Let hope they woern't doing it during sex!

I fully agree with at least one thing here. Regardless of the truth of Ms Ford's accusation, that shouldn't be the reason for blocking the Kavanaugh nomination. (Of course if it is shown that he is lying, then that's a different matter.) There are plenty of better reasons then the Ford...

Ha ha ha ha. Well done!

The preponderance of the evidence.

Here I will have to agree. The appearance is that of the party in charge having a pretended interest in fair and objective appraisal of a candidate's merits, while doing what they can to minimize the risk of not attaining their preordained objective. On the other hand, it seems that the party...

:cool: I've been reading Oscar Wilde lately. I suppose it may have had undue influence over me. Oscar Wilde describing Lord Henry's wife ... She laughed nervously as she spoke, and watched [Dorian Gray] with her vague forget-me-not eyes. She was a curious woman, whose dresses always looked as...

This is not so much about politics as it is about the natural breadth of our human psyche and the reality that deranged people can be charismatic and convincing enough that they can attract a surprisingly large following drawn from those most impressionable. We see that perfectly illustrated in...

as in for example "No Collusion" ;)

Aha. Just as I suspected would happen. And now, just as the Godfather, a.k.a. Donald Trump, has been advised by the family attorney, Tom Hagan, a.k.a. Rod Rosenstein, that release of the documents at this point would be unwise, and the Godfather has surprised by concurring,* a strange...

Thanks for turning this comment up. I haven't time at the moment, but I want to read it carefully. And also read again Kavanaugh's review article which I have read before. Rather than Kavanaughs opinion re indicting a president which is discussed in the Review Article, my primary concerns...

Removal of the president via the 25th Amendment isn't a coup any more than conviction of the president for high crimes and misdemeanors is a coup. Discussing removal of the President via the 25th Amendment isn't treason anymore that discussing removal of the President via impeachment and...

Thanks for reading my post. I appreciate it! And now you know where I stand on Kavanaugh and why. He's earned all of those praises. On paper he is well qualified, no question there. It is that tiny little bit of his record, and his complete reversal of opinion when working with Starr, that...

I listened to it in its entirety. It confirms my general impression that Mr. Kavanaugh is well liked. The most important testimony was from the woman, then girl, he knew in high school. She confirmed that a sober Brett Kavanaugh was a well mannered and nice young man. More valuable would have...

No of course not. All parties with direct knowledge need to be heard from. Just being present at the party is not a sufficient selector. There was one other person in the room. His exact words and cross examination are of critical importance. Not his words paraphrased or slightly altered. I...

This is a very important observation and question. This is why these kinds of accusations should not become press fodder, but unfortunately they do. Because of the special gravity attendant appointment for life to the supreme court, the accusation takes on additional significance, and it is...

When I start to read something like this I stop reading in the first line.* Do you think it is worth reading? There might even be some unbiased factiual information being reported but the first line gives a person no confidence at all that anything can be trusted to be factual and not taken...

I'm pleased your not in the Senate. She won't remember the date necessarily, nor even necessarily the month, she'll recall the year, when she thinks some about it or resorts to something she has written down, and the season most likely. It was 36 years ago, you say. Would you expect here to...

Of course I believe her. She hasn't claimed anything that is not believable and she has lots of reasons to not get involved and no reason or motive for making her story up. There is no reason to think she is mentally unbalanced. Kavanaugh, on the other hand, has a very strong reason to lie...

There are two things about this account that are not quite accurate, but in fairness the writer of this story may have written before additional information came available. Although there isn't yet direct corroboration from a witness, we have learned that the alleged victim did recount the...

Suck suck suck suck whooshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
