Russia/Ukraine?

Kavanaugh was credibly accused of sexual assault, and the 4500 tips the FBI received re his behavior were never investigated. Also. his whiny, erratic behavior suggested he doesn't have the self-discipline for the job. What was it about the Coney-Barrett hearings that offended you? She was what we used to call a "jet job" in that her resume was extremely thin and she was rocketed to the front of the line. But she was a darling of the Federalist Society, so...

But but, surely it’s just as credible to assume that the current nominee is somehow involved in the child pedo ring that Hillary and George Soros are running out of the nonexistent basement of a pizza parlour in dc? Isn’t it?

Perhaps the current nominee should have started crying and talked about beer.

I'm sure it seemed credible to everyone who wanted to believe it. It's too bad the accuser couldn't come up with a witness, a confidant she mentioned the event to or even a location where it occurred. True credibility does require a smidgen or two of evidence.

Oh, I wasn't so much offended as amused at the attempts to brand her as a religious fanatic intent on damaging women's freedom through mandated childbearing, complete with Handmaid's Tale cos-players hanging out on the steps of the Supreme Court.

I believe she is a religious fanatic of The Handmaid's Tale ilk, but then I'm disheartened that religious affiliation is still a factor, and that somehow we haven't had even one non-believer on the bench in my memory. As far as Kavanaugh is concerned, probably if Trump's FBI had done their job, there would be a lot more evidence of his unfitness.

At any rate, Judge Jackson has impeccable credentials, and exhibited near-superhuman restraint in the face of insulting Republican efforts to dirty her up.

It will be interesting to see if she behaves ethically as she wrote about when she was a younger lawyer or if the trappings of power cause her to cast her ethics aside and use her religious beliefs in decisions involving abortion and the death penalty.

I read this book last week and found it helpful:

Their obsession with pedophilia (not to mention cannibalism) is striking, to say the least.

To be fair we’re talking about republicans that don’t even have the reading comprehension skills necessary to understand a children’s book. They really didn’t stand much of a chance of success.
