Cavanaugh Confirmation hearing: LIVE THREAD

[Mr KLC]

what I don't understand is how some of you are so certain that the gals are lying? that is really confusing. I would think if three credible women make the same charge that would make it more likely, not less likely.

but here is what I really don't understand, you are the same people that were absolutely positive that the Clintons were guilty of everything from dereliction of duty, lying, pedophilia, and even murder. those charges made sense to you people, but now these charges are ridiculous.

It wasn't crossing a line when the Clintons were hounded and investigated for years and years and years, and what were the results. The head inquisitor even commented there is nothing here. but that was okay, you people make a normal person weak in the fckin knees.

The timing of the matter. The fact that we already have a fake dossier on this president. I'm not even saying this is just democrats. It's the whole system altogether. Democrats aren't afraid to take credit for it, while some Republicans stand way back in the background and clap their hands asking the liberals to keep it going while they two-face you in front of the cameras. This is a classic political s---show that simpletons are just eating up.

I will admit. I was one of those simpletons in the early 90's. I was young and naive back then. The Republicans didn't care about those women. They were just trying to score points, and stop the other sides agenda like what is happening now. These women will disappear in the wind just like Anita Hill did when this is all said and done. They'll ask them to maybe come out for a cameo appearance when the next show is staged, but they will be out of sight and mind in 2-3 months.

We really need term limits for Congress. This is what you get when you have people in charge that want power and nothing else. They are willing to gravel as low as they can to keep their gravy train going. Like Kavanaugh said, this keeps people who want to serve from even considering giving it a try.

Conservatives made up their mind this was political the minute it came out. They have no real interest in hearing Dr Ford......for decades people have not come forward after sexual assaults because of a lot of reasons.....this won’t help.....Ford had to move, get death threats over this. These same people call Bill Clinton a rapist.

these are the same people that claim DT doesn't really lie, and when he does misrepresent the facts or even uses alternate facts that is perfectly okay because nobody gets hurt, the country is not hurting.

so let's us look at the facts, DT lies are okay, but both these gals are definitely lying. you know you are a professional woman with a good life and you are going to make false charges. tell me how crazy must you be to do that. this gal is not a crazy person, she has been seeing a psychiatrist about this issue for years. I would think anybody with a clear logical mind (no matter their political thought) would think there might be something to do this.

but no, he is definitely innocent and this gal is lying, it kinda reminds me of the women charging DT with assault. The first two they are lying, the next two they are lying, what is the number now? I think it is 16 right, they are all lying and DT is truthful. Dear Jesus above.

Comical listening to these two libs suck each other off lol. Nothing political at all about these accusations, nope none at all lmao.

Another great post with nothing to add. You’re a trumptard zombie. They could have video and you will just yell TDS.

What I'm certain is that aside from discovering repressed memories 35 years later (and did someone say Kavanaugh was gang raping at Yale?) there's been ZERO corroboration for any of these stories.

Take Ford. 1) She won't testify, that's telling. 2) The four others (including Kav) she put at the house party whose house it was supposedly all have zero idea what she's talking about - this includes her best friend.

She wiped clean 100% of her social media and every trace she has online because she knew she was lobbing a stink bomb, not a truth bomb.

All of this is ridiculous and we're being held hostage by a healthy minority that just wants to believe these stories are true.

ya it does remind us all actually. A month before the election, a dozen women all of a sudden decided to accuse Trump. Ya the gullible bought it but reasonable people saw it for what it was. BULLSHIT! Same here with the Judge.

Except they don't have video, or eye witnesses, hell one of the accusers just thinks it's him because her attorney told her so. Gimme a fn break already.

For guys like you and weirdo Dwight....it doesn’t matter....you’re trump lifers no matter what. It’s a cult.

Innocent until proven guilty! Except if you are a conservative or a judge nominated by a republican.

Many on the left automatically assumed the claims made by the women are 100% true before looking into them. It goes both ways. I have no idea what is true in these cases but being a "justice of the supreme court" is a powerful position and the allegations shouldn't be dismissed without being properly investigated.

[Mr KLC]

Kavanaugh and his wife doing an interview tonight. He claims he was a virgin all through high school, and through part of college.

