Biden's About Face on Black Woman SCOTUS Justice Nomination

Editorial Staff - February 2, 2022

The two sides of Joe Biden's mouth that he speaks out of have come out to bite him in the ass once again. Of course we all know that politicians are known for speaking with a forked tongue. But this story tells the truth about Joe Biden and how he really feels. It is a big disappointment to say the least. Back in his days as a senator and before he needed a large chunk of the black vote when Justice Sandra Day O’Connor announced her retirement, Then Judge Brown was on Bush’s shortlist to replace her. She would have been the first Black woman ever nominated to serve as an associate justice of the Supreme Court. Kudos to President Bush for such consideration.

Biden at the time appeared on CBS’s “Face the Nation” to warn that if Bush nominated Brown, she would face a filibuster claiming “I can assure you that would be a very, very, very difficult fight and she probably would be filibustered,” Gee Joe, why would you make such a comment?

Asked by moderator John Roberts “Wasn’t she just confirmed?,” Biden replied that the Supreme Court is a “totally different ballgame” because “a circuit court judge is bound by stare decisis. They don’t get to make new law.” What a lame excuse Joe. But now that he is in a situation where he feels he must deliver on his campaign promise to nominate a Black Woman to the Supreme Court he is speaking out of the other side of his mouth. Although that should not surprise anyone of my readers. Joe has been doing that his whole political life. Now don't get me wrong the disdain that many of us have for our political leaders these days has shown the vast majority of them to be guilty of the same charge. #SCOTUSnomination #bidenforkedtongue #supremecourt #justicenomination
