So what Trump said was "And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything... Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything."No one was picturing that back then, but we are now! That's the Tara Reade allegation. We're not talking about a grabbing of the outer genitalia, but the penetration of the vagina using the hand — grabbing by the vagina — the seemingly ridiculous phrase used by Tapper.
And Jake Tapper obviously didn't want to say "pussy":
If you're going to use the anatomical term to avoid the slang, use the scientifically correct term. "Vagina" for "vulva" is as much slang as "pussy." "Pussy" is at least a quote. "Vagina" is ridiculous.
No one was picturing grabbing a woman by the vagina.
The old post ends:
If we were, those of us who are saying that Trump was referring to sexual assault would be saying rape, not merely sexual assault.The accusation against Biden is an accusation of rape.

1 – 200 of 243 Newer› Newest»Of course Trump was talking about it. Biden is accused of doing it.
At this point people are just being purposely obtuse.
Everyone knew that "grab them by the pussy and they just let you do it" was a way to describe gold diggers and fame whores.
And given Biden's multiple accusers and clear past of abusive behavior everyone knows he is a creep and a rapist.
Just like Bill Clinton.
Democrats harbor rapists and try to twist the pussy quote to mean something it obviously didn't.
Ann voted for Hillary Clinton knowing she enabled her rapist husband. Everyone who voted for Hillary Clinton knew democrats support and defend known rapists.
The entire feminist movement is a sham. It has been demonstrated over and over that almost all of it's adherents are completely unprincipled and don't have a shred of integrity.
The entire leftist political movement is a criminal enterprise bent on gaining power over other people and raping staffers whenever it gets the chance.
If they let you do it -- no matter what it is -- it's not rape. It's puzzling to me why so many people don't understand that distinction. Trump was saying (many) women welcome sexual advances from rich and powerful men. You can agree or disagree with that, but stating the opinion does not make a person a rapist.
i KNOW i'm four years late...
But WHY NOT SAY: "Grab them by their genitals"
???
It's an EXACT TRANSLATION
It's g-rated
It's got alliteration*
alliteration* alliteration is always awesome!

Whoa! Simmer down, mom. Kids in the audience.
"The accusation against Biden is an accusation of rape."
Technically, true. In a practical sense, though, bad, but not as bad as rape-rape?
In connection with the Hollywood Roman Polanksi kerfuffle, Didn't Special Prosecutor Whoopi Goldberg cogently explain the the distinction between rape-rape and something else?
"I know it wasn't rape-rape. It was something else but I don't believe it was rape-rape. He went to jail and and when they let him out he was like, 'You know what, this guy's going to give me a hundred years in jail. I'm not staying.' So that's why he left."
How about 2nd or 3rd degree rape for involuntarily finger-banging your Senate Staffer, without consent?
Jake gets his manhood coaching from Brian Stelter. Make of that what you will...
I read through the comments. Some of them are extremely funny. You can't say that Trump has elevated public discourse in America, but he has certainly made it risible......Context is king. In a dating situation hasn't everyone had their hand brushed away. I would think that the assault thing would be trying to overpower the woman and proceeding after she tried to push your hand away....I've never been rich and famous. Maybe their courtship rituals are different and they just head for the erogenous zones without the bother of going on a date. Their time is valuable, and they don't want to get bogged down in details.
Surely Ann you realize that it would have been physically unpossible to finger-rape Ms Reade without her cooperation. It's simple basic anatomy.
A Michigan legislator says so and we must believe all politicians.
Right?
John Henry
Yes! Let's NEVER forget, that Whoopi says that:
DRUGGING a 14 year old girl, into unconsciousness; and then forcefully having intercourse...
IS NOT "Rape-RAPE"
as far as Whoopi was concerned,
ALL date-rape was not "RAPE-RAPE"
ANY use of roofies, or ANY other 'date-rape' drug was not "RAPE-RAPE"
therefor, ANY use of Alcohol, or any other intoxicant was not "RAPE-RAPE"
ANY sex with under aged children was not "RAPE-RAPE"
ANY sex with ANY unconscious person was not "RAPE-RAPE"
Serious Question for Whoopi:
IF a Hollywood Producer, (named Harvey, maybe) tells a Young starlet that if she doesn't EAGERLY have sex with him; she will NEVER WORK IN HOLLYWOOD again...
IS THAT "RAPE-RAPE"?
I thought sneaky Joe only used his fingers to feel up the pretty small girls whose parents were too busy being sworn in to protect them from predators. That is he grabs them using the quid pro quo of a Government job.
"Vagina" for "vulva" is as much slang as "pussy." "Pussy" is at least a quote. "Vagina" is ridiculous.
"Now, come on. What do you say?"
"...Mulva. "
Except, again, Trump was not speaking necessarily about himself. He was making a larger point. Namely, that some/most women are so enamored with fame / power, they will let you do just about anything.
Like groupies chasing rock stars, they leverage the power of their pussies to get what they want, which can be many things: hero worship; to possess; to be possessed; money; fame; etc...
Now, it's possible that Trump has himself grabbed a few pussies in his day, but I'd wager that if he has, it was always consensual.
Some men are, by virtue of their fame, power or pure sexual magnetism, able to get pussy whenever they want. For them there is no need to "take it without asking", because they can access it "on tap", either via mutual attraction or a calculating exchange.
Other men, no matter their circumstances, have the opposite affect. They spend their days yearning for pussy they can never have. They are men who are reduced to "stealing" access by crossing personal boundaries without permission.
This can be surreptitious, like sniffing someone's hair from behind or going in for a hug and "accidentally" grabbing some side-boob. Or it can be more violent and overt, like shoving someone up against a wall and sticking your fingers in their vagina.
Trump strikes me as the former. Biden strikes me as the latter.
Whoopi Goldberg is given a prominent position as a thought leader by our society.
By the leftists in our society.
Disgusting people.
You know women are going to be raped because of your vote for any democrat politician.
If you vote for a democrat you support and glorify rape.
So, Biden was 51 years old in 1993, when he allegedly tried to go full vaj on the first encounter with Tara Reade.
A helpful hint to 51 year old men -- never go full vaj the first time. Too old and clumsy. First, try lunch with her at Bullfeathers in SE DC. Unless, of course, you're a star. Then, they let you do what you want. You can.....
And, Senator Grandpa Simpson from the great state of Delaware -- you ain't no star.
What's the over-under on when Slow Joe shifts gear to Plan B defense -- Well, Yeah, I went full vaj, but she let me! And then she said stop, so I stopped, Man! C'mon, Man! Maybe, I did misinterpret her signals ........
gilbar: "Yes! Let's NEVER forget, that Whoopi says that:
DRUGGING a 14 year old girl, into unconsciousness; and then forcefully having intercourse...

