In the Fall of 1991, I was riding in a taxi down K Street in Washington, D.C. on a Saturday when the Senate hearings on Judge Thomas were underway.  I was going to a board meeting of a group I was associated with for seven years. A global third world funding project called Appropriate Technology International.

The driver was an Arab speaker with the radio tuned to the Senate hearings.  Anita Hill was testifying about the day she was with Thomas who had a can of Coke in his hand and he joked that there was a pubic hair on the can. The driver asked me what “pubic” was? I said it was hair from her pussy. He drove the cab into the center divide and just missed killing us on a tree before pulling back into the right lane.

How was Joe Biden responsible for this?  He was on the Senate committee and had met the previous weekend with Thomas to tell him the whole hearing would be a “breeze.”  Biden knew all along that Hill was a sneak witness against Thomas.
