Breitbart-
Eastland, whom Biden has praised as a friend and mentor, was called the “voice of the white South” for his support of Jim Crow and propensity for referring to African Americans as “an inferior race.” Talmadge, who served as governor of Georgia before being elected to the Senate, was another fierce opponent of civil rights and integration. In the wake of the Brown v. Board of Education decision, which struck down segregation in public schools, Talmadge promised to do everything in his power to protect “separation of the races.”
That was not the only instance when Biden praised avowed segregationists. Last week, Breitbart News reported on a speech Biden gave on the floor of the Senate praising the late-Sen. John Stennis (D-MS) upon his retirement in 1988.
“To think that I would be one day on the floor of the United States Senates, being paid such accolades by such a man of character and courage as John Stennis is beyond my wildest dreams,” Biden said. “And I mean that sincerely.”
When pressed on the comments, Biden stood defiant saying there was no need for him to apologize.
!snip!
Of course he doesn’t, because in his childlike mind he’s created a world where he is the hero and beyond reproach, instead of the mildly retarded blowhard joke that he really is.
Look. Here’s the deal. Here’s the thing. You BLEW IT, Joe. And it’s a big fuckin’ deal.
Gosh. Has EVERYONE forgotten Robert Byrd?
That is the problem, Joe praised DEMOCRAT segregationists and Trump did not say natzis were good people. But if you listen to the media, if they even cover Joe’s comment they say he praised republican segregationists and they will not let that Charlottesville lie go.
Have you ever had to change a foam filter on some piece of equipment and found that it was so old that it had lost all resilience, was clogged with nasty old dirt, and would crumble into dust when you tried to flex it?
That’s Joey’s brain.
^ Just as long as it doesn’t happen to us, Uncle Al. 🙂
I will be curious to see how he polls in a couple of weeks, after the hype of this week’s debates has calmed down. I have a feeling he may still be ahead, even with minorities and women. We shall see.
Think Governor Northam.
I really want fossilized old Joe to tank.
The Democrats will be left with only the shrill and psychotic unAmerican socialist scum candidates.
@Left Coast Dan – I’m inclined to agree. Getting all his crappy baggage out earlier rather than later could well be, in today’s Dem campaigning strategy to win over an electorate with short memories, shorter attention spans, and the ability to go on acting stupidly even after multiple smacks upside the head with baseball bats, a winner.
We’re seeing patient zero in the coming epidemic of BSE:
Bidenine Spongiform Encephalopathy, a/k/a Mad Prog Disease.
It’s clearly spread by spittle flecks, and highly contagious.
And to think this hapless buffoon mopped the floor with Paul Ryan in a debate a few years back.
