"Women are not without electrical power."

President Biden was attempting to reference this passage in the Dobbs opinion, which took abortion out of the realm of individual rights and put it in play in the political processes:
Our decision returns the issue of abortion to those legislative bodies, and it allows women on both sides of the abortion issue to seek to affect the legislative process by influencing public opinion, lobbying legislators, voting, and running for office. Women are not without electoral or political power. It is noteworthy that the percentage of women who register to vote and cast ballots is consistently higher than the percentage of men who do so. In the last election in November 2020, women, who make up around 51.5 percent of the population of Mississippi, constituted 55.5 percent of the voters who cast ballots.

Biden was making a good point but garbled it badly. He went on to say: 

Women are not without electoral power or political power — no kidding. Republicans found out the power of women in 2022, and Trump is going to find out the power of women in 2024.

A very well-written line that had a hard time traveling from Teleprompter to vocalization. 

By the way, Biden has found out the power of women in 2024. Nancy... Kamala... they ousted him.

I agree with Biden, women have electrical power as my wife has a whole house generator. I am lucky to be married to a strong, high voltage, pro-life woman.

gilbar म्हणाले...

of course, he MEANS: SINGLE women aren't without power.
The democrat party would Prefer it if married women
(and married men, and single men)
had NO Power..
Because The Only Group that supports the democrat party is: Single Women.

Which raises the interesting question..
What (WHO?) will the Democrat Party use in a generation?

Democrats.. The New Shakers

MartyH म्हणाले...

What was the actual threat Harris used against Biden to get him to drop out? Polls? Invoking the 25th? Revealing his corruption?

What the hell did he take the job from Hillary or Kamala for then?? Joe repeats whatever they tell him to say, and has no clue why he is even saying it. Kamala is much the same. Same as it ever was...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtaA2SO_4oA

Leland म्हणाले...

One aspect of the Dobbs opinion is the recognition that there are women on both sides of the abortion debate. What I sense from Democrats is that women on the pro-life side are somehow tricked by men in their lives to support laws that restrict the use of their body, rather than those women having their own agency.

Temujin म्हणाले...

It's true women are not without power. My wife, my sisters are powerful independent women. And I am lucky to be surrounded by this caliber of people. But I have to ask: Why, if the left is so adamant about the 'power of women', are are so many leftist women parading around in favor of Islam and Hamas, which would render them chattel?
Someone explain it to me.

Succinctly put. If I still believed in irony I would point out the anti-democratic behind-the-scenes machinations of the erroneously named Democrat Party. But that's not the point I'm here to make, for I am interested in what Sherlock Holmes called "the dog that doesn't bark."

The dog in question here is the Big Media who have not once questioned the cover story about Biden "voluntarily" stepping aside and "handing the baton" to Kamala. Even though Pelosi comes close to admitting the strongarming in recent interaction with reporters, and the more recent the "interview" the more blatant she makes it, the dogs refuse to chase that story, sniff out the bones, pounce on the Pulitzer. No, the DNC Media dogs have been trained to obey their master, lay down and roll over on command.

Obedience, not truth, is their highest calling. Good doggies!

The great James Taranto called this The Roe Effect.

Jamie म्हणाले...

Well, the entire speech was cribbed from his other speeches, just like Harris's identical rally speeches and certain lines of Trump's rally shtick (I hesitate to call his two-hour comedy routines "speeches"), so I guess this line was notable in not having been his.

But isn't it an admission against interest? If women have such tremendous electoral power, what is the danger to the "right" to abort a fetus up to 39+ weeks? If that's what we all want, I mean.

Oh. I suppose the problem is that not all women in every state think that's a good "right" to have or exercise. So we need to settle it at the federal level, where the desires of coastal female college graduates (and the men who want to have consequence-free sex with them) are most likely to rule the day.

Biden thought that he could abort the baby... "burden", cannibalize her profitable parts, sequester her carbon, and have her, too. But Biden is no Obama. And the progressive religion of ancient cults will hold its human rites. Karma-lic irony.

Women need a man to explain to them they are not without electoral power?

Mike (MJB Wolf) म्हणाले...

That once she left the room Nancy Pelosi would be in to speak candidly with him. And, Kamala added, that "the tweet endorsing me has already been sent under your X account." (At this point he was still unaware he had sent the "I'm dropping out" letter via X two days prior.)

