new Reade/Biden thread

[Anonymous]

Amtrak Joe was thoroughly in command of the situation during the interview. He vehemently denied the allegation
and questioned the lack of a record. He emphasized that women should be heard, with a presumption that they are telling the truth, that it’s just a presumption that can be overcome. The real truth must prevail. Who disagrees with that?

It’s about whether Bernie supporters and Independents will go to the polls to vote for scummy Biden. I think not.

This is about rethuglicans who only care about the 1% and der Trump is the leader of them.

Vote Blue no matter who! Every vote counts so do not waste it by not voting or voting for some 3rd party candidate.

Sorry, but no. I cannot vote for that senile creep. I will sit this one out or go 3rd party.

Then you will essentially be voting for Trump. WHen will people understand that our elections often force us to either have no voice at all or vote for the candidate that we feel is the lesser of 2 evils? That's just the way it is, and you sitting this one out won't change a thing. One of them will still be president. If you want to take a stand against our process, then great! It does suck! But please find a way to do so in an effective way that won't result in 4 more years of Trump.

If you feel so strongly that this is correct (I don't, BTW), then you need to get on your party leaders to get him replaced. Biden is not the person for this campaign, or to run against Trump, or for the job of President. You know that as well as I do and yet "we" allowed this to happen.

Sorry, but no. If we have to live through four more years of Trump to make this point, I think the longer term end game is worth it.

If you actually believe this, you were never going to vote for a Dem anyway. You make absolutely no sense.

The PP above makes perfect sense. You just can't see it. We need a new candidate or November will be a disaster.
But you just keep whistling past the graveyard with Joe Biden and Chris Dodd

I'm from that generation and I remember thigh highs. Don't you? They were all the rage,
Any plenty of women have worn stockings with a garter versus actual pantyhose. Some do for health reasons.

Not in the early 90s

Yes, in the early 90s. My mother bought them for me. Who they hell are you to speak for all women and products?

I am someone who was in my early 20s in the early 90s.

And so was I! Yet, I was given and WORE thigh highs!

To work? LOL. Ok, maybe you did. But, literally, I don't know anyone else who did that. I wore a lot of tights and hose, though. As did most if not all the women I knew.

Why are you so stuck on this issue? I was a poor college student working at a nonprofit. My mom bought them for me and I gladly accepted her gift. Do you always make fun of other women and their clothing ? What a sad person you must be with little self-esteem.

Head's up: Politicians don't listen to people who don't vote. If you're willing to sit this out, why would anyone bother to try to win your vote next time. There is a reason we have Social Security but not reasonable college costs-- because old people are reliable voters and young people are not. There is a reason there has been no progressive immigration reform but money spent on border control and deportation-- because Latinos have a low voter turnout while anti-immigration folks show up at the polls.

So, good luck with your protest strategy.

How would those texts be relevant in an alleged sexual assault case? They are free speech political viewpoints.

It's true, they are free speech. But given nothing of the nature of her complaint surfaced until AFTER her Putin love was declared, it seems rather, how do we say, suspect?

If you want things to change in the next 4 years, then vote for Biden since he will have a female VP. This country has made it clear that they need baby steps toward a female president so a female vp would pave the way for a female president in 4 years.

Why don't you two start your own thread? Tara Reade has not said she was wearing thigh highs, she said she had bare legs. So you twits should take your personal spat elsewhere, maybe to the Fashion forum.

For the record, thigh highs are ridiculous.

BECAUSE SHE SAID HER LEGS WERE BARE! SHE DID NOT CLAIM THIGH HIGHS! I realize that it seems like an insignificant detail to you but it makes her story less believable.

They were a thing back in the 90's, and I wore them sometimes in the summer because they were cooler (especially in DC) and I have long legs so they fit me better. But I don't think most people did.

But her story falls apart for me because she says she had bare legs. No one had bare legs.
