"But I’ve thought about the word 'hate' a lot. Not, as Nancy Pelosi said, in relation to being Catholic. But in relation to being a woman."
"The reason it upset me was that it seemed like a way to undercut legitimate concerns I had about the behavior of a president or would-be president by suggesting that strong emotions were clouding my judgment. It’s not that they are doing something wrong; it’s that you are an overwrought female. It evoked the old trope that women are vengeful and hysterical...."Writes Maureen Dowd, in "Hating the Word ‘Hate’/Don’t mess with us, man" (NYT). It's a little hard to do the gender analysis on Pelosi's going ballistic on the word "hate," because we had Joe Biden going way over the top on the same day and getting at least as much mockery. But Dowd doesn't ignore the corresponding Biden story. She just pivots. Meanwhile, in Iowa...
In Iowa, meanwhile, surly Joe Biden erupted at an 83-year-old retired farmer who brought up Hunter Biden’s nepotistic payday from a Ukrainian energy company. The farmer had his facts twisted, mistakenly claiming that Biden had “sent” his son to work in Ukraine to sell “access” to the president....Notice that Dowd accepts that Hunter Biden made lots of money off his father's position — "windfalls," "a quick buck," "money grab." And she thinks the Iowa guy had a good question even if it was a little defective (in saying Biden sent his son). There are millions of others who want an answer to a legitimate question, and answering questions shouldn't depend on phrasing them exactly right. I agree with Dowd that Biden's response "showed that he has no answer."
Biden’s outburst — “You’re a damn liar, man,” he snapped — showed that he still thinks any questions about his son’s windfalls while he was vice president are out of line — even though Hunter himself has acknowledged using “poor judgment.”
It also showed that he has no answer for something that’s bound to be a big part of the general campaign, since it is at the heart of the crazy Rudy-Donny conspiracy theory that provoked the impeachment drive. If Joe Biden can’t handle an 83-year-old retired farmer without losing his cool, how can he handle a 73-year-old piranha?
Withholding $400 million in military aid to a fledging democracy under attack from Russia is in a different universe than making a quick buck off the Washington influence machine. But that farmer is not the only voter who feels a little queasy about Joe Biden not stopping Hunter from making a money grab in Ukraine while the vice president was pushing the Ukrainians to be less corrupt.
