"Justice" a new documentary on Kavanaugh

All he needed to do was the calmly say something like how he didn’t believe that he was possible of doing that, that he did have a drinking problem when he was a teenager and that he’s spent the rest of his life trying to be a supporter of women by hiring a greater percentage of female clerks than the vast majority of judges. People who would be willing to say that people can change from their 18-year old selves. Instead he lied about his drinking, he lied about his behaviors in high school and college and he went completely unhinged about the Clintons and how he hates all Democrats. Frankly we should only have justices who can rise above partisanship- instead was have an immoral, unhinged, extreme partisan on the court. Just what we need.


Then the response would have been there is something wrong with him reacting so coldly to accusation of rape.
Saying that he essentially confessed and is thus unqualified to serve.

This was the objective all along, to see if they could get Republicans to blink and not nominate a 5th conservative to the Supreme Court, and if they didn't do so, to have a black mark on him that they could use against him in the future, and serve as a threat to future nominees about what will happen to them.

Fact someone paid his debts the there is no way he can be honest on that court. Full Stop.

So next time you post that he's not a liar the FACTS do not lie. He literally took money and sold his sole.

As for the rape charges they were never investigated so you have nothing zero nadda to back up your point.

If he is so not guility than he should have welcomed an investigation.

Let's try this again Who paid his mortgage? OVER a MILLION $ who paid his credit cards off $200,000 This right here he lied on his discloure forms .


Maybe the debts were paid by Christine Ford's dad who was embarrassed at the harm she caused to Kavanaugh's family.
Her family was nowhere to be seen during these hearings, because they knew their daughter well.

Shame on all of you


DP. She had three decades to come forward, but did not. Give us all a break.


I was raped at knifepoint when I was 18. It was an ordeal that lasted five hours. That was 35 years ago and I did not report it to the police because the stranger who raped me told me that he "knew where to find me and the next time I would really be sorry if I reported the assault to the police."

I was petrified and terrified and I was 4 years older than 14 yr old CBF.

If you have a daughter, I pray that she is never raped but I do pray that she will have someone to go to who will not judge her behavior or call her a liar.

You are such a pathetic excuse of a human being and my wish for you is that receive everything that you richly deserve and may they come soon and in spades.


Wow - way to make this all about you. Your situation has nothing to do with this. He didn’t rape anyone - nor was he accused of rape. Please stop projecting your trauma onto someone who had nothing to do with it.


It was a specific response to the idea that because someone didn't report it at the time, the story must be false.
Plus the given accusation is close to rape.

No, the allegation was not “close to rape” at all. Anyone categorizing it as such makes it clear they are not a serious person. Regardless, you’re welcome to believe whatever you want, as are the rest of us. I think this was a false accusation, specifically designed and encouraged by Democrats to prevent his confirmation to the bench. I’m glad it didn’t work.

Precisely this. The left loves a good intimidation tactic.

And, if Ford lied can she be prosecuted? Because I believe that is much more likely.



Ford clearly lied. I watched her testimony and she showed all signs of lying.

Are you a forensic psychiatrist? If so I’d love to hear more. If not then you are a fool for posting this.


Cute.

No, I'm not a "forensic psychiatrist" but someone trained in a much more relevant discipline.

Ford was clearly lying. She was making things up about her lie-detector test -- it was obvious.


+1

She looked insane and hysterical while testifying. Supposedly she is doctor? No way in hell she is a real doctor. It's unbelievable that some people who claim to be critical thinkers believed her. I've come to the conclusion that anyone who is ideological is incapable of being objective.




His behavior during the hearing should’ve disqualified him. Republicans had a majority and could’ve demanded Trump name someone else, similar to Harriet Myers under W. A Republican was going to be confirmed to the court and that person didn’t need to be Kavanaugh.

Exactly. A conservative was going to be named. He wasn’t a good pick. His behavior was embarrassing.

+1. They could have found another Gorsuch (not that I'm a Gorsuch fan, but this is how much the bar has been lowered).

I’m very interested in what that relevant discipline is and what signs you saw.



Won't share the discipline but here is something that was a red flag to me and colleagues.

At some point Ford said that she had taken a lie detector test the very same day her grandma (or mother?) had died. The interviewer then interrupted to doublecheck if that was the case, because you should never take such a test in such an emotional moment, it screws the baseline and the results.

Ford realized that her previous testimony made no sense and improvised something like "Uh I'm not sure, might have been a day before or after the funeral"

Which makes even less sense. Attending your grandma's funeral is one of those moments you remember vividly, and if you took a lie detector test in some office that same day you'd remember it. And if you say it was that day you don't just make things up and then say it might have been a day before or later.


My brother died when I was 28. I went to his funeral and I do know the month but have no idea of the actual date.

You probably also think that Anita Hill lied


It's not about the actual date. You would remember if you did something else major the same day.



Exactly. Especially if it happened less than a year ago and you had spent weeks training your testimony with multiple lawyers (all helpfully provided by the Democratic Party).

Ford was an obvious fraud.


Even with her trained testimony she came off as being unhinged. She was a hot mess and had a crazed look in her eyes. Definitely not a credible witness to everyone except hard core dems.


Yes BK did come across as unhinged. Dod you see all those faces he made? Way too emotional and overly dramatic. Clearly staged. He is such a liar.


I'm going to accuse you of sexual assault. I expect you to remain calm and poised while I do so, televised in front of millions, even if you know you're innocent. Let's see how that goes.
DP


I can think of quite a few instances where similar situations happened where someone was accused, rightly, or wrongly, and did not become as unhinged over it as Kavanaugh did.


Really? Similar situation as in, was falsely accused and then had to immediately be televised while refuting said allegations? Do tell. Examples please.


Sociopaths are very good at keeping calm in situations such as this. They are practiced. Ted Bundy was able to sit on a rape hotline and discuss his own murders with a detective friend he met there.

I say it again: Kavanaugh exists on the court because he’s the GOP’s middle finger to normal, non-extremist people.

That plus he sits on the Court because Mitch McConnell ensured that Merrick Garland didn’t. Had Garland been confirmed, Trump would have only had 2 SC picks, at most. Since Gorsuch was the first choice, he would have taken the appointment Kavanaugh was given, and if Republicans felt RBG had to replaced with a woman, Coney Barrett would still have her appointment. Brett would not be on the SC, and we might possibly not have the same Dobbs decision because I’m not sure Roberts would have been willing to be the deciding vote to overturn Roe. Having 5 other justices vote to overturn settled law gave him cover.

To prove that either one of them lied, law enforcement would have to do more investigating.
…any investigating.

This. ANY investigating could have been helpful. But GOP just wanted to Rubber stamp Justice Weepy McBeerlover at warped speed.

Bull S. Do you think you could cry, scream, and accuse your interviewers of a conspiracy against you in a job interview? And get the job? LOL.
No. Putting aside the attempted rape allegations, he is temperamentally unfit to be on the Court. Period.

All he had to say was that he had some sympathy for Ford, and believed she believes her memories. She was clearly very effected and traumatized by what happened to her and he would never want his own daughters to endure such an event. BUT that he had no memory of having behaved in such a way. He didn’t remember that party and he didn’t remember her. And then pivot to all how he lives his life now.
I think they are both telling the truth.
His behavior was … inexplicable. Surely he was giving some guidance by professionals who deal in crisis PR. If he didn’t I question his judgement…. And if his JUDGEMENT is in question…
