You have determined that all allegations against Kavanaugh were lies made up to sink him?


I don't know that they were lies or not. Just a bunch of accusations with no substance to back them up. There was also a lot of lying and exaggeration.

Yes, I think politics was a very large part of it.

Conservative tears? Living in denial?

What a joke. I'm not crying nor am I living in denial.

Kavanaugh is a SC Justice and all of the false accusations have been cast off.
You guys are a joke.

:)

Nice opinion piece, cool story bro.

There is no doubt that some allegations were discredited and that politicizing happened, including an exaggeration of their significance at the time. There is also no doubt that some accounts, if true, are deeply concerning.

Would you also agree that, if a moderate subset of allegations against Kavanaugh are true, then this represents a serious pattern of misconduct in the past and a misrepresentation and perjury in the present that readily disqualifies him?

If so, what standard of evidence to establish these accusations would you find reasonable?

You guys need to figure out when to quit. Kavanaugh is a supreme court justice, he isn't going to be impeached. You're fighting a battle that's already lost. All the impotent hand wringing on earth isn't going to change that. Time to move on.

Imagine if conservatives had taken advice like this when a black guy was elected president, dare to dream.

Trying to achieve the same level of incompetence as those you hate doesn't come across as well as you seem to think.

The GOP was very competent in their literal vow to obstruct. They just dont happen to be too competent with governing.

Who said anything about hate? I'm just Starbucking you with my mirror.

At this point they’re just showing off how much water they can carry.

I have to say your dogged insistence on defending the confirmation of a guy you appear to think perjured himself in an attempt to defend himself against sexual assault allegations is impressive.

Usually when someone lies under oath I tend to think they are probably lying about their denials as well. I guess I’m just crazy that way though.

If you don't care, go to some other thread. I think this is significant and worth discussing regardless of whether Kavanaugh could possible be removed. Of course, times do change, and a continued voice of resistance may eventually gain power. There was a time, for example, you could say:
"You guys need to figure out when to quit. Blacks are slaves. You aren't going to be freed. You're fighting a battle that's already lost. All the impotent hand wringing on earth isn't going to change that. Time to move on."
Personally, I think the world is much better off having so many fight a losing battle. Had there not been so many fighting without individual hope, there would probably be slavery today.

Appointing Kavanaugh is one thing. The way in which he literally got rammed through the process despite having the time and resources to process a thorough investigation into his being worthy of the job he was applying for is a whole 'nother story. This clearly and plainly indicates his appointment was a forgone conclusion no matter his qualifications/disqualifications other than his being an obedient serf to those that sat him on the bench of all benches.

The stench of it all will cling to Moscow Mitch's thin skin like stink on shit way after he departs the mortal world.

You're really comparing thousands held in bondage to your feelings about a judge?
You think chatting with other like minded people is some sort of resistance?
Where are the leaders of the democratic party? Why won't the top person in that party act? Why isn't there an impeachment proceeding going on right now? Can you even guess at the answer? What would stop the democrats from moving forward on this? What is the one thing they need to remove Kavanaugh from the bench? I'll give you a hint, it's the one thing that hasn't appeared in this thread.

Yes indeed.

I am not a Democrat.

All of our politicians at present are cowards. Each passing hour where pursuit of freedom is forsaken furthers the degradation of America. Not a true leader among them.

There will come a time. Or America will cease to exist. Or the world. Until then, we talk.

Context matters. Allow me to clarify for the slow minded.

As for the women that were accusing him of several vile acts. I do not know if they were lying or not as it was so long ago and the lack of supporting evidence make the accusations null IMO.

As for the various actor supporting these women and pressing them forward yes there was lots of lying involved. Just to throw out a big one would be Avenatti.

Sorry you can't follow along. I'll try and keep that in mind when I post.

Well for starters I didn't see anything that convinced me in the least during the hearings.

Second I don't care that he drank too much at high school / college parties. So did most kids.

What would convince me would have to be a LOT more substantial than a decades old rumour that nobody else seems to remember other than hearsay and rumour mill after the alleged incident.

You didn't answer any of those questions and instead expressed the basis on which you have concluded they aren't important to consider. I assert your assessments are flawed. I am asking if you would be willing to reexamine them from scratch.
