I've read very little of this very lengthy thread, but I don't see how anyone who viewed the exchange between Kavanaugh and Senators Durbin and Klobuchar can say that this man has the demeanor and temperament to be a Supreme Court justice.
I'm wondering if the TV news sources that some of you depend on do not show the scenes less flattering to Kavaugh.
But then there are those who do not find fault with the way Trump presents himself. And do not see anything wrong with the way people behave at Trump's rallies.
Sorry but the “he was angry during his response to being accused of being a gang rapist” isn’t really fking
It's the core principle of the feminist #MeToo movement. They've been saying this all along, that it's crucial that women are believed no matter what so they'll not be afraid to come forward. They've never reconciled that with the rule of law and presumption of innocence in this country, and when asked the question they always say some men may get caught up in it but too bad.
This is why I've never been a fan of this movement, even though I'm a woman. And she's wrong. I think this is the moment the pendulum is moving back to the middle.
There never has been a middle; that's the problem. The pendulum has always swung in favor of the rapist. You understand that, yes?
2-5% of men are falsely accused. 75% of actual rapists get away with it.
When we FIND a middle - that'll be a good thing.
That said, the right was clamoring for Franken to step down for much less and now they are screaming for Keith Ellison to step down - with no proof. So it seems proof is necessary only for the 'other side".

Look, this whole thing is becoming really dangerous! If they decide to overturn Roe v. Wade, can you imagine what will happen in this country? Women will find terrible ways to have abortions and probably even die! Do conservatives really want that?
If the Supreme Court overturns Roe v Wade, that will not make abortion illegal. It will return the responsibility to the states. Each state will craft its own abortion law.

And, no matter what the state, wealthy Republican men will continue to be able to get their mistresses abortions. You can count on that.

You are in good company including former justice Stevens who stated he doesn't belong and I bet some of the justices feel the same way. You might have missed his opening statement "what ever goes around comes around" and he is supposed to be objective supreme court material. He has always been a partisan lawyer going back to his time with Ken Starr, he doesn't belong.

No one is overturning Roe v Wade, though it would be nice to have the decision in the hands of the state.

Stevens was one of the most politically motivated and biased judges ever to sit on the court.

Maybe. They could also rule that a fetus is a person with constitutional rights. Afterall, the nearly same bunch decided a corporation was human.