Oh no no no.
It was MUCH worse than that.
Polanski drugged the 14 year old and then orally and anally sodomized her.
And was found guilty of that crime.
And then the dems/left/LLR-left of Hollywood stood and gave that guy a standing ovation, live, before a global audience....and they've done that multiple times.
Then Hollywood A-listers got up and praised Harvey Weinstein and one called him a "god"....and gave him a standing ovation too......
Long time Massachusetts democrat Gerry Studds was reprimanded for seducing an underage male page while in Europe....and yet the entire democrat House caucus gave Studds a standing ovation when he retired.
Exit question: Anybody discerning a pattern here?
"...Mulva. "
Volvo.
Key phrase: "When you're a star they let you do it"
Let you. They do, don't they? As consenting adults, knowing the art of the deal?
jake tapper, who dated monica Lewinski, Shirley,
he was describing sop at the house that lauer built, how do I know this because billy bush didn't react in any particular way,
And Jake Tapper obviously didn't want to say "pussy":
Watch Tappers face.
His two-syllable pronunciation of "va-gina" gave Tapper the opportunity to inject that emoji-worthy unamused side-smirk of disgust for all the ladies out there.
The accusation against Biden is a media campaign, not a police criminal filing.
So, no, there is no accusation of rape here. Accusations of rape are made with filings of criminal charges to the police.
I’m not buying into your tactic here, prof.
And, I loathe Biden. I just watched “The Rules of Engagement,” a documentary on the ATF/FBI atrocity at Waco, and Biden is in it, lying his ass off to cover for the Fed raid.
Still won’t buy into your tactic here. Rape is a criminal charge. There is none against Biden.
This is the worst of the Marxist feminist tactics, these allegations of crimes without formal charges.
Private parts?
When did Biden's failed advance to Tara become rape? I must have missed that. Ann, is this a different case? The one in the news -- isn't that more a rejected effort at cuddling? It's terrible how women misunderstand men.
The accusation against Biden is an accusation of rape.
Sigh. And this from a professor of law.
The accusation against Biden is sexual assault by digital penetration.
Rape, by its technical and correct common law definition is penile-vaginal penetration, however slight.
I do know that redefinition of terms -- whether by legislation or otherwise -- is all the rage these days, but words really do matter.
I would have to go back to look at the old D.C. Code of the time -- or the federal code if it would have been prosecuted there because it happened on Capitol grounds -- but if Biden had been charged with "rape" at the time, I'm betting he would be acquitted because there is no evidence of penile penetration.
Don’t you folks see what Althouse is arguing for here?
She’s arguing for an extra-judicial system of judging men thru the media based on Marxist feminist ideology.
We have a criminal judicial system. No, we shouldn’t go around it to satisfy Althouse’s ideological demands.
she alleged a more intrusive contact, I don't like spelling these details out, but since the lawfare group went on a full court press,
"No one was picturing grabbing a woman by the vagina."
Ok now I'm picturing some kind of nightmare-speculum....
I have good sources who tell me that Tapper calls his pussy "Sally."
I’ve been watching men of every political stripe being played by feminists like Althouse for 50 years.
And, nobody seems to catch on to the con.
Once that chivalry kicks in over women, men devolve into hopeless idiots.
Which Athouse knows.
Thomas, we are thoroughly, totally feminized. American society has become the place shown on TV commercials, where women are smart and funny and men are dumb or stupid. And certainly not funny.
Everything is being seen through the eyes of a woman, and not even an average woman. Whichever extreme version of the female gets the most attention. The rest of us, male and female alike, are hostage to an endless series of neuroses playing at law, custom and etiquette.
because they can access it "on tap"
I find this “pussy on tap” idea very intriguing.
All the correct ppl upstream making the point that "grab them by the pussy" was a comment about fame-chasing women and how far they'll go to land a catch. Is everyone dense or just corrupt?
This was never about rape. It's about women, sad, horribly sad women who sell themselves either literally or figuratively. Trump's no hero to take advantage of this, but he ain't a rapist, either.
I seduce women by fondling their muffins, that and I can slow dance well.
All this talk about female anatomy by a classy lady such as Ann Althouse is offensive to a gentleman such as myself.
Nevertheless, it raises an issue of considerable importance and rather than rudely inquire directly as to the details I propose a poll:
The Althousian cooch is:
1. Waxed.
2. Shaved.
3. Scaped.
4. Wooly Bully.
My vote is 4.

