SCOTUS under Trump

I just thought Boof was that girl-next-door in Teen Wolf.

Dang, I was a lame teenager.

As popularized in the song “Valley Girl” (coincidentally an early 1980s hit)…it’s anal sex.

Awww, he apologized to her. What a nice guy

[delirium]

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.

I agree fully. This is not a good look for a Supreme Court Justice. Unfortunately, it’s the type of behavior that his political base craves.

You might be thinking of Boofy the Vampire Slayer.

Now I’m depressed because it looks like they’re ramming this thing through. And it takes 67 Senators to remove a federal judge or SC Justice from office.

I’m stealing this from someone who already posted but:

Better that 10 guilty men get lifetime appointments to the Supreme Court than that one innocent man has to remain on the lowly appellate court.

“What we have are uncorroborated, unsubstantiated claims from his TEENAGE YEARS!”

Note how long it took Kavanaugh to answer no (and probably perjure himself) to the question about whether he ever got blackout drunk.

Armando, I need to send you some money for your travel fund to shit on senators’ graves.

It’s really sickening to me that this hearing has turned into Republican senators dressing down Democrats for playing dirty politics and ruining an honorable and good man. It’s as if the testimony this morning has been completely disregarded.

Looks like that binder of 65 women is reusable.

But of course! “Bros before…etc.” Especially Federalist Society-groomed privileged white guys who went to Ivy League schools.

[antlers]

I feel like Kavanaugh is angry because the process is forcing him to lie, and he is justifying it to himself in that what he is lying about should have no relevance to the confirmation decision.

I take back my question about Ben Sasse.

And every time they offer faux sympathy for Ford. Ugh. You assholes clearly don’t give half a shit about this woman.

[Papageno]

I can’t take this anymore, people. Just let me know when it’s over so I can get the highlights on NPR.

I feel like Kavanaugh is angry because the process is forcing him to lie, and he is justifying it to himself in that what he is lying about should have no relevance to the confirmation decision.

Note how when another Senator brought up the “loss of memory after drinking” question, he said he’d answered that (he didn’t want to repeat his obvious lie).
