If people had bothered to inform themselves and watch Susan Collins' full speech, which is available on youtube, the first fifteen minutes or so is her reading Kavanaugh's opinions on significant cases the Left worries about: gay rights, abortion, Affordable Care Act and dealing with a sitting President's issues should they come up. His decisions would please every liberal! I was quite surprised. It makes all the public hysteria utter nonsense over nothing.
Sad to see so many people who do not believe in the presumption of innocence and burden of proof, and these people will be sitting on juries.
The regressive crowd, wanting to send us back to the ages where the just the word of mouth is enough to charge and convict someone, and the legitimacy of that word depends on your rank in society.
What has been accomplished is ...
1. The demise of mob rule,
2. Guilty before proven innocent has been rejected.
3. The Dem narrative that you're sexist if you question the accounts of self-proclaimed survivors did not succeed.

Great post. Each of these things is on its own more important than the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.

You miss the Point: all that matters is abortion. Why?? Because abortion allows for unfettered sex. Which is actually ALL that matters to leftists (they worship it). Especially leftist women; womens lib and all that jazz.
So Pelosi has put in a FOIA for the documents relating to Kavanaugh’s confirmation and looks like Democrat leadership in the House is calling for impeachment proceedings if they get back the majority in the House. They really don’t know how to quit when they’re behind, do they?
Apparently, this is going to be posted all over. So let ME repeat:
Like the protesters, you're conflating the issue of women's safety and unproven, uncorroborated allegations against a man. They're two different issues.
I am male and the people on the "other side" in both these incidents were male but here goes:
In 6th Grade I was often the victim of being picked on (I hate the word "bullying"). To blunt my complaints the school called my parents and reported, totally falsely, that I had whacked a pick unloading his locker from behind. The result; mandated "Family Counseling";
In 9th Grade, in June 1972 I was chased by "Charlie" through the school corridors and barricaded myself behind doors I could hold closed. Then to comfort myself I went outside and petted a dog, and was bitten. Lousy day? It got worse. They were asked to find a private school for me. I refused to cooperate and the next year was better. They would have expelled me but had no grounds. I waited home that day in a house without power as advance rains of the remnants of Hurricane Agnes pounded and flooded the area. Depressing enough? My parents were asked to see the school principal the next day.
In both cases I had no opportunity to rebut the accusations. I still remember them to this day though I have a poor memory and an IQ of 79.
50-48 -- not exactly a resounding show of support.
Of course it's not. Dems have changed all the rules and nowadays wouldn't vote for Gandhi or God if he ran as a Republican.......
