If you need any more evidence that this administration is more celebrity than it is presidential, the state dinner for French President Francois Hollande will do. “Veep” star Julia Louis-Dreyfus had the dubious honor of babysitting crazy Uncle Joe Biden, who occasionally pretends to be Vice President.
That’s when Joe got territorial.
Asked Julia Louis-Dreyfus how she liked the dinner. Biden swiftly interrupts and stares me down: "Hey stop screwing around, she's my date!"

Julia Louie-Dreyfus did answer my question about her favorite part of the dinner. "Look who I'm sitting next to," she said, pointing to @VP.

The administration in a nutshell:
The pool is right behind @JoeBiden, who just kissed Veep star @OfficialJLD And told her he asked to be seated next to her.

Biden, probably: "Does it feel happy when I touch you like this?" RT @jeffmason1: Another veep with the Veep pic. pic.twitter.com/ELjZRqAX23