Firestone Brewing makes a seasonal beer called "Velvet Merkin." It ain't pussy, but it's close to it.
"Grab them by their genitals"
It's Inclusive of the Diverse, at least for those who aren't Diverse enough to have had their genitals removed and replaced by simulacra; in that case use "nether regions" since everyone has those regions.
Even if there’s some verification that Reade actually made the accusation 27 years ago, that wouldn’t prove its veracity. I believe it probably happened, that Biden is probably guilty, and I don’t care. After all this time, there’s no way to prove it, and no way for him to defend himself.
It’s even possible that it happened and it wasn’t a crime. Maybe she brought the gym bag to him in hopes that he’d penetrate her. Can a 29-year-old woman consent, verbally or non-verbally, to such a thing?
Ladies, you need some mansplaining, so here it is: If you’re the victim of a crime, whether or not your mother calls Larry King, report it 911 or it didn’t happen.
Men, it’s an illusion that only bad guys run afoul of Althouse’s revolutionary Marxist feminist extra-judicial legal system.
There’s a damned good chance that one day you’ll be cast as the bad guy.
What's New, Vulva-cats?
maybe we're just splitting hairs here. BUT-- if specificity
is the order of the day, as Democrat Richard Komi would like,
to be clear, we're talking about the female vagina in this case?
There is really only one question remaining to be answered here judging by the dems/LLR-lefties performance over the past 5 years:
Just how did Putin get Biden to sexually assault this gal in 1993?
In Tapper's defense, he has no experience with pussy.
Firestone Brewing makes a seasonal beer called "Velvet Merkin." It ain't pussy, but it's close to it.
Case on order before the day is done... thx!
Being married and sexually faithful to my wife my whole adult life (32 years to Mrs Perspective), sex can still be filled with misunderstanding and emotional landmines. I can only guess how complicated it is outside of marriage.
The women I know have a mean streak in them. Women are armed with nails, teeth, and hands to grab and tear out hair and genitals. Unless a woman is in fear of her life to fight back (having a gun to her head), why would they go along with a jackass like Biden molesting them? Women can also have a terrifying emotional rage when crossed. I don't know what to make of these women who show up years later like they were lambs to slaughter.
I'm guessing the best we can do is pity them, recognize them as weak and feel sorry for them. Perhaps Rachel Mitchell's questioning of Christine Blasey Ford is the best we can do for these pitiful victims.
"Trump's approval rating hits all-time high, support from independents surges to best-ever figure"

The accusation against Biden is an accusation of rape.
A rape that deserves the same condemnation as a real rape, as you can tell because I'm using the same word. It tricks only women.
If this shit with the economy ruined can't sink Trump then the Trump phenomenon is simply a case of divine intervention, which makes perfect sense to me, and I'm not even religious.
Whoopi Goldberg famously and idiotically opined, ""I know it wasn't rape-rape. It was something else but I don't believe it was rape-rape."
Never understood how a woman could possibly have said what Whoopi said. It's a grim and gross choice but being raped anally would way worse than being raped vaginally. So what Polanski did to that child was not only "rape-rape," but it was rape-rape with aggravating circumstances.
Gov Whitmer:

Maybe one positive thing can come out of this series of too late reporting of sexual assaults -- people might see the value of reporting the assualt/rape at the time. Don't worry about the justice system and if the perp is ever punished or the punishment is inadequate. The crime has to go on the record.
Men get raped too, especially young boys. Probably there's even more stigma about a man being raped by a man which is why we don't hear about it; not because an injury to an anus is just like a scraped knee or elbow.
This feminine modesty stuff is a way of saying that women are not only physically weak, but also mentally weak.
Being fingered is worse than a mugging, is the assertion. Why?
I haven't kissed my boss ass and have willingly paid the price, but not the price I care about. Can't women handle that?
Rape, by its technical and correct common law definition is penile-vaginal penetration, however slight.}}}
Not anymore. Most or all states have amended their rape statutes to include penetration by finger or object.
Women's mental weakness is why the dems pander to women.

"Absolute intolerance. There are those in Congress who know more about what secrets have been hidden and therefore where an absolute-intolerance policy may lead. "
Well, YES. But those idiots decided they might be able to manipulate a news cycle and get a Senate seat in Alabama, so they had to be secular Puritans. Now, of course, they're pinballing back to "gosh, isn't Joe Biden just a lovable scamp when he gropes those children."
One thing I realize is that Democrats have daughters too. Between Biden and Epstein, they now know their parents would probably pimp them out if it could get the party a couple of extra points in a swing state. Hell, that's probably happened. No wonder their children grow up into bitter and suspicious feminist cat ladies. I mean, would you trust a male feminist in that kind of environment? Not just no, but fuck no.

Republican male cowardice is why Republicans pander to cucks.
Is it rape if the women is ambivalent about it, or for it and changes her mind later?
You don't know the accusation is of rape until you know that. A contemporaneous police report would help. Complaining to friends doesn't count - it's humble bragging. I'm so hot that Biden hit on me.
Howard: "Republican male cowardice is why Republicans pander to cucks."
Projection at this very moment is quite the tell.
I'm very sure that grab them by the pussy was a last-second swerve from grab them by the tits, to make it sound like another base can be stolen if you're famous.
I find this “pussy on tap” idea very intriguing.

Thats okay.
A big lefty Hollywood type drugging and then orally and anally sodomizing a 14 year old is what the dems/LLR-left call a typical day at the office and Standing Ovation worthy.
"Unless a woman is in fear of her life to fight back (having a gun to her head), why would they go along with a jackass like Biden molesting them? "
I've been sexually molested both as a child and as an adult. Fortunately the encounters were brief and I'm not traumatized as a result. My reaction, as is pretty common, was to freeze. I don't think the "freeze" reaction is limited to women either. FWIW, I don't think old allegations of such matters can be fairly considered unless 1) the alleged conduct is serious, and 2) there is tangible evidence available today.

Bullshit, Mark. Penile insertion is not required
“The penetration, no matter how slight, of the vagina or anus with any body part or object, or oral penetration by a sex organ of another person, without the consent of the victim.
https://www.justice.gov/archives/opa/blog/updated-definition-rape
I cited this the other dsy in another comment thread.
From 10 USC section 920 article 120:
(a)Rape.—Any person subject to this chapter who commits a sexual act upon another person by—
(snip)
CFR defines "sexual act" as:
sexual act(1) Sexual act .— The term “sexual act” means— (A) the penetration, however slight, of the penis into the vulva or anus or mouth; (B) contact between the mouth and the penis, vulva, scrotum, or anus; or (C) the penetration, however slight, of the vulva or penis or anus of another by any part of the body or any object, with an intent to abuse, humiliate, harass, or degrade any person or to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of any person.
Perhaps you can cite some different law?
John Henry
The rhetorical use of rape counts on its connotation of penis-in-vagina. The rhetorical use says that other things are the same as this and deserve the same outrage.
That can't be supported or the trick wouldn't be necessary. Just call them all assault and forget it.
The point of rape as a crime was in part identifying whose kid somebody will be raising. That requires a penis.
It has a feminine modesty component that ought to be outdated these days.

