Yes b/c the left wingers come here to beat up poor ole DF! ...Would they? Do you think there's that much traffic because of it?

A mules left buttock would probably do a better, less narcissistic job than Trump has done. I get that you and many others here are conservatives, more than half my family, my husband etc are all conservatives. It's not you, or @redwood66 or @Queenie60 or anyone else here that is a conservative, or your beliefs or values, that I have an issue with - it is Trump.
Trump the man, Trump the person, Trump the President. He should NEVER have been allowed to be the leader of the free world and measuring his leadership on a global scale (because I don't live in the US and can do that pretty objectively) he is doing a terrible job. If you had a conservative leader doing a good job, like we do, I'd be more than happy to say that.
That's probably because "poor old DF" does a lot of defending of a President he supposedly didn't vote for. You guys could pick any decent conservative in politics and I'd have no further need to comment. You all seem to keep missing the point that I have a conservative government where I live, I didn't vote for them but they are doing a really great job during this health and economic crisis.

Sometimes what you perceive as stating your opinion is actually lashing out at others. When called out on it, you come back with your "opinion" being "just as valid" and act as if the target of your nastiness is trying to squelch you somehow. When you responded to @Tekate, you said there was hypocrisy in her post and that she needed to go back and look at her former contributions. Did you state what you found hypocritical? Did you care to get involved in an actual discussion? There were many things you could have asked to understand why someone might find a difference between Ford/Kavanaugh and Reade/Biden. You could have stated YOUR opinions of how the issues were similar or different. You did none of that. You just lashed out with that "I can't help myself but get involved, so much correction needed here" attitude.
...I expected people to remember their own views as they were so verbose for so many weeks.
I do remember my own views and what I posted here. There is no hypocrisy to be cited.
@Tekate's issue it appears was not with the lack of discussion but that she assumed I was attacking her own experience which was not the case at all.
It didn't read to me that you were attacking her own experience. It read to me that you were calling her a hypocrite after a particularly vulnerable moment; harsh words with a harsh tone.
My post was no different than her other argumentative posts to me. I am deeply sorry that she is upset.
Yes, you both can be very argumentative. I believe there are very hurt feelings here because you have both come to think of each other as friends.
I see no wiggle room when the BelieveAllWomen was such a prominent hashtag for so long. It was a stupid hashtag and doesn't allow for due process.
I agree with you that it was a stupid hashtag and that due process is a must. But "see no wiggle room" because of a hashtag? It's a hashtag, not a law and I don't even think a majority opinion - which is that all women should be heard.
The same due process that Biden supporters are calling for now. I'm sure Al Franken is wondering how Gillibrand and others can endorse Biden out of the same mouth as they called for Franken's resignation. Frankly I think Reade should have her day just like Blasey Ford. And Biden should speak up and be questioned about it. The whole MeToo movement has been submarined by that hashtag and that is a sad state of affairs for women.
I agree with you on much of this.. I think Reade should have her day, but I think Biden should choose whatever strategy is best for him politically. Dems need to stop being political purists and start playing by the republican playbook if they want to win.

I’m a liberal. And I’m disappointed in The fact that Biden is our choice given that a woman is alleging that he sexually assaulted her. As a feminist, I can’t look the other way. I would not be true to my convictions. I would be a sell -out. No. Not gonna resort to if Trump backers can look the other way... because that would strip me of my essence of being a liberal.

And you are one of those left wingers!... Remember, you promise to bake me a "Trump cake" if he wins re-election in Nov...OMG DF you crack me up! LOL!
New Evidence Supports Credibility of Tara Reade’s Allegation Against Biden
Reade’s mother called into the Larry King Live show in 1993 and discussed her daughter’s time with a “prominent senator.”theintercept.com
It is intriguing to me how different things will be in the future for accusations of past events. A recording of a call in to the Larry King show is so happenstance. Decades from now the receipts will be abundant and precise: emails, tweets, texts, photos, videos... One can only hope that in the present and future, women are empowered to not wait decades to tell their stories. For me, that would be a true positive outcome of #metoo.
I hope so @Maria D. I am hoping that the new evidence will make it hard for the legacy media to continue to ignore her.
What do you want them to do? This is evidence that she told her mother she experienced sexual harassment, it's not earth shattering.
Does it bother you that "legacy" media do not give much voice to Trump's accusers? I can't even name one off the top of my head.
What if all the media did devote time and energy to all these accusations? What can we do with he said/she said information that is too old to be substantiated? This isn't quaint old times as when Lewinsky left a stain on her dress thus proving that she was intimate with Clinton. Back then, even consensual sex was considered illicit if it was extra-marital. Now it is considered completely inconsequential unless it is sexual assault, something very hard to prove even if it happened yesterday, never mind decades ago.
Complete silence from the left wing media. (the I believe her crowd)..they don't even bring up the Reade topic when interviewing Biden.Oh I agree with all of that and said it in the Kavanaugh thread. I want women to be able to come forward when it happens. I want due process.
But what I also want is consistency from the MeToo Believeher crowd. Otherwise I have a hard time believing it was ever about the women.

She has pressed charges so there should be a trial, correct?
What do you think the right will do about this?Complete silence from the left wing media. (the I believe her crowd)..they don't even bring up the Reade topic when interviewing Biden.
