1. Such respect for Joan Walsh. The issue for some (women) is that we have continually supported and elected men with a history of sexual abuse allegations against them. Our Supreme Court, our Executive Office, our Congress and Senate... filled with men who have not answered...
substantially to allegations made against them. Reade, whether she is a Putin plant or not (I suppose that is the suggestion made by Ms. Walsh) deserves to have a space by which to tell her story and that space was denied her by media because media deemed the story unworthy,
which seems unfair and unjust. There is a saying in medicine that more doctors are sued for malpractice because of their failure to apologize for a medical mishap, than for the act itself. Biden's people follow the same line all politicians do -- don't give it credence - ignore.
But, I, with my little eyes have seen behaviors exhibited by Biden troubling to *me* involving inappropriate boundaries with women and girls. Is Ms. Reade's story true? Is she a plant by the Russian security forces? How would we know? This story will *never* be investigated...
as all sexual allegations should be. But, for every Reade taken down by a media, there are 1,000 women who are abused -- who will follow Reade, but will never speak out. For every Reade suggested a liar, there are 10,000 women who will be raped because their attackers know...
no one will believe a victim. I once had an intimate partner hit me and then look me dead in the eye and say he had not. For a moment, I believed him. I had an older friend who dated a well-known actor and SNL alum. She told me he knocked her out in their kitchen and when...
she came to, he was standing over her with a roast beef sandwich. A friend sexually assaulted by her college coach...too many stories.
We should not frame these stories as "who is telling the truth?", but rather, where and how do we create the opportunity for truth to be...
