posted the text of Biden’s comments here [video at link below] — I am quite sure he confirmed Putin’s view of him as a fool several times over. That can’t be good for the United States.
Reviewing the text of Biden’s remarks, I was surprised to find Biden paraphrasing the Declaration of Independence: I told him that, unlike other countries, including Russia, we’re uniquely a product of an idea. You’ve heard me say this before, again and again, but I’m going to keep saying it. What’s that idea? We don’t derive our rights from the government; we possess them because we’re born — period. And we yield them to a government. And so, at the forum, I pointed out to him that that’s why we’re going raise our concerns about cases like Aleksey Navalny. I made it clear to President Putin that we’ll continue to raise issues of fundamental human rights because that’s what we are, that’s who we are. The idea is: “We hold these truths self-evident that all men and women [sic]…” We haven’t lived up to it completely, but we’ve always widened the arc of commitment and included more and more people. This is a deformed and denatured version of the Declaration’s operative statement, long ago abandoned by Democrats as obsolete. From the perspective of “progressive” Democrats, this is unacceptably recrudescent. However, Biden doesn’t mean it. They won’t get too worked up about it. click to read the rest at Powerline News and Views From Around the Web:
