A new liberal refrain: So what if Biden did it?
Fox News ^ | May 06 2020 | Howard Kurtz

Posted on 05/07/2020 2:13:04 AM PDT by knighthawk

The defense of Joe Biden on the allegations that have disrupted his campaign has gone through some fascinating twists and turns.

At first, in the wake of Tara Reade’s accusation that he sexually assaulted her in 1993, the reaction in media and political circles was largely silence. Reade seemed to come out of nowhere, so there was little need to acknowledge her story.

Many media outlets stuck with silence after the New York Times and Washington Post published their accounts 19 days later. In other outlets, the second reaction was that she was probably not telling the truth -- after all, no Biden Senate staffer could recall her making the charge and no one could find the complaint she says she filed.

That is PRECISELY what I have heard regarding William the Impeached: so what if he did it?

Wymyn just didn’t care that he was a serial rapist and adulterer. He made them feel like they were the most important girl in the room. And he was on the correct side of the abortion issue.

[Man, these people are breathtakingly evil!]

They march in the streets, proudly declaring marriage for homosexuals as a “good thing”.

They donate money to Planned Parenthood to murder an unborn fetus and call it “women’s health”.

They boo Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

They are of the spirit of antichrist. A few have escaped their cult of death. They call themselves “former Democrats”.

I am waiting for leftists to say “it’s her fault, she enticed him!” or “boys will be boys” or the old favorite “she should have just lain back and enjoyed it!”

It is truly remarkable how little leftist “femminists” care for “non-femminst” women. Mr. Biden, like Mr. Clinton before him, has get out jail free card for rape, sexual assault, and sexual harassment.

There are a few folks out there calling out their fellow leftists, but they are few and far between.

So what if Biden did it? My questions to these people would go unanswered but they would be: “How many women would he go on to abuse if he were President? How many would be too many? Would you ignore groping of breasts, buttocks and crotch? Would you ignore outright forcible rape? Would you ignore sexual assaults on females under the age of 18? If you would tolerate such predatory behavior, you’re saying that you would justify your vote for Biden because of all the good he would do for women?”

That can be summed up in one word:

“Doublethink”.

Honestly, I’d be asking the same question. Joe Biden has been a corrupt, retarded A-hole for decades. If that didn’t disqualify him from spending his entire adult life in Washington, then surely it’s not a big deal.

If Mary Jo Kopechne had survived Chappaquiddick, she would have spent the rest of her life covering up and making excuses for that bloated, drunken loser who drive the car off the bridge.
