Malkin: The Hunter Biden Chronicles

Everything you need to know about Beltway nepotism, corporate cronyism and corruption can be found in the biography of Robert Hunter Biden. Where are the Occupy Wall Street rabble-rousers and enemies of elitist privilege when you need them? Straining their neck muscles to look the other way.

The youngest son of Vice President Joe Biden made news last week after The Wall Street Journal revealed he had been booted from the Navy Reserve for cocaine use. His drug abuse was certainly no surprise to the Navy, which issued him a waiver for a previous drug offense before commissioning him as a public affairs officer at the age of 43. The Navy also bent over backward a second time with an age waiver so he could secure the cushy part-time job.

Papa Biden loves to tout his middle-class, "Average Joe" credentials. But rest assured, if his son had been "Hunter Smith" or "Hunter Jones" or "Hunter Brown," the Navy's extraordinary dispensations would be all but unattainable. Oh, and if he had been "Hunter Palin," The New York Times would be on its 50th front-page investigative report by now.

Despite the disgraceful ejection from our military, Hunter's Connecticut law license won't be subject to automatic review. Because, well, Biden .

Biden's bennies are not just one-offs. Skating by, flouting rules and extracting favors are the story of Hunter's life.

Hunter's first job, acquired after Joe Biden won his 1996 Senate re-election bid in Delaware, was with MBNA. That's the credit card conglomerate and top campaign finance donor that forked over nearly $63,000 in bundled primary and general contributions from its employees to then Sen. Biden. As I've reported previously, Daddy Biden secured his custom-built, multimillion-dollar house in Delaware's ritziest Chateau Country neighborhood with the help of a leading MBNA corporate executive... .

If Hunter would have been the son of a Republican this would have been hot stuff in the enemedia for days on end.

Born 1970? Named for Robert Hunter? Lyricist for the Grateful Dead? Drug Problem? Unexpected!

I'm watching that, too.

[definitelynotaliberal]

So sickening, I wish I hadn’t read it. I didn’t think I could despise Biden more, but apparently, it’s always possible.

THAT'S MY BOY!!!

[jazusamo]

AMEN! You’ve got that right, my FRiend.

[Carl Vehse]

So what will Hunter do now? Be a traitor like his old man?!?

Thanks! Caught just the last of it. Michelle doesn’t hold back. :)

She hasn't been on Fox for a long time. I forget if she excommunicated Fox, or vice versa. Good to see her in fine form.

Depressing voter fraud story, though.

[Kaslin]

You can count on lots of fraud going on by the left.

The rats just have no shame. If fraud is the only way to win I rather lose

[combat_boots]

Is Hunter the Biden that’s on the board of Gazprom?

[jazusamo]

Well said, Kas!

[Kaslin]

She used to be on Fox and Friends every Monday at a certain time, I believe

BIG GOVERNMENT IS CRONY SOCIALISM. They infest and/or destroy.

But seriously, what did you expect? This is the way of the patrician class...on both sides of the aisle. This isn’t even news.
