- ZebZ, on 05/18/2009, -55/+354The Fox News Brigade is out today.
Newsflash: The White House has secure on-site rooms too for the President. Why wouldn't there be one for the VP at his home? I bet there are some underground at the Capitol too! Whoopdy ***** doo! - xtructure, on 05/18/2009, -51/+287The bunker is clearly no longer in use. It was constructed in 2002 specifically for Cheney. Biden doesn't use it. It's no more a national security issue than Nixon's bowling alley. The only gaffe here belongs to Fox News.
- nichampagne, on 05/18/2009, -21/+242Wouldn't you assume that the Vice Presidents residence has a bunker underneath it? Next I bet we find out that the White House has armed guards, OMG!
- mikeinto, on 05/18/2009, -6/+217Archie?
- inactive, on 05/18/2009, -17/+212This is so stupid!!
quote: "In December 2002, neighbors complained of loud construction work being done at the Naval Observatory, which has been used as a residence by vice presidents since 1974.
The upset neighbors were sent a letter by the observatory's superintendent, calling the work "sensitive in nature" and "classified" and that it was urgent it be completed "on a highly accelerated schedule.""
If the digging was in dec 2002 and Cheney was there in sept 2001.... well, it makes no sense. - alais, on 05/18/2009, -12/+183Joe Biden.
- tylerelliott, on 05/18/2009, -60/+219So it seems the conservatives are out in full force today judging by the above comments...
- brbeaird, on 05/18/2009, -31/+178Great. Now we need a new secret bunker.
- mikelieman, on 05/18/2009, -44/+187I think it's funny Cheney had a Bunker.
You know who else had a Bunker? - ChuckDees, on 05/18/2009, -28/+147One more non story for rightwingers to bitch about for a day.
- 7m7uf, on 05/18/2009, -11/+128off topic but at the end of the article it says:
"Most recently, he said in a televised interview that if a family member asked him about traveling he'd advise staying away from public transportation or confined spaces to avoid swine flu -- a remark described as "borderline fearmongering" by an airline spokesman."
Hahaha, NO media should be pointing fingers at anyone about fearmongering -- because there's always 3 more pointing back. - jbsnyder, on 05/18/2009, -15/+121Perhaps, but is anyone really surprised that there's a secret bunker under the Vice President's living accommodations?
- inactive, on 05/18/2009, -27/+132OMG FALSE OUTRAGE! This was a thinly held secret. People had a pretty good idea there as a bunker there, so settle the ***** down republiclones.
- Angostura, on 05/18/2009, -14/+109Ummm, is *anyone* surprised that there is some kind of bunker under the VPs official residence? Is there any indication that this actually *is* the ever-so-secret undisclosed location? - because it seems a bit lame if it is.
- rrouse, on 05/18/2009, -16/+104Even I knew about the bunker.
- Solkre, on 05/18/2009, -10/+83Oh *****, next thing we'll find out the White House has a fence around it!?
- AARGH2K, on 05/18/2009, -19/+89Buried as lame. Let's see public record of complaints about work there, and just plain common sense that HEY their may be a bunker underneath the VP's residience?
Only FOX news would be surprised by this. - BenTheTank, on 05/18/2009, -25/+91I bet Joe Biden would be cool to hang out with.
- inajeep, on 05/18/2009, -20/+86Joe doesn't need to hide like Cheney.
- zimsters, on 05/18/2009, -10/+69Wait. this guy has a secure bunker under his house. Does it really take an einstein to figure that out?
- inactive, on 05/18/2009, -23/+82Al Gore? Dan Quayle? Walter Mondale?
How far do we need to go back? You do know this is the Vice President's mansion right? Not just Cheney's? - dquan, on 05/18/2009, -8/+64I may just be stupid, but I think Hitler had a bunker.
- zKman, on 05/18/2009, -4/+56Oh *****, those armed guards were classified, someone call fox news!
- inactive, on 05/18/2009, -3/+53Edith?
- Vodd9, on 05/18/2009, -2/+46It wasn't there until 2002.
- inajeep, on 05/18/2009, -22/+65Umm, rightly so, have you ever heard anything he has said?
- SamSks, on 05/18/2009, -7/+50Of course it's under the VP's residence! If there were an attack, it's not like he can get into a car and drive somewhere! It'd HAVE to be in a place that he can get to FAST!
Geeze! - inactive, on 05/18/2009, -6/+49Clearly they expanded the bunker after 9/11.
- 8FoldPath, on 05/18/2009, -19/+55I'm sorry...Dan Quayle holds that record forever.
- 0tis, on 05/18/2009, -1/+37To be fair, though, it's still a bunker. Good luck getting in there.
- jtscira, on 05/18/2009, -1/+37Old news, if you think this was really a secret. Well *****.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/2559617.stm
good job fox reporting a story 7 years old - nichampagne, on 05/18/2009, -15/+50Any by "they" you mean everyone.
- Charlotte_Web, on 05/18/2009, -11/+43Joe Biden, the gift that keeps on giving!
- mikelieman, on 05/18/2009, -7/+39I'm sorry. None of you got the correct answer which is:
"The Greenbrier"
alais, 2 points to you for accuracy...
mikeintro, 10 points to you for a good joke. - sarahlee, on 05/18/2009, -4/+36Exactly - it has not been a secret since the news of the construction was done.
- inactive, on 05/18/2009, -162/+193What an imbecile!
- sully213, on 05/18/2009, -2/+33Personally, I think the "undisclosed location" would have been at Site R. It's far more remote, not as many people know about it (except locals like myself) and probably much more fortified. It's referred to around here as the Underground Pentagon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Site_R
- twiztidsinz, on 05/18/2009, -26/+56More fox outrage from Faux news...
- Vodd9, on 05/18/2009, -2/+32Idiocy is a non-partisan issue.
- pntl, on 05/18/2009, -14/+43I think the real point here is that he revealed classified information to a room full of press, not what the information was or whether or not it was already assumed by anyone with a brain.
- AgeofMastery, on 05/18/2009, -3/+31So everyone knew about the bunker since 2002 so what's the big deal?
- inactive, on 05/18/2009, -2/+29When classified information is common knowledge, it's can't be called classified information anymore.
- sigmaman2, on 05/18/2009, -0/+26The 11th green at Pebble Beach???
- Lefts, on 05/18/2009, -2/+24WE HAVE A LEAK!
- jimw428, on 05/18/2009, -8/+29"Yet he won election to the office, and you're sitting here with me..."
Wrong,
Obama won the election, and could have don't so with a dead dog as a running mate. Biden had his chance in the primaries. Did he even win a single state? He is an incredible buffoon, and the voters cast their ballots accordingly. - Acewrap, on 05/18/2009, -12/+33If you had read the article, you'd know this was constructed in 2002.
- subclavius, on 05/18/2009, -14/+35A secret bunker under the Vice President's living accommodations?
In Cheney's case, it's called Hell. He probably put in an express elevator. - AgeofMastery, on 05/18/2009, -5/+26You mean the bunker the British were writing about in 2002?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/2559617. ... - wipis, on 05/18/2009, -8/+29Am I the only one not surprised by this? Not so much that Biden has a big mouth. That the bunker is in the basement. Sure you could build tunnels but, wouldn't the safest place to quickly escape to be the basement? Isn't there a similar thing in the white house? I would assume there is some sort of hidden safe room in the basement.
