after rape -- a genuine, vicious crime -- and what's appropriate after an allegation of what may or may not be inappropriate social interaction and may, in fact, be have been kind reassurance.

On behalf of the Republicans, though, congrats on connecting "rape" and "Biden." Implanting viciously dishonest and hurtful associations is exactly what the swiftboaters want.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Didn't she say Biden sniffed her hair and kissed her on the back of the head? SMC22307 Mar 2019 #1

If you'll look at other threads about this, you'll see that there are a lot of problems with her highplainsdem Mar 2019 #11

Just copy and paste this on everyone of the of these hit posts. LakeArenal Apr 2019 #79

There is a thread that is not flattering to her Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #89

Kissed her on the BACK of her head (The Cut article), then a couple of days later... George II Apr 2019 #17

Not so sure that description was accurate though. emulatorloo Apr 2019 #77

Please delete. Would you say a rape victim is not to be believed if she ever had sex? unblock Mar 2019 #2

No, she works for OR. I think she is lying and a hand on the shoulder is not rape, Demsrule86 Mar 2019 #3

Her consenting to Bernie's contact proves *nothing* regarding biden. unblock Mar 2019 #5

Really? So Biden is offensive but Sanders is just fine. She is offensive. Demsrule86 Mar 2019 #7

If she lied, sure, that's despicable. unblock Mar 2019 #13

Biden came up from behind her, surprising her, gripped her shoulders pnwmom Apr 2019 #22

No, she doesn't work for Our Revolution. She publicly left them almost a year ago. pnwmom Apr 2019 #20

Discredited. sheshe2 Apr 2019 #32

That is outdated. The main Mission page doesn't include her. n/t pnwmom Apr 2019 #47

Really she was listed after that and is a Sanders surrogate. If this leads Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #65

Offs. I'm not saying they're similar. unblock Mar 2019 #16

Why delete? She is NOT A RAPE VICTIM!!! That you equate whatever might or might have not.... George II Apr 2019 #18

i didn't equate it. does no one understand logic anymore? unblock Apr 2019 #19

How do you know she gave consent in the Sanders pic? ucrdem Apr 2019 #24

Again, all I'm saying is that the o.p. sheds zero light on her claim. unblock Apr 2019 #38

It's relevant. For one thing it points to the absence of a photo supporting her claim. ucrdem Apr 2019 #40

The fact that a picture of her exists points to a lack of a pic of a specific moment? unblock Apr 2019 #43

Yes. The picture that exists contradicts her story. nt ucrdem Apr 2019 #45

Logic? unblock Apr 2019 #33

Unblock, you linked rape with Biden in another thread Hortensis Apr 2019 #53

i did something but you didn't look to see? unblock Apr 2019 #61

How do you have proof Bernie asked her first? treestar Apr 2019 #60

i don't have proof, it's the o.p. that is making the implication unblock Apr 2019 #63

It has nothing to do with rape or sexual assault. Her complaint is about ordinary social touching. treestar Apr 2019 #69

it has to do with consent, and it's not a hard concept. unblock Apr 2019 #72

I recall something in case law about battery (offensive touching) treestar Apr 2019 #75

As a victim of sexual assault do not equate what happened to her to what happened to me. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #90

It is not sexual! Why aren't you defending men in that context too? treestar Apr 2019 #71

When it comes to sex, yes, but it is very high maintenance treestar Apr 2019 #70

I don't get it. Are you saying it's weird that a woman might have opinions about who can WhiskeyGrinder Apr 2019 #68
