Sure, his family can afford other means of transportation or simply not going to work!
Keep it up, Joe, at least you add some fun to the Odrama household!

Deviating from Official Flu Warnings, VP Biden Suggests Americans Should Avoid All Mass Transit
The White House was forced to issue a clarifying statement after Vice President Biden went a little off-message this morning about what he would advise his family in terms of the current flu crisis.
Asked by NBC's Matt Lauer what he would tell a member of his family who came to him and asked whether he should fly to and from Mexico on a commercial airliner in the next week, the vice president gave an answer that goes much farther than the precautions the president suggested last night, or the travelers' advisories given by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"I would tell members of my family, and I have, 'I wouldn't go anywhere in confined places now,'" the vice president said. "It's not that he's going to Mexico, it's that you're in a confined aircraft, and one person sneezes, it goes all the way through the aircraft."
"That's me," the vice president said.

i'm beginning to think that Joe Biden isn't as dumb as he is portrayed nor as gaffe prone. It's occurred to me that he is telling the truth when others are oiling up the works. He's like one great big freudian slip....the truth just slips out behind the mental block.
Since Joe is in the know on so many levels in the halls of the government He must be full to the brim with things we don't know, things that he knows will affect us in a big way if we did. Sometimes he just has to "slip".
Just another side of the thought on the matter......
