Marsha Blackburn responds to Biden's "Neanderthal" comments w/ impassioned defense of Neanderthals: "Neanderthals are hunter-gatherers, they're protectors of their family, they're resilient, they're resourceful, they tend to their own. So I think Joe Biden needs to rethink [it]."

1. These are the leaders of the Darwin Awards. Unfortunately, they put innocents at risk because

of their behavior

[nykym]

2. Hey Marsha

Improved radiocarbon dating published in 2015 indicates that Neanderthals disappeared around 40,000 years ago.
I guess a few slipped trough the time warp!

[DFW]

15. I guess since the stream and the valley still exist.....

She must figure that they all still live here



Maybe she can come here (this is a 20 minute drive south of where I live) and go look for them. In fact, let's not let her go back to the States until she finds them.

[PatSeg]

3. Oh, I think Marsha, Marsha, Marsha is overthinking this

and does she realize that they WERE hunter-gathers, etc.?

Once again just making noise to make noise. Try doing your job lady.

[Marcuse]

4. If she believes calling someone a Neanderthal is a compliment then what's her problem?

[underpants]

7. Thank you. She cherishes it and then plays victim.

Fox News guy “Yeah!”

[TomDaisy]

5. so she is admitting the Earth is 6000 years old.

[dweller]

6. Joe could walk this back

and say he misspoke ... he meant repuglican... easy to confuse them

✌🏻

8. I have actually wondered before the comment if a lot of Republicans have been...

Accumulating a lot of Neanderthal genes in their family trees to explain their bile traits.

[BlueTsunami2018]

9. Simple to turn this around.

“In retrospect, it was unfair to Neanderthals to compare them to the primitive mindset that one must have in order to think ending the mask mandates makes sense. I apologize to our Neanderthal ancestors.”

[soothsayer]

10. There you go!

[Buckeye_Democrat]

11. That would be perfect.

Also... I have European ancestry and about 2% Neanderthal DNA according to 23andMe, but I certainly don't identify with them!

They seemed like decent-behaving humanoids, with evidence of them lovingly burying their dead surrounded with flowers and such, but they're also LONG EXTINCT except for tiny traces of their DNA!

CNN seemed to be dwelling on Biden's use of that N-word yesterday too, which also struck me as completely ludicrous.

[dilby]

12. She forgot to mention they are also unemployed

Since Geico has not been hiring any for their commercials. It’s truly a hard time to be a Neanderthal in todays society being replaced by a CGI Lizard.

[dhill926]

13. oh just shut the fuck up....

she think this is a gotcha? Mega stupid....

[stillcool]

14. the orders been given...

They'll all be tweeting their Neanderthal outrage. Fucking assholes have nothing better to do.

[JDC]

16. Maybe they can make Neanderthal t-shirts

for the next rally.

[Generic Brad]

17. That's my senator!

[oasis]

18. Dunderhead Deplorables. And Marsha's one of 'em.
