Biden hails segregationists in old Senate: ‘At least there was some civility. We got things done’
Joe Biden, the Democratic presidential front-runner, singled out two notorious segregationists who were his party colleagues in the Senate in the 1970s as examples of politicians he could work with.
Speaking at his third New York fundraiser with wealthy donors on Tuesday, Biden talked about Senators James O. Eastland of Mississippi and Herman Talmadge of Georgia.
“I was in a caucus with James O. Eastland,” Biden, 76, said, according to a pool report, imitating the dead Southerner’s drawl. “He never called me boy, he always called me son.”
He then brought up another segregationist Democrat, “a guy like Herman Talmadge, one of the meanest guys I ever knew, you go down the list of all these guys.
“Well guess what? At least there was some civility. We got things done. We didn’t agree on much of anything. We got things done. We got it finished. But today, you look at the other side and you’re the enemy. Not the opposition, the enemy. We don’t talk to each other anymore.”
Eastland, who died in 1986 aged 81, said many times that he thought black people belonged to “an inferior race.” When later asked if he would change anything in his political career, he said that he “voted my convictions on everything.”
“We got things done”
But we don’t want you to! Stay out of our business and stop trying to control us!
Our Joey, he’s such an honest crook. He really does belong in a pasture somewhere with the other oldsters. When will his family stage an intervention and convince him that it’s time to stop embarrassing himself?
Biden is bragging that his racist mentor called this wet behind the ears congressman white boy “son” rather than “boy”?
But they got things done.
Like Joe brought the coffee and nodded his head in agreement with the democrat apartheidist, racists
Go get me a donut Joey. Yazzir.
he haw, joe gunna git er dun
XD
There’s probably a picture somewhere of Joe groping Talmadge’s granddaughter. Hell, Joe’s probably nuzzled up the granddaughter’s granddaughter. He’s been around a while.
Joey’s having a hard time focusing his mind on politics and campaigning. He keeps fantasizing about getting things done…with little girls no more than 1/6 his own age.
Biden; “I CAN WORK WITH KLANSMEN ANS DOUCHEBAGS BUT TRUMP SUPPORTERS ARE A BRIDGE TOO FAR.”
Screw this guy.
Technically anybody who isn’t specifically me can go screw themselves, but you know what I mean.
Now We need a photoshop of Biden Nuzzling Margaret Sanger …
Ah, yes. Civility.
They are trying to turn back the imaginary clock to Jim Crow and slave days. Dey gun putch ya’ll back in chainz!
Civility. Haha. Go fuck yourself.
Trump’s going to wipe the floor with this buffoon.
DJT-
”Hey Joey. Why don’t you go home and get your shine box.”
Even Abe Lincolns wife Mary knew enough to keep little Joey from their daughters.
I mean… he’s right and yet he’s wrong.
What a messed up mess his head must be.
