Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden apologized on Tuesday night for referring to the impeachment proceedings against former President Bill Clinton as “partisan lynching” in 1998.
And he is in the lead, right?
I’m so tired of old white men today.
He apologizes for calling Clinton’s partisan lynching a “partisan lynching.” Next he’ll say that he’d consider restoking the partisan Benghazi frenzy because it’s something that may need to be revisited. Oh, and What about her emails?
He’s got about as much conviction as a dishrag on a clothesline.
Would panties be in a twist over this if Trump hadn’t brought the word to the for?
Stay out of it, Joe. No need for you to insert yourself into this discussion and CERTAINLY not to bring up your own misstep that can now allow the media to point to ‘both sides do it’.
Stay out of it, Joe.
Another example of many of Biden’s racially insensitive remarks.
And you felt the need to bring this up now why?
Did he bring it up? The last paragraph reads to me like he is responding to others bringing it up.
That’s what CNN keeps trying to sell me.
It was a Figurative Partisan Lynching because it was over one lie of a consensual affair with a WH intern…
If Bill Clinton was impeached for that
Then why is the Orange Russian-Installed Squatter-in-the-WH NOT impeached for the 130K hush payment?
And let us NOT forget the Benghazi and But Her Emails…
The articles isn’t exactly clear on that. Okay, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he was responding to a question. Unfortunately it doesn’t matter at this point.
He was responding to a tweet, not a question.
Correct. He just moved it up the chart of items to discuss, and once again put himself in a defensive crouch.
Its easier to get a dog to walk around on two legs than it is to get Biden to get out of a defensive crouch.
I’m no Biden fan but this is the right move. It would have come up at some point. Best that it comes up now, when there’s so much else going on. The chaos actually suits a flawed candidate like Biden.
But the Clinton impeachment WAS a partisan lynching.
Right.
I don’t know…I think we are seeing the death by a thousand cuts playing out here.
He isn’t getting out in front and leading on anything…so he isn’t raking up wins. Instead he is constantly apologizing for something. I said this a long time ago, and I think its still true…at some point, people are just going to get tired of constantly having to defend him.
Right now, there are still a lot of people undecided, and a lot of people committed to people who won’t last. I don’t see Biden making a very good case for those people to come support him, except…I am in the lead.
Shoot, I’m so tired of being told there’s a difference between old white men and old white women.
It’s different when an actual racist like Trump says it, and Biden apologized, something an actual human does.
But the Clinton impeachment WAS a partisan lynching.
yes it was but Clinton provided the rope,