Shouting Thomas said...The accusation against Biden is a media campaign, not a police criminal filing.
Yes. We need to keep that in mind.
It may become a court case if Biden says something that Reade can sue him for. Otherwise, it is just talk and speculation.
The media is being dragged into covering this issue and will eventually create a Hillary-style exoneration for Sleepy Joe.
Like Ted Kennedy and Bob Packwood before him, the point of Joe Biden’s treatment of women is not personal sexual gratification, but to demonstrate how powerful he is (probably to himself as much as to people around him). It’s a case of “I can do anything I want to anyone and no one can touch me!” He can can grope female Senate staffers and no one will reprimand him. He can get handsy with wives in front of their husbands. He can even get handsy with adolescent girls in front of both parents and no one says a thing.
But that was then; this is now.

* I deliberately left out Bill Clinton, because I think that there really was a sexual component to his escapades, besides the “look how powerful I am!”
"I don't think the 'freeze' reaction is limited to women either."
Of course it is not. Some of things I never talk about in detail are the times I froze: in a football game, in the military, in a business meeting, in a financial crisis (about 12 years ago).
The first three were brief. The fourth I was "frozen" for a couple of months. I don't talk about it in detail because I feel shame for my own actions.
If someone like John Lennon, for example, had said, "When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ’em by the pussy. You can do anything." it would have been treated as wise and insightful. If he had put it to music, we'd all be singing it decades later.
By the way, OT, but too good to save for a later cafe:
Here's Andrew McCarthy in NT, connecting the dots, refuting commentators who saw no link between Flynn and the Russia collusion hoax:
"The FBI Set Flynn Up to Preserve the Trump–Russia Probe . . . Perjury trap was not score-settling. To investigate the president, it was a practical necessity to sideline his chosen national-security adviser. Michael Flynn was not the objective. He was the obstacle."
Trump said they let you. That’s a lot different from pushing a girl up against a wall and holding her like a bowling ball.
Democratic New Hampshire State Rep. Richard Komi resigned this weekend after making a “hurtful” tweet claiming women couldn’t be sexually assaulted unless there is “some cooperation from the female herself.”
Following news of Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegation against presumptive 2020 Democratic nominee and former Vice President Joe Biden, Komi tweeted, “Judging by the position of the female vagina, it will not be easy for anyone to just put their finger into the vagina unless their is some Cooperation from the female herself. That is why I believe Tara Reade’s allegations is false. She is looking for attention.”

The media is being dragged into covering this issue and will eventually create a Hillary-style exoneration for Sleepy Joe.
That is wishful thinking on my part. I want Joe to be the Democrat nominee.
Another perspective is that the media and the DNC are trying to figure out the pros and cons of forcing Joe out of the race. The main issue is how to put someone other than Bernie on the ballot. Bloomberg anyone?
We will find out in the next week or so what they have decided. A lot depends on the actions of Dem party feminists.
If Joe is forced out, it will of course be because Republicans pounced on the Tara Reade accusation.
I do have to give Tapper a little credit. Maybe he was uncomfortable because he foresaw the the direction this discussion would take.
Democratic New Hampshire State Rep. Richard Komi resigned this weekend after making a “hurtful” tweet claiming women couldn’t be sexually assaulted unless there is “some cooperation from the female herself.”
We have "suicide by cop." Now we have "career suicide by tweet." Have to wonder if there isn't some unconscious death wish involved.

Exactly. Bloomberg has a huge China problem, though. Biden has one too, of course, but China is going to be a big part of the campaign unless the virus kills everybody.

Althouse: “The accusation against Biden is an accusation of rape.” In most jurisdictions “sexual assault” includes non consensual digital penetration of a vagina.
Limited blogger said... “Of course Trump was talking about it. Biden is accused of doing it.”
Kinda like the Ukraine deal. Trump talks. Biden does. Trump is guilty. Biden is immune. /s
But maybe not this time. This will be a handy way to get rid of Crazy Joe without anyone having to admit that Democrat voters are so stupid that they nominated an obviously demented guy.
Tapper was reaching for a word. But somehow he just couldn't put his finger on or in it.
Biden's presidency was always going to be a committee thing anyway--Joe's not sharp enough anymore (if he ever was) to run things. But now the committee is fitting Joe's candidacy with some cement shoes. It may well sleep with the fishes and a new Democrat Candidate Savior arise from the waves! Hillary anyone? Mooch--no she doesn't want it. Andrew Cuomo---he won't play in Peoria or anywhere west of the Hudson save maybe California. Newsom? He's got his troubles. This is the legacy of the Obama administration which didn't give a dang for anybody below Obama--and was willing to accept a gaffetastic clown as VP. The Dim bench is empty.
“ The accusation against Biden is an accusation of rape.“
Not in California.
I have questioned why so many women of this day and age refer to the vulva as vagina, or va ja ja. Sex education has been around a long, long time now. Have the definitions of female anatomy changed? I think not. Tapper may have fallen prey to current usage that is not factual.
People use vagina because it's analogous to penis. Vulva is more of a medical term for the general area. Indeed what's included and what isn't depends on what turns men on, which depends on the man.
There was a SI swimsuit issue that was banned from display owing to showing that Derb called the foothills of the mons veneris. Vulva or not? nobody knows. There's no conventional use for the term to straighten it out.
Who wants to argue Hillary ought be considered innocent of any and all crimes because she hasn't been charged much less convicted of a crime*? Fuck off.
Althouse would have run rings around you at UM Law if you could have gained entrance circa her time there.
That is as smart as the great Tom Coburn RIP saying about Nancy Pelosi "... she's a nice lady. Have you met her?" as if nobody could consider Hitler not nice unless you met him personally.

