The former VP asserted that Anita Hill, who accused Clarence Thomas of sexual harassment, should not have been forced to face a panel of “a bunch of white guys.”
Biden went on to suggest that English common law, the foundation of the western legal system, was anti-women.
“I realize I get a little too passionate about this sometimes, but we all have an obligation to do nothing less than change the culture in this country. Not just the laws, we changed laws — change the culture. The culture. You all know what the phrase rule of thumb means? Where it’s derived from? In English common law, not codification or common law, back in the late 1300s, so many women were dying at the hands of her husbands because they were chattel, just like the cattle or the sheep, that the Court of Common Law decided they had to do something about the extent of the deaths. So, you know what they said? No man has a right to chastise his woman with a rod thicker than the circumference of his thumb. This is English jurisprudential culture a white man’s culture. That’s got to change it’s got to change.”
What a narrow view of world history.
ReplyDeleteI blame creepy, Uncle Joe for inappropriate touching of many women.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nut case.
ReplyDeleteWhat crazy hogwash ! Most girls minority or otherwise first sexual experience is forced upon them by someone in their immediate family or someone closely associated to them in certain economics classes black white and otherwise. Humanity is a plethora of dysfunction and perversion. Abject creatures driven by base instincts and primordial desires and they pray for forgiveness and deliverance for being animals. The most faithful often have the greatest to be ashamed of.
ReplyDeleteEnough with the malarkey, bucko. We're Americans, we addressed the English way of doing things a while ago, if you don't recall.
ReplyDeleteI pray Biden puts himself in that statement as we have seen him fondling women and little girls on camera in recent years, and it was all recorded by the media if they didn't destroy the tapes. And he has the audacity to run for president, he did absolutely nothing in office while serving under Obama, but grin in pictures, can anyone think of one thing during those years he stood for. And his surviving son is seriously dating his deceased son's wife who just recently died. I think maybe the best of the Bidens died his son Beau seemed to be well thought of young man and a man who had real convictions.
ReplyDeleteI hear him flapping and clapping for Democrats

ReplyDelete1:55 is largely correct, but too kind to Slow Joe.
He set his younger son up in a variety of sweetheart deals across the years. Even got him a Naval officer commission to burnish his credentials for politics down the road. Except his married, adult son couldn't stay off the cocaine long enough to pass a drug test during one of his reserve duty days. Same son ditched his wife to take up with his brother's widow not long after the older son died. Slow Joe and Dr. Jill were supportive of the new coupling.
Slow Joe and his spawn are trailer trash in a fancier part of town. His list of career accomplishments follows. End of story.
I didn't know OJ was white!
