They are running from this thread to the Beto thread. Remember those cartoons where the group runs to one end of the ship, it tips, then they run to the other and that tips? That’s Dems with talking points. |

So here's the thing: I would bet that most people who are opposed to Kavanaugh would still want him impeached whether or not this article was ever published.
He should have never been confirmed. This article just reminded us of the atrocity that was his confirmation. You see we've been distracted by a million other things since then thanks to your game show host "president." I won't apologize. He should be impeached and should have never been nominated let alone confirmed. |
Exactly. This isn't anything new. |
For me, it wasn't really the HS & college behavior as much as how he handled it. And how little was done to investigate it. That, with other concerns, really makes him an unsuitable for a lifetime appointment as a SCOTUS justice. |

You know, Mollie Hemmingway pointed out this significant omission in the NYTimes story in her tweet early yesterday.
She had been given an advance copy of the upcoming book by the NYTimes reporters to review. That is how she knew about the omission. But, some posters here questioned Hemmingway's credibility and journalistic integrity. Glad to know she was vindicated. |
I think based on what happened to Dr. Ford receiving death threats and having to move her family several times that these women are afraid to say they remember anything happening. They don’t want to receive death threats like Dr. Ford has. |
Sure. That's it. That has to be it. Can't be that these stories simply are a bunch of bunk. |
What you think isn’t fact. The story has been corrected. You are all liars. |
And aren’t you happy that he is on a court that upholds laws giving you the right to your opinion |
Her book on the confirmation process is a must read. |
Amazing. Pretty much everything in your post is false. The claims were investigated. Quite thoroughly. And, found to have no credibility. And, his HS and college behavior? What exactly about his HS and college behavior? That he liked beer? That he kept a detailed calendar of his activities? |
Given that Blasey Ford likely made up her story and is a pathological liar it's hard to have sympathy for her. |
Agreed. It was excellent. And, concerning at the same time. I feel sorry for the next SCOTUS nominated by a Republican. Hope that person has very thick skin and an extremely supportive family and cadre of friends. |

The second witness says the woman (victim) may have been too inebriated at the time to recall the incident. This is precisely the type of thing trained investigators look at, using all available witnesses. So, again, the question is, who directed the FBI to stand down?
It really isn't an "omission" as Mollie would suggest, but rather an incomplete investigation. |

There is zero indication that these confirmation hearings were conducted with any integrity. Did Bart O'Beer sexually assault multiple women? MAYBE! A real investigation - as we deserved- would have been a key part of assuring Americans, especially women, that we should trust he did not; or if he did shove his penis into multiple women's bodies while they were all drunk, that he'd taken steps to reduce the chances he would continue that behavior now that he is on the highest court in the land.
The Republicans have degraded and undermined every institution we have in this country. |
