Kavanaugh's Beach Week organizing letter

[Hank77]

As the one senator already said he has a link to a website that was already setup in case Kav doesn't make the cut. Its for the next republican pick. A site that picks the next guy apart too.

Who is the Senator that said that?

 

[TLK Valentine]

Kinda of how like when he asked the one woman if she liked beer she changed topic. None of them would admit they do because it would make them look like hypocrites.

Actually, none of them would admit they do because it's their job to question him. Any lawyer or law enforcement officer worth his/her salt knows how important it is to keep control of the questioning...

Kavanaugh knew this, which is why he tried it.
The senators knew this, which is why they didn't fall for it.
You didn't know this, which is why you think it's clever.

No she didn't. Let this help you refresh your memory.

I apologize for the Youtube posters remark but there isn't any commentary on the video.

Happy Birthday, hope it's a good one.

 

[Chesterton]

Wow, I've never seen so much self-righteousness since ever.

Stop the presses! This just in! TEENAGE BOY LIKES GIRLS AND BEER!

 

[Colter]

okay...


I'm not sure you do, but again, okay.


well it's kind of hard to look at his "life long career in the law" when no one seems able to produce about 90% of his records. as for him being "as a father and good member of the community" I thought people weren't supposed to care about that sort of thing?


Not being a fan of Bill Clinton (never voted for him even once) I don't have to worry about that. But I see you can't seem to "defend" Judge Kavanaugh without bringing up someone else in a thread not about that person.


You mean like when someone is in a discussion about one thing and then someone tries to bring up something/someone who's not part of the discussion? Yeah, I can see how that might be annoying.

Happy berfday!

This thread is about a beach week letter.....sent 35 years ago.....hello? Is that ridiculousness lost on you????

I confess, in our flat at beach week we had the grain alcohol party served from a giant fishing cooler! Ironically we were the only house to get our deposit back!

 

[tulc]

Happy berfday! (snip)

thanks dude! I get to go to see my surgeon today, I guess it's what old people do to celebrate their birthdays!

She basically just ignored his question and made it about him.

 

[NothingIsImpossible]

You would jeopardize the integrity of the Supreme Court just to upset the liberals?

More shocking, you seem to think this is taking the high ground.

Petty vindictiveness and tit-for-tat politics isn't getting our country anywhere. It certainly isn't making us great again. Domestically and socially, the US is going headlong into it's worse period since the Civil War. I don't see things getting any better regardless of who wins what election. This problem of partisan division won't just go away.

The right doesn't look too much better from where I'm standing.

And the right has shown an equally dark and disturbing side since winning. They've all but abandoned any sense of decency, morality and standards in elected officials they once held and it shows with the breakdown of our social fabric.

That I can agree with. Both sides are off the rails. Which is why I am on neither side.

 

[Hank77]

She basically just ignored his question and made it about him.

Which is exactly what she should do, she is not the one that is being interviewed.

 

[camille70]

She basically just ignored his question and made it about him.

He was out of line and he knew it, which is why he later apologized. He was being nasty and confrontational, yet she was calm and polite throughout.

 

[DaisyDay]

She basically just ignored his question and made it about him.

It is about him. His interrupting and demanding the Senators answer his questions was completely out of order. Each Senator had only five minutes to ask questions and have them answered; instead of answering forthrightly, Bart used up their minutes complaining and obfuscating.

She basically just ignored his question and made it about him.

No, by turning the question back around, he tried to make it about her.

Either way, it’s his confirmation hearing. It’s supposed to be about him.

Thats the point. If someone is going to accuse me of something thats common, then I am going to turn the question around on them. As the saying goes for every finger you point, there are three pointing back at you.

The fact she didn't respond to his question shows she does drink beer and can't point fingers then. Shes a senator that drinks and thus can't question someone who wants to be a senator about drinking.

It would be like me doing meth and yelling at a friend whos doing meth about what a loser he is.

