Kavanaugh must go.

[OldWiseGuy]

Based on what has been brought forth by a variety of witnesses I think Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to the SCOTUS should be withdrawn by Trump. It should not even proceed to a vote. He is irredeemably tainted by his own testimony and that of others.

Does guilt or innocence even matter anymore?

 

[Handmaid for Jesus]

SCOTUS should be beyond reproach in order to make untainted judgements of others. I agree that he should be withdrawn.

 

[Dan the deacon]

I disagree. What has happened to this judge was a political hit job because of his morals on abortion. Nothing else.

 

[Handmaid for Jesus]

I disagree. What has happened to this judge was a political hit job because of his morals on abortion. Nothing else.

He believes the President should be above the law. Do you believe this also?

 

[Phil 1:21]

Hopefully he will be confirmed soon so the alt-left can move on to their next manufactured outrage.

 

[Hank77]

I think he has lied several times under oath and not just in this last hearing. I think he lied about his knowledge of the memos. But we'll see what this investigation turns up.

After watching all of this for days, I have come to this conclusion. It is the only way to draw a final decision. I must say this - I was a math instructor and often taught logic in my general math classes, and I know this doesn't make me a final authority, but based on all the information, any other conclusion would be erroneous and illogical.

Judge Kavanaugh believes he is telling the truth. However, he is mistaken, and the reason for this is that he does not remember the sexual assault, because of a drunken state. It is very likely that he thinks he is truthful, when the facts given show that he is not.

Dr. Ford was telling the truth of what happened to her, without a doubt.

So in a nutshell. She is truthful. He thinks he is truthful, but facts show that he isn't

So, will he be confirmed. Yes.

It looks like this issue is dividing politicians and people straight down political lines. If it was a moral issue both sides would see more division in their own ranks. It's all political-nothing else.

SCOTUS should be beyond reproach in order to make untainted judgements of others. I agree that he should be withdrawn.

The Supreme Court Justices are supposed to be making judgments in accordance with the US Constitution, not "making judgments of others."

 

[Yekcidmij]

He believes the President should be above the law. Do you believe this also?

I think his position was more nuanced than that. Did you read the opinion itself?

 

[Newtheran]

It is SHAMEFUL that those who would claim the name of Christ would take political stances that support homosexuality and the murder of babies.

Given the current polarization in the US, lots of people see everything through the lens of their political tribe. Moral questions, historical questions, scientific questions. "Are humans causing the planet to get warmer?" is a purely factual, empirical question about physical reality, but people's answers align remarkably well with their political affiliation.

 

[archer75]

He has lied under oath. Even if he doesn't remember the assault. He has perjured himself.

[Sistrin]

He believes the President should be above the law. Do you believe this also?

Quote where Kavanaugh said that please.

 

[Sistrin]

So in a nutshell. She is truthful. He thinks he is truthful, but facts show that he isn't.

What facts are you referring to, please?

 

[Hank77]

It is SHAMEFUL that those who would claim the name of Christ would take political stances that support homosexuality and the murder of babies.

So because they are against Kavanaugh being nominated that means they are for abortion and homosexuality?
I think it's shameful to say such a thing. That's rather like Clinton's 'deplorables' statement.

Gorsuch is also pro-life and doesn't support homosexuality and I didn't have any objections to Gorsuch because I didn't find him to be a liar. Appears that Kavanaugh is willing to lie about little things that he doesn't need to lie about in order to be confirmed, so why do it?

 

[Newtheran]

...and what did he lie about? The accusations of the three women who came forward after the conclusion of his confirmation hearing were proven false.

 

[OldWiseGuy]

Kavanaugh was placed between a rock and a hard place. He didn't want to reveal the sex and drugs party culture that was/is pervasive in high school and college, and that he was part of. He was not only trying to protect his nomination, but his family, and possibly the nation, from this knowledge. In doing so he chose to lie.

 

[Ringo84]

Yeah, I actually agree with OldWise. It's not a bad thing to want to protect your family or your nomination, but if there are skeletons in your closet,
a) don't lie about it,
b) we need to know about them before you sit in such an important position for life
