Washington – Former Vice President Joe Biden says he doesn’t believe he ever acted inappropriately toward women but will “listen respectfully” to suggestions he did.

Biden, who is deciding whether to join the 2020 presidential race, faces allegations from a Nevada political candidate that he kissed her on the back of the head in 2014 and made her uncomfortable.
In a new statement released Sunday, Biden says: “In my many years on the campaign trail and in public life, I have offered countless handshakes, hugs, expressions of affection, support and comfort. And not once — never — did I believe I acted inappropriately. If it is suggested I did so, I will listen respectfully. But it was never my intention.”
The allegation was made by Lucy Flores, a former Nevada state representative and the 2014 Democratic nominee for Nevada lieutenant governor.
No feelings of mercy about Biden.
As far as the subject matter, The Kavanaugh fiasco taught me something. If there were actual allegations that were true, they would have been made long ago. We are not discussing a traumatic event that can involve memories being suppressed. Because this accuser is anatomically female, is she believed without investigation? Should it be subjected to the circus that Kavanaugh had? Has the subject been granted a status of truth even if the facts are different?
Aside from the veracity of this deserving suspicion, there is another problem. The bar regarding what behavior is socially appropriate keeps being moved. Something that was recognized as a casual action years ago has taken a twist and is now branded as abusive. One cannot exist in such a climate. I am glad that it is a Democrat that will be the victim of this senseless process.
it’s amazing that all the accusers are now being accused – they don’t remember the saying that
PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN GLASS HOUSES SHOULD NOT THROW STONES
If Rapist Bill can be president why not Groper Joe
Creepy uncle Joe. Love how the Looney liberal are defending him.
To #4
That is an awesome name for Biden. we need to get this nickname to President Trump asap! anyone have any ideas..?
I like Biden. That said, I would not vote for him. He is simply too old and he creeps out my wife. She has called him abusive for many years. I will trust her judgement on him.
Heimishe yidden have always known that the touchy-touchy feely-feely way of people like Biden is morally wrong and inappropriate. The goyim always thought that so long as there was no sexual innuendo, there was no harm. Well things have changed. You Dems are the party of mercy killing, perversion and
human rights
. It is my human right to not be touched by you Mr. VP Biden and despite the fact that when you did just give me support during my campaign all those years ago, the rules have now been changed and there is retrospective legislation. You are deemed to be guilty. Period. For what it is worth, I believe Biden; there was nothing untoward about his behavior judged by the goyish standards of the day, which is why the woman didn’t complain at the time. But the rules have changed Joe, and now you are a serial predator. It is because the rules have changed and boys can kiss and cuddle boys in the park and girls can fondle other girls in public, without anyone thinking there is anything wrong with it. Actually, clapping for the boys and girls new found freedoms is deemed praiseworthy. Showing genuine feeling for another at a time of stress is however a big no-no.
