starting to get bored with the conversation.
Holding off replacing Holder: Last week the New York Times reported President Barack Obamas pick for the next attorney general would come before the Nov. 4 midterm elections. Not so fast. White House officials recently have said they dont want the nomination to become an issue in the already-contentious elections, McClatchy reported. Senate Democrats asked Obama to delay the announcement as they fight to keep their majority. The Times reported Labor Secretary Thomas Perez was at the top of the list to replace outgoing Attorney General Eric Holder.

Treasured musical acts taking a break often speak of a "hiatus", an extended time off where members "explore other interests" or "focus on family".
It is often used as an alternative to announcing a formal break-up, giving members time to relax, unwind and decompress from the hectic touring and recording environment.
Sometimes the band gets back together, sometimes they don't, but the "comeback" album is almost always tricky.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS
Washington (CNN) -- Tea party favorite Rep. Michele Bachmann is getting ready to leave Congress at the end of this year, but what she isn't too sure about is another presidential run.
"I have no plan to run for president in 2016," Bachmann said in an interview with The Hill published Wednesday.
"I was so honored to be able to do it in 2012. It is one of the greatest experiences in my life. But I think the men who run will tell you too, it's one of the most difficult things you ever [embark] upon."
The Minnesota Republican has yet to completely rule out a bid. In a farewell speech at the Heritage Foundation earlier Wednesday, Bachmann encouraged Republicans to "go bold" on initiatives like tax reform if they takeover the Senate this election.
"You either go bold, or you don't go at all. If you want somebody to lead the debate, I'll lead the debate," she said.
Bachmann has remained a fierce leader in the far right side of the conservative movement, particularly in regards to mobilizing the base. In 2010, she established the Tea Party Caucus in the House. She later went on to win the Ames Straw Poll in 2011, but went off to finish in sixth place in the Hawkeye State caucuses.
Bachmann has mentioned that her retirement from Capitol Hill does not mean she'll be inactive in national politics. In July she told RealClearPolitics that there's a chance she could run against the "various men" that the media has speculated to run. She has since said that was a "rhetorical comment."
