No outrage here dude. Booker is suit. What is there to be outraged about. Outrage is reserved for those who matter.

Dr/Ms Ford did not accuse Judge Kavanaugh of rape. That requires penetration. Oral doesn't count per Willie #42. Get your facts straight.

They make a difference.

A Supreme court nominee is accused of rape 30 years ago and it is no big deal with Repubs. as they launch a smear campaign against the victim.


See the difference?

Yeah. The black out drunk. Dang.

Would you be okay with an FBI investigation to get to the bottom of it and ensure all possible witnesses are questioned?

Or are you okay with a "he said/she said" on Monday?

Trump fans are never good at analogies. And Al Franken stepped down for a photo of a joke that was in bad taste.

I actually agree with this... but then we get stuff like the Kavanaugh accusation. Can't have it both ways...

Sure.
After the nomination or after the elections, subject to an agreement that he will be nominated even if the dems will win.

Another oddity is Booker writing "With the ‘Top Gun’ slogan ringing in my head, I slowly reached for her breast" during an encounter on New Year's Eve 1984 when 'Top Gun' wasn't released until 1986.
I'm assuming he was thinking of the line "I feel the need..." I'm pretty sure that sentiment predates "Top Gun," but because it is so closely associated with the movie, I don't find it particularly remarkable that he would refer to it in those terms.

"I feel the need...the need for speed"?

If you were born in 1964 (as indicated by your username) I'll take your word for it that the slogan predates the movie since you've got a couple of years on me.

AND the part you conveniently forget, where a woman accused him of unwanted and forcefully kissing her during a comedy sketch.

Democrats declared admission is forgiveness. so essentially they proclaim an attempted rape is a more forgivable offense than a lie.


Knowing CB, he probably made that story up to highlight himself to some audience. Let's look for a pattern.


CB cooked his goose.
