The Republicans are such liars.

We have a Fascist pig in the Oval Office and 1/3 of Americans are too dumb to understand the danger we are in. The only way Republicans got all the power they have was by suppressing millions of votes and ridiculous gerry-mandering. It's so much easier to win when you cheat like a dog but that does not mean the G.O.P. has anything near a mandate in America.

Kavanaugh does not seem able to imagine even the possibility that Democrats actually believe the women accusing him of sexual assault. He is consumed with paranoid, partisan rage.

Why Brett Kavanaugh

You know when you don't understand what the definition of a fascist is, it's hard to take anything you say seriously.

Nothing new provided by either testimony. Still he said she said. No corroboration, no evidence. Vocalising what she has previously written is worthless. The only thing proven has been the shameful manipulation of the accuser, the process and the nation by the Democratic party.

By the DISGUSTING Republican party, who still have not released over 400,000 records of their creep, lying nominee, who was so controversial it took 3 years for Bush to even get him confirmed to the District Court!
And everyone with any sense knows that circus act pulled by that JERK Graham, was because Kavanaugh's hearing was not going well.

Heee.. If the confirmation of Kavanaugh gets the left this upset God only knows how they will avoid a complete nervous breakdown if Trump appoints a replacement for the notorious RBG.

Dump your own koolaid. This entire side show is a partisan exercise and you know it.
Hillary and Bill Clinton did far worse than what Kavanaugh is accused of and as adults. Yet the left attacked Clinton's accusers.

If there was evidence that can prove Kavanaugh did it then bring it forward. If he did it I will be the first to cheer if they burn him at the stake.

So far what we have is a woman who can't seem to get her story straight, calling on witnesses that completely deny the event ever happened.

Then you have a bunch of me too's who also have no evidence.

This concerns me because we are destroying a man's name and career based upon here say. The people doing it had the opposite reaction when it was one of their own who was accused.

If this were being done to a black man the left would be screaming innocent until proven guilty. They would be screaming where is the proof? Where is the evidence? And rightly so. I would screaming with them.

I can't say as I blame him. His name and reputation are being destroyed for partisan politics. When the accusers present some evidence or proof I'll back the play. Until then, looks like a duck, quacks like a duck it is a duck. This is a partisan hatchet job.

So either they are all lying or she is. I have had people of the years very sincerely lie right to my face. So anything is possible.

And they are in my age range. I can't recall everyone I talked to or went on a date with that long ago. She could be confused.

Regarding Graham. Never seen him so animated. The whole russia thing with him sounds silly. Why would russia want the GOP to control the SCOTUS? What would that do for them?

Good analysis.

The man is NOT ENTITLED to serve on the Supreme Court, but he seems to act as if he is entitled to be approved as was shown by his angry outbursts.

Oh, I certainly do understand what fascism is. Apparently you do not.
