    no, we are not doing it justice, at all. it's beyond what you will expect.

    It's like SNL but it's neither Saturday nor night. I don't even know what the repurcussions from this will be but it's gonna sure be something

  2. Holy shit trump wouldn't say if did or didn't think the accusing women are liars. The woman reporter he picked is asking real questions and holding his feet to the fire to get a real answer. 

    How is this a thing that was allowed to happen

    The doesn't corroborate her story.....that corroborates that she told someone else the same story. lol

    Why would she lie about something like this in a couples therapy session six years ago just to potentially tank a supreme court nomination? If anything, the fact she talked about this in confidence to a therapist so long ago only adds to her credibility, not detracts from it.

    I think both parties look like dogshit in this.  The Republicans obviously want to get the seat filled before the midterms.  The Dems obviously want to delay it until after the midterms.  Kavanaugh the SC nominee, Ford his accuser of sexual assault and whatever happened while they were at that party 30+ years ago are incidental to the above concerns.  Throwing out the SC seat and politics, what has been produced that corroborates Ford's story that Kavanaugh sexually assaunted her?  What makes this more than a 30 year old he-said, she-said?

    Well for one, we have a factual basis to not believe Kavanaugh based on his history of lying and giving misleading testimony while under oath. Also known as perjury. On top of that, Ford has some corroborating circumstantial evidence which on its own isn't persuasive, but when considered with the rest of what's come out about Kavanaugh (booze hound, Renate alumnus, "I was a virgin through high school"), becomes more believable.

    Oh they're gonna look great asking a woman personal questions about whether she was sexually assaulted by Kavanaugh. The democrats will use those sound bites in every mid term election coming up. Even if she's not  be credible it'll still look like old white guys beating up on a helpless woman.  Of course they don't wanna have that on film... or video...or I phone...

    So you're saying you think it's a good thing for them to hide behind a hand-picked-definitely-neutral-trust-us prosecutor of sexual assaults to challenge an alleged victims claims? Rather than, oh I don't know, actually putting their face to their actions? That sure sounds like some alpha high energy shit right there.

    So you think that Russia is funding a lobbying effort through CRC directly related to the Kavanaugh appointment. The cap isn't a MAGA cap, its a dunce cap. 

    No, I'm saying that the group that's pushing kavanaugh with commercials also has experience pushing puppet figures and working with authoritarian leaders to subvert democratic norms.
