LSHMEAB Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 15 minutes ago, LABillzFan said: Could you be more specific? Who caught him doing what in 06? What other lies has he told that I've missed. Honest question. Just curious because I have no idea what you're talking about. And please don't tell me to google it. Just use your own words. A WH staffer named Manuel Miranda stole emails from Leahy and other Senate Dems with the intent of advancing W's judicial nominees. Kavanaugh worked with this guy closely and has concocted about 3 dodgy stories about his knowledge of the emails over the years. This matter lead to a long delay in his appointment to the US Court of Appeals. There is no smoking gun proving he lied, but the evolving answers should lead even his most ardent supporters to question his honesty. The Dems realized it wasn't politically expedient, so they dropped it instead focusing their energy on a salacious 36 year old allegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or an intentional asshat here to slide everything to the absurd. But it's not me that thinks that. Or Tasker. It's your posts that prove you're one or the other of the above. Want to change the perception of your posts, be a better poster. I vote asshat. It better fits his inconsistency. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deranged Rhino Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Pergram has this one wrong. Kennedy said whichever staffer leaked Ford's identity to the press should hide in a bag. Not whoever told her to testify. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 1 hour ago, TakeYouToTasker said: After watching the leaders of the Democratic party attempt to intentionally destroy the lives of a good man and his family, actively work to undo the concept of innocent until proven guilty in our justice system, assert that men by their nature are evil rapists, and all of the rest, you're more motivated to vote for them? Says all anyone needs to know about you. Reminder: they just attempted to try a criminal case in a goddamn Senate committee hearing. 48 minutes ago, Deranged Rhino said: The !@#$? That's exactly what the Democrats tried to do. 37 minutes ago, Deranged Rhino said: Coons is such a bad actor. And his name is racist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the men that rot in jail after being convicted based on victim testimony. The innocence project has gotten quite a few of these guys off. https://www.amny.com/news/central-park-rape-wrongful-convictions-1.18439640 I am sympathetic as well but there has to be some kind of balance here. We can't just say survivors remember vividly what happen and are never wrong which I hear and read about. (There was an editorial in my local paper pretty much saying that this morning.) When there is evidence to prove that's not the case. But they should be treated better by our justice system and police. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is she a liar? Actually, this is what she said: "I learned about these yearbook pages only a few days ago," Dolphin said in a statement to the Times. "I don't know what 'Renate Alumnus' actually means. I can't begin to comprehend what goes through the minds of 17-year-old boys who write such things, but the insinuation is horrible, hurtful and simply untrue. I pray their daughters are never treated this way. I will have no further comment." https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/24/politics/new-york-times-kavanaugh-renate-high-school-yearbook/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deranged Rhino Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Just now, DC Tom said: Gee, thanks Booker. Considering you're one of the asshats who caused it to begin with. Think about this: the Democrats who are walking out are effectively protesting the principle of "innocent until proven guilty." Correct. Because prog-fascists who don't realize they're prog-fascists (though in this case, some of the senators know exactly what they are) are the most dangerous idiots out there in today's divisive political landscape.

So, the dems decided not to bring up your speculation about Kavanaugh's knowledge/participation in stolen emails and subsequently lying about them but chose to make asses of themselves over a high school yearbook? I just don't think there's much to your speculation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 ROGER KIMBALL: McCarthyist?

Foxx Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 (edited) you know what would be funny. say two Republicans miss the vote here. and later those asshat Democrats that refused to vote realize that had they only voted, they could have rejected the nomination.

Sometimes there's valid reasons. But walking out of a vote in a fit of pique because you can't get your way because your a great big !@#$tard who turned a confirmation into a political hatchet job should be grounds. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
