+1 Hope they ask him about this during his debate tonight with Beto. There will be quite the difference between the position of the two candidates.

Had he said those things, he could've seemed relatable, humble, professional and respectable. But he didn't say anything close to that. Instead, he went off on partisan rant, got defensive, was evasive in answering questions and confirmed for a lot people that he seems exactly like the type of person who could sexually assault a girl.

Exactly. It's this. He got angry, and lied about stupid s***, which undermines his overall credibility.

He needs to stop pretending that he cares about the experience of little girls.

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. "

Yes.

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.

I agree. The point is that instead of lying, he should've offered some explanation for why those quotes were in there in the first place. It's easy to figure out what those terms actually meant. It would be harder for people to question his motive 35 years ago in selecting those quotes.

And went off on the Ckintons again. Does anyone think an angry, RWNJ revenge-monster should be on the court?

The only way to settle this issue is to have a FBI investigation. It should not take long. The vote should be put on hold and the FBI investigation should start today and conclude by Wednesday of next week. Results should be presented immediately. The results can be discussed over the weekend and a vote can take place the following Monday (if he is found innocent as part of the investigation).

There, I fixed it.

Ted Cruz says it's important to assess the facts. Except that he and the GOP actually didn't have allow any witnesses to be present. Smarmy jerk.

+1! This is exactly what he should have done, and then this whole issue would have gone away. I think almost everyone did something in the past that they are not proud of, whether it be drink too much, bully someone, tell lies, etc. And then we grow up and realize we were wrong. Admitting as much makes you a responsible adult. Denying it makes you look like you have even more to hide.

Ted, you gelatinous creep. You "let her" tell her "story," and didn't call her a slut and liar. How magnanimous of you.

What else?

I don’t have a dog in this specific fight ... I just want to remove legal drinking age from your list.
First, he was never talking about himself. He had in mind older classmates. Go back and read it
Second, he never said he drank legally (I mean, one day at age 21 he did.). Many times he said/implied that he drank at age 17. He wasn’t trying to hide anything.

The legal drinking age in MD in 1982 was 18. It changed on July 1, 1982. If you were 18 before that date, perfectly legal. Drinking at 17 was not a big deal

No big deal, but was still illegal, correct? So, Kav claiming he drank legal is technically a lie under oath.

Parts of Chevy Chase are in DC, which had an 18 year old drinking age.
