[Mdhorn 5908]

Listened to Tara Reade say that Biden slid his hand up her dress and you get the idea.  She then files a complaint that doesn't use sexual assault or harassment but that he made her "uncomfortable".  I think this story has ballooned over the years and no longer fits her original filing if it exists.   That's some swift boating style allegations.  The Senate, DOJ, and POTUS don't even believe this if they went fishing in the Ukraine for charges against Biden.

Once best known for her role as high school sweetheart Vicky in American Pie, Reid is now better known for her bungled liposuction and breast implant procedure, which she received in 2004. Her bumpy breast scars, however, weren't as disconcerting as her spoiled belly: "I had body contouring, but it all went wrong," she said on The View. "My stomach became the most ripply, bulgy thing." Reid underwent reconstructive surgery in 2006, and posed for Playboy in 2009 to show off her fixed plastic surgery. Photos by Paul Smith/Featureflash (left) and FilmMagic (right).

"If a woman doesn't file a formal complaint about a powerful man in her organization who assaults her, it didn't happen." - Liberals in 2020

lol

Whether or not she filed a formal or detailed complaint at the time means absolutely nothing, and all of you know this.

- Multiple contemporaneous accounts of Reade telling her story, both on and off-the-record. (Including one woman who says, "Oh yeah she told me all that and I'm voting for Joe anyway."
- Mother calling into Larry King Live
- Contemperaneous evidence of Reade being stripped of responsibilities immediately after the alleged assault
- Zero evidence of any kind of benefit to Reade of coming out with the story now

But liberals tearing apart victims of sexual assault by powerful Democratic men isn't new. It was the entire 1990s and refreshed in 2016 when those same women dared show their poorly educated, low class faces again.

Her actions to me were consistent with somebody who had nothing to hide and nothing to gain from the situation. She knew full well that she was putting her life in danger and if she could be caught in a lie, she would be in trouble for lying under oath.

Interview with DemocracyNow

------------------------------------------------------------

AMY GOODMAN: Can you talk about why you decided to come forward? I understand you’re a Biden supporter, is that right?

LYNDA LACASSE: That is correct. I’m a strong, lifelong Democrat and I am a Biden supporter. I didn’t know about all that stuff that was going on in the news. She told me about it last month. She called me and she told me that she had decided to come forward with it and she told me about the allegations, and I said, “Oh, I remember that.” Then we talked again a little over a week ago and I volunteered to come forward. Again, I work so much, I hadn’t really had time to pay as much attention as I could have, but I did volunteer to come forward. And the reason I volunteered to come forward is I feel the truth needs to be told and her truth needs to be told. I believed her back then when she told me and I believe her now.

I'd guess the confusion comes from thinking that being critical of Democrats is the same as being pro-Republican. That kind of binary thinking is very dangerous.

I think Joe Biden is terrible.
I think Donald Trump is worse, but this is a Joe Biden thread so I talk about Joe Biden and not Donald Trump.

A lot of posters feel the need to talk about Donald Trump a lot in the Biden thread, I guess because they want to prove themselves socially? They want to reassure others that they're a Good Person even while doing something shameful like critically discussing Democrats?

I believe Tara Reade and Donald Trump has nothing to do with it.

My problem with the allegation against both Biden and Kavanaugh is that they happened so long ago there is no possible way we're going to "prove" it did or didn't happen.

27 years ago?  wtf.  There is no fucking way I can remember the details of every encounter I had in 1993 and if a girl/woman/female/womyn said I assaulted her that year, there's no way I'd be able to defend myself other than to say "it didn't happen" and "find witnesses who said it did."

This may make me a misogynist and unwoke and unsympthathetic to the #MeToo movement (which has now been weaponized), but these he said / she said allegations from 20+ years ago are ridiculous.  If we're talking about coming forward with allegations about child sexual abuse, that's a different story and there should be no statute of limitations on CSA.

But Tara Reade and Christy Blasy Ford were both adults at the time of the allegation and they should have went to the police at the time of the incident.  Sorry not sorry.  We live in a society where we would rather 10 guilty people go free than jail 1 innocent person and the burden of proof is always always always on the accuser/prosecution.

Pretty much this.  Sorry.  Hell, I don't even trust their own recall of 30 year old events.

Also, I am suspect of the role of therapy in some of these recalled events.  I am a big advocate of therapy, but reprocessing things later in life or with greater maturity and the insight of a counselor is for personal use only.

I definitely didn't vote for Joe in the primary, and it had nothing to do with a sexual assault allegation because I'm pretty sure I had never heard of Tara Reade or these allegations until the past few weeks, long after Super Tuesday.  I can count on my fingers the number of posters I can recall having Biden as a first choice.

I just think it's humorous that the playbook Trump supporters are choosing to go at Biden with is sexual harassment and nepotism, two sins that Trump is guilty of to a far greater degree many times over. 

Is Joe an old womanizer without personal boundaries who probably has sexually harassed someone at some point in his life?  Yeah, very likely.  Is he a serial rapist and accused child molester like our current president?  I doubt it.  In a perfect world, these wouldn't be our two choices, but it is what it is.  Anyone equating Biden's past to Trump's is lying to themselves.

Neither of those are actual statements from Reade; they are fabrications from you in an attempt to smear a woman who is claiming that she was raped by a powerful Senator.

You should read up on what she's actually said because you're either lying or ignorant and neither are good.

---------------------------------------
FORMER Senate aide Tara Reade said she was "too scared" to explicitly claim that Joe Biden sexually assaulted her 27 years ago in her Senate complaint.

Reade said Friday the limited report she filed with the congressional personnel office "didn't use sexual harassment" to describe her alleged assault.

"I remember talking about him wanting me to serve drinks because he liked my legs and thought I was pretty and it made me uncomfortable," she said in an interview with the Associated Press.

"I know that I was too scared to write about the sexual assault."

Reade said she detailed her issues with Biden but "the main word I used - and I know I didn't use sexual harassment - I used 'uncomfortable'. And I remember 'retaliation.'"

But the former aide suggested that even if the report surfaces, it wouldn't corroborate her assault accusation because she opted not to detail them at the time.
--------------------------------------------

So when you claim that she said she "never filed a report", were you making that up out of nothing or do you have a source for that?

Because it seems like you're actively lying about this for reasons I cannot even begin to understand.
