Official Brett Kavanaugh Thread, Part 3

[Anonymous]

There is likely no way to prove the allegations. However, it is quite clear that Kavanaugh has lied repeatedly. It is quite clear he is operating from a politician’s playbook over concern for upholding the constitution with fair-mindedness and intellect. That is enough reason to find another candidate.

Yup. She was a Holton-Arms, Columbia Country Club girl. Now she (and her husband) own a $3 million house Palo Alto and a $1 million beach house in Santa Cruz.

Only poor women can be victims of sexual assault? I’m not sure I follow your argument.

A PP condemned Kavanaugh for his white privilege. I was pointing out that his accuser has led a life of white privilege, as well. That's all.

Somehow, I don't think she gets jobs by going in and yelling that she went to Holton and Stanford.

She doesn't have to yell it. She puts it in her job applications.

He was yelling because he is enraged by this false accusation and the Democrats' dirty tricks to take him down by humiliating and embarassing him. Ridicule is a big tactic employed by liberals.

I think he will be confirmed, but barely.

Election betting odds at 66.5% in favor of confirmation. At one point in the last couple of days it was nearly 85%. Dipped below 60% yesterday.

Let's see where it is at the end of the week, when the FBI reports - for the 7th time - that there is nothing in his background of concern.

You mean the severely restricted FBI report that is all over the news? Yep, let's see.

He was yelling because his privileged life has told him that this job is ‘his’ but it wasn’t going smoothly like he expected.
It was ridiculous and clueless. He appears to be someone who isn’t aware of the world around him and that makes him unqualified.

Exactly this.

My question: Why can't someone else, say the Montgomery police department, ask Safeway for those records?

Why can't Safeway volunteer those dates?

In my experience, if you are checking out an applicant for a job, you can call and any employer will give their dates of employment.

Why not call Safeway and ask? Can't anyone do this?

Where are you getting this information?

Yes, Ford should be a bit concerned since her dear friend could not corroborate her story.

Ford did everything she needed to do. She agonized over coming forward but bravely did it. She already knew that her friend didn’t remember that night, but didn’t let it stop her. She can move forward with a clear conscience.

She’s not expecting a top job in the country because of her privilege, dopus. It’s not really relevant.

He's not expecting a top job because of his privilege, either. He has an exemplary record and a top-flight education.

Really....wow do liberals condemn conservatives for their "privilege" and not rich liberals? Is it because....shudder.....he is that most hated of all, a white male?

See. You are completely missing the point. No one has a problem with white males. We hate entitled asshats. Unfortunately, there are a lot of white males acting like entitled asshates in 2018. See also: Trump, his sons, his daughter (yes, white women do it too), the R side of the Senate Judiciary Committee and Kavanaugh. I know plenty of white men who are great people. It’s just that Trump brought out the asshatedness of the borderline cases.

How hard is it for the Republicans to announce a new candidate tomorrow and get that person confirmed before mid-terms?

At stakes is the "separate sovereigns" exception to double jeopardy. If he (and the other 4 conservative judges) vote to overrule it, people given presidential pardons for federal crimes cannot be tried for that crime at the state level.

Trump can pardon the lot of them and they have nothing to fear from state's attorneys.

Hence the rush to get Kavanaugh on the court.

If this is successful, our republic and the rule of law is dead.

Good catch PP.

The stakes are so high in this fight.

No wonder the POTUS is lying, lying, lying, as usual.

Women must rise up and fight this menace. Vote the GOP out of power in the house and senate in November. Tie the GOP's hands for the rest of Dumpy's term. Oh, and impeach and remove him.

I think he was yelling because Trump told him to be tough and that is how he acts tough. He was at a point where he had to keep Trump on his side so that Trump does not withdraw the nomination, and Trump likes people who are belligerent. A FBI investigation into his background at this point seemly pointless. The Rs are just trying to provide cover for the few swing vote Senators in the hopes they will change their votes. If the Rs has 50 votes on Friday they would have held the floor vote on Saturday.

Property values in Palo Alto have skyrocketed. If they bought the house a decade ago they did not pay $3 million.

Whatever they paid, it was still quadruple the price that "regular" people could pay.

Not how it works in silicon valley, sorry. The price is what it is, and you pay it or you don't buy. She is a professor and presumably her husband is employed.

Like many academics, she also has outside employment. She has worked for a pharmaceutical company for example.

I am sure that if anything, with the crazy way real estate has appreciated in Palo Alto, that she is worth far more than Kavanaugh. I hope it bothers him. 'Cause I'm petty.

Many in DCUM-land are worth far more than Kavanaugh!! It wouldn't take much!! He has something like $30K in savings!! He can't make ends meet on his $220K salary!! Poor guy!!
