Yeah. You’re above the fray. No one is taking your tack seriously here. Try an alter and give it a shot again.

Agreed.

And to make it even worse is we all support a bunch of people that no longer truly have the average American's interest at heart and we are all stupid enough to cheer for them like it's a sporting event.

I am being a hypocrite here as I have done it. I refuse to do so moving forward.

I didn't even mean that as a point to criticize anyone for lack of much judicial experience. It was more just to the point that somehow Kavanaugh was clearly much more of a "partisan" pick than Ginsburg. That's laughable to anyone who actually knows anything about their backgrounds.

the RBG response is going to likely be a dishonest "well i wouldn't support her, now" comment

That’s what happens when you send up a quality nominee. Kavanaugh is a right wing political operative, not an exceptionally qualified jurist.

He says “RBG is a great candidate. That’s the difference.”



Easy to win arguments with your own imagination, isn’t it?

That's literally what you said in your response to me.

Yea and he wonders why he gets the responses he does. It's one thing to want to have an actual discussion, it's another to be completely dishonest and then criticize everyone for not taking you serious.

Grassley needs to cancel the hearings and vote Monday.


He can’t. They have all said they want to hear from Ford and ultimately set her testimony for this Thursday. If he had not caved and done that, but instead held to a vote on Monday, there would have been no New Yorker story today. Now, the Republicans are screwed. The tactic was OK if you believed no additional lies would come out, but who doubted that the Democrats and the press would not do this?

That certainly was the judgment of 97 senators. What’s your point?

He’s an ugly dude from rural Louisiana who is sucking the hind tit of life because of his own choices. His facial hair probably scares off most mating candidates. I would guess he’s spent a reasonable time on disability.

Bc your message is the same shite we hate about the progressive left, and you are always contrary just to be contrarian.

If you really are serious, you didn't get your money's worth in college.

He's pretty good about painting himself in a corner

I don't even have an opinion on Kavanaugh (thought he was milquetoast from the start) but the way this has played out is frightening. Unsubstantiated character assassinations will be the norm going forward

The bit about plaintiffs getting to organize their trials as if they are planning a bar mitzvah?

Interesting. Guess someone should alert the legal system of this standard.

Problem is that Ford has refused to testify.

Now that she won’t show up, no point in waiting on her to testify.

I posted this in another thread but it really belongs here as well.

It just seems to me that in the past even when congress was fighting for purely political reasons they had the decency to put on a bullshite facade and argue that it was for some cause.

But that facade seems to have disappeared in the last two years. And as funny as it sounds, that facade is what made American politics work. Dropping that facade and instead turning to a full embrace of identity politics coupled with complete white VS black; good VS evil view of political parties is a one way road to civil war.

And I am starting to fear that we are traveling down that road too far and too quickly to stop once we all realize it. And what is worse is that we may be traveling there completely on purpose by a pack of wolves leading the sheep to slaughter.

Hopefully they will all reap what they sow one day but I doubt it as long as Republican continue to be pussies and not dish it back.

Today signals more than ever that the swamp really does need to be drained and shame on anyone cheering for either side like it's a sports match. No one should be OK with what is happening and the way this has transpired.


Eight years of Republican vehemence, hatred, and political fighting with the last sitting President and now it's all about them being the problem?

And you have the nerve to whine and cry foul?

Care to count the number of ways Obama and the Democrats were attacked during the previous eighty years? Seems to be no less than with Trump. Wasn't there a hate filled faction trying to remove the last President by birth certificate? Isn't today much same - only from an opposing 180 degrees? What's the difference it's still one group of lunatics attacking the other?

Same with this hearing . . . or my Russia . . . and so on.

Remember when Anita Hill went on attack, was subsequently beat down, and Clarence Thomas was still railroaded in? Change the names and it's still presumed innocence that's taking the beating (his and hers). Much like that Russian tale where either side lines up ahead of the story and too few are willing to remained undecided on innocence-or-guilt before the day of reckoning. It's kind of like who's golfing too much?
