Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign has admitted the former vice president was not arrested for trying to visit Nelson Mandela at a South African prison during apartheid after the Democratic candidate used the claim at least three times during appearances in recent weeks. In campaign visits to Nevada and South Carolina, Mr Biden claimed he was arrested with the US ambassador to the United Nations in Soweto, despite there being no publicly available evidence of the incident.(Snip) Now, his presidential campaign has walked back the claim and admitted he was only “separated” from a congressional delegation at a South African airport.

I am beginning to think of him as a very unengaging Walter Mitty. Mitty was kind of a character. Biden is just a baldfaced (baldheaded?) liar.
I’ve just read his section in Peter Schweizer’s book Profiles in Corruption. I don’t know how Biden can show his face let alone run for president. Crooked to the core. Also no wonder that Jill supports his run. She had to benefit the way the rest of the Bidens have done. Hitched her wagon to a $tar...

So, for how many years, and how many Democrats, have been lying to the potential voting audience?
And why? Do they not think their target audience is smart enough? Or, that they've done it for so many years, they simply feel it's never been challenged so they keep repeating stories?

old Jo has always been a bit of a pathological liar.
this latest dust-up is something different. Some people suffering from dementia have fabulist tales dancing in their brains. And they believe the fables.
If debate moderators were honest and competent, they would challenge Old Jo on his fables,, which would work in his favor, I would think.
he could apologize, and clear the board.

But, but, but, I thought that he was arrested in SA along with his homeboy Corn Pop . . . while he was in Afghanistan under enemy fire . . . and that the arrest made the blonde hairs on his legs stand up.
I'm really disappointed by this turn of events (s/o)

This is all so confusing....for Joe and for us. He has been used to making up stories for his whole life and nobody called him on them. Now he can't remember which of the stories are real, which he made up from thin air, and some people are calling him on them. We can't tell how much of this is because he is just a lying snake, and how much is because his brain is burnt out.
Say, "Goodnight", Joe.

I don't know, #1. Your speculation about who Gropin' Joe visited seems to be quite a stretch. *I* think while visiting someone's house (presumably someone named Nelson), he saw a crocheted mandala in a locked cabinet.

The poor man is so addlepated now that he cannot distinguish between what is real and what he imagines. How can any reasonable person would vote for him?

So, according to Joe, he was trying to visit a convicted murderer and terrorist. Why?

Memo to Joe. The "Some of my best friends are black (gay, women, dyslexic, Swedish, short, fat, etc) doesn't work with the victims anymore. Nobody really believes that Corn Pop was actually Winnie Mandela so just give it up and go spend Hunter's money before he blows it all.

It’s self-aggrandizement and nothing more. He’s lying to appear as many things that are simply not part of his character or his deeds. He is a complete fraud and always has been.

I bet they won’t admit that Joe Biden and family has been involved in nepotistic corruption as far back as when Biden entered the US Senate well over forty years ago?

The real story is that Joe was part of a SEAL team that went in to get Mandela out.....
