Women Want Safety, Not Biden's Abuse of Power

Senator Joe Biden proudly proclaims that he was regularly and severely beaten by his older sister as a child and as an adolescent. This same sister raised his two sons after his wife and daughter were killed in an auto accident.

Biden has often claimed that the Violence against Women Act is the greatest achievement of his career. He also claims that a woman cannot be a perpetrator of domestic violence, despite the fact that hundreds of studies show that women commit acts of domestic violence as often or more often than men. Many studies also show that lesbian women physically attack their intimate partners at higher rates than heterosexual men.

As a result of Biden's Violence against Women Act, the federal government pays states to create laws effectively requiring that innocent men be removed from their homes and families without even an allegation of violence, with no legitimate standards of evidence, when a woman makes a claim that she is afraid.

Joe Biden was knocked down by his sister, and got back up, over and over again. Now this former stutterer thinks it's time to use his feminist sisters to knock down American fathers and husbands... by the millions.

Has anyone in this world who is a ‘Younger sibling’ ever NOT been beaten up by their older sibling?

My sister smothered me with a pillow until I passed out and bodily picked me up and threw me into a bathtub.

Our oldest sister used to make her stand at the end of the hallway, tell her to cover her eyes and yank the runner carpet from under her feet yelling ‘Surprise’!

Sometimes I think I lived with long lost cousins of Heath Ledger.

Get over it Joe.

Katie Couric: "As a non-partisan journalist, good luck to you."

This sister? Valerie?

Joe is the oldest of the four children. Valerie, is only 62, but I've read several accounts of that same story that Joe mentioned being beaten by his older sister. Was she just bigger than him?

Here's a better and more accurate reference for this story:

From Joe Biden's Weird Sense of Chivalry, by Carey Roberts, May 3, 2006:

Call it senator Joseph Biden's family secret. He grew up with a bully-sister. She didn't just boss people around - she beat people up. Her name was Valerie. She was Joe's younger sister.

How do we know this? Because Mr. Biden, with his usual unblemished candor, told us. It happened during the Senate hearings held on December 11, 1990 to probe the problem of violence against women. This was Biden's tell-all:

"In my house, being raised with a sister and three brothers, there was an absolute - it was a nuclear sanction, if under any circumstances, for any reason, no matter how justified, even self-defense - if you ever touched your sister, not figuratively, literally. My sister, who is my best friend, my campaign manager, my confidante, grew up with absolute impunity in our household."

And this was the good senator's bell-ringer: "And I have the bruises to prove it. I mean that sincerely. I am not exaggerating when I say that."

Valerie Biden Owens is collecting a lot of big checks from the campaign.