Hillary Clinton has a unique distinction: She has been exonerated twice after extensive federal investigations, the latest entirely unjustified and the result of a politicized Justice Department.
Are you sure about that, Bob Smith?
Penal Code - PEN
PART 1. OF CRIMES AND PUNISHMENTS [25 - 680.4] ( Part 1 enacted 1872. )
TITLE 9.
(Snip)
CHAPTER 1. Rape, Abduction, Carnal Abuse of Children, and Seduction [261 - 269] ( Chapter 1 enacted 1872. )
263.
The essential guilt of rape consists in the outrage to the person and feelings of the victim of the rape. Any sexual penetration, however slight, is sufficient to complete the crime.
I would bet that sexual penetration with a finger would fall under the "Any sexual penetration" section.
John Henry
I have questioned why so many women of this day and age refer to the vulva as vagina, or va ja ja.
An old ICU nurse joke. "What is the difference between the uvula and the vulva ?"
One is Ah and the other is Ahhhhh !
Old rh"gandolph"h is too emotionally invested for some reason about why rape used to mean something else (more specific as it were) to consider why today with all the numerous proud victims running around terms relating to the victimhood change as they and it become more frequent.
Will you be arguing lol means lots of love? Why no passion about that change in a term or a phrases meaning?
Languages nearly universally change if used by an active population. Maybe have fun with it by driving misanthropes like our buddy jbeano crazy instead of tryng to drain the ocean?
“ The accusation against Biden is an accusation of rape.“
Not in California.
What does California have to do with it? The alleged sexual assault, that "[Biden's] hands went underneath [Reade's] clothing and [Biden] was touching [Reade] in [her] private areas and without [her] consent" occurred in Washington, D.C., not California.
"263. The essential guilt of rape consists in the outrage to the person and feelings of the victim of the rape. Any sexual penetration, however slight, is sufficient to complete the crime."
I would bet that sexual penetration with a finger would fall under the "Any sexual penetration" section.
You left out something:
"264. (a) Rape, as defined in Section 261 or 262 [NOT 263], is punishable by imprisonment in the state prison for three, six, or eight years."
261 and 262 define rape: "Rape is an act of sexual intercourse accomplished with a person not the spouse of the perpetrator, under any of the following circumstances:"
Section 263 is about not rape rape.
Perhaps you can cite some different law?
John Henry
Yeah, John Henry. The common law. Which I said.
And no need for the profanity.
All you folks citing statutory codes or saying that men can be raped need to go back and look at what I said.
Rape at COMMON LAW is vaginal penetration however slight by a penis with no emission required.
Common Law.
Look it up.
The alleged sexual assault... occurred in Washington, D.C., not California.
It's also not rape in DC, because they stopped using that word in 1995; now it's called "sexual abuse".
Joe Biden is a moral leper. I wonder if he has any illegitimate children?
Something about Hunter does seem somewhat less than legitimate.
As far as the relevant statutory law in the D.C. Code, two years after the alleged incident, the D.C. Council repealed its rape statute, such that there is no longer the crime of "rape" in the District.
Instead, there is the crime of "sexual abuse" of varying degrees, generally involving engaging in or causing another person to engage in or submit to a "sexual act" in certain ways (D.C. Code § 22-3002 et seq.).
Pursuant to D.C. Code § 22-3001(8),
“'Sexual act' means:
"(A) The penetration, however slight, of the anus or vulva of another by a penis;
"(B) Contact between the mouth and the penis, the mouth and the vulva, or the mouth and the anus; or
"(C) The penetration, however slight, of the anus or vulva by a hand or finger or by any object, with an intent to abuse, humiliate, harass, degrade, or arouse or gratify the sexual desire of any person.
"(D) The emission of semen is not required for the purposes of subparagraphs (A)-(C) of this paragraph."
Section 22-3001(8)(A) combines the prior definitions of rape and sodomy.
Back in the 90s-- and earlier-- if an attractive, young career woman reported every time a male co-worker or superior made an unwanted physical advance, or said something crude, she would've been branded a trouble-maker and probably reassigned or fired. Just because a woman didn't report a sexually aggressive guy, didn't mean she enjoyed the "attention". Only a short-sighted, insensitive asshole would conclude that. Short of actual rape, we often just rebuffed or ignored and then shrugged it off and tried to keep doing our jobs, and avoided the creepiest guys as best we could.
As I've said before, one of the perks of getting old is that the aggressive guys leave you alone. It's not an ego boost to have some pervert grab your ass or tits or whatever. It's annoying and sometimes scary. Especially when you're 5 ft 2 and 100 lbs.
I think Biden probably groped the woman-- probably more than one woman, since he seems pretty handsy. That said, call me cynical, but I agree with those who think that waiting 30 years to report it seems to be more politically motivated than anything else. They say Tara is a Democrat, but I can see how some Democrats would want to get rid of sleepy, gropey, funny-uncle Joe as the Dem Presidential nominee.
"And no need for the profanity." The $#%@ their ain't, @$$%#@&.
This feminine modesty stuff is a way of saying that women are not only physically weak, but also mentally weak.
This needs to be said: Please shut the fuck up.
Say you're out riding your bike, and a man twice your size overpowers you, rhhardin, pushes you down, rubs his erection against you, slides his hands up your shorts and shoves his fingers up your ass. Would you fight back and risk serious physical harm; remember the guy is twice your size? Afterwards do you just get back on your bike and ride off like it was no big deal? No lingering fear that he or someone else will do it to you again? Would you report it to the police if you had no way to prove it even happened?
This sort of thing happens to women, children, and young men more often that we want to believe. If it's never happened to you, please, just shut the fuck up.
If it's a frame job, getting Biden credibly accused of sexual assault/rape says it was better executed than the Kavanaugh shenanigans.
I don't get all the back and forth about the legal definition of rape. If Biden did what Reade says he did, Biden acted in a horrible and unforgivable way, and in a way that should disqualify him from high office.
The most serious accusation against Trump is that by E. Jean Carroll who says he actually raped her in a department store dressing room. If Trump did what Carroll says he did, Trump acted in a horrible and unforgiveable way, and in a way that should disqualify him from high office.
Why hasn't the press more fully investigated the E. Jean Carroll accusations? Where is the NYT WaPo series of stories? If the stories are there, and I haven't seen them, send me links. BUt I think the news judgment has been that E. Jean Carroll is a flake and there's not enough supporting corroborative evidence to pursue the accusation. For all intents and purposes, that judgment is the same as saying "it didn't happen."
Or maybe, the timing isn't right, and NYT WaPo are holding off for an October surprise. I realize how much I have lost respect for these newspapers, and I realize that it is a loss to me. I do read real clear politics which I think tries to put a more even handed presentation; but it is exhausting to always have to filter the news through the "what is their hidden agenda?" filter.

