if that apology also mentioned that the records show that Biden didn't attend the event where he supposedly made the remarks. Around 10 tweets for the false story and only one for an apology without presenting the facts that refute the claim. That is irresponsible.

Oh yeah, and witch O'Donnell claimed she was right there when it happened.

8. She had a thread that started with the claim

that Biden harrassed a 14 year old girl. It was former Senate candidate Christie O'Donnell's niece. That niece claimed to have 6 witnesses. We were supposed to believe that Biden would first ask the girl how old she is (14 years) and then go on to say how well endowed her breasts are.
Half way through the thread, we finally learn the crucial information that Biden didn't even attend that event. That was proven by Biden's schedule at the time and the organization of the event. It was pure luck how easy that charge got exposed but the author got dragged for burying the lede so far in the thread instead of making that clear at the beginning.

Some saved her tweets but I couldn't find it right away.

Just going to add that Christine O'Donnell is a Republican and ran against Biden in 2008.

She ran against Senator Coons in 2010. She has run for office several times.

She is the candidate who had to come out and say "I am not a witch".

She is strongly supported by the Tea Party.

Accusations have been made that the way she makes her living by running for office. She takes the campaign donations for personal use.

I actually stopped watching Chris in 2014, same time I stopped watching Tweety.

Both were arrogant, focused on the wrong points and came to weird conclusions. Life is too short for weirdos.

2002. I get my impressions from DU.. people from whom I respect their opinions, And, I can well imagine just what you all are talking about.



There was a troll that got on here last night that said "Sasha was lying about Biden not being there". The troll had its "sources and Biden was there and it's not looking good for Biden".

I told the troll I didn't believe her and quit smearing Biden.. he's going to Win in November". Booom! I see "julialevine" is gone.
