Another day, another motivational poster showcasing the brilliance of the Obama/Biden ticket. They really never learn. Not even after the last poster quickly spawned #WhenYouArePresident mockery.
Mockery, schmockery, they said. The world needs this nugget of wisdom from Joe Biden in a .jpg:
I am an optimist because the American people—given half a chance—have never, ever, ever, ever let their country down. The deck has been stacked on them, and we are unstacking it.
This explains everything. No wonder our backs have been hurting. We thought it was all the hours hunched over the keyboard, scouring Twitter for Twitchy content. But no, it appears the deck is stacked on us. Ouch!
As with all things Joe Biden, conservatives were a bit baffled:

I don't *feel* like there's a deck stacked on me. Debt? Yes.
