bostonangler Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 Former vice president and 2020 presidential hopeful Joe Biden raised eyebrows after making a comment many called “inappropriate” during his appearance at a Houston, Texas, town hall hosted by the American Federation of Teachers on Tuesday. During the event, Biden took a question from a young girl in the audience about divisions in the U.S. “What I’m going to do, is if you give me an address, I’m going to write you a longer answer and tell you the exact things I’m going to do, OK? Promise?” he said. “I’ll bet you’re as bright as you are good-looking.” Biden then asked the girl what her favorite subject was in school, to which she replied “journalism, I guess.” He joked that he should “be more circumspect” in his answers as he took her by the hand and led her over to the section of the room where members of the press were stationed. Then, Biden put his hands on the young girl’s shoulders, saying, “The reason who we are who we are is called a free press.” Biden’s behavior has previously come under scrutiny after multiple women came forward with accusations of unwelcome physical contact or interactions with the former vice president before he announced that he would run for the White House in 2020. He addressed the allegations in a video posted to his Twitter account in April. “Social norms have begun to change, they’ve shifted and the boundaries of protecting personal space have been reset and I get it. I get it,” he said. “I hear what they’re saying, I understand it, and I’ll be much more mindful. That’s my responsibility.” https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/joe-biden-slammed-inappropriate-town-191815599.html Are all politicians idiots?

cranman Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 Yes! Yes they are! They are so far removed from the real lives people live and the way that real people are supposed to act that they have no clue on how to serve the very people that elected them. So what do they do? They forget about us and serve themselves. I truly believe the few politicians who don't make the news are the ones trying to make a difference ( no matter how small) for you and I. They just keep getting trampled by the ones who have to prove on a daily basis that they could care less about you and I. They only care about the parties success! That puts the blame on both sides of the isle where it belongs! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indraman Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 I am going to give Joe a pass on this one...our country and world has gone so PC, and the #MeToo movement has distorted human interaction so much that anything that used to be considered within the norm of possibility is now considered a "Freak Show". I am not like Joe, but I have known people who were similar... Joe was asked a question and responded, "I'll bet you are as bright as you are good looking". Oh the inhumanity! Since when does giving a girl a compliment about her beauty and intelligence mean something is wrong with Joe? Indy 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad part is Joe wasn't even facing his audience when he made that statement. He was facing a window & saw a Wendy's Hamburger billboard.....Ol Joe the gift that keeps on a giving 24/7. I'm pulling for him to be the Dems choice in 2020 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pulling for him to be the Dems choice in 2020 Me too, no, I'm not a dem or Joe fan but look at what else we have offered in the event that Trump doesn't get reelected. The horror of socialism, full term abortion and wide open borders will come full fruiton and we will be the next fallen nation. Joe only speaks of what the far left agenda (cheek and tongue) to reach what could otherwise never be in his camp....I just believe he is still old school Democrat that will do away with the radical left thoughts if he is elected. I know he is still left but not radical in his heart as his opponents. We once again must rally and reelect Trump.....the only way our country will survive and bring about a future for our Children and grand children . I still believe that that there are more silent rightwingers in this country than left but we are going to have to fight and vote, vote, vote to overcome. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtFuryUSCZ Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 ***/// Only the sick, twisted group the Dem Party has become since being hijacked by the kommies could endorse a filthy pig like Creepy Uncle Joe as their chosen leader. He's another classic example of a groomed 'tool'... a puppet, just like ho'bummer, built by the global elites to do their bidding. And we all know about the vast network of pedo's THAT group consists of.... Yuck. . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
