The Kavanaugh Case: Sex, Lies, Privilege (and Plenty of Beer)
(“Contrary to the mantra that the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee have it in for Kavanaugh, they’ve largely let him off the hook on a number of critical issues, instead favoring theatrics.”
“While there’s substantial attention being paid to the serious charges of sexual assault by Kavanaugh, there’s been very little note that he is a putative war criminal. Specifically, recently released documents show that while Kavanaugh worked for the George W. Bush administration, one of the people he attempted to put on the judiciary was John Yoo, who authored many of the justifications for torture that came out of the Bush administration.&rdquo
Here's that 1-2 punch playing out again. [caitlinjohnstone.com]
While they have you trapped on a single issue yet avoid others as important, on purpose. Word is 2 votes are keeping this guy out at the moment. Might as well pick up and move to the right now. I have little doubt they let the FBI actually do or release anything of real meaning.
( Democrats on the panel wasted much of their time trying to get Kavanaugh to call for an FBI investigation. He refused to. If he was as innocent as he professed, why should he worry?)
Tactic! Pure tactic. Kavanaugh knew if he could interrupt and question the chairs long enough he could run them out of time. Avoid answering questions with simple rhetoric of no substance was another tactic. The one chair spent his entire 5 minutes to get an answer on the FBI question!?! Did not ask to stop the clock once as they argued over it. Compliance.

How he is qualified to be on the supreme court is a mystery other than his extreme right wing views will prevent any sane judgments for decades.

Totally prepped for this position. The question is how did he managed to get in this position. There's absolutely nothing in his back ground to make him special. But he's getting a major stamp of special from all the support he's getting. That's quite scary.
