Precisely. And Ford's allegations aside, Kavanaugh has shown himself to be a biased, temperamental, political hack - ill suited to the job on the SCOTUS. This is a sham. Nothing more than nominating a political operative onto the court for life by the Trump administration. Disgusting. May this mark the fall of the GOP forever. |
Drinking as a 17 year old in Montgomery County in 1982 = no big deal Lying about drinking illegally in 2018 as a SCOTUS nominee = no big deal if you are a republican. |
But it is actually ridiculous to have to answer something that he put in a high school yearbook. When we were in high school we referenced all sorts of risqué stuff that we never did or never would do just to appear ‘cool’. We were stupid. It show how GPrep was an unhealthy place at the time in that they appear to have encouraged and supported this kind of stupidity but it’s not really relevant today. It’s relevant if he lied about it, I guess, but there’s no way of knowing if he did. But not really - all anyone is asking about is a whether a crude reference in a yearbook means what they think it means and that’s basically just idle gossip. |
Better get to the pools. Don’t forget your sunscreen! |
We saw Ford yesterday, the actual victim. She kept her cool. He couldn’t. Why? |
Seems like some Jesuits think he needs to go:

I would beg for the FBI to investigate. I would want my name to be cleared. |
Did you behave similar to Kavanaugh in your youth? |
One Kavanaugh takes his office none of us will be entitled to our beliefs. The GOP wants to install a theocracy / plutocracy and eliminate by any means necessary any opposition. It's a turning point and one we will never recover from. I fear that liberals, women, people of color, non-Christians - we are not safe in this country anymore. |
Probably also not likely to be persuaded by/bond on “c’mon everyone drinks” arguments. Wants to be President. IDK what Flake will do. Probably flake, as usual. But there are reasons why he might decide a “no” vote is his best move. |
Whoops. Polls polls polls. Forget the sunscreen. learn the value of a hard kick in the balls. |
He has more to lose. And more to lie for. |
Hizono seems unhinged. |
We're talking about selecting one of the 9 individuals to our nation's highest court for a lifetime position. Not some idiot on DCUM. If Kavanaugh is the best the GOP can find, that's embarrassing. |
I pinched my nose and voted for a Democrat for the first time ever against Trump. While I will remain an Independent, I will never vote for a Republican again. |