I’m not sure either way. So far, I can’t figure out why she would want to ruin her life by making up an accusation that she discussed with a therapist in 2012. There should be an investigation but the president and republicans do not want that......But let’s see when they both testify.

If the leftwing activists manage to dislodge
Kavanaugh, they may rue the day they did. It will surely backfire.

Even the hardcore left don't believe these accusers, but if Kavanaugh is railroaded Trump
is counting his bullets to counter punch by putting forth the name of Amy Coney Barrett.
Barret may well have been Trump's first choice even ahead of Gorsuch but Trump's advisers
suggested Gorsuch was a safer choice.

I wonder what the Dems will drum up if that occurs. Look what they
came up with to combat the sweet summer breeze
objections to kavvy, compare that to the hurricane type venom they'll have to
stomach with Barrett. But she's a
woman not as easily railroaded in the year of women.

Barrett is more conservative too.

The funniest part of all this is Dems are going to end up with a MORE conservative judge.

Dems just don't know when to stop shooting off their toes.

[jts1207]

They'll play the racism card I promise.

[vitterd]

Have you ever considered that some republicans are racist, sexual abusers or no?

You talking about the Clintons?

[d2bets]

Who cares if he was a virgin. Nobody accused him of fukking them. And I notice he was very careful to emphasize sexual in sexual assault. Maybe he's arguing that he assaulted her, but it wasn't sexual. Good questions will probe further.

get help. seriously.

[Kermit]

So this was a revenge plot by Ford because Kavanaugh's mother ruled against Ford's parents in a court case?

Is this true?

Your grabbing at straws now. They picked the wrong card to railroad on this one. Should have tried to go the racist route. If he comes out virtuous in this testimony, this will be a big blow (no pun intended) to the Democrats.

Can this be confirmed or is it just bullshit?

[vitterd]

Nah, Kavanaugh mom only signed a motion in that case. The Ford family settled with the Bank in that case and Kavanaugh Mom signed the motion. She had no impact on the case.

[JIBBBY]

35 years ago and Kav was under age if it happened which it probably didn't.. Come on man!!!

I'm sure we all got a little wild and teen parties I know I did.. Never attacked a chick though against her drunken will.. Can't even try this as an adult if a crime was committed.. 2 minors both drunk at a party..

Jeff Flake vote you need to worry about..

People are opportunistic at a base level.... that explains a lot, doesn’t it. $$$$$$$

On another topic did you notice that Katz and Schiff have the same unbecoming identical eyes?

[JIBBBY]

Wrong thread post.. My bad..

Ummmm.. yes. Actually many libs are calling him a rapist. So by definition they are accusing him of fukking.

[chico2663]

but at yale in a club called and clits. I believe he wasn't a virgin like he claims. But i would hate for the shit i did as a kid brought back up. Had a paper route at age 12. Lady wouldn't pay me so i knew she was going out of town for a week. Day she left caught a couple of carp and put it in her mailbox. Yes she blamed me but couldn't prove it.

[chico2663]

one thing is he is lying his ass off about the age limit on beer. They changed the drinking age in 1982 to 19 and 1984 to 21. It was what reagan did he is lying about that. my brother was born in 1984 and bitched his ass off. If states didn't change he took away their road money

[JIBBBY]

How can you bring up an alleged crime with no witnesses in high school 35 years ago.. I can't believe the Republicans are even entertaining this alleged act that she can't even remember all the details, like house or how she got home.. This is silly...

[d2bets]

Ummmm.. yes. Actually many libs are calling him a rapist. So by definition they are accusing him of fukking.

I don't know what "libs" you are talking about, but she did not accuse him of rape. Frankly, what she described could arguable be just assault rather than sexual assault. That's why I found it odd that he specifically said that he had never sexually assaulted anyone rather than just saying he had never assaulted anyone.

[d2bets]

Her words say she believes him. Her face says otherwise.

Under aged minors 36 years ago.. COME ON D2?

Not one witness to it, no evidence that party even happened, he said she said.. 36 years ago.. How do you even bring that up now?

I hear that. But at the same time, if it did happen and you're her....how do you not bring it up.
