Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr., his Democratic presidential campaign battered by charges of plagiarism in his campaign speeches and in a law school paper, admitted yesterday that some of his boasts about his college academic achievements were untrue, including the claim that he had finished in the top half of his class in law school.

This rectal vent is looking more and more like a “prince among men”. I’ll bet the media has him with a 20 point lead now.

Top half is meaningless.

Top ten percent is what he should have lied about.

I finished in the bottom half - but I was working full-time on the midnight shift while going to school full-time days for 3 degrees.

Democrats can lie, cheat, steal, grope, rape... and the MSM is fine with it.

He just “mis-remembered”
/s

“Biden’s records that he released last week indicated he attended law school on a half-time scholarship based on financial need and that he graduated 76th out of a law school class of 85. His undergraduate academic records show that he graduated from Delaware 506th in a class of 688 with a “C” average and that he got his undergraduate degree with a dual major in history and political science.”

Below Average Biden barely beat the bottom quarter of his undergrad with his dual degree in History and Political Sci. Talk about two useless degrees, and the fact they are so inter-related as to make it meaningless to suggest they are distinct degrees. I can attest to that as I graduated with a B.A. in History and thanks to a summer internship in DC with a new Congressman I had nearly enough Poli-Sci to have obtained that second degree. However, having seen the light I had started my Engineering education and graduated with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering along with my History degree and was able to obtain useful employment.

Then his Law School, where he was consistently in the bottom 20%, going down to the bottom 10% in his second year and apparently only improving his position insignificantly to the bottom 11% with what appears to be others ahead of him dropping out of school.

Pathetic that this country is considering such a below average Joe for the Presidency who has never really accomplished or created anything. Trump on the other hand has accomplished and created much, whatever one might say about his academics (which weren’t bad).

There is a name for compulsive lying...mythomania and pseudologia fantastica. I like the way ‘fantastica’ sounds. LOL.
