    But he was just quoting someone so it’s OK.

    I won’t pretend to know the issues surrounding the nomination of an associate attorney general in 1985 (unlikely any here do as well). That said, I’m not sure how people expect him to deliver the argument he was trying to make. I mean, I’m sure people will parse this out, couple it with “racial jungle” and proclaim he enjoyed saying the N-word (the colloquialism itself of “N-word” not existing 35 years ago, by the way) but that’s about it.
    You sure about that?

    I know it was a thing pretty early in my childhood though I'm not exactly sure when it was popularized.

    I agree getting worked up about this is FS, especially since Biden has said actually offensive things.
    Not worked up about it at all. I just find it funny that all of the liberals desperately seeking video of Trump saying that same word have proof of Biden saying it in Senate chambers and on the record. Wasn’t there a $1 million reward for Trump saying that word?

    Biden doesn’t want his kids growing up in a “racial jungle” and casually uses the N-word on the record.

    Yet Trump is the racist.
    Gotta disagree with you here. If someone provided a clip of Trump reading a quote in which some other guy used the word, particularly where use of the word is entirely relevant to the context, I'd be on the front lines defending Trump on a WTF? basis.

    The question is whether the word is so vile now that it can't even be uttered (except by black rappers and athletes) in any context. My response to such an assertion is, sure.gif. We give words too much power sometims. Sometims we don't give them enough. Either way, ....

    I don't think that Biden is any kind of a saint, but this ain't the smokin' gun. You'd need Alex Jones vitamins to get you there. We? can do better on Biden. Like DNC says: he's done and said enough stupid shit that we? don't need to pull a muscle reaching on this one.
    The Bush/Romney approach on how to lose elections.

    The Left gets to attack GOP candidates and politicians relentlessly on made-up stories, yet the GOP is still supposed to play nice and be above the fray.

    Fuck that, I did that for the entire Bush administration. Biden says racist things, the n-word now being part of it. Kids get kicked out of school and ostracized for rapping songs with that word, yet Biden says it post-CRA and I’m supposed to not use it to slime him?

    I like winners, not nice losers.

    I understand your point and empathize. I hate the race baiting game myself and think we've all gotten too soft. But you just admitted what we all knew: that you don't even believe this is racist. You're basically saying you're going to start using bombs and killing civilians because the terrorists do it. That's fine, but you've given yourself away by (1) picking a really shitty "gotcha" and (2) basically explaining to me that it's a retaliatory and political maneuver.

    Even Racebannon trying to support this one came off as disingenuous. You and he may actually believe Biden is a racist. I'm not arguing that point. But I don't believe that you believe this is the proof. Sorry, like some old crotchety geezer once told me, I calls em like I sees em.

    It's not Biden's racism that matters to me. It's his patronizing view of how all blacks are the same but aren't black if they don't vote for him.

    Come to think of it, it's not even his patronizing - so common among the Dems - that bothers me the most. It's his being such an asshole that really bugs me.
    Yeah, I agree with that. I've shifted in my views on that point.

    If that exact video appeared today of Trump, there would be riots in the streets (again) and there would be a rationale Trump could offer that would excuse it. I’m past being nice to the mobs.

    I don't know. There are lots of videos of Trump saying lots of things. There's also an old video of him saying if he ever ran for office he'd run as a Republican because the base is stupid and he'd be able to sell them anything. Or words to that effect. Hasn't seemed to hurt his political strategy.
    Link please.



    I'll wait.

    The thing I have always loved most about @creepycoug , besides the fact that I have a thing for swarthy Cubans, is that he can take an L and not get all ass hurt about it. Digging in around the Tug is basically an Olympic sport now.

    Adult in the room. It doesn't hurt a man to be wrong about something. Only children and idiots think they're right about everything.

    Concur on all of the above. @creepycoug is one of my favorite classy poasters.
