You people keep moving the goalpost. First it was about X but not enough proof so then it was about Y, but not enough proof, so now it's about Z.

Soon we'll hear he was a bed-wetter and therefore has psychological issues.

Obama admitted to the behavior. It did not try in trivialize it, or deny he did it. That's the difference.

I do.

The guy does not take BS sitting down. Why the hell should he?

If someone tried to smear you, somehow I do not think you would sustain a Mr. Spock demeanor.

That's a very good point, but their was obvious evidence that Obama was a drug, and alcohol abuser. He HAD to admit it. There isn't any of that with Kavanaugh.

What was the "obvious evidence" on Obama?

Full disclosure: I'm asking so we can compare it to Kavenaugh. I'd like to know that evidence, and see how Kavenaugh fares using the same standard. That's fair, isn't it?

Give us what you have on Obama. (other than "he admitted it", because you are citing the obvious evidence as reason he "had to" admit it, so I'm looking for what was there before he admitted it.)

That bothered me, too, but I am trying to stick with the issue raised in the original post. His partisan attitude is a whole other subject, and yes, I found it chilling.

I asked for actual evidence that he lied ......not a list of things that are lies in your opinion or GQs.

You .....and many on the left seem to be rather confused on what constitutes actual evidence.

At this point you don't have enough actual evidence to indict him for jaywalking .....much less anything else.

This is why he has to lie about the black-outs. The problem is that you cannot lie under oath, because it is against the law.
It doesn't guarantee blackouts. In fact, I know people who drank so much I would have thought they blacked out, but they remembered everything. Not everyone blacks out even though the same amount could cause you or me to black out. He said he never blacked out, and I believe him.

Kavanaugh is a national public figure, it's damn near impossible to win a slander case in this situation for him. Sitting on the SCOTUS for the next 35 or 40 years will be vindication enough.
