Only if criminal charges were brought up. Which he's past the statute of limitations. So, no.

No one would care.

We are all firmly entrenched in our positions on Team Red or Team Blue. No room for discussion or compromise. One wins or one loses. Period.

The next evidence will be the first evidence. That is an extremely important observation that opponents of Justice Kavanaugh have stubbornly refused to give proper respect to.

Seems to me you have absolutely no idea what "evidence" is.

We’re angry because the idiot in office has no respect for anyone that doesn’t agree with him. He mocks everything we stand for. He thrives on the suffering of others. He gaslights the country with so much misinformation. His supporters cheer him on as he destroys this country. We are the laughing stock around the world.

He could be changing policies like he is doing now while trying to unite us. Instead anything that is wrong is the fault of the Democratic Party. It is infuriating, no one holds this man accountable for his actions.

That's the plan they have - Impeach the President and Impeach Justice Kavanaugh.

They the Leftist Press, former TeamObama and all the dems and Leftists will be crying about " Republicans, Deplorables and President Trump are "tearing this Country apart with their incivility.


Of course these idjits really think "Impeachment Hearings" are not going to "tear this country apart'.
It's a SURE THING that is exactly what they WILL do if the Democrats win back the House.

Their Mob won't allow they to do otherwise. Some are even campaigning on it.

I agree. I do think the Center for Disease Control should study it, btw.

Liberals constantly tell us that we need to be lenient to criminals. Job applications shouldn’t ask about prior convictions. Black men are being rounded up and thrown in jail unjustly. Drug users should be left alone. Illegal aliens should be treated as citizens. Etc.

So I would say that even if the allegations could be proven, what a person did a a drunken teenager shouldn’t be held against them decades later.

I would agree, if he had said: "I don't remember doing this, but I was drinking heavily back in those days, so I can't say for certain that her claims are false. If I did assault her, then I am extremely sorry." Etc. But that is not what he did.

It seems possible that he was basically committing perjury in front of the Senate. And that is different than a 36 year old crime.

But, worst of all, the Senators rammed the confirmation through without a full FBI investigation. If there really wasn't any evidence to worry about, then why rush it so much? Why not give the FBI an extra week or two to follow up on all of the credible leads?

It's not perjury unless you can't prove he's lying. Basically committing perjury is the same as saying I'm basically a fish living on a reef.
