I Believe Tara Reade. I’m Voting for Joe Biden Anyway. The importance of owning an ugly moral choice.

Let’s be clear: I believe Tara Reade. I believed Anita Hill, too. Remember the buttons? I wore one. What’s the constant here? Joe Biden, then the bumbling head of the Senate Judiciary Committee during the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings, now the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.

Long before Ms. Reade, before the reports of the rubbing and the sniffing, I interviewed an adviser to Ms. Hill, who said she’d tried to warn Mr. Biden of what was happening in the Thomas hearings — how unchecked Republicans were smearing an upright woman’s character. But “the United States Senate was still very much a boys’ club” back then, the adviser told me, and there was no getting through to him. Democratic primary voters knew all about Mr. Biden’s membership in that boys’ club when there was still time to pick someone else. Alas.

So what’s a girl to do now?

“Leftist women make it a point of pride to NOT look attractive for any man.”

She doesn’t have to try very hard.

“Because I am mentally deficient”.

More like morally deficient.

First it was “Tara who”?

Then they ignored.

They they deflected.

Then they went hmmmmm.

Then they slowly said, “mmmmm maybe”.

Then they said, “Whatever...he has a D next to his name”.

The ones in my past that might have been seen as Democrats/liberals/progressives are all gone. Their choice; they couldn’t stop referring to me and those I support as Nazis. To be honest a few of them were just plain p**** whipped, so no big loss. Wives were all “the government needs to .....” with my dime and yours.

Back in the 70’s, when I was getting ready to go out on a date, my roommate cousin asked me why I took so long to do my hair and make-up. I told her I liked to look as good as I could when I’m going out. She just shook her head. Oh, did I mention she was and still is a hard-core Leftist?

All major Democratic Party figures have indicated they’re not budging on the presumptive nominee, and the transaction costs of replacing him would be suicidal. Barring some miracle, it’s going to be Mr. Biden.

Bullshit, they can replace him if they want to. Don't make excuses.