If that's how you'd act in a Senate confirmation hearing, then you're probably not qualified to sit on the supreme court either.

Part of the problem here, is that they were not "accusing" him, they were asking him as part of their investigation into his fitness to serve on the Supreme Court. This was not a conversation; this was a hearing about him.

He doesn't want to be a senator - he wants to be a Supreme Court Justice for the rest of his life. He not only wants the position, but apparently believes he's entitled to it as he waxes indignant at those who would question him, even though that is the very purpose of the hearing.Furthermore, the question was a lead-up to another question, not a stand-alone.

It would be like me doing meth and yelling at a friend whos doing meth about what a loser he is.

It was Kavanaugh who was doing the yelling, weeping and insulting not the senator. Think about that and who would be whom in your little scenario.

‘Unfathomable’: More than 2,400 law professors sign letter opposing Kavanaugh’s confirmation

The letter to the Senate cites two laws governing bias and recusal, noting, “Judges must step aside if they are at risk of being perceived as or of being unfair. …

“We have differing views about the other qualifications of Judge Kavanaugh,” they wrote. “But we are united, as professors of law and scholars of judicial institutions, in believing that Judge Kavanaugh did not display the impartiality and judicial temperament requisite to sit on the highest court of our land. "‘

Telling obvious lies about his background, yelling at senators, refusing to answer questions, and blaming his troubles on others is not appropriate behavior.”

Like I told someone else in another thread, give me your real name, your address, your social media accounts, your phone numbers...etc and I'll make a false accusation against you online. After tens of thousands of people start bullying you, your family, your friends and make death threats. We will see how you feel after one week.

She was not upset because she has a team around her all the time and had a relatively big group of crazy "fans" protecting everything she does online. And given this is likely just a political attack, she expected hate because she knew people would figure her out.

Her sad sounding voice and what not people say is something she only does for the media but doesn't sound like that when off camera. She even has nearly a million dollars donated to her on GoFundMe. Really makes me want to accuse someone of something too so I can get rich off of pity.

‘Unfathomable’: More than 2,400 law professors sign letter opposing Kavanaugh’s confirmation

Since this whole thing was a circus act to delay everything, they were just looking for any excuse and sticking to it to try and make sure he couldn't get nominated. They normally wouldn't care if a person made farts jokes, threw ice once or got drunk in the past. But again, since they have their agendas, they will. use anything to try and make sure he can't get nominated.

I say if he for someone reason doens't get the win tomorrow, Trump or the other republican senators should open an investigation on all senators and kick out anyone who also drinks, has thrown things in the past, has farted...etc. But the left of course would say thats not right because they know they may lose some people.

As for the signing by law professers I'd bet all my money that most, if not all, are democrats. So its why the letter is being ignored by people. Its biased. Its like asking 2,400 vegans if they believe we shouldn't kill animals and eat them because its inhumane.

Thankfully it looks like the vote is in his favor already so he will be put through and the rivers of salty tears will flow. I'm going to enjoy it. <3

Who are we talking about here? Kavanaugh or Ford?

I'm not sure how you can have protectors online, but Kavanaugh is a federal judge. He's eligible for a lot more security than a professor.

Her sad sounding voice and what not people say is something she only does for the media but doesn't sound like that when off camera. She even has nearly a million dollars donated to her on GoFundMe. Really makes me want to accuse someone of something too so I can get rich off of pity.

Yep.

I'd give you my name and address if I could get $600k out of it.

No, they wouldn't normally care, but his drunken behavior was the basis for a sexual assault allegation. Establishing that he did, in fact, drink heavily is part of establishing the veracity of the allegation. Lying about his drinking should be a disqualification.

And it wasn't a fart joke.

Clinton didn't get in trouble for his affair. He got in trouble for lying about it under oath.

As for the signing by law professers I'd bet all my money that most, if not all, are democrats.

If you did that, then you'd be broke.
