    Apart from the assault issue, the most revealing and disturbing thing to me in Thursday's hearing was Kavanaugh's strident partisanship that came pouring out during his tirade for all to see. "The Clinton lovers are just out for revenge because Hillary lost the election". That idea is in his head. He kept it in up to then so as not to hurt his chances, but in the heat of the moment, there it was. To me, the key to a good Supreme Court Justice is impartiality. None of them are purely impartial, but most try. We might as well put NotMyRealName on SCOTUS.

    You are correct. How many coaches of children have been found guilty of molesting the children they coach?
    Answer: too many to count!

    Why do you think they take those roles that let them get close to children without adults around?
    Not saying he's guilty of that with his girls BB team, but remember he's accused of sexual assault of a 15 year old girl.
    His only out is that he was only 17 at the time.

    The elitist Brock Turners (convicted student rapist) of the world turn into the elitist Brett Cavanaughs that then become judges that excuse the other Brock Turner rapists and overturn laws meant to protect women. You can expect this if Kavanaugh ever returns to the bench (let's hope not!)

    It's more important to protect your elite male friends than women. That is what the elite do.

    We have two sets of rules in America, one for the rich and powerful and the rest can go to hell as far as the elite are concerned.

    End Misogyny Now! Disbar Kavanaugh!

    He's a petulant , self entitled twerp who when the chips were down---reverted to the standard republican fall back position---Vast left wing conspiracy, the Clintons, anger over trumps election. Just couldn't help himself. "have you ever passed out from drinking?'--to Kavanaugh. His non reply, showing no respect-"have you?" This guy can be neutral? It's apparent the answer is a resounding NO
    The sad part is that when/if this guy is gone----they will find another one---just like him.

    So you are complicint in assuming he's a pedophile.

    Dont expect me to be shocked.

    If 6 FBI investigations are carried out that can't uncover his pedophile inclinations, then Trump is correct. The FBI is a fucked up institution that needs to be completely overhauled . He needs to fire whoever else is left that doesn't know how to be the FBI.

    How many high school coaches have passed 6 FBI background checks?

    These days they all take background checks, and they still get to coach because Children and WOMEN ARE AFRAID TO COME FORWARD BECAUSE OF ATTITUDES LIKE YOURS AND KAVANAUGH, and THE RUMP.

    Why do you think elites like Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas are elevated to such high positions? It's because "THEY" have something on them. Usually it's of such a "sensitive" personal nature, their deepest secret, usually a horrific crime or tendency (used be just being gay qualified, like Lindsey Graham.) Then "THEY" can hold it against you for the rest of your life, while they make you do what they want.

    It's called KOMPROMAT, and I'm guessing now that the Kremlin has not only got Kompromat on Trump, they've got it key US politicians now. Don't forget the RNC was also hacked by the Russians!

    This is how America has been run since the days of J. Edgar Hoover, if not b4 (that's as far back as I can remember). You wanna talk deep state...

    My theory is (and I have seen the wisdom of holding such a theory) that whatever a republican says--is usually the opposite of the truth. Including Kavanaugh. Hell of a way to have to look at things---but I don't see it any other way, in the main.

    We have no problem conducting investigations into 35 year old complaints against Catholic priests, we have no problem conducting endless investigations of the Clintons (remember Trump wants another one now, and he wants to lock her up), we have no problem delaying supreme court appointments until after an election if the candidate is a Democrat....and we have no problem assuming Democrats' guilt based on lies, fake news, and alt right sources (remember Hillary's child porno ring/pizza shop?)..................
    but if it's a Republican!!!!!.

    That's being unfair.

    Attitudes like mine? You might want to review. I stated more than once she told a credible believable story.

    Unfortunately with no follow in corroborating evidence to support her claim.

    That's the problematic part for her.

    You have no clue what my position is on sexual assault victims that report their events. This isn't some new thing that I have watched for a week.

    You also stated she was too mentally unfit to know who attacked her, and you also stated she was trying to ruin Kavanaugh's life. So forgive us for being confused by your responses.

    No I stated we don't know if she has been determined to mentally capable of recalling events with accuracy.

    If Judge is a recovering alcoholic he may not be a reliable witness. No matter what he says. Mental health capacity is a relevant issue.

    She can't remember circumstances present before the trauma occured. Males she forgot she was seeing for a few months completely outside the event. Maybe she can't recall facts in the same way.

    Trauma does a number on the mind of the victim. No one outcome applies to all. She tells a believable story.

    2 men came forward claiming they were the ones that assaulted her. They provided detailed accounts. Ford has no recollections of anyone else but Kavenaugh and Judge. She never gave an account of any more than them. Yet two men claimed they did it. They could totally be telling the truth. Or they could totally be well placed performers performing what they claim is their Civic duty.

    As to the one week time limit on the FBI investigation. I don't think there should be a time limit...wasn't one placed on the h. Clinton investigation, or investigations, I forget how many there were, but I realize it's a compromise.

    As to the results, I don't think anything that results from the investigation will change the minds of most Republicans, even if they product a hundred reliable witnesses.
    To paraphrase our fearless leader, "Brett Kavanaugh could rape somebody in the middle of 5th Avenue and not loose any Republican votes."

    But then again we only need to change a few minds, this isn't a trail after all.

    Has Kavanaugh been determined to be mentally capable of recalling events with accuracy?

    Maybe the two men are paid crisis actors. The crisis being Kavansugh may not get appointed.

    He's been a sitting judge for years with no known complaints of mental incapacity.

    Maybe they are paid. Maybe Ford also is. She has already accumulated 700K in GoFundMe money. With her attorneys testifying they are working Pro Bono. She should be able to get this behind her much better now.

    Kavenaugh didn't come forward with any assertions. He certainly can't be presumed guilty

    I don't think that it would be reasonable to just push a nominee through, with a sexual misconduct allegation. And he doesn't have just one allegation. I think the FBI investigation will be helpful, for both parties. The FBI will ask all parties a lot more probing questions asking for more details, than the Senate did.

    I want to elaborate on who "THEY" are. They are usually (but not always) the alumni of schools like Harvard and Yale who have participated in such debauchery themselves, but that's not the point, only the means of control. The point is they control each other thru secrets that they hold among themselves.

    Often FRAT boys are easily led into situations where they can be compromised, due to their relative innocence.
    You'll notice women are not usually targets of Kompromat, because they are harder to compromise as they're more often victims than perpetrators.
    So these FRAT secrets are what bind them together and enable whole blocks of politicians say, to walk in lockstep, even when it hurts their own constituents.

    And if not a FRAT, then a secret society or other such organization, which you must be sponsored to join, usually by a family member.

    This tight group control results in all sorts of corruption, which is fine with the group so long as their members profit.

    It's NO DIFFERENT than the Mafia, which often controls people thru secrets and compromise, and threats (usually to family members)

    And if you THINK NOT, just look at the threats that Ford and Kavanaugh got! They are both elitists and they're upsetting the apple cart by revealing secrets.
    Note that Kavanaugh has done his best to not reveal ANYTHING to harm others in his tight group, except his good friend Mark Judge who already revealed most of his personal secrets (or did he?)
