Kavanaugh

Gern Blansten

We knew a conservative piece of shit was going to be on the SC.  At a minimum this will get more dem voters out in November.

I'm from the 80s and we used to call people like Brett #prepschoolpuke .

Poor Privileged Brett.   Women will NEVER vote for that.   EVER.  Stupid. 

Man, I wish you were right. But I've seen too many comments, from women, about how "real" victims don't act that way, or, it's not like she was raped, so what's the big deal? And I say this as a woman. :-(  

I have seen stats saying that women are fleeing the GOP, though (as they should!). I hope that trend continues.

Yeah I've got a facebook "friend" that's a woman that posts unbelievable shit...memes where Kavanaugh is like god, etc.

It always amazes me the women who support these kinds of men

Who here would leave their daughter, sister, wife, mother or female friend alone in a room with a bed, music, Kavanaugh and a case of beer?

I'm not surprised.  Flake has been the biggest piece of shit yet.  Reminds me of Sasse.

Graham has been unusually brown nosing tRump recently so that doesn't surprise me either.

Yeah, for some reason I was holding out hope for Flake. Misplaced hope, apparently. He's just another douche trying to play both sides. And agree about Lindsay. After finishing Woodward's new book Fear, I am not surprised by Graham's behavior. I didn't realize just how far up Trump's ass he is until I read that book.

I am, in all seriousness, worried about his wife.

I wouldn't leave him with a case of beer.

The fact he morphed into Trump yesterday is pretty pathetic....

he says his daughter prayed for Dr.Ford... prayed for what exactly?? ( no shade to his daughter, I just think he’s using a lil girl as a prop)  For the sick woman to get help for her dillusuons or for the sexual assault woman to get justice?

so much horseshit from the right

i feel I gotta keep up with what’s going on in the world, but I’m not gonna lie, it’s depressing as all hell

not because my Team isn’t in power( I was for Bernie) and realize the Dems aren’t all that great.... but because a younger generation will view this Shit as THE WAY to get ahead

lie, cheat, steal, commit treason... whatever it takes 

I don’t see too much light ahead of us... I hope I’m wrong

Seriously?  Who here would leave ANYONE in a room with a man they didn't know and beer and a bed and music?  No one.

That is the thing though, NO ONE here knows this man.  I hope when each of your time comes to be judged, it is not solely judged on what you did in high school.

According to Ted Cruz, doctor Ford should have kept a calendar and nothing could have been known about Kavanaugh prior to the hearings, thus any opposition prior to was a political hit job. The guys given multiple, over 10, speeches to the Heritage Foundation and his decisions from the bench are public record from day one. We’re not stupid Ted.

You know nothing about lobbying.   Everyone who leaves office that continues to work becomes a lobbyist one way or another. If you are in office, you piss people off.  So, if he pisses the right off, he'll lobby for the left.  And quite honestly, don't take all the public indignation as truly what these folks think on either side.  

Lobbying is about access more than influence.  He has all the access he needs whether he pisses people off or not.  If he has a client that needs it, Schumer is taking his call regardless of outcome here.  And, he has no idea who will be President in 2 or 6 years, and that's the ultimate access.

Love how you assume to know what other posters know or where and how they get their information. Wish I were as smart as you.

Ha, ha, ha. And I love how you struggle to have a conversation.  Here you go. I will clarify my comment to start that comment-

The allusion to Jeff Flake needing to do something in order to succeed at lobbying seems to indicate that you know very little about how that all works, so please let me give you some insight.  

Too funny.  Let me know if you need me to give you instructions on how to open a door.  Because, you don't simply open a door.  you have to take your arm and raise it so your hand is at the same level of the knob. You then open and close your fingers around that knob. You then twist your wrist with the necessary torque to turn the knob. you then pull the door open while moving your body slightly to the side of the opening.  And there, you have an open door. It's not as simple as me saying you open a door, so hope I've helped you out.  Good luck in future conversations.

Why are you making fun of a woman who at a young age got sexually assaulted and almost raped?

Why would a human being do that? What would be someones reason for sinking to such a low?

Why are you putting yourself in  the corner of someone who has been accused by five different women?

Aren't you a christian or something?

No evidence.  He said she said.

If only there was some sort of Investigating agency....

You just keep sinking lower and lower. How can you defend this worthless pile of crap?

If you recall, I have always been in defence of you and insisted to the masses that your perspective is an important one. Now, however, I need to tell you that your indefensible. You've gone far past the threshold of what is common decency (and common sense for that matter).

That's the shits.

I am good with that.  Your moral equivalency of what is decent doesn’t preclude an accused person from receiving a fair trial.  

I’m not good with a witch hunt, a no fly list, indefinite detention, or any other means of arriving at a guilty verdict without a proper amount of due process.  

There has been plenty of time to investigate this.  #moveon

No evidence other than the person who was assaulted

Allegedly.

Really, let’s be honest, not a single one of you gives a shit about this woman.  Your entire mission is to keep another Trump nominee off of the Supreme Court, at least admit that and retain some amount of integrity.  You’ll all forget her name by the end of next week after he gets confirmed.

Of course there isn’t anything to stop her from filing a proper police report to fully investigate this accusation.  If the evidence proves him guilty beyond a reasonable doubt then remove him from the Court.  I’d support that 100%.
