Vice president Joe Biden and his wife Jill were the guests of honor at Wednesday night's eighth annual Sesame Workshop Gala, where the couple was recognized for their efforts on behalf of military families. The event raised $2.2 million for the organization, no doubt aided by its "'huge' surprise when Snuffleupagus made a rare public appearance." I hope Biden's microphone was off; you know how emotional he can get over big f***ing deals. [Sesame Workshop]
