Bring the allegation to the committee when they were brought to her. Or at the very least not leak them |
A supreme court justice should remain non-partisan not only on the bench when making decisions but also in actions and behavior. I would say that Kavanagh did a disastrous job today of demonstrating that he is as much of a partisan animal as any politician sitting in that hearing or in office today.
To accuse Democrats of “a calculated and orchestrated political hit fueled with apparent pent-up anger about President Trump and the 2016 election.” He even suggested it was “revenge on behalf of the Clintons” — referring to his work on special counsel Kenneth Starr’s investigation of the Clinton administration in the 1990s. If this is indeed a job interview - then he didn't get the job. |
What's up with this dude's strange facial tick? He turns his nose up every thirty seconds like someone with a heroin habit. Regardless whether or not he assaulted the woman, he still comes off a giant prick.
And the lady looks old. Only 51 and upper-middle class? Must have been a tough life. |

No reason not to do it unless everyone in high school and college will say he drank vast amounts of alcohol. He is scared shitless of an fbi investigation. |
+1. Also an alum and didn’t realize that was my get out of jail free card. I thought that was pretty telling of his mentality—all is forgiven if you get into Yale! Okay to party so long as you get that admit letter! |

Let me be more specific. Conservative politicians. |

He is angry that he's being questioned. She wants an FBI investigation. He does not. |
Trump just tweeted full throated support. Game Over. Murkowski and Collins et al not going to swing.
Clarence Thomas playbook still works....yeah #metoo but this is a GOP senate (was Dem in 91) |
Agree! Such a double standard for women. So annoying. There have been men in Congress who are full on fossils. |
Excellent summary of today's proceedings. Everything else is just noise. |
It's not his place to call for one. The question was complete crap. The proper answer is what he responded with - it's not his decision to make; it's what the committee calls for. |
This is all you need to know. He is also strangely political after his Clinton comment. Thought he was going to scream Benghazi!! |
And I feel just like I did after the Anita Hill hearing. And my teenage DD is crying - she doesn't understand how they can put this man on the SC. |
