One of things I never really talked about here but basically underlies my entire POV on Kavanaugh is this: guys like Chula voted a dude into office (Bill Clinton) who told us Juanita Broaddrick lied about being raped in 1978. Yet she's stuck by that story and never wavered. Despite that, she is not believed by a lot of people. So if the Dems and their loyal sheep don't believe her, why are they so surprised when the Republicans basically followed the playbook they wrote in the first place in regards to Ford and others?

Despite all that, I'm not somebody who would advocate Bill Clinton going to prison or that he didn't have any right to be President because of those allegations. Being able to corroborate evidence is important, and the recent FBI investigation didn't turn up anything that counteracted the statements others have given (which all amounted to "I don't remember being at a party like Ford described").

If people believe Kavanaugh is a rapist (which I don't think he is), then they should prove it. That's all it comes down to.

I’m not and don’t really care if he is but it’s a job interview not a trial. Still, just as well him as the next trump appointee. Ant, good point that Bill Clinton is probably a rapist. He’s also a right wing piece of ****.

There are enough reasons to dislike Kavanaugh based on his record as a judge, without even needing to delve into his personal affairs: https://fee.org/articles/the-constit...-supreme-court

Oh, he is. There's no "probably" about it.

Keira Knightley reveals she had mental breakdown and PTSD

Quote:

She said being followed by paparazzi made leaving the house "a sense of battle" every day.
Up to 20 photographers at a time would follow her and bait her for a reaction.
"If you [female stars] weren't breaking down in front of them, then it was worth their while to make you break down in front of them.
"So suddenly there was a level of violence, it felt, in the air. That is not a thing that anybody would react to well
This is in my news feed. I’ve never seen any of these movies or heard of this woman but for the life of me I don’t know why it’s legal to follow someone around 24/7 just because they’re a successful entertainer. If someone followed me for thirty minutes I’d call 911 and expect action. If the police said well we can’t do anything I would shoot the person. People might say oh no you wouldn’t you’d be afraid of prison or whatever. Believe me. I’d sacrifice everything before I’d let people follow me around all the time. I wouldn’t warn them or ****. I’d act extra nice to get really close act like nothing serious was up and shoot them dead point blank. I know it wouldn’t be worth it. I’m not saying anyone should do that.

Even the filming people **** like for youtube or whatever. The way people are just like we’re in public the law says I can film you. Follow me around with your phone out for any amount of time and see how that works out for you. “Don’t touch me! Don’t touch me!” Bitch, I’m not going to touch you; my ****ing hollow points are touching you. You’re dead, ****er.

Paparazzi are scum, no doubt about that.

She did pass a polygraph test. That's pretty concrete. I don't remember Kaganaugh taking a polygraph test. If I remember right Brett's friend Mark Judge has a little memoir or document bragging about that kind of behavior.

There's definitely more evidence on her side than his. Any undeniable proof that the events happened like a video or something like that isn't going to exist. This happened a long time ago and she never went to the police. But there are more than enough signs to convince me that he did it. Even more evidence that he's a terrible choice for the supreme court.

There’s no ****ing way she’s lying

I get the kavanaugh hate but not the Ford sympathy

He’s Trump’s choice. That alone is enough reason to wish him dead.

Do people really need to have their hate stoked? If you don’t want everyone associated with this administration to drop dead this very second eat some more Hate Wheaties or something.
