buwaya said...: Willie Brown used to bang all his secretaries.
He would then give them his old cars.

He gave his Miata to a Chinese girl who was his secretary when he was mayor of SF.

Herb Caen used to rib him about it in the SF Chronicle.; 8/20/20, 4:45 PM
Vance said...: She knows a predator when she sees one... and she agrees to be said predator's running mate.

After all, when asked about Tara Reid's accusations against Biden, she was all about believing them. And if Reid is correct, Biden is a rapist predator. Harris believes that, in her own words!

And she fully supports Joe Biden, despite believing he is a predatory rapist. Kamala Harris wants to put a rapist in the oval office, again! (Bill Clinton was one too). So much for MeToo!

But then, Harris has zero problems with powerful men sexually using submissive women.... she loved herself some Willie Brown.; 8/20/20, 4:50 PM
gspencer said...: As to predators and the Democrat Party = a target-rich environment; 8/20/20, 4:52 PM
Lem Vibe Bandit said...: "And i'll be honored to serve under him"

To be fair. Joe Biden may not be a predator; he just acts like one sometimes.; 8/20/20, 4:56 PM
ga6 said...: she know Reed Hastings?; 8/20/20, 5:02 PM
Bill, Republic of Texas said...: What is that horrible smacking sound? Trying to get the taste of Biden and/or Dodd out of her mouth?; 8/20/20, 5:04 PM
Rosalyn C. said...: She may have been referring to Willie Brown.

"In 2003, San Francisco Weekly wrote an article that probed the relationship when she was running for District Attorney. That article called Brown 'Harris’ spurned ex-lover and unsolicited political backer.' The article noted that Harris chafed at having to even talk about the Brown relationship, saying, 'I refuse to design my campaign around criticizing Willie Brown for the sake of appearing to be independent when I have no doubt that I am independent of him — and that he would probably right now express some fright about the fact that he cannot control me. His career is over; I will be alive and kicking for the next 40 years. I do not owe him a thing.' She called their relationship an 'albatross' around her neck." https://heavy.com/news/2020/08/kamala-harris-willie-brown/
Not exactly warm feelings toward her previous boyfriend.; 8/20/20, 5:09 PM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...: So Kamala didn't get to meet Billy Jeff?; 8/20/20, 5:11 PM
DKWalser said...: I was a member of my state's board that regulates private colleges when AG Harris joined with Obama's Department of Education to take down one of the nation's largest private colleges. What was the complaint? That the college was misleading students about their career prospects upon graduation. That is, they were going after for profit private schools for engaging in EXACTLY the same kind of behavior as not-for-profit schools (both private and public).

I remember visiting the History Department of a large not-for-profit university. On the desk of the department secretary was a rack of pamphlets describing the many reasons to major in history. One listed all the careers (and average salaries) history graduates could pursue. Ninety-nine percent of those fields did not require a degree in history. Most didn't require a college degree. Yet, the pamphlet could easily lead a reader to believe that a degree in history would equip him or her for entry into a financially rewarding career. Harris and Obama were fine with such pamphlets, if they were distributed by a not-for-profit school. They strongly objected to the SAME pamphlet being distributed by a for profit school.

The Harris/Obama 'remedy' was to prohibit the students at the for profit college from receiving federal or state financial aid. This bankrupted the school. The students, most of them, were harmed by this action to 'protect' them. They'd gone to the for profit college because, in many instances, it allowed them to continue to work full time while going to school. Our state board tried to find other qualified schools that could take on these students. Often, it was difficult to find a school that the student could attend while still meeting work obligations. If they did, it often added months if not years to the time they'd need to be in school.

A lot of people were harmed by this government intervention. Very few -- other than the not-for-profit education establishment -- benefited.; 8/20/20, 5:12 PM
JAORE said...: I can not imagine invoking the image of a predator with that flat vocal display. She is AWFUL when speaking.

And, of course she knows a predator when she sees one. She's joined at the hip with one. You know the perp of the sexual assault where she believes the victim.; 8/20/20, 5:18 PM
bagoh20 said...: The overwhelming majority of videos I watch on YouTube sport commercials attacking Biden and supporting Trump. Some of the stuff I watch is clearly more lefty friendly. I assume they know who I am, and that I like Trump, so why waste money trying to convince me?

The ones showing Biden being spaced out in the middle of an interview or speech are devastating. Based on those, I wouldn't let him drive my dog to the vet. These are not doctored or taken out of context either. He just stops knowing what he's talking about and babels on incoherently. It's embarrassing. I don't feel worst for Drago.; 8/20/20, 5:27 PM
Leland said...: She also assumed she could identify drug dealers by sight alone too.; 8/20/20, 5:38 PM
Rory said...: "an 'albatross' around her neck."

Kinky; 8/20/20, 5:48 PM
Greg The Class Traitor said...: So do I.

Groper Joe Biden is a predator. So is BJ Clinton

And so was Willie Brown, who she serviced in exchange for political position; 8/20/20, 5:53 PM
JPS said...: bagoh20,

"The ones showing Biden being spaced out in the middle of an interview or speech are devastating....These are not doctored or taken out of context either."

