We know he’s a liar and the people supporting him are liars. We can do absolutely nothing about it.

2718

2719

Also, it means the Supreme Court will have one confirmed liar on its bench until I die.

2720

That is my assessment, too.

2721
2722

Those are Kavanaugh’s people. The reaction is sadness for him.

2723

Oof. This thing is horrible to watch. Can’t believe I’ll be seeing this ass-hat on the supreme court for the rest of his (and mine, most likely) life.

I don’t care what circumstances you are under. if you’re that belligerent in a setting like this, if you can’t answer questions without accusing a senator of being a blackout drunk, you’ve got no place in a traffic court much less in the most influential position in the country.

2724

If we are able to turn the tide on the foreign influence, political cheating, gerrymandering, and have a huge political push in the opposite direction, maybe we can impeach him. It’s not impossible. The GOP and Kavanaugh are providing a lot of material here. Probably a pipe dream, in which case, our democracy truly is gone and we’re living the dystopian future we feared when Trump was elected.

2725

Yet another fight we may have lost in 2016 because of a fucking email server or ambivalence.

I want to throttle every last person who rolls their eyes and tells me elections don’t matter because “both sides are the same”.

2726

He is obviously lying… I mean we have the internet, you can google these things.

Devils Triangle is a threesome

Boofing is either anal sex or anally ingesting alcohol.

But he said it with indignation! So he must be telling the truth!

2727

Maybe he has told them they will never get the votes, so posture however you want to look good for Trump and your base.

2728
2729

Well, the Dems have 12 hours to get together a brochure about Kavanaugh’s bullshit and lies and distribute it as widely as they can.

2730

But was there more than one woman involved! Somehow that makes a difference.

2731

They also have some people who haven’t questioned him

2732

Sure, he’s lying. But you can’t hold up the Urban Dictionary as evidence in court.

2733

I’m Judge Kavanaugh’s age. You may all rest assured that in 1982, “Boofing” meant anal sex.

2734

Of course not - but you would reasonably expect to find some reference to Devils Triangle as a drinking game somewhere on the internet.

2735

He’s clearly lying. But these are not lies that you can easily pin someone down with even if you can reliably point at 1000 random sources on the internet.

2736

Right - I don’t disagree at all with your statement. I realize he can just say ‘well, we used the term to mean farting and a drinking game’

I just mean that this guy lies like crazy… and then lashes out to support his lies. Very scary to have him on the SCOTUS.
