We know that Joe Biden has used bad words.

Among the most famous moments in the president’s long career in public life was that time at the signing ceremony for the Affordable Care Act in 2010 when, captured by the hot mic, the then-vice president told Barack Obama that updating the nation’s health care laws was a BFD.

What people might not know – and what becomes apparent in CNN’s report on a new book by journalist Bob Woodward – is that Biden apparently swears like a sailor.
