Official Brett Kavanaugh Thread, Part 2

He is just like all the privileged and entitled boys I went to high school with in the 1980's (not in the this area, but a prep school). And if anyone bought his made-up BS about the definitions in the yearbook and the reasons behind some of the "talk" then I have a bridge to sell you.

Trust me, the boys of this crowd will do anything to get what they believe is their's for the taking, including lying under oath. And they will rally around each other no matter what. He testified to the fact that he has been talking with his classmates from Georgetown Prep during this time. I'm more than confident that they came up with the lame excuses for him and made a vow to lie for him. Since there are valid questions about him lying previously under oath, why would anything think he isn't lying now?

+1. Especially since he stayed local, is so powerful and so close to more power. She's basically just some random woman in NoCal, to the 'in' clique.

Yeah, no, misogynist. She didn’t. And I’m not sure why you felt that the dig at her appearance was necessary. I suppose because women are mere objects to you (and yes I know you’re a woman).

my WASP, New Hampshire born spouse watched a few clips of Kavanaugh and said "what a d***" He does not come off as a good person to anyone who watches any of the hearings.

Until she implied that Leyland was mentally ill or drug addled with her cryptic comments about her health. That was the first time through all the testimony I thought Ford could be a cunning liar.

I got the impression Leyland had health problems and Ford was being discreet rather than specifying. I don't think she was implying mental health or addiction

It's too risky for our country to have someone with a drinking problem in a position so vulnerable to blackmail.

No, he had an audience of four. Flake, Corker, Murkowski and Collins. He already has Corker. Just 3 left.

Just you wait til November. Women will not forget.

Women have sons, brothers, and fathers, too. No woman wants her male family member destroyed over stuff like this.

Exactly. -A Woman

I looked at my beloved son today, and thought, if you ever so much as disrespect a woman -- let along sexually assault her -- you're toast. So no, most women aren't just sitting around holding up the patriarchy.

It would be interesting if you taught your children to not disrespect anyone regardless of gender...but we know you will not....

Who's "we"? And how do "we" know what others are doing with their own children?

She just told us what she was doing.

Women rarely lie about these things.... but you have had 200+ pages of this argument. You went in gunning for Kavanaugh and was never going to believe Ford unless there was video.

It doesn’t mean it happened and it doesn’t mean it was our newest supreme. Congratulations Brett! Make ‘em Pay!

It's interesting that he lies when there's no real reason to lie. Just ego. Reminds me of someone else....

Is the Russian troll machine working to support Bart?

I thought worst was when he passed the buck to his old buddy, basically, "I wasn't the drunk. HE was the drunk. A real mess, that guy!"

All I can say is the best quote in this entire 200+ thread:

“Today was like the Super Bowl for people living inside the Beltway!”

But this is not over. It’s not 1991 anymore.

Source? I heard the opposite.

Trolls post lies. Where is the link? Manchin is a no.

Don’t call me a troll. I’m crying my eyes out over this. This has been one of the worst days in the history of our country and I’m sick over this. Some in the press are reporting he could be a yes. I cited Elaine plott from the Atlantic as my source from my Twitter feed. I hope to god she is wrong. It is all speculation at this point but I’m hoping for the best and expecting the worst. This thread is awful and unhelpful.

Don't cry. Vote. Get others to vote. Let's nail their lily white old Republican a$$es to the walll.

I watched the hearing today. What, if anything, is being done about The other 2 accusers? Are they being ignored and a vote tomorrow?
