Watch the Dems win the midterm - and we will have an 8 person SCOTUS for 2 years, since no Trump nominee will ever get through a Dem house. What a mess. — Rank Amateur
It is all just about the politics now. Political payback for Merrick Garland — Rank Amateur
I went to an elite, boys-only Catholic High School in Houston, and I wouldn't be the least surprised to learn of one my rich, entitled classmates doing what he is alleged to have done. Plus, the cliques stuck together, so it would be easy to get a friend to corroborate an alibi. — Relativist
What's striking is the gulf between the stories. Kavanaugh claims he was an innocent virgin who concentrated on Sunday School and his projects whereas the women claim he was a regular drunk, a sexual abuser and an accessory to gang rape. There's no way an investigation won't be able to show one of those two versions of his past to be utterly false. And I'm pretty sure at this point, Republicans in the know, know which one that is. — Baden
A sworn affidavit. Risks perjury and losing her security clearance if she’s found to be lying. — Michael
I think it'd probably be more important to locate the rapist and the various accomplices, as opposed to someone who supposedly was nearby. — Hanover
It seems you've concluded he's guilty, so why do we need to have the investigation? — Hanover
Ah yes, just like the old good times when Obama was President and had his candidates for SCOTUS and the GOP had Capitol Hill.sadly - I think we have moved past the point now where what actually happened matters anymore. The accusations have done enough damage that the dems will be successful in delaying confirmation until the mid terms - or force the GOP to push a questionable vote through. It is all just about the politics now. Political payback for Merrick Garland, Pelosi holds the info until the 11th hour. Now they will have an issue with the Thursday plan - add an aggressive fame seeking lawyer. Watch the Dems win the midterm - and we will have an 8 person SCOTUS for 2 years, since no Trump nominee will ever get through a Dem house. What a mess — Rank Amateur
And if Kavanaugh passes a lie detector test, you'd vote to confirm. — Hanover
. If lie detectors weren't bullshit, why do we have jurors? — Hanover
Willingly taking a lie detector test is probably more noteworthy though. — Maw
I hope eventually the apparent sexual abuser... — Baden
