Biden Is So Dumb He Needs A Spotter To Work On A Sudoku Puzzle

Joe Biden has issued yet another non-apology to Anita Hill.  At the Biden Courage Awards in New York Tuesday night, he said he regretted how the Senate Judiciary Committee, which he chaired, handled Anita Hill’s sexual harassment allegations against Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.

“A brave lawyer, a really notable woman, Anita Hill, a professor, showed the courage of a lifetime talking about her experience being harassed by Clarence Thomas, but she paid a terrible price. She was abused in the hearing. She was taken advantage of. Her reputation was attacked. I wish I could have done something.”

Hill insists after 28 years Biden has yet to apologize to her.

A published report from the Atlanta Journal Constitution stated Biden had met with defeated Georgia gubernational candidate Stacey Abrams to discuss the possibility of her being his running mate for 2020.  Abrams quashed that notion when she appeared on ABC’s The View telling the audience, “you don’t run for second place.”  Ouch!

Biden has been playing a drawn out game of hide-and-seek over whether he will announce his candidacy for president. Democrats are desperately searching for someone who can defeat President Trump in 2020.

Several political operatives who worked or volunteered for Biden’s 2008 campaign have signaled they are unlikely to do so this cycle, in part, because they know the embarrassments are coming.

Uncle Joe Biden’s loose lips and outmoded attitudes won’t fly with today’s Democrat Party renegades.

Joe’s going to need an astounding amount of campaign cash to mount a successful challenge against the throng of arrogant pukes who’ve already thrown their hat in the ring.

Way back in 2008, his ill-fated presidential campaign managed to reach 5% in the national polls.  When the Iowa caucus votes tallied a dismal 1%, he dropped out of the race.

The brains in Biden’s head make beluga caviar look like sawdust.

The good folks at the Washington Free Beacon unearthed a video from the 1970s where Biden argued the political system was inherently corrupt and forced candidates to go to “the people who have money” who always “want something.”

"You run the risk of deciding whether or not you're going to prostitute yourself to give the answer you know they want to hear in order to get funded to run for that office," Biden testified during the program.

Biden admits he decided to "prostitute" himself but was denied because of his age.

"I went to the big guys for the money," Biden said. "I was ready to prostitute myself in the manner in which I talk about it, but what happened was they said, ‘Come back when you're 40, son.'"

"So, I had to go out, I had to go out to a number of small contributors," he said.

Biden goes on to say his ability to raise money despite his rejection from big donors—he said he raised $276,000—was due to his unique identity as a young person.

"I'm a 29-year-old oddball," he said. "The only reason I was able to raise the money is that I was able to have a national constituency to run for office, because I was 29."

"I'm like the token black or the token woman," Biden said. "I was the token young person."

The broader issue is Biden has been around politics so long his votes while a senator can and will be picked apart as evidence that he is simply not the right person to lead an increasingly diverse, younger and more female Democratic Party. 

His stewardship over the Thomas hearing and his vote in favor of the 1994 crime bill are the two most obvious examples of that problem, but there are and will be others.

Business As Usual: The Snake Is Having Sex With The Vulture

Yesterday, The First Wookiee spoke at a Democratic National Committee fundraiser in Chi-Town to extort exhort the party faithful to “dig deep” into their pockets.  Fearful of losing the senate in the November midterms, something that will call a halt to The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer’s socialist agenda she said, "I kid you not.  I'm going to be honest with you. That's what we need you to do right now. We need you to write the biggest, fattest check that you can possibly write."

She continued, “Writing those checks is the single most impactful thing that you can do right now. When you dig deep, when you max out, that translates into staff hired and offices opened and ads running where they need to run.”

Let’s step back in time for just a skosh.

Four months before the 2008 general election, “The Messiah” reneged on his long-standing support of public financing.  His decision to become the first candidate to opt out of public financing freed him to raise vast amounts of money via Internet-driven fundraising.

After the election The Washington Post reported that his political shakedown machine had raised half-a-billion dollars online in his 21-month campaign for the White House.

On November 15, 2012, Time was reporting that when the final numbers were counted, $1 billion had greased the grubby palms of TWMDCO.

He is paid $400,000 a year.  We have already heard that there is “donor fatigue” and Mark Schlapp, former White House political advisor, is suggesting that the “Obama political machine is broken.”

There was speculation this week that TWMDCO and The Wookiee were eyeing a Rancho Mirage mansion worth $4.25 million.  TMZ now reports that famed interior decorator Michael S. Smith didn't like the house at all.  “It's pushed up against the mountain, it doesn't have a lot of light and it's just not that stylish.”  The buyer passed.

Even so, the mere fact that the mansion was under consideration is a clear indicator that the pretentious outrage of “too much money in politics” is a false flag.

The Wookiee added, “There’s special interests that have too much influence. But they had all that money and all that influence back in 2008 and 2012 and we still won those elections,” as she pleaded with fellow Dems to add even more cash to the political system.

Yep, the snake is having sex with the vulture.

Time Magazine: All Our Circulation Are Belong To Jug Ears

Photoshop of TIME's Photoshop

The August 2012 cover of Time shows the White House with a "For Sale: Asking $2.5 billion" sign on the lawn. The cover accompanies the story "How To Buy The White House," which examines what managing editor Rick Stengel says will be the most expensive U.S. election ever.

Team Jug Ears shattered all fundraising records on his way to victory in 2008, raking in a staggering $668 million.

Michael Scherer writes, “Four years ago, the presidential campaign was a celebration of the little guy. Two thirds of the money raised by Barack Obama came online, and 34% of his money came from donors who gave less than $200.”

Time seems to be whining that the current regime is lagging behind Team Romney in fundraising.

Kerry Pickett notes, “The Obama campaign is finding that donations, bundled neatly by high dollar fundraisers in 2008, are not coming in so easily. As a result, President Obama’s campaign  turned to Super PACs that Obama once vilified and the Obama campaign’s super PAC, Priorities USA, according to USA Today, can team up with another super PAC known as American Bridge 21st Century, a super PAC started by Media Matters founder and president David Brock.”

Not surprisingly, Time’s Stengel focuses on Romney’s fundraising without balancing the article about Obama’s current and past efforts.  Some of that all-important 2008 moola came from questionable—some say even make-believe—sources.

How donations from "Mr. Good Will" raised suspicions in Washington.



Lest, you think that the bottom of the barrel has been fully scraped, the rag they call Time, photoshopped a White House with a For Sale sign on the front lawn.

Only what is priceless, what cannot be bought or sold, is of genuine value.  What I’m talking about is America.

In January of 2011, the Obama campaign bragged about how badly they had defeated John McCain in fundraising and campaign spending and Democratic officials said the re-election campaign would begin raising $1billion.

The Left thinks their way has worked over the last four years.  We on The Right vehemently disagree.  So if Romney is leading Obama in fundraising, it must mean that we believe you must fight fire with fire to relieve this nation of the man of uncommon incompetence we have been saddled with these past four years.
