Had he not gotten angry at the accusations they'd be saying "if I got falsely accused of something like this I'd be mad as hell. Why isn't he angry? Someone with no human emotion is not fit to be a judge" or "He's not getting angry because he knows he's guilty".

It's literally "say anything" at this point.
Desperation.

Well said. I could not agree more.

Kavanaugh's emotions showed that he's 100% dedicated to his career, and his family.
Democrats are trying to ruin both.
He'll get the last laugh, and own Dem for the next 25+ years.

The fact remains, the Dems acted in a very disgusting way, and now the left wants to pretend that the bad actor here is Kavanaugh. No, he's not.

And by having him "step aside" it is absolutely not "for the good of the country" because it tells the scheming, lying Dems that they can continue these stupid games forever. It is absolutely the opposite of "good for the country".
LOL. IF ANY woman had behaved in that manner - she'd have been escorted out by the capitol police.

He was flat out YELLING at the American People and alternatively maudlin crying. I wonder how many beers he had before he came out on the floor.

Good LORD. Hillary testified for 11 hours after Republicans basically accused her of murdering, on purpose, 4 men and she held up a damn sight better than that.

Are you like, really young by any chance?

What's the all the Dr Ford is slutty and Dr Ford is nutty and all the victim bashing then? No one has been convicted of anything. I don't know what you are so worried about false allegations for anyway. I don't know one man who has been accused of that let alone falsely. I don't know any woman that has falsely accused a man.

Si, let's say evidence does come up that she is telling the truth. Are you going to have any remorse for running her down?

Just like clockwork. Do they pay you to share the new memo?

'In fact sometimes with several at one time. She wanted to know if that would be OK in our relationship,' he said. 'I asked her if this was just a fantasy of hers. She responded that she first tried sex with multiple guys while in high school and still liked it from time-to-time.'

'[b]ased on my direct experience with Julie, I do not believe her allegations against Mr. Kavanaugh,' he asserted.

Ketterer said that he is sensitive to the issue of sexual assault because he is himself a victim of of child molestation.

'I know what it’s like to be sexually assaulted and not be believed. I was 9 years old when it happened at the hands of my grandfather’s best friend,' his statement read.

I don''t know Swetnik at all and I find her very hard to believe.

so you swa one day of the hearings, and have made the judgement that kavanaugh does not have a proper judicial temperament. never mind that he has been slandered for no good reason other than to try and force him to withdraw his nomination by a bunch of demonrats whose only purpose right now is to get rid of trump because they lost in 2016.


personally given what kavanaugh has been through in the past couple of weeks, and what his family has been through, i dont blame him.

31 Lies and Counting

The right wing's position is, "We don't care about ethics, conduct, demeanor, or honesty on the court. We have no standards for selecting a candidate. All we care about is winning." The Republican Party decades ago stood for law and order and integrity. That has been completely abandoned.
