Creepy Uncle Joe strikes again.

Cameras caught the vice president nuzzling up to Ashton Carter’s wife during the new defense secretary’s swearing-in ceremony this morning.

Bendery, a reporter for the Huffington Post, adds Biden was “whispering things” in the woman’s ear.

The Boston Globe reports Carter vows “to protect troops’ safety, dignity.”

He may want to start by protecting his wife’s dignity, which was being massaged out by the hands of the vice president.
