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%.

So I'm reading that Lindsay Graham is angling for the Attorney General position. I'm also reading that Jeff Flake plans to be a lobbyist and you can't tick people off if you're going to lobby them. ugh. 

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.

I’ll guess that was supposed to say not* a huge fan.  That’s ok.  :cheers: for the note.

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.

If he did it, he is a worthless pile of crap. If he didn’t...wel then he is right about a smear campaign working.

You really think she's gone through all this effort to make things tough for the guy? And that she acted brilliantly to come across as credible? And that based on what we know of him... Kavanagh is a really sweet guy and something like this seems way too far out of character?

Come on, man.

What in my statement has you saying c’mon man? Wbat about that statement is wrong?

I had been thinking about something and then I read an article about it as well. What if both are telling the truth. Their truth. Entirely possible as he might not remember at all and that is why he is so defensive.

If that is true though, then he committed a crime. And yes, if we are talking opinion, I believe her. Already stated as much.  But I find it really annoying people discussing him being u hinged etc cause you all would be too if in his shoes and you didn’t do it. To expect a certain behavior from either the accuser or the accusee is pretty bad in this situation. Emotions are raw.

I agree with you. So many comments here and all over social media just got too annoying. 
I've been shocked at what I've seen, people who pretend to take the high ground act worse than those they oppose. I few pages ago on this thread I saw people saying they hope all republicans die. Seriously?
The attacks that are made just because you might believe the person they don't is ridiculous. 
I believe Dr Ford was telling her truth. I have questions how accurate it was, but I do believe she believed it to be the truth. I also found nothing new that added new credibility to the story, the same holes and questions are still there.
I hope no one ever looks at my high school yearbook and judges me as an adult on it. I wasn't popular with the girls in high school (or later in life for that matter) but friends still wrote sex jokes in there. I barely drank or did anything like that, but again, some friends had heir saying they thought were funny and would have you question that. To hold someone accountable for what a 16 or 17 year old boy write in a high school year book 40 years ago just seems like they are stretching.
One thing that I have no doubt of is the democrats completely used her for their gain. I don't think they helped her fabricate a story, but the way they played this was not to get to the truth, but they played it as a smear campaign, waited until as late as possible in the race, and that is blindingly obvious. The timing and the leak that Feinstein blamed on Dr. Ford and her friends was played perfectly for this purpose. I also have very little doubt the republicans would have done the same if they were in that position too.

Funny, nowhere in your comment did I hear about the holes in Kavanagh's story, or the lies.

Stop pretending you are an impartial opinion here.

That’s pretty funny cause I think most others are very much not impartial here...so why call out this poster? Oh cause they disagree with you.
