She committed the ultimate sin of having a vagina.  Remember all the “I’m all for having a woman president, just not that woman!  I’d have been happy to vote for Elizabeth Warren!”  Then in 2020 when Warren actually ran, “She’s no longer progressive enough!” I won’t ever get over it either. 

The vast majority of people did acknowledge that. Can we blame the electoral college? You know, the real problem here?

THIS. It was “a different time,” no matter how offensive that argument is. A lot of us wanted Thomas run out of town. Thanks to the hearings being televised (a very unusual thing at the time), we all could see what a little bitch he was (and is). I’m slightly less of an ass than I was back then and all I can hope is…

Biden could have actually done something about it. He was the head of the Senate Judiciary Committee! He wasn’t some underling or some powerless rube. He was the most powerful person involved in that process. That you don’t remember much about his role is actually part of the problem, because he was supposed to be a…

I agree that he should apologize.

The confirmation hearing was the same year my boss told me I was a pretty girl and better get used to it when a coworker put both his hands up my skirt and grabbed my ass while I was on a ladder getting something off the top shelf in the supply room.  I was still a teenager.  I fucking hate that boss, that creep, and…

You can Google it, you know. Jezebel, the Washington Post, the NYT, etc extensively covered what a crap job Joe did at that time and after.

*Exhausted with Black women always having to be infinite fonts of grace and forgiveness for people who do not deserve either*

I WASN’T INSPIRED

So much heavy lifting is being done to clear any road block for Joe Biden right now. Why not in 2016? Why didn’t we acknowledge “super predators” was a bad look for Hillary Clinton but she had room to grow. Why wasn’t mediocre good enough in 2016? I don’t think I’ll ever get over it.

The goal posts have been changed. In 2020 we support Biden because he did not personally sexual assault women, like the current president. It is sort of interesting living through the apocalypse.

The thing that I really appreciate more than ever about this is that Anita Hill has demonstrated the difference in choosing the best path for those who have been/will be harmed instead of using phrases like “purity tests” or “cancel culture” to let people off the hook at the drop of a hat to get what she wants.

Wow, the degree of not getting the point of your comment is high on this thread.

Right? Did they go around the room the first day and declare dietary preferences?

Oh my god, that’s funny. Nothing says “I am a strong, confident man” like intentionally hurting yourself just because there are lots of women around you. Also, I find it really hard to believe that every single woman in the program was vegetarian or vegan.

I love how his account has us try to believe that he, a lowly captain, stopped the orders of the senior NATO officer for Europe (a US General) and that the British commander of the entire NATO Kosovo Taskforce Mike Jackson (also a General) saying no prior to any potential orders even reaching Blunt was the minor…

Sure. I’ve scattered stories about that thing in my house through the comment sections for years. The best is probably this one, which you can find here:

LOL - Thank you! I was surprised they didn’t correct that or at least put in a (sic) It does bring up a very different image than the author surely intended.

“This was one of those towns that had a diner where everyone goes in the morning.”

Um... “Toe head” brings a very different (and much more hilarious) picture than does a “towhead.” Likewise “heard animal” and “herd animal.”
