I know people like you in real life. That is why I believe these woman could be lying. They probably believe PARTY over MORALS. Taking one for the team. Its so pathetic.

LOL. Whatever. The seating of Gorsuch disproves your entire OP, but if you want to make it about me, have at it. It's understandable that you would try to deflect when you are proven to have no point.

Thank you, Exhibit 'A', for putting your ignorance, and your party's vulgarity in the front window for all of us to recognize.
Two words: Merrick Garland. The "honorable" GOP wouldn't even bring the nomination up for a vote. So, please spare me your, and the OP's "righteous indignation" It doesn't wash.

Clarence Thomas was, by a woman he did know, and who followed him from job to job for years praising him, before coming up with a new story at the last minute during his confirmation hearing, that he flatly denied and stated categorically never happened.

Presidential candidate Herman Cain got the same treatment, from a woman he also knew and had had business dealings with for years, before she came up with a new story at the last minute during his confirmation hearing, that he flatly denied and stated categorically never happened.

John Roberts didn't get that treatment. But shortly after his confirmation, he voted to approve the Obamacare mandate even after stating it was unconstitutional. He then added that if it were changed to pretend it was a tax (though the bill itself said the fines were "penalties" in dozens of places) it would be barely constitutional, though very much against American ideals and traditions... and then he announce HE was making that change (this is called "legislating from the bench") rather than sending it back to Congress as the Constitution required for them to change and re-vote on. And the Democrats never even told him "Thank You". Gorsuch also never got such treatment.

And now Brett Kavanaugh is also getting the same treatment as Thomas and Cain, though the Democrats had to dig back more than thirty years into his high school days, before finally finding a woman he didn't even know, who couldn't remember the time or place of whatever incident, and never said anything about it, but insists it was him. It was not brought up until the last minute during his confirmation hearing, which he flatly denied and stated categorically never happened.

Is it unreasonable to expect that, the next time a Republican president nominates a conservative to become a Supreme Court justice, That the questioning and interviews will go smoothly for months, with people from all sides praising him for his exceptional moral character and integrity... until the Democrats suddenly bring up a woman who never said a single bad thing about him or years, and perhaps didn't even know him at all... but suddenly changes her tune and accuses him of sexual harassment decades in his past? A charge not brought up until the last minute during his confirmation hearing, which he flatly denies and states categorically never happened?

Count on it.

Particularly when they have no other legitimate reason to deny the conservative future nominee, a seat on the bench.

Why would Democrats break such a successful pattern?

Future conservative nominees, buckle your seat belts. You now know exactly what will happen to you, by surprise, nearly at the end of your confirmation hearings. Whether you did anything to deserve it or not. Whether you have been a Boy Scout all your lives, who never so much as stepped on a crack in the sidewalk for the 50 years of your life.

You will be accused of rape, harassment, misconduct, and all the rest. And you and your family will have to go through months of agony trying to "prove a negative".

Count on it.

Oh, and the next Democratic nominees? You get a pass. Even if Bill Clinton or Keith Ellison are the next appointments by a future leftist President (if any).
Are you saying no one accused Roberts of misconduct because his vote on Obamacare was anticipated? Is that what you believe?

Neither Alito nor Gorsuch was accused of improper behavior. Does that fact affect your dire predictions?

Herman Cain was accused of sexual misconduct, but Rubio, Bush, Cruz, Paul, Kasich, Carson, etc. were not. What do you make of that?

This method will only work for so long. It will do real victims a disservice in the long term. Bad politics. Shame

Working off the Biden rule of 1992. No nominations for a lame duck in an election year, said Biden. McConnell simply paid Biden back for that.

This is why I have no problem whatsoever calling these recent left wing accusers liars, because left wingers don't give a damn about truth as long as it moves their agenda forward. ****em, ****em all.

Learned??? The Dems invented "borking" after smearing Judge Bork.

Every woman seeking higher office has been put on notice. If you ever went to Mardi Gras and "earned your bead" or flashed your boobs during a rock concert, you are now considered "unfit" for office. That is the new standard per the Democrats.
