Former Vice President Joe Biden, who is under fire for praising segregationists, lied about his stance on busing to desegregate public schools again on Thursday. I never, never, never opposed voluntary busing, Biden told an audience gathered in Chicago, Illinois.
The statement, however, is in direct contradiction to Bidens more than 40-year career in public office.
I oppose busing, Biden told a local Delaware newspaper in 1975. Its an asinine concept, the utility of which has never been proven to me Ive gotten to the point where I think our only recourse to eliminate busing may be a constitutional amendment.
At the time, Biden recognized that his views effectively put him in the same camp as avowed racists and segregationists.
The unsavory part about this is when I come out against busing, as I have all along, I dont want to be mixed up with a George Wallace, he said.
Biden proceeded to explain that if busing was allowed to go forward, there would be profoundly negative impacts on society.
The real problem with busing, he said. Is you take people who arent racist, people who are good citizens, who believe in equal education and opportunity, and you stunt their childrens intellectual growth by busing them to an inferior school . . . and youre going to fill them with hatred.
During the first Democrat presidential debate on Thursday, Biden was confronted about that position on busing by Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA).
There was a little girl in California who was part of the second class to integrate her public schools and she was bussed to school every day. That little girl was me, Harris said. So I will tell you that on this subject, it cannot be an intellectual debate among Democrats. We have to take it seriously

That whole sentence is a LIE.
Yyyeahhh. I think that’s the whole point, Buttface. Busing wasn’t voluntary. But, just for the sake of argument, let’s say it was. That would be the same as school choice, would it not? Where do you and your fellow ‘RATS stand on school choice?
I oppose busing, Biden told a local Delaware newspaper in 1975. Its an asinine concept, the utility of which has never been proven to me Ive gotten to the point where I think our only recourse to eliminate busing may be a constitutional amendment.
Might be the only intelligent thing Biden has ever said.

So what?
Serial liar, looter should be in prison.
Nearly 50 years of leeching off the citizens of the republic.
List of Grievances ALERT!
You know what? In a way, Kalamata makes Gropin’ Joe’s point. She is full of hate. One can only assume it’s a result of busing.

I’m so glad the demoncats are re-litigating Brown vs Board of Education. In the meantime, POTUS and the republicans can continue to move America forward and talk about positive things and the future.
That's... shockingly rational. I mean, from a Dem. Man, they really, really have lunged to the left in the last few decades.
Are they going to fact check Kamalalala?
Segregationist Praise? What, then, will happen to people who praise Abraham Lincoln?
Still, there are a lot of valid reasons not to like ole Joe.
“So what?”
That’s exactly what I’ve been posting. She never explained what was so important about that sentence - was it a good thing or a bad thing that she was the “little girl in California?”
That was such a sorry looking bunch of humans on that stage last night. I wouldn’t vote for one of them for dog catcher. Even if I didn’t know they were democrats, not one would I seek a friendship with - they are that HIDEOUS and hateful. Hate makes them ugly!
Kamala says she was bussed to integrate the 2nd class.....

Well, the moral of the story
The moral of this song,
Is simply that one should never be
Where one does not belong.
Another place she does not belong: the White House.
Perhaps Oprah, Harvey’s pimp, can jump in to save the day for the ‘rats.
Are bookies taking bets yet on how soon before Biden withdraws?
People in DE must be in a fighting mood defending their ole Joe.
“”He’s had a lifelong reservation on the short bus.””
LOL.. He has no clue what a clown he is - HE WAS BORN IN SCRANTON, don’t you know? Took a train to work in DC from Delaware every day, don’t you know? Then he was given a huge big old house in DC to live in off the taxpayers for 8 years and it was grand! Dems all around hero - an all around jerk to the rest of us!
