Evidence indicates that Kavanaugh was a belligerent black out drunk at times.
…can you be clear on what it is exactly you want the FBI to investigate?
Can you see anyone in this thread calling for the FBI to investigate Kavanaugh on the basis of speculation from a single online source?
Who is calling for the “guilt by association” thing?
GOP hires woman to question Kavanaugh accuser, Dems demand her name
That certainly puts the shoe on the other foot.
just heard they are voting in committee Friday morning.
Did you read the discussion about the “panty flag” or elucidator’s complaints about the “no means yes” chant?
They are paying a woman to question another woman in a respectful and professional way.
Translation: Old white men are unqualified at questioning a woman in a respectful and professional way.
It certainly does. Senate Judiciary Republicans put woman in danger in the name of good optics.
Savvy. Not scared.
…Who is calling for the “guilt by association” thing?
I would hope that Kavanaugh adopts this approach during his hearing: “Mr. Chairman, even if I did wave my penis in the face of another student, that’s merely a matter of expression protected by the First Amendment! Why do my opponents hate free speech?”
He could call it the Ashtura defense.
I’ve responded to a great number of posts in this thread, and participated in a lot of pages. Are you capable of being more specific, or is this evasiveness by design?
Even this sounds like you’re backing off your previous claims:
Is the “ton” of evidence now down to just a few pounds? An ounce or two? A milligram?
“numerous occasions” vs “at times” <–those don’t sound like the same thing.
Which is it? “I’m not backing off that one bit” or maybe just a wee bit?
I was merely asking if you had. If you have not, I can go dig up a link to them, if you genuinely do not recall.
good.
…why would I be asking the question if I knew what on earth you were talking about?
It isn’t about whether or not “I recall” anything. As you point out: its a 70+ page thread. And your perception of a particular exchange may not match up with my perception of that exchange. Or I may not have read it at all.
So TLDR yes go dig them up.
Does anyone think the committee will vote against him? Better chance of being hit by lightning.
The Democrats should hire a prosecutor to question Judge Kavanaugh about lying to Congress. That would be interesting.
First, someone who drank as heavily and frequently as Kavanaugh claimed to, which is supported by the accounts of others, has definitely gotten black out drunk on numerous occasions. It’s just how binge drinking works. It is simply not possible for someone to have that history with alcohol and never been black out drunk. Support for this claim comes from Kavanaugh, Judge, Roche, Ford, Ramirez, and probably others.
With that in mind the Occcam’s Razor reading of the 2001 boat trip email is that Kavanaugh apologized for getting aggressive after losing a dice game even though he didn’t recall the incident is because he is, on occasion, a belligerent black out drunk. No other explanation comes close.
This post, as one particular example, struck me as trying to associate the guilt of DKE’s bad acts, some of them decades after Kavanaugh’s college years, with Kavanaugh.
Do you perceive it differently?
Certainly there is evidence that he was a heavy drinker, but did any of those people say Kavanaugh got “blackout drunk”? If not, I don’t see how it is “support for this claim”. If so, please quote their statements that you think support your “blackout drunk” on “numerous occasions” claim.
It’s certainly one plausible explanation, but not the only one. The emails don’t even mention or allude to drinking alcohol on the sailing trip. It’s certainly possible they did, but can you see how weak “it’s possible” evidence is?
Then what is he waiting for, fucking sweeps week? If he had something let’s hear it. Don’t wait for maximum camera exposure.
