If you hate the hypocrisy then you are definitely not a Republican.

The blindly partisan, whether R or D all do this. I'll ask any Republican if they were just fine with Bill Clinton lying under oath? I've yet to hear anyone say no, but Kavanaugh lying, no problem, confirm him today!

What an idiotic statement. So then you are saying these 500 law professors at prestigious law schools are all "not very bright"?

Keep on with the absurd. It only makes the Democrats look worse. Because the sentiment I keep hearing about his anger from normal people is "Well, can you blame him?"

He IS a human and frankly, I buy absolutely nothing you or the Democrats are selling with this line because if he had remained calm, you would have called him a robot, or lacks empathy, or whatever they made up. So yeah, I'm calling a full loud BS on this crappy temperament argument.

They are correct.

Unfortunately, they don't have a vote. Trust me, 3 million extra people couldn't get Hillary elected as President. Republicans have stuck their neck out for Kavanaugh. WE're in scorched earth mode. Outside of him standing in the middle of Manhattan and shooting someone ala Trump, he will have enough votes to be confirmed.

Recall people saying that Clarence Thomas shouldn't be an SC justice and look what happened.

Elections have consequences, my friend. We wouldn't be talking about Kavanaugh if the Dems were smart enough to outwit the Republicans last election. And here we are.

Voting matters.

Every
Single
Vote
Counts.

That's cute that you think that.

Precisely. Or they are trying to hide their obvious bias and blame it on something else. Why won't they just come out and say it - that they're Democrats and oppose him because he's a conservative. Period. That's the truth and they keep trying to pretend otherwise. What utter BS.

Or they are political hacks. Thank you for pointing out my omission. Either way, not worth taking seriously. I will amend my original statement.

How many more innocent people are ruined?

The left is now overboard and doesn’t even take Bill Clinton, Weinstein etc as serious rapist/abusers.
Years of abuse is tolerated by the left and now the left wants good people to be convicted based on lies.

The biggest losers are the accused/innocent and the real victims of abuse

They'll all have the opportunity to voice their concerns with him directly once he's approved to the Supreme Court.

Really? When did they disclose their political leanings? Please, if you have some inside information, share.

But this is the first time we've ever seen him under pressure of being interrogated. And he didn't handle it well.
