So “stare rape” is equivalent to attempted forcible rape? By the way, what’s the provenance of your pic?

I think this:

https://splinternews.com/kavanaugh-was- ... 1828855594

is an incredibly skewed hit piece meant to delegitimize Kavanaugh by a NYT reporter. Other than that my takeaway, thanks to your article, is this:

... Kavanaugh wrote in notes that he personally believed Foster’s death was a suicide


we can clearly see the author's motivation for writing this obvious politically-driven piece of crap article:

We already knew Kavanaugh poses an existential threat to Roe, is riding high on a torrent of support from conservative dark money donors, and uh, really, really does not want to answer questions about the Federalist Society. Now we know he’s good at taking directions from the worst fever swamps of the right as well.


It's clear to me if we can't get a rape accusation to stick this write is hoping Kavanaugh's supposed affinity for wingnut conspiracies, even though he doesn't believe in them, will. C'mon.

Let me get this straight: Kavanaugh pushes Starr to spend time and money investigating charges that have been investigated multiple times and dismissed and that he personally belies is false, and that’s just fine. But a woman who we have no evidence that she does not believe she was assaulted by Kavanaugh is lying trash? Dude: Kavanaugh pushing Starr to conduct an investigation based on claims he did not believe makes his case much worse. It’s the difference between bad judgement and a deliberate, dishonest attempt to smear the Clintons with a false claim.

Unbelievable! Did you even look at where the picture came from? Me.me???? A meme generator???? Hell, you don’t have the faintest idea whether that’s a real picture. And you didn’t care enough to check it out. I guess it’s okay when you’re just slandering people that piss you off.

But again, why do you equate stare rape with attempted forcible rape?

Probably the same exact way you reached deep into your retard portion of your brain and decided Kavanaugh's time as an independent counsel to Ken Starr was super relevant to this thread? Or a rape accusation? I dunno. Why are you so insecure about a registered Democrat who is currently a California professor teaching clinical psychology lying to take down a supreme court nominee? Or is that what you do? You just believe whatever someone says because they said it?

In case you missed it:

A registered Democrat who is currently a California professor teaching clinical psychology is making an unprovable 40-year-old sexual assault claim.

Gee. I wonder how a professor in clinical psychology would understand how this would take with her base?

eta: You do realize that months ago she scrubbed all of her social media sites that disclosed her political views? You do realize she's a pussyhat wearing Leftist?

C'mon. Don't be sucker just because you vote Democrat.

On the other hand, the Republicans are at least equally desperate to rush through the confirmation of a candidate for Supreme Court who will be sympathetic to granting Trump immunity from having to answer for any subpoena or indictment for illegal activity or obstruction of justice that seems almost sure to result from the ongoing investigation of him and his cronies, before the midterm election might result in Democratic majority in the Senate that might make confirmation of Kavanaugh impossible.

Besides that, I still think that even if he is innocent of the sexual misconduct accusation against him, there is more than ample justification to reject his Supreme Court nomination. Even without that allegation hanging over him, there are at least two Republican Senators who have serious doubts about his suitability for the office. That is enough to prevent confirmation.
No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

It’s relevant because you were falling all over the fainting couch at the thought that “the left” would engage in character assassination when there was a great example of Kavenaugh himself misusing the office of special prosecutor to do the same thing. And I’m sorry, but Democrat!Liar, California!Liar, and Professor!Liar. That’s just the very kind of character assassination you claim to be worried about.

Your personal biases are not evidence.

So you think that She first falsely mentioned this attempted rape 6 years ago, while in a family counseling session with a therapist, in the prescient knowledge that she could later use it to prevent the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court 6 years later, knowing that doing so would proabably result in the persecution and death threats to herself and family from hard right wingnuts?

Sorry, but I still find her far more credible than him.

I think this is polktical gamesmanship, and I'm absolutely astonished some here don't see it for what it is.

Repubs: You can testify on Monday.

Ford: Yeeeeeeah, that's not gonna work for me.

Lol. This is such a crap show. gmafb.
