Kavanaugh is a Blatant Liar
By NCD on Tue, 09/25/2018 - 12:41pm |So you’re saying,” Ms. MacCallum interrupted, “that through all these years that are in question, you were a virgin?”
His face frozen — and his confirmation on the line — Judge Kavanaugh had little choice but to respond. “That’s correct,” he said......A handsome, intelligent, and Ivy-bound captain of the high school team who is the “treasurer” of the Keg City Club, attends alcohol-fueled beach parties at every opportunity, and brags about his group sexual conquests in his yearbook is not the profile of a 30-year-old virgin.
Kavanaugh is a showing that he is one thing for certain, and that is a liar.

Pure as the driven snow...

The Daddies are always pure as driven snow, Gudrun, daughter of Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler believed:
She was sure her father had done nothing wrong,” Tania Crasnianski, author of “The Children of Nazis” (2016), said in a telephone interview. “From her early 20s she said that she would write a book to explain what a great man he was, but there is no evidence that she did.”

America's Dad went to prison today. But he's a good man, funny, warm, beyond reproach. Aside from that rohypnol thing.
How many coaches sentenced in the last 5 years? All trustworthy - to a point.

Still boggles the mind, the duplicity, the hypocrisy, the darkness to the point of split personality. You are correct to point out the coach thing here, totally the same male authority figure problem: Sandusky, Nassar...
Gets one wondering if the structure of civilization is all strings and mirrors.
The judge refused an octagenarian legally blind man bail pending appeal and sent him straight to prison. Let me say this: I actually agree with the defense's argument that it is unlikely that he is able to re-offend at this point. I think the judge was thinking: there needs to be an important message for society about rule of law here, as he got away with not following rule of law because he was an authority figure, he's got to go to prison.
It follows: the type of people who are our judges are extra important authority figures. They are the ones who are our last defense against it all tumbling down. I'm one who likes to give mulligans for things like youthful indiscretions and the ability of people to change. But with judges, I am thinking: forget all that, they need to be beyond reproach, beyond any reasonable doubt, they hold the line against it all falling down.

Justice delayed is justice denied. Mr. Funnyman won't let the reaper walk him out of this one, even if 1 week. Better he's blind, a metaphor for these women drugged, incapacitated, sometimes somewhat aware but scared and unable to move. Got a joke for them now, Bill? Flash that wicked endearing smile.
Left out Dennis Hastert, Jordan (or who he was covering for), so many others. Entrusted with the young. Though if it's a boy a few decades back, we're aghast. A girl? Oh she grew up, got used to it, and men/boys have those hormones raging to think of... can't ruin their lives/career.
With Hastert however, or w Asia Argento, this blackmail thing can't be rewarded either. W Trump's victims and all these Hollywood cases, the offered hush up money. Other victims held it over their (suspected?) abuser's head. Who's the RNC guy Broidy who paid out $1million+ for an abortion, or abuse, or was it to cover for Trump instead? A rather huge racket. And to think the ones the FBI goes after are the Cisneros and Edwards cases, taking care of an affair, not a rape. Guess they're the easy ones. And yeah, some of Trump's fit this case). Should it have counted as a campaign contribution? Kinda yes, kinda no...

Here's a BINGO for me. It's the integrity stupids, not the youthful assault or not as the case may be:
This is an extended job interview. Big fail already, you lied one way or another. Supreme Court justices do not pander to a constituency nor even with intent to keep a marriage intact. (To be honest: presidents and other electeds can, precisely because they are elected and do not serve a lifetime, the people get to judge their spin and lies.)
As to the wife, artist Richard Prince, as much as I dislike much of his body of work, I've got to admit it probably has given him expertise at reading facial expressions. What he immediately saw in the Fox News interview: that she's probably far more disappointed that he's lying than problems about sexual activity:

You left out "Judas". [ Aw you've went to the finest school all right, Mr Lonely, but you know you only used to get juiced In it...]

Stand by your man... what's she gonna do, stay home baking cookies?
And let me guess - she's pretty goddamn disappointed about thise sexual activities. I don't think the ability of women to soldier on is infinite.

Well done!

If you were hiring someone and allegations of sexual abuse came up, you would have to investigate. The Senate needs to let the FBI look into the allegations. There is no reason to trust that Senate staffers would be unbiased.
Edit to add:
Democrats on the. Judiciary Committee think Kavanaugh should step down

Was watching Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell earlier this week, first time I've done so. O'Donnell said if you want to know what Brett Kavanaugh looks like when he's lying, just look at the video of the very first words out of his mouth at his initial post-nomination presser.
Brett Kavanaugh: "No president has ever consulted more widely or talked to more people from more backgrounds to seek input for a Supreme Court nomination." https://twitter.com/axios/status/1016490932324175874