Yeah, John Henry. The common law. Which I said.
Yes, you did say that. So what?
When there is a specific law, such as the federal law I cited, it trumps common (unwritten, traditional) law.
So I don't think you have cited any "law", just tradition.
Can you cite a law? Giving a statute number as I did?

John Henry
Why are women so fascinated with sexually explicit books about submission? Shades of Grey and its sequels, Ann Rice's Beauty Trilogy, Pauline Reage's Story of O series.
And the whole class of romance novels commonly called "bodice rippers" Doesn't the term "bodice ripping" imply forcible, non-consensual, sex? There are thousands of these books published every year. More than 7,000 in 2008.
Not many men buy them. The audience is women.
Why do so many women have such violent submissive fantasies?
John Henry
BUMBLE BEE, yes, but it's Lennon that people treat like some kind of sage. There's some kind of weird, mystical veneration thing going with him. (Celebrities singing "Imagine".)
The Stones weren't the only band to sing about women who are attracted to fame/money/glamor. My point was that if Lennon had said what Trump did, it would have been considered deep instead of crass.
and this komi character is very well connected, appears with Clinton Obama jesse Jackson, who may have been unclear on ground rules,
they've tried every gambit before, rape, mass willful negligence, et al,
Pelosi has through the stimulus bill expanded a moderate flu outbreak into an pandemic, largely focused on the east and west coasts, and certain burgs in the Midwest,
Women are certainly ready to mob. The dems picked that one right. Go for the weak minded provided there are numbers in it, for their votes.
If we were really concerned about the legal definition we would check the law as it was in 1993. But is anybody really going to say, if the report turns up and proves he did it, that he gets a pass because it was a different crime back then?
"Being married and sexually faithful to my wife my whole adult life (32 years...)"
We notice you, Mr. Limited Perspective, said "sexually" faithful.
Thus, you admit to the one or several episodes of emotional faithlessness, yes?
The Committee for Public Safety will be in contact with you shortly. We recommend loose collars.
Biden's problem is that he's deep state, not that he's handsy or senile.
Think structure, ladies, not forces.
So Tara Reide is going for the weak-minded mob, and here they are.
"The latest Gallup survey shows Trump's approval rating surged 6% despite coronavirus crisis."
They found Fox Butterfield somewhere?
Scott Adams wants $7 a month to see his stuff at locals.com
If you go through the opening an account you find that at the end.
I'm not sure he's properly evaluating his appeal, with his long and uncorrected nerd obsessions.
I was hoping for an alternative to periscope that had audio that worked. His Trump analysis is good. A co-appreciator.
"This needs to be said: Please shut the fuck up." --Night Owl
Classic. QED
I second what several commenters have said: Either report the incident at the time or it didn’t happen. (If you have evidence that the Mob kidnapped your children and threatened to kill them if you talked, I'd consider an exception to the rule.)
I have more than enough reasons not to vote for Biden for President. I don't need to worry about a stale allegation of sexual assault (or whatever they call finger-f*cking these days).
Achilles,
Please get help before you harm yourself or others.
The key is that he said they let them.
Consent from adults.
No problem.
Mary Beth said, "...if Lennon had said what Trump did, it would have been considered deep instead of crass."
I recall Lennon and McCartney, separately, expressing astonishment and amusement anyone found their music "deep". They were just having fun.
so everything is up for grabs
There was a SI swimsuit issue that was banned from display owing to showing that Derb called the foothills of the mons veneris. Vulva or not? nobody knows.
I always thought of it as the lush, rolling foothills leading to the gates of shaky puddin' paradise.

Limbaugh always substitutes vagina for pussy, in pussy hats.
Limbaugh has trouble with women's genitals in the first place. A listener sent him some vagina cookies, and his staff told Limbaugh that he was holding them upside down.
phallic...or phalangic?
Phalanges (Distal) – The bones of the fingers.
Each finger has three phalanges, except for the thumb, which has two.
At least he didnt penetrate her with his toes.
Feets dont phallus now!!
If there is a statute of limitations, then presumably it represents a standard of [social] consensus. If there isn't, and there is probable cause, then investigate the allegation. That said, Biden is Pro-Choice, a "burden" to the Party, not a viable candidate for her prospective future. Hoisted by his own religious/ethical code.
It's not a matter of believing women, but of taking everything as how she sees it.
The threat otherwise is nagging.
The two most powerful words in the English language: Yes, Dear.
But in the hookup era, there's no particular man required to say that, so every man is required to say it.
The threat is nagging. By a mob.
I thought being a Democrat meant never having to say you're sorry. Just "Put some ice on that - I'm pro-choice">
Elsewhere in the fight for equal rights, U.S. District Court Judge Gary Klausner dismissed unequal pay claim by U.S. women's soccer players because the female athletes were paid more.
Women live in a world of hostile forces everywhere. You have to believe them.
Vaginas do not have an up or down side. Same with pussy. They're like Oreo cookies.
Biden in 2018 says he would've "beaten the hell out of pussy grabers"
Bidden added that anyone who spoke like Trump did on the infamous Access Hollywood tape, which the president later dismissed as "locker room talk," would be considered the "fattest, ugliest S.O.B. in the room," ABC News reported.
"A guy who ended up becoming our national leader said, 'I can grab a woman anywhere and she likes it,'" Biden said. "They asked me if I'd like to debate this gentleman, and I said 'no.' I said, 'If we were in high school, I'd take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him.'"
How do we know the pussy did not attack Biden? I see the whole story as kind of like a lion tamer and a lion. Biden was the tamer, and it's dangerous business
ok, we were wrong. On 2 accounts
1) "Itchy-goo Park" wasnt a eu-fem-ism for vaj
2) the correct name is Itchycoo Park
we apologize for any misunderstanding
It used to be that women had the bluebird and lilies delusion (Thurber: Is Sex Necessary?).
Since putting condoms on cucumbers in school, it's the hostile forces delusion.

