I was hoping something like this would happen. A legal ethics expert needs to step in. I think many want to speak up but are fearful what that would do to their careers.

I'm surprised that the Jesuit magazine did the right thing by withdrawing their support.

Kavanaugh did serious damage to the legal profession yesterday. He is the perfect example of how not to conduct yourself. His performance should be text book material in every law school.

I doubt he will ever be invited to teach anywhere ever again.




This is really so problematic. If political corruption and intimidation are working in such a way as to stop people in the profession from speaking up about its standards, we are DONE.

I remember when Scalia walked through Harvard Law School, the students did a clap protest. I don't think it mattered one bit to him.

He can barely live within his means , who’s going to pay for his lawyers ?? You’re a joke .


Before you call people dimwits, you might want to consider the law was changed in 1986, so for any crime in 1982, the statute of limitations was one year. I guess I am amused dimwits like you have no idea what you are talking about.

Probably as it looks like he’s voting him out of Committee. Party over country once again.

Excellent. He's listening to women of integrity, not the raging haters.

I doubt she will. How is it going to be for them in their social circles? Are most DC Republicans down with this?


She has no social or financial prospects outside of this circle she married into, so it's much easier for her to believe he is the wronged party.

Classic psychology.



Pretty much. Where would she go and what would she do? She not going to quit her country club or her kids private school (both of which her inlaws no doubt pay for.) She has no options.

Indeed. Sadly so.


Nobody publicly talked about assaults before. Now they do. I prefer the latter, because it's the only way we can push these men out of the top jobs!



I fully agree with you. I think the spectacle - and the likely result that this horrible man will be on the Supreme Court are two more ways we look more like someplace between Uganda and Uzbekistan as opposed to the US. I have never understood republicans excusing this stuff they can get their entire agenda done with pence instead of trump. But, no. They can also pick someone who has the same legal opinions as Kavanaugh without his incredible baggage. But no. It’s like they want to thumb their noses at the process and humiliate people. It’s the party of meanness. I’m sure someone will say the d’s Are to blame for xyz reasons. Good for them. We are a bitterly divided country. It did not have to be this way. Look at Canada - under Harper or Trudeau. Nothing like this.

Ford is a raging hater? Not even Fox commentators would go there.

He all but said so yesterday. He basically preemptively apologized.

What else?


I don’t have a dog in this specific fight ... I just want to remove legal drinking age from your list.
First, he was never talking about himself. He had in mind older classmates. Go back and read it
Second, he never said he drank legally (I mean, one day at age 21 he did.). Many times he said/implied that he drank at age 17. He wasn’t trying to hide anything.


Except no, he lied about it.

I’ll wait.


they need to be very careful how they are throwing the words job interview around. There are certain things that can't be asked in job interviews, no matter what the level.
