WAR HAWK JOE BIDEN HAS SPENT YEARS TRYING TO SLASH SOCIAL SECURITY.
IT'S A FACT JOE SEEMS UNFAMILIAR WITH.
HE'S UNFAMILIAR WITH SO MUCH THESE DAYS -- INCLUDING WHETHER HE WANTS TO DEFEAT DONALD TRUMP OR NOT.
BUT THEN HE'S AN O'BIDEN BAMA DEMOCRAT WHO IS NOT SURE WHICH WOMAN IS HIS WIFE AND WHICH IS HIS SISTER.
FROM THE TCI WIRE:
Starting in the US where the Democratic Party's race for the presidential nomination is now a three-person race. Yesterday, Senator Elizabeth Warren dropped out.
Our work continues, the fight goes on, and big dreams never die. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
That means only three people remain in the race: Senator Bernie Sanders, Iraq War veteran and US House Rep Tulsi Gabbard and War Hawk Joe Biden.
Exactly how much Elizabeth Warren's gender affected her run will be the stuff of months — or years — of study. There's already some analysis showing that sexism hurt women candidates in this Democratic field.
Don't talk about Elizabeth's gender if you're not serious about gender discrimination. If you're serious about it, you'll be defending Tulsi from it.
If you're serious about ending it, you'll defend any woman who is targeted with sexism.
Was sexism at play?
Some don't believe so.
I would love in my lifetime to see a woman president but Elizabeth Warren did not fail to get votes because of gender... she was front runner until she had huge problem paying for her healthcare plan and then poll numbers hit the skids w/ that;women can win nominations:HRC
And Greta's got some good points. There's also the Native American issue. Elizabeth, once she realized she was wrong and was not Native American, could have made a joke to let everyone laugh together and end the whole thing. Instead, she remained on the defensive about it. That wasn't smart politics.
But, unlike Greta, I do see gender issues at play. I see Joe Biden, for example, cutting her off in the debates, dismissing her, distorting her. He did that with Amy Klobuchar as well and certainly with Kamala Harris. This was a gendered response that he had and he should have to answer for it and so should the moderators who allowed it to take place.
Of the moderators, the worst were Norah O'Donnell and Gayle King who elected to dismiss Elizabeth and dismiss the discussion of harassment in the work place. Yes, women can be sexist to other women and Norah and Gayle were an embarrassment.
Tiny Pete was condescending to Bernie, yes. But that was nothing compared to the way he sneered at Elizabeth and Amy. And he wasn't called on it by the press. No, a day after the debate, he was seen as someone who'd really 'scored' by ripping apart a woman. Contrast that with Chris Matthews attacking Elizabeth for asking about Bloomberg's history of harassment. Elizabeth did not invent those charges, nor was she exposing them. The harassment had been well documented by THE WASHINGTON POST. But somehow, when Elizabeth is using that report, it's time to question her and attack her for believing a woman over Michel Bloomberg, as Chris Matthews put it. First of all, THE POST had corroboration from others. Second, a large pattern of harassment had been documented and it was not just one woman.
