Joe Biden said he takes responsibility for how Anita Hill was treated during her testimony against then-Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas in 1991

Biden, who chaired the Senate Judiciary Committee during the hearings, said in an interview with ABC's Robin Roberts that he"believed [Hill] from the very beginning, but I was chairman. She did not get a fair hearing. She did not get treated well. That's my responsibility.""As the committee chairman, I take responsibility that she did not get treated well. I take responsibility for that," Biden said in a video of the interview.

Read MoreOn the day he entered the White House race last week, Biden's campaign said that he had spoken to Hill about the hearings and expressed"regret," but declined to specify when the two had spoken and did not offer an explicit apology.Hill addressed the subject herself in an interview with the New York Times published that same day and called Biden's statement of regret inadequate.

السلام عليكم ورحمه الله تعالى غ

He then lied (again) on The View saying he always believed her when contemporaneous accounts had him saying he thought she was lying. One thing Wierd Uncle Joe and Trump seem to have in common, lying comes easy to both.

She lied. What else should have happened? She got better than she deserved

Move on Biden wasn't the only person at these hearings. Can't change a thing get over it Anita Hill and everybody else. Nothing can bring Biden down he's serious about leading our country into the future. Uniting not dividing us like Trump dose. Trump will be a thing of the past

Almost 30 years too late!!

The Denate was a Bipartisan body when Anita Hill Appeared. Biden couldn’t get the votes to have more witnesses testify. He’s taking the hit as chairman as he should but in 2016 as chairman he would have done strictly party vote & other woman could testify & Thomas not on SCOTUS

Keep going Joe on this. You will eventual get to the right place as you keep amending your responses.

I watched how they treated Anita. The white guy just about called her a whore. Biden only wanted a name.

Self serving hypocrite! He had 28 years to make it right, but he chose now.

If biden is responsible of how anita hill was treated then he is not fit to be president...

What about the black man the left tried their ‘high tech lynching’ on? Headline: Biden wishes his attempted high tech lynching succeeded in keeping a qualified black man off the supreme court.

Make Anita Great Again (MAGA)!

And he should. He needs to say the words to her ' I apologize for how I treated you.'

CLARENCE THOMAS SHOULD BE TAKING RESPONSIBILITY!!!!!!!!..... CLARENCE THOMAS SHOULD APOLOGIZE NOT Biden!!!

She should not be an issue.

Oh, now you say sonething. Biden is garbage sloppyJOE SleepyJoe DemocratsAreDestroyingAmerica DemocratsHateAmerica DemocratsAreCorrupt DemocratsAreDangerous

And no questions about the Ukraine

Does he take responsibility for plagiarizing his speech's in the 80's and lying about his grades He's a very old politician. Nothing more.

Funny how people apologize for things when they are running for office. You called her a liar, why apologize 20 years later?

He should take accountability for being a serial molester too!!

Where was senatemajldr & the GOP ‘s admitted responsibility for driving thru Thomas’ nomination? Oh yes, we recall, they made amends by confirming Kavanagh! Enuf with double standards! JoeBiden Let’s not forget the disgusting behavior towards women of a now sitting POTUS

I love Uncle Joe. He is so sweet.

Was that the case with the pubic hair on the Pepsi can?

When will Trump take responsibility for all the shit he’s done to multiple women? Answer: Never! Joe Biden is a decent man who accepts his mistakes. Trump blames his mistakes on everybody else. Thank you, JoeBiden For showing us what class looks like.

Nice Too late Clueless Joe.
