And he said he "never thought" he'd be fighting "new attempts -- new attempts -- to restrict the right of our people to vote."

"Our people?" What, does he have a whole pocketful of black mice or something?

"...he said he "never thought" he'd be fighting "new attempts -- new attempts -- to restrict the right of our people to vote..."

Probably got that idea from his buddy/mentor Bobby Carl.

There goes Old Joe, playing fast and easy with the truth. True, he was born in Scranton, PA 11/24/1942. He moved to Delaware in 1953 (age 11) and attended a private/expensive school.

He claims to have been a lifeguard in East Scranton, PA at 17 (1969). Scranton is a heck of a commute from Delaware.

BTW, he didn’t graduate from high school until he was 19. And he was never a genius academically - “B’s” in high school, 506 out of 688 at UD and 76th out of 88 at law school.

Is anyone else getting tired of the overuse of the word, “Folks”?

Yes. It is as obnoxious to me when O’Reilly uses it as when Bronco Bama uses it to excess. The only difference is that I despise Bronco and only find Bill mildly annoying.

Reminds me of ‘Suwanee River’.

I can't $#%^ing read, especially if it's moving.

"Biden said he got involved in the civil rights movement "when I was just a kid.""

I'm surprised he didn't claim to have been an indentured servant.
