RUSH: What they\u2019re doing is trying to take out Joe Biden. This is the third thing in our roster today. All of a sudden, now, how many years has Biden been in Washington? Fifty? Thirty? Thirty-two. There\u2019s a story here in the Washington Post, Colby Itkowitz that was published yesterday in the Sunday paper.<\/p>\n

\u201cJoe Biden\u2019s Affectionate, Physical Style With Women Comes Under Scrutiny.<\/a>\u201d His affectionate, physical style. Okay. Affectionate, physical style, they now say, for Joe Biden. You mean like Bill Clinton\u2019s affectionate, physical style with interns or Bill Cosby\u2019s affectionate, physical style with dates or Harvey Weinstein\u2019s affectionate, physical style with actresses or Amy Klobuchar\u2019s affectionate, physical style with her staffers or, even better, Kermit Gosnell\u2019s affectionate, physical style with newborns.<\/p>\n

Here comes Joe Biden, who has been nuzzling women\u2019s necks while massaging their shoulders, whispering sweet nothings into their ears for his entire Washington career, and they put up with it because it was just Joe and his affectionate, physical style. Everybody knew it. They put up with it. It was fine and dandy as long as he was a good sycophant for Obama, as long as he kept his place. They\u2019d even let him get away with telling guys in wheelchairs to stand up, until he realized the guy was actually in a wheelchair.<\/p>\n

Now, where is this criticism of Biden coming from all of a sudden? There\u2019s this gigantic story out there. Lucy Flores, Nevada state assemblywoman. She has accused Biden of attacking her, of molesting her, of making her feel nervous, of just making her feel generally uncomfortable, he was sleazy, she didn\u2019t ask for it, and she says that because of all this he\u2019s disqualified.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s another woman out there with another picture. Her last name is Carter. She\u2019s the wife of Ash Carter, the secretary of defense, one of them in the Obama administration, and Biden\u2019s standing behind her, she\u2019s got this nice smile on her face, tolerant smile, and Biden\u2019s massaging her shoulders and nuzzling her neck, standing behind her, whispering into her ear. She\u2019s out there: This is not a #MeToo moment. Joe Biden, everybody knows he\u2019s harmless, he doesn\u2019t mean anything by it. He just has an affectionate, physical style with women, and everybody knows it and it\u2019s okay. I do not want to be part of this, she said.<\/p>\n

So Lucy Flores — but there\u2019s plenty of other women who do. And it is clear, did I not tell you once or twice ago when the polls came out and Biden was leading the pack and he still is, did I not prognosticate that the last thing the Democrats want to nominate is an old, aging white guy?<\/p>\n

\"\"With all of this diversity, and all of the women who think they\u2019re men and all the men who think they\u2019re women and all of the people of color and different sexual genders and orientations or a mixture of all of that, the Democrat Party is trying to rebrand and identify itself to be demographically in touch with whatever they think the new America is or is going to become. And a dinosaur like Biden, it ain\u2019t gonna happen. And Crazy Bernie had better keep a sharp eye out on what they\u2019re doing to Biden, because he could be next.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s fascinating to me, folks, that all of the allegations coming forth about Biden\u2019s affectionate, physical style are from Democrats. They\u2019re all Democrats. Almost all of them are women Democrats. And look at the evidence they\u2019ve been collecting! Look at the evidence they\u2019ve got! Look at how long they have remained silent about this.<\/p>\n

This is Joe Biden. He has been a hero for eight years during Obama because he was loyal and he spoke well of Obama, did great speeches for Obama at Democrat conventions, he was a good stand-in. But they\u2019ve nevertheless been holding all of this stuff and keeping it for targeted release.<\/p>\n

Have you seen, there are video montages left and right, both video and still shots of Biden nuzzling the neck, whispering into the ear, smelling the hair, rubbing the shoulders. Do you know how many there are? There are more than you can count! More than you can count. There are montages galore out there. And you know why? ‘Cause it\u2019s been going on his entire career! They\u2019ve got an entire Biden career video library of this affectionate, physical behavior!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s not the first time it\u2019s been pointed out. Over the years Republicans have kind of raised eyebrows about this. The Democrats shrugged it off. Nah, that\u2019s just Joe. When Joe would tell a guy paralyzed from the waist down in a wheelchair to stand up, that\u2019s just Joe. When Joe plagiarized<\/a>, that\u2019s just Joe. And now it\u2019s Joe\u2019s affectionate, physical style, as they attempt to defend him here in the Washington Post.<\/p>\n
