Peoples’ lack of dignity never ceases to amaze me.

I can't even begin to imagine what goes on in the minds of such people. That was disgusting.

But did she get married?

Or, had went to Soviet Russia for his honeymoon? Or, spoke glowingly of dictators? Yet, BS will insist that he is being treated unfairly.

He wrote one essay about gender norms which began with with a shocking opening to grab reader's attention. It may have been a bad idea, but he did not write a series of rape fantasies. You can read the entire essay here:

it starts about half way down the page.

Noticed that was in the article you linked to and was like wtf? O_o

...here's what a New York Times article had to say on the topic back around the same time (1975).

And on hitchhiking in Vermont these days...

(and apparently can also find them via google whereas I cannot), can you please provide a link? Thanks!

You will find all sorts of luscious tit-bits.

My favorite was his declaration that 'the revolution' occurs when a young teenage girl ignores her mother's advice and goes ahead to have sex with her boyfriend.

His choice of 'raped by three men' as a prototypical fantasy of women says a good deal more about 'Bernie' than it does about women. There are plenty of other common fantasies people use to get themselves 'over the edge' on occasion with a familiar partner. Doubtless a few will suggest themselves to you. 'Secret Garden', by Nancy Friday, published not long after this production by 'Bernie' is full of them, and anyone with much experience would at the time have been aware of a range of things women fantasize about, from encounters with another woman to ordering a boyfriend about, to the proverbial 'zipless fuck' with a handsome stranger. He chose that fantasy, and you may note he goes on to claim tales of gang rape of pubescent girls were common fare in stag magazines of the time. They were not, they were not even a staple of 'true detective' magazines, which got pretty far 'out there' at times. It is clear 'Bernie' himself was obsessed with the subject of rape, and in fairly gaudy fashion to boot. The fantasy he leads off that article with, you may be sure, is his fantasy, and his practice --- masturbating while imagining a woman bound on her knees and abused. After which he proceeds to project this onto a fictional woman's mind, as her fantasy of gang-rape. He even projects his own fantasies out onto other men, imagining they mostly share his clear obsession with violent rape and sadistic bondage, else he would not claim such imaginings were common enough to be a staple of popular stag magazines. And that is without going into the age of his imagined victim....





"From Bernie’s perspective, dropping out of a race once you have no chance of winning is peculiar behavior that can only be explained by the work of a hidden hand. For most politicians, though, it is actually standard operating procedure. Only Sanders seems to think the normal thing to do once voters have made clear they don’t want to nominate you is to continue campaigning anyway."





"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed. When plans do not succeed, people become uneasy. When people are uneasy, punishments do not fit crimes. When punishments do not fit crimes, people cannot know where to put hand or foot."

Maybe she fell in love with a KGB agent who has compromising pics or video of her.

their core supporters' fundamental belief system, to create doubt and question loyalty to that public figure. Because Democrats take sexual abuse seriously, Biden's core supporters are particularly susceptible to such allegations. Trump's supporters would never respond to this, they'd just laugh it off and never give it another thought.

I had been friends with him for eight years but after he dug in on this I had enough and blocked him.

My spidey sense was going off about this that this is another Russian hit job.

I think the Bernie supporters pushing the story know this it's crap but that won't stop them from whining and complaining that the MSM is not highlighting the story. I think most Dems are at the point that we expected this type of bogus attack and refuse to let it influence their support of Biden.

I really don’t need that kind of mansplaining

Heck, even looney toons Larry Sinclair knew better than to be a-Putin fanboy.

Didn't realize it was still crippling on. Seem to recall it popping up in primary squabbles here in 2008, but I could be wrong....

I was thinking earlier that Pres Obama had never had someone come out of the woodwork to accuse.

There are a lot of left journos who have ruined their reputation this primary.

… So far, only Nina Turner of Bernie's big 3 has tweeted about it, but not on her main feed, only in Tweets and REplies and she passive-aggressively didn't make a statement, just threw some support Susan Sarandon's way.

How anyone can still support this campaign is beyond me. Tara Reade's story lacks so much credibility.

She has since deleted it:

President Putin scares the power elite in America because he is a compassionate, caring, visionary leader. President Putin has higher approval ratings in America then the American President. President Putin is beloved by Russia and he not going anywhere. Instead of being ensnared in the recent political intrigues (and America is trying hard to set that trap). President Putin is keeping a calm focus on his own country’s development and future, without America.

To President Putin, I say keep your eyes to the beautiful future and maybe, just maybe America will come to see Russia as I do, with eyes of love. To all my Russian friends, happy holiday and Happy New Year.

Reade's article is one of the best I've seen in helping to understand the alt-left's (Stein, Gabbard, Greenwald, etc) warped Putin apologism. Reade spells it out where they merely dog whistle:

ever believe that Biden assaulted a woman. I will not claim that he is the perfect candidate but he is a decent human being.

as in NOT at all.

Al Franken is known to be a touchy guy, there are families like that, very normal.

At no time did either Al or Joe assault anyone because if they did you would have, like RUMP, multiple reports of actual assault, LIKE RUMP.

Police officers laugh at the idea of a 'first offender' --- they believe this may be the first time someone is arrested, but that almost never is it the first time he or she broke the law, and far more often than not they are correct. Police know that people are creatures of habit, and behave consistently, doing again and again what they did before. It is unlikely a man would reach his late seventies without leaving a gaudy trail of such accusations clustered on his reputation, if this was the sort of thing he did. It's not the sort of thing a man does only once, especially a man in a position of some real power.

to what a person might expect.

It would be totally out of character.

Because she certainly has.

She stated Biden fired her after she accused him in 1993 and yet, years ago, said she left on her own due to wanting a career change and her fascination with Russia.

She stated in a recent interview that she thought of going public when Biden was selected in 2008 but decided against it yet her tweets from 2017, on her own private twitter account, seem to suggest she wanted Biden to run in 2016. Kinda weird that she's been this devastated by it all these years, wanted to come forward in 2008 but then openly praised and supported him in 2017, posting tweets about how he should have run.

But most damning, imo, is that she politicized her apparent rape, teasing in tweets back in early March that her accusation would help Bernie, who she now supports.

Seems fishy all around.

There's a credibility issue here.

accusation.

Liars act that way.
Tape does not produce amnesia.

"My old boss speaks the truth. Listen." ~ Tara Reade, referring to Joe Biden on Twitter.

The fact that Trump, Giuliani and Co. committed treason in order to unseat him as the Democratic front runner---and failed--means that Biden is now smear proof.

Reade somewhere along the line (perhaps due to online brainwashing) became steeped in alt-left ideology that is very pro-Putin and sees Dems as the root of all evil. IMO, it's similar to Roseanne Barr's transformation, from regular Dem to alt-left freak.

Reade's 'tic toc' tweets are revealing because it speaks to political calculation, and desire to prove herself to her alt-left comrades.
