No big deal, but was still illegal, correct? So, Kav claiming he drank legal is technically a lie under oath. |
Brock Kavanaugh. That will forever be his nickname. |
So - the alcohol seeks these people out and they can’t escape? Even to rehab? And are all alcoholics holed up in a nice beach house? Please explain these life facts to us all. |
Sheldon Whitehouse (D) just made an excellent recap to the committee: ""I may be wrong, but I believed her... And I believe Kavanaugh dodged and dissembled, ranted and raved, filibustered and prevaricated. I did not find him credible... I don't believe 'The Devil's Triangle' is a drinking game, and I don't believe calling yourself a girl's 'alumnus' is being her friend. And I think drinking until you 'ralph' or fall out of the bus or don't remember the game or need to piece together your memory the next day is more consistent with Dr. Ford's and others' testimony than his own.

My son, a senior and a "white boy," attends one of the all-boys elite privates in the area. He watched Kavanaugh testify. He firmly believes that Kavanaugh is a common type type in his world, that is an entitled, arrogant, obnoxious, whiny brat boy who would believe his behavior, no matter what he does, is always okay because of who he is. Kavanaugh is disgusting. Thank God my son also says there are a dwindling number of boys like that at his school. |
+1. |
Nice distraction. We were talking about Kavanaugh, a man who has been accused of sexual violence by THREE different women. Stay focused. |
Do you understand genetically people can be prone to alcoholism and they end up dying of alcoholism and it’s harmful health consequences? You don’t see any homeless alcoholics or drug addicts, do you? Quit playing dumb. |
I wouldn’t raise my children (boy or girl) in those circles for all the money in the world. |
Change is coming, but slower than we had hoped. Good for your son. |
He lied about the meaning of the stuff in his yearbook. It does not look good for a federal judge to lie under oath, even about very small things, like definitions of things written in his high school yearbook. |
You’re supporting super-elitist Brett Kavanaugh who you think is entitled to a Supreme Court seat no matter without, and you want to accuse, with zero evidence, us of privilege? You funny, girl. ![]() |
You're just making stuff up about Ford and repeating falsehoods from the right wing media. She is credible. He is not. |
Ted Cruz is the poster boy for smarmy GOP men. |
I've never seen Sheldon Whitehouse before, but, as a lawyer, I was impressed with him yesterday. I bet he was a great lawyer. Very calm, clear questions, focused and didn't lose the question when the witness tried to wiggle. Unfortunately, the stupid 5 minute format made it impossible for him to complete his examination. It was really not a good system for uncovering the truth, and most of the R's just wasted time with their speechifying. (I thought Corey Booker also wasted his time.) Would have been a much more effective hearing if they'd split it into 1/2 hour segments and gave each side 1/2 hour, then flipped, and if the Rs had used the AZ prosecutor for all their questions, and the Ds had used some combination of Whitehouse, Harris and Klorbuchar, all of whom are talented trial attorneys who also come across as decent human beings. (Yes, I know that the Rs are calling Whitehouse a sleeze for asking the yearbook questions, but it had to be done, and it was good of him to take that one for the team.) |
