Joe Biden flatly refuses to answer
the question of if he will engage in “court-packing,” adding more seats to the
Supreme Court to benefit Democrats a ̀la Franklin Roosevelt’s failed 1937
proposal. (FDR’s unconstitutional attempt to pack
the court to help pave the way for his “New Deal” expansion of Federal
control over the American economy was ultimately voted down in the Senate by a
vote of 70 to 22.) Kamala
Harris refused to answer the same question in her recent debate with
Vice-President Pence.
Biden refused to answer that question yet again
the day after the vice-presidential debate, replying: “Now,
look, I know it’s a great question, and y’all — and I don’t blame you for
asking it. But you know the moment I answer that question, the headline in
every one of your papers will be about that.” While in Arizona campaigning with
Harris he said, of the American people, “They’ll know my opinion on
court-packing when the election is over.”
Not a shining
example of transparency. Democrats love telling people that they will have to
wait until after it’s too late to prevent something from happening before they
have enough information to decide if they want it to happen or not. Do you
recall Speaker Pelosi’s famous remark, “We have to pass the bill so that you can
find out what’s in it?”
It is beyond
stupefying and pathetic that the mainstream media continuously allow Democrats
to get away with giving American voters the figurative finger like this.
Shameful doesn’t cut it. Neither does dereliction of duty.
Try to imagine
President Trump saying he won’t answer a question on if he plans to overturn
the Emancipation Proclamation and repeal the 13th Amendment until
after the election is over. I’m guessing the media might run with that one for
a while.
On matters of
import, in a democracy, it is kind of important that voters know what
candidates plan to do if elected…before they are elected. Otherwise, the
entire exercise is a pointless sham. Reporters demand to know Trump’s blood
oxygen level at every hour of the day and night, and how many cheeseburgers
he’s consumed in the past month, yet are utterly sanguine when Democratic
candidates for the highest office in the land refuse to answer the most basic
policy questions.
So, sadly, we can
look forward to Joe Biden telling reporters: “Now, look, I know it’s a great
question, and y’all — and I don’t blame you for asking it. But you know the
moment I answer that question, the headline in every one of your papers will be
about that. The American people will know if I plan to ban motorized
travel/legalize bestiality/invade Canada when the election is over.”
Even more
recently, a local television reporter asked Biden—or tried to-- if he thought
the American people deserve to know if he will pack the court or not. The
reporter said, “Well, sir, don’t the voters deserve to know where you stand—” before
Biden rudely cut him off and snapped, “No,
they don’t deserve…I’m not going to play his game.”
That is what Joe
Biden thinks of those he wishes to rule over. Incredibly, he doesn’t believe
voters deserve to know where he stands on the issues. Stupefyingly, the mainstream
media steadfastly refuses to hold him accountable or even mention the exchange.
In a sane world, that comment—alone—should have cost Biden the election.
