It’s not the bullet with my name on it that worries me. It’s the one that says, “To whom it may concern.”

When you look at the current prominent Democrats, it’s glaringly apparent that the Dems have worse woes than people suddenly becoming bothered by Creepy Uncle Joe. Biden’s issues are the least of their problems.
Joe Biden’s – aka Creepy Uncle Joe – current woes are actually lamentable, though entirely expected, or almost so. It was likely only a matter of time and “usefulness” before some woman or set of women voiced outrage over Biden’s very well established and documented misunderstanding of people’s, especially women’s, personal space.
So, now Ole Joe is embroiled in debacle and the Left is seemingly split upon the matter, with some siding with Biden and other’s reviling him. And the debacle is exacerbated by both Biden not being able to say he didn’t do it and by his utter inability not to gaffe when put under pressure. And that is, to me at least, both lamentable and very indicative of some of our nation’s current problems.
Yes, Biden has a long history of invading people’s personal spaces and making them uncomfortable. But also yes, all reports indicate that he is a kind man who never once meant anything “appropriateness” by that behavior and held neither disrespect for- or ill will towards anyone he acted in that way towards. And #IBelieveHim! 😉
Yet, according to the Feminists and their enablers, motive and intent don’t matter at all. All that matters is how the woman or womyn feels about whatever happened. Indeed, by the same rules, any argument by a man about his intentions is just “mansplaining,” “patriarchal condescension,” and “enabling Rape Culture.”
But that just brings up the nasty, tangled knot of hypocrisy among the Left over this sort of issue. So many of them made is stridently clear that they “believed” the utterly unconfirmed and refuted accusations against Justice Kavanaugh but believe Biden to the point of accusing the women who complained of being political operatives. But, at the same time, so many of them who signal as true believers of #MeToo, being apparently as against Biden as they were Kavanaugh, seem to be associated with other 2020 Democrat candidates.
Yeah, it’s a lamentable mess. But at least it’s not our problem. It’s the Democrats problem.
Yeah! Certain sorts that Americans are still having to deal with came up with this as a doomsday scenario in the event that President Trump used his lawful authority to close the US-Mexico border in response to the growing crisis there. Avocados! We won’t have Avocados!
Holy guacamole, indeed! But then, this sort of hysterical lunacy is what happens when our domestic enemies try to come up with some sort of compelling reason that closing the US-Mexico border would be bad for- and/or somehow harm the American people.
Admittedly, in the past some Dems have made more cogent, if heinous, arguments for keeping that border as open as possible while, perforce, not changing immigration laws.
Warming up or not, some over-the-knee socks are still a fine idea. After all, warm feet mean that they can skimp on some other clothing and still be comfortable. And, of course, doing so will warm up any and all around them as well, which is even better.
