He's also written books on his teenage alcoholism and the orthodox Catholic sexual culture at Georgetown Prep. Google and you can find the story of how he lost his virginity after yet another drunken Georgetown Prep party.

He also didn’t deny that this happened.

"Kavanaugh’s classmate said of the woman’s allegation, 'I have no recollection of that.'"

It's possible he doesn't recall because he was drunk, but that in no way lets Kavanaugh off the hook.

Washington, DC—Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT), the senior member and former Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, released the following statement in response to reports of accusations made against Brett Kavanaugh, nominee for the United States Supreme Court:

“Brett Kavanaugh has done everything that’s been asked of him. He’s complied with six background checks over the last 25 years that have included interviews with friends, families, and even acquaintances, none of which have ever revealed an issue with his character. After over 30 hours of public hearing, his judicial record, qualifications, and understanding of the law stood unimpeachable. He participated in a closed hearing where Judiciary Committee members could ask any question they wanted. He answered more written questions than every previous Supreme Court nominee combined.

Judge Kavanaugh has had his words distorted and manipulated. He has been accused of having gambling problems, having financial problems, being hostile towards groups that he has actively fought for, and having bad taste in food. And he has answered questions fully and professionally, in a confirmation timeframe well within the norm for Supreme Court nominations.

I do not intend to allow Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation to be stalled because of an 11th hour accusation that Democrats did not see fit to raise for over a month. The Senator in the best position to determine the credibility of these accusations made the conscious decision not to take action on them, and the authorities to whom the accusations have been referred have decided not to take action either. Judge Kavanaugh has denied these accusations categorically, the only other potential witness has no recollection of the alleged event, and now 65 women who knew Brett in high school have come forward as witnesses of his strong character.

Every accuser deserves to be heard. But a process of verification is also necessary. In this case, the accusations were made in a private letter, which has been misrepresented in a number of media stories, from an accuser who has declined to go public and has asked for privacy. The letter sent to investigators has had her name redacted, meaning no further investigation could take place. The claims are wholly unverifiable, and come at the tail-end of a process that was already marred by ugly innuendo, dishonesty, and the nastiest form of our politics. The American people deserve much better from the Senate as an institution.”

Bravo, Sen. Hatch. Excellent statement.

I agree!

Kavanaugh would not have been my choice to sit on the Supreme court but this sort of vilification and outrageous charges to destroy an individual is downright destructive.

Feinstein should have surfaced this a long time ago if this was really an issue. At this point it is nothing more than an attempt to derail the nomination. I seriously doubt that it will work because it is so blatantly obvious. I am disappointed that Feinstein felt the need to bring this up because of the pressure she is facing in her reelection bid.

But this 11th hour character assassination reeks of desperation and only underscores why there are statutes of limitations in many states, if not Maryland, for sexual asssult. All we have here are unproven, anonymous allegations, made against a controversial nominee whom any number of left-wing partisans have made clear they will try to defeat at any cost and by any means at their disposal. Where was this accuser when Kavanaugh was appointed or nominated to other positions years ago?

It makes me sick that Democratic politicians have sunk to this level. I actually have more respect for Kavanaugh than I do for politicians of either party at this point. This country has become a total embarrassment.

+ a billion
It's reassuring to know there are still sane people out there.

+1 for both of you

+1 exactly, and I never thought she'd stoop this low.

What does being white have to do with it? Racist, much? And there is absolutely no evidence of him "committing an assault." Sorry to disappoint, but nothing is going to come of this.

I find it interesting that liberals consistently have the worst possible scenarios on the brain when it comes to sex. And men. The sordid stories you concoct are very telling.

He was 17 and the alleged behavior, while regrettable, stops well short of what reasonably ought to derail a nomination some 35 years later. If you disagree, please detail all the work you’ve been doing over the years to eliminate protections for juveniles to ensure minors are treated as adults by the judicial system.

I am a lawyer. And, the system is not fair if white boys get off for what black boys go to jail for. Plain and simple. Is that too hard a concept for your trumpian mind?

Is there a black man who has gone to jail for an anonymously alleged crime committed 30+ years ago, with no evidence or witnesses? Do tell!

Orrin Hatch was one of Clarence Thomas' chief defenders. He's nothing if not consistent in his support of sexual predators.

So now, in your twisted mind, Kavanaugh is a "sexual predator"? Because some anonymous person claims he did something 30 years ago? How about this: You're a sexual predator. Because I said so.

Only the biggest (functional) narcissists rise to the heights of power and wealth. Why do you so many degenerate CEOs are getting ousted by the MeToo movement? This is a defining trait of leaders’ characters.

Not only do you think it’s okay to spread rumors that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted someone in high school but now you want to spread rumors that it’s standard behavior for boys at like Landon and Prep to sexually assault girls. Good grief, you are sick. And no, I’m not associated with either of those schools in any way. And I’m a moderate registered Democrat who feels like she’s lost her party.

It’s not rumors, it is allaegations. Perhaps you should actually read the article.

“Allegations” made by some anonymous person who curiously has come out of the woodwork after 30 years. And it doesn’t even sound like she is alleging something illegal. A boy tried to kiss me in high school!!!

Yep. I remember something similar happening to me at that age. I'm not about to dredge it up now, 30 yrs. later. This is beyond idiotic.

Maybe you should. It sounds like you still have some open psychological wounds that haven't healed.

Interesting, because I hadn't given it much (if any) thought over the past 30 years. It would be very peculiar if I had.

And if the person who locked you in a room, pinned you down on a bed, played loud music to cover your screams, and held his hand over your mouth while his friend tried to take off your pants, was nominated to the Sup Ct? You'd be like, oh yeah, THAT guy once tried to rape me! Ha, funny running into him again after all this time.

Mmm, nope. If that behavior had actually occurred, I would have reported it at the time. You know, the way you're supposed to if someone assaults you. I certainly wouldn't wait 30 years to do so, thereby killing any shot of credibility.

Oh, I don't know. If you were falsely accused of sexual assault, I imagine you'd take it seriously too - and seriously defend yourself.

Locking her in a room, turning up the music so people outside can’t hear her protests, forcing her onto a bed and cover her mouth with his hands, isn’t trying to kiss her.

Let me ask this: had she been drinking? She said the others had been. If so, isn’t it logical to think she may be misremembering some emotional event that occurred THIRTY YEARS AGO?

Let me ask YOU this: Do you think that framing the analysis in that way (how short was her skirt? was she drunk?) is going to endear Republicans to women, while your pussy-grabbing president is in the WH?

Let’s just let drunk high school girls decide our national policies.

Let's just let men accused of sexual assault decide our national policies. Oh yeah, that's exactly what Republicans are doing.

I hope anyone who finds this unacceptable will vote in November. We cannot get these disgusting criminals out soon enough.

I will definitely be voting in November. But not for your candidates. Never again.

oh yeah, you were definitely a d diehard before now

No, I've never been a diehard anything. Independent, all the way. But voting for democrats is out of the question these days. Not interested in your lunacy.

Thought processes happen in mysterious ways. I hope this doesn't shake loose any traumatizing memories. You really should talk to a psychologist about it now that the memories are resurfacing. You clearly haven't moved past it, no matter how many times you try to will it away.