I can understand women being upset/shocked given that they've rarely been privy to conversations between men, especially conversations between young men and male teenagers but Biden knows better and was just shooting bull. The infamous Access Hollywood tape was thought to be a private conversation by the two men.

"Blogger rhhardin said...
Think structure, ladies, not forces."
Structure is a closed set of n tuples, Force is that which proportionally accelerates bodies assuming fixed mass. Therefore Ladies are interested in acceleration instead of distance.
To the Un-Woke here:
a) not all women have vaginas
b) please use the term "front-hole"
Rhetorically, forces break structures, structures resist force.
Like it's a structure if you have a system that works even when run by bad people. The structure resists the forces of evil.
Due process, for instance, resists mob action no matter how much women are whipped up into dark force hysteria.
"Thus, you admit to the one or several episodes of emotional faithlessness, yes?"
Absolutely. How can someone look at the lovely profile of Ms Althouse and not feel a cosmic connection to her beauty? That's the one. The several I'll keep to myself.
"b) please use the term "front-hole""
I think that sounds so awful.
I must repeat the golf joke:
A lady walked into the pro shop and accosted the pro, "I was stung by a bee on your course!"
"Well, where were you stung?"
"I was stung somewhere between the First and Second Hole!"
"Well... Lady, the problem is, your stance is too wide."
Vaginas do not have an up or down side.
As Chief Brody said in Jaws, 'It's only an island if you look at it from the water'.
rhardin must be one pussy-whipped S.O.B.
Rhardin, I am sorry even my teacher in Phil 005 told me to stop taking Phil classes.
Columbo with Bill Shatner doing Rush! Don't miss it, just got started on Cozi.
"Due process, for instance, resists mob action no matter how much women are whipped up into dark force hysteria."
But due process did not resist successfully against the Day Care Devil Worshipers who were convicted of transporting kids to satanic rituals implausibly. Resistance is futile, until the women realize they are being stupid.
Interesting seeing all these men here speculating that if a woman doesn't call the police after an instance of assault, "it didn't happen." And that women must be weak-minded because...I am not sure of the reasoning here...because we fear being attacked by an adult far larger and stronger than we?
I think this sort of nonsense can only be spouted by people who have never been accosted by someone larger and/or more powerful than they--and who don't have any reason to fear that it could happen to them.
Sure, if a stranger walking down a corridor pushed me into a cranny and shoved his fingers inside me, I would call the police. Most particularly because I would figure he would do something worse to the next woman he attacked.
However...if a powerful man with significant leverage over me (he employs me; he can tank my future prospects; he can ruin my reputation because in a he said/she said, his status will trump mine) assaults me, I will probably swallow and take it. Especially if I am young and inexperienced and not to the point where I am willing to say, "Fuck this; I can do something better with my life.".
I have had men say inappropriate things to me in a work situation. I feel irritated, but I don't feel afraid. I have had a couple of men (one in a work situation and one not) overpower me physically. It is frightening. I don't think of myself as physically weak, but at in those moments, I was helpless. It is easy to say, "Use your nails; use your teeth," if you have never had a hand the size of your face grasping you by the neck. And if you have never had a body that weights 100 lbs more than you do holding you down.
I have no idea whether Joe Biden assaulted Tara Reade. But I don't find her behavior at all surprising.
And the issue here is NOT (only) whether Joe Biden is a sexual predator. It is whether (or also) whether the Democrats are going to be made to play by the rules they insist on when a Republican is involved.
Yes, but the dingo did eat that lady's baby.
In short, with Biden, you might get something for it.
Shatner was in the Limbaugh letter maybe? I remember Limbaugh and Shatner talking, maybe it was filmed? Don't care to verify, but am tickled pink Bill is acting the greedy talk show host with no morals fooling the rubes. I assume anyway 15 minutes in.
"Fielding Chase."
I'd guess, but I'm sure I'm right, "Don't, Joe" would have worked fine for the lady. And she knew it.
bagoh 5:32-
yikes! the creepy duo. tho - Biden is decidedly less creepy.
rhhardin,
You're sure you're right? Why would "Don't, Joe" work on a man who pushes a woman up against a wall and sticks his fingers inside ofher?
"Please don't" works when a man touches your arm or your cheek. It doesn't work on a man who thinks he is entitled to stick his hand under your skirt. Or do you think that "Bill, please stop" would have worked for Juanita Broderick?
Perhaps because such a remonstrance would work with you, you make the mistake of thinking it will work with every other man.
The 70s and 80s on the Hill were another country. Powerful men got away with a lot of shit that probably wouldn't fly now. Chris Dodd and Teddy Kennedy publicly sandwiching a waitress--and not a cry of outrage--is a perfect example.
Some men are beasts. Some aren't. Some women lie. Some don't. I find this reflexive insistence on the part of most of you men here that things like this don't happen to be laughably and pathetically naive.
@Anne-I-am nails it above. It's hard for some of the naive utopian theoreticians to join us in the real world, where real things happen, including bad things, which sometimes lead to mistakes of judgment.
In 1993, I bet many more powerful Senators were handsy with the gals, most of whom didn't report it to anyone.
In 2020, I bet the number of handsy Senators is less, and, when it does happen, women are more inclined to report it.
Here, the solution is simple. Respectful tv interview of Tara Reade, let's hear what she has to say. Her podcast interview was a good start, but only half of what you need. Ya gotta look 'em in the eye and watch their body language to see if their story coheres with the truth.
Blasey Ford was a coached liar.
"I thought you liked me" is so perfectly Joe Biden it has to be true :)
Bill Clinton's sexual deviancy never stopped Hillary from shoving herself down our throats.
Bill Clinton had his highest ratings during the impeachment debacle. Close to 70% approval. Unprecedented during peacetime in the modern era. Do the math 90% of men wanted to have a Lewinski and half of women wanted to be Lewinski.
"b) please use the term "front-hole""
I think that sounds so awful.
Front-hole, back-hole, top-hole... a colorful clump of cells. This is the age of social progress.

