Oriole Bird seems upset to be snubbed by VP Joe Biden

Poor Oriole Bird. Vice President Joe Biden, fresh off throwing the first pitch at opening day, goes right to hug Chad Moeller. We hope the veep made it up to the mascot.

Joe states to the catcher, 'Hey Moe, Sarah Palin looks different without her glasses'. 'She's still a birdbrain'.

The Oriole Bird was saddled with the unenviable task of asking Joe Biden to bailout the Orioles.
OR...
The Oriole Brid contemplates the best way to tell Joe Biden that he thinks Sara Palin made a better (looking) VP.

If you look real close you're see that the person wearing the bird suit is really Sarah Palin.

After the cancellation of the White Sox opener President Obama flies to Baltimore on a secret mission only to discover his sidekick beat him to it. If you look closely the bird...er President signals for the kill shot.

Yeah, laugh it up while you can. I'm flying over you in the parking lot after the game, and you can be darn sure I'm eating chili dogs during the 7th inning stretch!!

Hey man, just remember, it's patriotic to pay taxes. Unless you are chosen to be in the cabinet!

Biden: I just enlisted in the Army, that's why I don't have an Orioles cap on my head.
Chad: The Army?
Biden: I need a real job!

Chad, call me when Wieters comes up. I think the Treasury Department can use another catcher, although it's a taxing job.

The Oriole Bird was excited to meet the guy who threw out the opening pitch, that was until he found out it wasn't Jimmy Buffet.

Chad: Hey Joe, you think that Barack can take control of the O's? Angelos has driven a once proud, respected and competitive franchise into the ground...JUST LIKE W!

Somebody better tell Levi that he can't hide from Sarah and Bristol for too much longer.

Uh oh, I hope he doesn't know that I voted for Mcain-Palin.

Biden: And you thought they were booing when Texeria was introduced! Now this is what I call booing.
Moeller: Plus, I think Palin would have thrown less like a girl.
Bird: Time out with the hugging, boys. There's kids in the stands.

I knew I should have dressed like a Bald Eagle if I wanted attention from a Washington insider.
