skinsmarydu Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 The TV commercial for Kavanaugh by Louisa Garry: She says she's not into politics..."I'm a teacher, I'm a coach"... How can you have those 2 responsibilities and not be driven to ensure (and in many cases, argue for) what you need? That's politics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilmer17 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 The Dems effed up with Bork. He died in 2012. That would have been an Obama pick up..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kavanaugh and Gorsuch are miles better than Bork so every American should be glad Dems didn't peer into the future and make that trade off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 The real eff up was letting the sex predator mime get confirmed. America owes Anita Hill an eternal apology. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tons of "outrage". Grassley effed up. He should have had them removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Why the quotes on outrage? You still don't believe that some people might have a problem with a large part of a nomination records being hidden? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visionary Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 (edited) I do wonder if Kavanaugh gets through and we later find out he was involved in some illegal/torture related stuff, if he will be impeached or end up resigning. Should be interesting. At this point it definitely seems like some big stuff is in there that some folks do not want to come out.

Should be interesting. I have to think that Trump knows everything he was and was not involved in. Or at least the folks who made the short list for him know. If something like that was in the background, they would have skipped him for one of the other right wing Jurists instead. It wouldnt be worth that risk.

Should be interesting. No chance he would resign and the GOP would never impeach over torture related issues. Unfortunately we just don't have a federal government that is holding anyone accountable these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatBuzz Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Watching the hearing and getting tired of the grandstanding. Your point has been made. If you want to keep repeating it, go talk to the press. Let's get on with the hearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldnt be worth that risk. If so, there would be no need to hide and suppress so many of his records. This isn't a strategy for the GOP, it's complicity.

There’s a lot of pressure from the left and even the middle to hold this up as long as possible and at least look like they did everything they could to stop it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch McConnell wanted Trump to go with 2 other judges cause of Kavanaugh's background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