Maybe not, but they're cherry-picked. I am worried the right has gotten a little too invested in Biden's mental decline, to the point where if he speaks for an hour and doesn't sound or look like a doddering fool, he's ahead of predictions. My guess is he gives an entirely coherent speech tonight, and if he ever debates Trump he will be on the ball, or seem to be.

I'm not saying he's actually OK. But at some point if he's consistently much more coherent and forceful than the Trump campaign portrays him, he, his handlers, and the 90+% of the national media who are in his corner can effectively laugh off a significant line of attack.; 8/20/20, 6:02 PM
Sheridan said...: Kamala looks in the bathroom mirror and says to herself in a soft voice "I know a predator when I see one."; 8/20/20, 6:15 PM
William said...: Prey to predator. Sublime to ridiculous. There's an inflection point where the eye of the tiger becomes just the jewelry on the tiger skin rug. Was that nice old man, Willie Brown, entrapped in the ambitions of Kamala Harris?; 8/20/20, 6:23 PM
Francisco D said...: I know a phony when I see one. Kah-mah-lah is a true phony.

I (hopefully) pronounced it correctly to show that I am not a racist.; 8/20/20, 6:40 PM
Unknown said...: I've never heard of this "Trump" fellow

Lucky these lyin' Demos

can tell us who he REALLY is

because I don't know enough

Have not been offered enough negative media

to decide for myself

Tell us more about Trump!; 8/20/20, 6:55 PM
Unknown said...: BETTER PUT SOME ICE ON THAT; 8/20/20, 6:56 PM
rhhardin said...: Funny, Scott Adams said her preditor personality is how he knew to predict her nomination as candidate for president, today or maybe yesterday.; 8/20/20, 6:57 PM
Spiros Pappas said...: It's very unlikely that Joe Biden is a "predator." No way he's more than a level one sex offender...; 8/20/20, 7:05 PM
policraticus said...: I know a predator when I see one.

Emmett Till was unavailable for comment...; 8/20/20, 7:06 PM
William said...: Bannon was arrested while aboard a yacht. My guess is that they could have found an easier way to facilitate his arrest. The arrest was managed in such a way as to make Bannon look bad.....The yacht belonged to a Chinese billionaire, but the billionaire is on the outs with the Chinese government. It does look bad getting arrested on a billionaire's yacht, but it's not quite as bad as getting arrested on some Russian oligarch pal of Putin's yacht.; 8/20/20, 7:07 PM
doctrev said...: Arya Stark's "I know a killer when I see one" became meme magic because it was so retarded, after the massacre of King's Landing.

Kamala Harris actually said this despite being Joey KiddieFeeler Biden's VP. This election is gonna be LIT.; 8/20/20, 7:09 PM
Roughcoat said...: Run to the choppa.; 8/20/20, 7:18 PM

I would normally agree with you as I can remember how liberals at the 2000 & 2004 debates where licking their chops at the prospect of having that "dumbass" Bush humiliated for all to see by Al Gore or Kerry. What happened is we saw that Bush parried, held his own and arguably won several of the debates with this supposed super geniuses. I just don't see that in the cards for Joe. Being able to walk on stage and not drool won't be enough.

What makes this different for me is it's pretty obvious at this point the democrats are mindfully hiding Biden in the basement and won't allow him to sit with editorial boards of major newspapers to quiz him on what he plans to do if elected. He is never interviewed by local morning news stations. This is all a part of a normal process for selecting a president which the Biden campaign is purposefully skipping. Why is that?

All of his "press conferences" have been staged with Joe reading from cue cards to answer the "spontaneous" questions thrown at him from hand pick "journalists" Same with the Zoom "interviews" He's reading his answers from cue cards. He won't have that going for him at a live debate where he has to immediately respond to questions, jabs and other unscripted responses from either Trump or the debate panelists.; 8/20/20, 11:17 PM
wendybar said...: Yet, you are standing with Joe Biden. I guess you are blind.....or dumb.; 8/21/20, 4:48 AM
Tina Trent said...: Kamala Harris' Willie Horton moment.

Only, Willie Horton actually was a predator. Turned victim.

And not only do we not remember the names of his victims, but to dare to remember them at all is racist. You can lose your career for wrong remembrance.

This has been going on a long, long, long time.

The flames are just more visible now.; 8/21/20, 6:31 AM
Jeff Brokaw said...: She’d better get busy reporting all her Democrat friends, I guess. Thanks Kamala!

And I agree with JAORE above, her voice is the *worst*. Unlistenable, whiny, passive, no leadership quality whatsoever. Nobody takes you seriously when you talk that way. We need to elect Trump just to make her go away, forever if possible. Women can do this, we’ve heard them before, especially the CEO types like Carly Fiorina. Thats not a coincidence.; 8/21/20, 8:31 AM

I read the Reddit 'popular' posts almost every day for fun (to get my fix of 'aww' puppy videos). Intermixed with that is the r/politics next horrible thing that trump has done.

A lot of them have comments from (presumably) younger genset complaining about "no job, living at home, and crushing student debt": therefore, fuck Trump.

This is the real horror show: not Biden or Harris, but people like this that want more of the same. Biden/Harris are the terrorist ringleaders hiding in a cave spouting smooth words to convince these dopey prolatariat to strap on a suicide vest.; 8/21/20, 9:15 AM
