You should be concerned about this no matter on which side of the political spectrum you are.

If you don't - and are willing to employ a scorched earth policy to ALL out institutions to advance your political belief - disenfranchising half the country - this country is finished.


Kavanaugh needs to be above partisan politics if the Court is to retain any semblance of fairness and impartiality. Pretty much a joke these days, but they should at least try.

He's clearly shown pettiness and bias. Inadvertently, he has shown he is unfit for the SC - or any bench for that matter.
The underlined and the bolded directly contradict each other. The left has collectively gone insane. The "scorched earth" aspect of this whole nomination process has been entirely on the side of the democrats. Now in desperation your last refuge is to attack Kavanaugh for showing emotion in the face of the left's savage and merciless character assassination of him. It's bloody insane.

"He got mad at us when we tried to destroy him! He's unfit for office!" It's the most ridiculous thing I've heard in my life. You're either completely and willfully full of **** or you're as dumb as a box of rocks.

Do you disagree with Trump on how he handled that?

We'll see how you feel about voting for him in the primary. Somehow I doubt you'll be pulling that lever.

Does every vote have to involve a political motive? Freed from party pressures, maybe he's just voting his conscience.

So basically, the backup plan here was to deflect from the assault allegations to his conduct during the interview?

It's all starting to make a lot of sense now.

But in all fairness, they are just repeating what Schumer says on the Senate floor. Sometimes I wonder if they put out a memo with the talking points or the drones just repeat like a parrot.

How are you so sure he's innocent? I'm not ready to call it especially since there is going to be more information coming forward. If he is guilty then what would you call how he acted?

Senate Dems on Kavanaugh.


1. Oppose him almost unanimously from start.

2. Call him “evil.”

3. In hearings, virtually ignore his actual record on the bench.

4. Afterward, leak uncorroborated accusations of sex crimes.

5. When he fights back in anger, attack his “temperament.”






democrats are a joke!!!!! the ones that should resign from the Senate is that old mummy in makeup Feinstein......she held up to the letter for 2 months and at the last minute threw that to the public and outer Mrs. Ford on 37 years old uncorroborated accusations of sex crimes to slander and destroy the judge.




she is the one that should quit and a few other dirtbags in the Senate

Regardless of the outcome of the investigation, his should step aside because of his outrageous, unflattering judicial behavior and multiple accounts of untoward behaviors in his past. This to save his family humiliation and the rest of us...from the anger and partisan attitude he exhibited and might continue to exhibit on the Supreme Court.
You'll lose, he'll win.
