Brett Kavanaugh now under FBI investigation

[ElNono]

His social conservative cards are pretty strong based on how he has governed.

That's all Congress. The only thing he really wanted from Congress, which was the wall, he didn't get (yet).

His judicial nominations and executive orders give him strong social conservative standing.

MacGuffin?

White whale?

[Winehole23]

find another preppy New Englander to defend Kavanaugh. great plan.

[Winehole23]

perfect, in a way

[SnakeBoy]

That said, now the cat is out of the bag, and he's not really any less of a flat out liar than your average politico, so the question is how people will eventually react to that, vis a vis, whoever the Democrats put in front of him.

People are going to want the truth. They will pay more attention to Gil next time imho

[ElNono]

MacGuffin?

White whale?

Pretty much. He's clearly ensnared in his own narcissism (a criticism you could levy to some other politicos too). I forgot to mention tariffs as his own initiative that doesn't require Congress, yet to be seen to what degree of success/failure.

[ElNono]

Are their his though? I could definitely say tariffs, that's the kind of thing he would do. Immigration is probably another order that you could attribute to him.

You know what I mean. He ain't pulling the manufacturing jobs are coming back to 'Murica again.

(you would hope people aren't that dumb. again.)

Some of the responses in this thread truly astound me. How would any of you guys (or our husbands, fathers, brothers, sons) feel if you were alleged to attempted rape on so flimsy evidence and memories? This is purely political - 3 and a half decades later - it's preposterous. And I don't hear any sympathy for the hundreds of thousands of REAL evidence/rape kits sitting on shelves awaiting testing for lack of funding.

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ing concerned about all the untested rape kits but as soon as Kavanaugh is rammed through, nary a peep about it

When is pointing out the hypocrisy of so many of you whining about listening to/believing Ford while hundreds of thousands of rape kits (STILL) sit on shelves awaiting testing a crusade? You don't see me even COMMENT on (much less celebrate) Kavanaugh getting onto the SC.

Are you saying liberals need to focus on systematic failures in law enforcement?

Maybe you guys could cover this one.

I am saying that this entire debacle was political. And only, bou, out of all of you liberals would admit it. The feigned concern for Ford's vague memories of attempted rape is hypocritical compared to rape kits with real DNA evidence sitting on shelves.

Spurminator, my previous post was not specifically aimed at you. I should resist the baiting by others who don't want to move on.

Well yeah it was political but I don't think the concern was feigned. And I certainly don't think you're required to fix the rape kit issue before you can express concern for (alleged) assault victims.

This conservative sleight of hand where you question the sincerity of someone's concern by pointing to a different issue altogether really isn't very convincing, and it's way overplayed at this point. Try to mix in a few other fallacies to be less predictable.
