KevinG Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Good lord - now he's mocking Dr. Ford.He's the President of the United States of America and he's mocking a victim of sexual assault. Honestly this is why I think Kav is gonna be confirmed. As long as the president and the GOP do not treat it a serious thing it is easier for the Senators to vote for him.

remphish1 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Well looks like the republicans raped all of America with their sham fbi investigation. Wonder why they are trying to cram him through so quick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KevinG Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Wonder why they are trying to cram him through so quick Because having an open seat on the Supreme Court is a threat to our democracy and our long lived traditions. Just ask Merrick Garland. Kav is a shitty pick across the board. Be it his questionable finances, his record during the Bush Whitehouse, his thoughts on Presidential power, his history in High School and College, or his temperament. One of these things alone disqualify him from SCOTUS, and compounded together it is a pretty damning case against the man. But to the question you asked why are they ramming this through. The President and GOP need a Justice who will side with the President in the matters of presidential power and stop any subpoenas and indictments that may come out of the Mueller investigation. That is why they are pushing him to be confirmed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kidsmoke Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I am so angry right now I could spit nails. If only I could get close enough to spit them at Kavanaugh. Or McConnell. Or Lindsey Graham. Trust me, my aim would be true. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NoJ Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Thanks to a guilty verdict, Chicago wont (hopefully) burn this weekend. I was kinda sweating this decision, knowing how many murderous cops have gotten off the hook lately. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ih8music Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 That Collins speech was revolting. She can't have it both ways. The real lesson here is that women should always be believed when revealing past abuse, EXCEPT for when the accused is a republican SCOTUS nominee, in which case every missing detail disqualifies the entire claim. And when Roe is overturned (and it will be), the blame will lie at the feet of Collins, who is either incredibly naive or has been lying all along about protecting reproductive rights.

If Kavanaugh should somehow fail, Trump would nominate another judge with very similar views. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heartbreak Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Such a sad day for America. In some ways I feel like many of us are getting re-traumatized, like it's 2016 all over again. I mean, I grew up in CT, and everyone I knew from that Tri-state area (CT, NY & NJ) knew that this guy was a piece of shit thirty years ago. Now he's been president almost two fucking years, and look what's happening. I even name-checked him in my first novel (thinly disguising it as "Duncan Scrump") as an example of a rich person whose name would one day become a curse word - as in "Scrump You." And the first draft of that was in 1991! If the Dems win in November, I don't think it will make a dent now. As long as the right-wingers hold power in both the executive and judicial branches, Mueller and everyone else can say or do whatever they want, and it will be pardon city. Take the case all the way to the Supreme Court and...yep, Douchebag Donnie and his band of merry assholes will get away scot free. It's so demoralizing. Fuck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KevinG Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Am I disappointed by the results today, yes. Am I supposed, no. It would have taken Jesus descending from heaven and speaking against the nomination have it not go through. Heck that probably wouldn't have been enough. Let's not forget, POTUS has been accused by 16 women of sexual assualt; been accused of rape by his ex wife; implicated in a payoff from an affair with a porn star; and bragged about sexually assaulting women and teenagers. Judge Kav is a freaking choir boy compared to Trump. Once Trump was elected we knew a day like this would come, the court is now stacked right and will be for the most of our life lives. So again I have the day to the Jill Stein voters or the Bernie Bros who stayed home in 2016, fuck you. Don't whine and cry now, this did not have to happen. Now that it has the left has to vote. They have to turn out, and it sucks, but sometimes you have to pick the lesser of two evils and not always vote with someone who is 100% aligned with your ideals. Cause we all know how truly evil the GOP can be. We certainly can't allow their control of the legislature to continue. And RBG, don't you die, please God don't you die.

Winston Legthigh Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Holy Shit! I just got this e-mail from Trump: With only 25 DAYS UNTIL THE ELECTION, this is not the kind of warning I want to see… Republicans warn ‘green wave’ of Democratic cash could overwhelm House GOP candidates “One by one, Democrats running for the House have released jaw-dropping figures the past week…” (Washington Post) If the Democrat mob wins the people’s House, their behavior will be rewarded, their threats of violence will be validated, and their radical agenda will be fully empowered. With only 25 DAYS TO GO, please make a contribution of $25 to help us WIN the midterms against the liberal mob that is trying to harass and buy their way into power. We’ve already seen how far liberals have gone to try and sabotage our administration. We can only imagine what they’d do with legitimate power in our government. I need you to defend our agenda, our country, and our Presidency. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