Biden feels the double-edged scalpel of women and males who identify as the feminine gender to abort their democratic "burden". There is a dark sarcasm powered by his Green... green power and a blight on the environment. American Civil Rights Unburdened

And that was why my husband was talking to the tv: "End your vile speech and get off the stage."

Mutaman had a problem with that when I posted it last night. But repeating the Charlottesville lie, the "suckers and losers" lie, the "dictator on day one" lie, the "nationwide abortion ban" lie... All with the Leni Riefenstahl-endorsed angry yelling and sprinkled with useless "no jokes."

But in some communities they have pneumatic power, so there's that.

Harris couldn't even be bothered to sit up straight. And goodness, Walz needs to school his face - what was that I'm -on-the-verge-of-manly-tears grimace he was wearing almost the entire time?

n.n म्हणाले...

Late-term abortion of their Democratic "burden". Six weeks until homicide is otherwise illegal under statutes in all 50 states. Capitol punishment in DC was a viable Choice. In the words of the infamous left-wing leader: What difference, at this point, does it make? Biden was green, albeit with benefits. Throw another baby on the barbie, it's over.

Just like on the question of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict!

"Women are not without electoral or political power." Correct. And since the Big Brother party successfully appeals to women for whom preventing the birth of millions of babies is more important than preventing the invasion of another 10 million illegal aliens, we are f*&#ed.

JK Brown म्हणाले...

And why do women have electrical power? Mostly because of the work of men.

But while men build the power grid, it is the female the holds all the power when it is up and running....or people die, shockingly

While your at it, point out the horrors of male and female electrical plugs. The male galavanting around using what ever female its near. The female confined to the home, to wait for some random male to come by and rudely plug itself into her.
Of course, as in much of life, the female has all the power in the relationship.

planetgeo म्हणाले...

Inga, congrats on being so charged up and buzzing with all that electrical power, especially since it's hard to imagine you being plugged in all that often these days. But hey, you'll be overjoyed to hear that I am 100% in favor of Democrats being able to have all the vasectomies and abortions they want.

Jamie म्हणाले...

I think Eva Marie has got it - though I suspect few of the women protesting would admit it to themselves. It goes right along with the Kneepads For Clinton thing: they want to be dominated, but in service of a Cause.

Jamie म्हणाले...

He eventually said electoral, but it started as electrical.

JAORE म्हणाले...

I don't imagine many of the vasectomy volunteers in Chicago were high on the "Man, do I ever want to reproduce with THIS guy" list to begin with.

It's interesting how the media never frame the "gender gap" in the equally-valid language -- that the Democrats have an **immense** gender gap with MEN, white men in general and hugely so, but black and hispanic men as well, and significantly moreso amongst those who are *married* and working outside the academic, media, and bureaucracy terrarium.

Wait, I thought Biden was deposed in a coup and was really angry and the delegates were all deprived of their democratic rights or some such thing. The convention was pretty lit for a bunch of bitter people who are planning “another coup” on Harris.

It's not that Biden stumbles over a word; we all do; it's the way he catches himself. He doesn't correct himself quickly and drive on to his point; he looks around like a third-grader who is mindlessly reading and has skipped a line and has to correct himself. The third-grader works away at the correction and then mindlessly continues his reading. And that's what Biden does as well - only he's the President. It's the President functioning like third grader.

Come to think of it, that's not so far from the experience of other revolutionaries who found out too late that the Revolution devours its own.

Michael K म्हणाले...

Joe was really juiced last night. I semi-watched his speech as my wife had the TV on. I thought he was on a lot of amphetamines and wondered if he would go nuts right there. Good point about the insult of putting his speech so late.

When Roe v Wade was overthrown by the SC, my elderly mother, long an abortion foe, was upset. I had to explain to her that no, the new decision did not remove all abortion restrictions from the law, as she thought (as I said, elderly). It just returned the issue to the state legislatures where the US Constitution said it belonged. This made her happy.

I have read posts from leftards here about how it's the republican who's going to be refusing to debate because they're afraid. They (the leftards) are awfully quiet when their candidate (potentially "candidates", we'll see about that soon enough) is the one pulling out of a debate, no doubt fearing the exposure of their inadequacies.

Not really much of a surprise, though- just another day ending in "Y".

Because a certain group of people, usually on the left hand side of the Bell Curve, desperately want a leader to do their thinking for them. The rest of us grew up.
