White House blocks Fauci from testifying.

Nope, nothing suspicious about that, either.

He's dangerous knowledgeable

GASP!

Kid found a scandalous headline!

Kid, the folks put on ventilators are the sickest patients. They have a piss-poor survival rate. We knew this already.

Where've you been?

"The Governor of Michigan should give a little, and put out the fire. These are very good people, but they are angry. They want their lives back again, safely! See them, talk to them, make a deal."







"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a bitch off the field right now?' Out. He's fired. He's fired! You know what's hurting the game? When people like yourselves turn on television and you see those people taking the knee when they're playing our great national anthem."

White privilege.

I had much the same reaction,  ticking off in my head all the groups who wouldn't be allowed to do this.

Why not?

Read
The
Link.

Or have a sardine.   Whatever.

I did which is why I asked the question.

The theory is that in NY they so dread the spread of the virus that they are sacrificing many to the ventilator-----> death routine.

I'd like tos ee some stats outside NY.

Cuomo spouts - "80% never come off - what can you do?" as if it is accepted gospel.

If this was China that nurse would be dead by now

I did which is why I asked the question.

 Are you seriously asking if a group of angry black men or angry Muslims,  armed with assault weapons, would be allowed to storm into the Michigan capitol building and terrorize the legislature?   And why they wouldn't ??

As my former neighbor from Deptford,  England would have said,  "pull the other one,  mate! "  LoL!

[kiidcarter8]

O.W.S.

Let's go!!!!!!!

Is it my imagination or is kiid melting down like Trump in real time?

LOL. 
Nothing like a tailor made and hysterical hypothetical.
In the real world the number of anti-Trump rallies and marches organized by minorities are numerous and went on as planned.
Meanwhile we are supposed to be mortified when fascist governors meet resistance from taxpayers whose constitutional rights  are trampled on?
Don’t think so.

Okay. The story I read had the timeline messed up and I failed to doublecheck.

And not all of them are bad for Biden.

But it is an odd confluence, regardless.

Josh,  I see these as the possibilities:

1. She was harassed by Biden,  and then,  at a later date after 1998, decided to amplify the story to make her status as a victim more clear-cut, and used racy details borrowed (wittingly or unwittingly) from Dad's novel.   A partial fabrication.

2.  Sexual scenes in racy novels often involve manual penetration,  and the similarities are coincidence.    She didn't confide in her father between 1993-98 about an actual sexual assault which just happened to share elements with the fictional scene he wrote.

3.  (more disturbing)  She did confide in her father and he,  God only knows why,  used details of her story in a novel and turned an assault into a sexy and titillating tryst.  If this were the case, the guy has horrendous issues. 

4.  Reade has a major mental illness which led her to believe in an encounter that in fact she had only fantasized, a projection of her perhaps legitimate fears of men with power.

5.  Reade is lying completely,  also lied completely back in the 90s,  and unwittingly borrowed elements of her current lie from a book by her father, and is a sane person who, for personal reasons, or political reasons,  or both,  wants to take down old Joe.   

So far,  I'm drawing no conclusions as to whether any of these, or none of these,  are what really happened.   I want to believe someone who is a real victim,  but pretty much everything I've ever heard about Biden,  in the past four decades,  makes the alleged behavior seem utterly unlike him.

hmm

Maybe

But then why would Joe have ZERO recollection of the harassment?

6   There are people who know some things that have not yet come forweard

Asking,  please no out of context clip-quotes from that post. 

Am not suggesting any one scenario and some are very unlikely.   The list is to suggest a range of possibilities.  And yes,  people coming forward will eliminate some of them.