" Do the math 90% of men wanted to have a Lewinski and half of women wanted to be Lewinski."
Considering the two people involved there, I find that hard to understand. Neither was physically attractive, and the act itself was pathetic on a number of levels. I think the episode just fed into the zeitgeist of the 90's that Republicans were too moralistic, and at the time that was very unpopular. People were naive about the Clintons then, and felt sorry for them.
If you call someone a backhole, does that get past the censors?
I find this reflexive insistence on the part of most of you men here that things like this don't happen to be laughably and pathetically naive.
In this case, it's not likely as claimed. She's getting something out of it.
If it nevertheless happens, it's like being mugged. You report it to the police.
There's nothing special about vaginas except that women are suckers for it in the news.
Things nobody could think just yesterday:
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm
The CDC dropped the number of Winnie Xi Flu deaths down to 37,000.
And the death rate is below normal by 3% so far.
So tell me more about how the country's economy had to be destroyed.
You should never say the word "pussy" without an adjective. Absent the adjective, you are being vulgar, and nobody should ever be vulgar, we are all children of God,
SImilarly, you should never call a man a "loser" unless you are willing to say it to his face.
"Losers disgust me, and Botox Joe does not disgust me, but he makes me feel sorry for him" ---- that is ok.
"Joe BIden is the sort of loser who would do such a thing" ---- not ok.
By the way, I am not a big fan of Trump as a human being either. He sucked up to Howard Stern back in the day, and in my book that makes him a loser.
Wait - let me rephrase that .....
I was 14 when a man assaulted me in the subway while I was coming home from school. He cornered me on a bench and stuck his hand in my crotch. Luckily I was wearing jeans so he couldn't get very far. As he felt me up he told me he had a daughter about my age. I instinctively knew that if I tried to fight him I'd only make it worse for myself. So I appealed to his humanity. Luckily he had some. I kept my cool and calmly said something like, he shouldn't be treating me this way, especially if he has a daughter. That seemed to diminish his arousal and after a short while he backed off and left me alone.
That was the worst of dozens of sexual assaults that happened to me as a teenager riding the subway to school. Most were just some loser's hand on my ass or rubbing against me in the crowd. This was NYC back in the 70s. Women got sexually assaulted so often in the subway that it was almost a rite of passage. We didn't bother to go to the police. The police wouldn't have cared.
All the women I grew up with in NYC had been groped more than once on the subway. None of us felt flattered by the attention. But this was NYC and we had no other choice than to ride the subway. Only the very wealthy drove in the city. I left NYC in 1995 for good, because I never want to live that way again.
I would not call Biden a loser to his face, because I feel too sorry for old people who are making fools of themselves.
I give Trump a pass for sucking up to Harold Stern back in the day because he (Trump) is one of the few people in his milieu who got wiser as they got older. Creepy Harold hates Trump now, and that is something that looks good for Trump.
Hey Libs! Remember this?

"Bill Clinton's sexual deviancy never stopped Hillary from shoving herself down our throats."
And I'm sure she didn't care and so therefore wouldn't even try to stop Bill Clinton from shoving himself down lewinsky's throat.
Night Owl - sorry to hear that.
I wonder if things are better now, with all the video devices.
Well well well.
The AP now admits that they interviewed Tara Reade in 2019 but then refused to publish the interview.
Well well well.
It just keeps getting better and better.
Apparently they are misreptesenting the subsrance of her complaint, quelle.
It was a beautiful cloudless day in the 90's today, just perfect for a motorcycle ride, so in shorts I took a ride down the Vegas Strip at about 5pm. Saturday evening at 5pm would normally be an open street party all over this town on a day like today. Now it's a ghost town. The contrast is really sad. The signs are all flashing advertising multiple ways to be having fun and exchanging money and contagions with abandon, and I was taken back to us doing just that so many times in the past. For instance just the year before last we took a big group of friends and family to a show, then Ubered all over town from place to place, having a great time and rubbing shoulders with thousands of people. By this date that year we had already had flu deaths alone that were double what we have had from Covid so far. Nobody knew about it, nobody cared about it, and nothing outside those close to those people was affected at all by it. How is that possible? How can it ever be possible again? It should be possible. It should be normal, because it is, and always has been. We have royally screwed the pooch on this. Mass stupidity facilitated by government, the media, and the gullible. It's really a shame.
Who's Harold Stern? Did you mean Howard Stern?
Justin hart looked at the numbers the track for flu and pneumonia have been at these levels for three years running.
I just saw a recent photo of Biden. He looks terrible. Did he have face work done too?
Bagoh2o: Nobody felt sorry for Bill Clinton. He was the party animal everyone wanted to have a beer with. Plus the economy was going great remember that was the salad days Before 9/11 that they called the end of history. He was riding a wave of popularity you didn't make the wave he just knew how to shred to his advantage.
Getting a Lewinski doesn't mean that you have to get it from Monica.
The art of seducing a woman doesn't require handsome face. It certainly helps but some of the best lady's mens are very homely men. It's all about the pitch.
Other than that everything you said was spot on
It's very common for people to mix up Howard and Harold. Trust me I'm an expert. Just for shits and grins I've let people call me Harold until someone else corrects them.
Nothing gets rhardin into spitfire mode like this stuff...
"Howie" puts you in your own special space.
I call him Harold for a specific reason.
At least one member of the wack pack googles in search of my comments, and (s)he misses the posts when I call him Harold.
I Know it is Howard, honey.
All the women I grew up with in NYC had been groped more than once on the subway.
This is why I think all woman should know how to handle a gun and have one available. My daughters all know about guns. They all have one available. Also why I would never live in New York City.
Even my Bernie Bro daughter has a gun and a supply of Hydroxychloroquine.
It's like the lawyer for the defense in a case I was a witness in. He said. "I'm a bleeding heart liberal but this is business."
