    What evidence do you have he didn't do as alleged, besides speculation testimonials, reviews, and of course his denials.
    You don't know how the American system of justice works. A person is presumed innocent until proven guilty. You have it the other way around. With that awful approach, we could accuse you of murder and then say that it's up to you to prove you did not do it. What?? Besides, Dr. Ford's story just doesn't add up. Way too many holes. So once again, Trump derangement syndrome shows itself.

    Supporters of Obama always want to give him credit for everything. He had eight years. Trump, in less than two years, is blowing his doors off with the economy. The only thing I give Mr. Obama credit for is having the worst economic recovery from a recession in over a hundred years.

    Want to see examples of vitriol? Look at your own posts. You are far worse than Trump ever has been. You want civility? Let it start at your own doormat first. As you aptly put it, "Only a loony thinks they can dish it out and not get it back." Do you believe your own philosophy?

    You obviously don't know the American justice system as the presumption of innocents doesn't even apply to the political system. The rules of engagement and discourse are vastly different and almost anything goes especially smears and mudslinging and all kinds of trash talking that the dufus has shown to be so good at. Maybe it's you that are touched by this derangement syndrome if you can hold your nose and dismiss the holes in in your own position, but so easily point out the holes in the positions of others.

    Actually that's not a syndrome but pure hypocrisy.

    He can thank you guys for 6 years of obstruction after you took power, but again he deserves credit anyway. You're entitled to your opinion though, but your facts always seem to be biased.

    I'm far worse than the dufus? I don't think so, but I can see where you would think I'm uncivil, so I dare you to stop holding your nose and speak truth to power. That's more in line with my philosophy of never having to hold your nose and accept somebody's BS. If that makes me loony, so what? If you want to dish it back... COOL!

    No. I won't dish it back. Unlike you, I actually believe in the philosophy you stated.

    That's what I keep trying to get you guys to show me, the holes in my position, also known as evidence. You don't do it because you don't have any.

    Dear Lord I hope we have not sunk to such a pathetically low and immoral situation as that. Maybe you are happy with that, but many of us are not. You are plainly OK with attempting to destroy a man's career and reputation with "smears and mudslinging and all kinds of trash talking." Well, OK. That's on you, but don't try to act like the soul of honesty and charity as regards Dr. Ford. Liberals don't care about her, they are only using her for "smears and mudslinging". When you have no evidence, then that's what you have to do, at least in their minds.

    Kavanaugh hired his clerks .They are all women .
    The women include a current clerk, Kim Jackson, who graduated from Yale in 2017; Megan Lacy, who had been part of the team working on his nomination at the White House and served previously as counsel to Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley; Shannon Grammell, who clerked for Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson on the 4th Circuit; and Sara Nommensen, who worked in the Department of Justice and is a former student of Kavanaugh's at Harvard Law School. SCOTUS history .

    Neither do you. That's not what this is about, you are just stubborn, or STUCK.

    Requiring she have evidence to tell her truth was a disgusting display of callous disregard. Saying she was credible but WRONG or CONFUSED was a blatant act of LYING since all you did about it was RIG the investigation by truncating it's scope. Hey you got over, with a tissue to cover your own a$$, and continue to defend the BS!

    Like the dufus you still keep coming back by repeating crap. Or is it you are GLOATING? Wouldn't put that past you either.

    More vitriol. Wow. You are an angry man who has lost his sense of civility. Shame. Calm down a little.

    As for Dr. Ford, if you are going to make accusations, you have to have evidence to back them up. You don't have to have evidence to make an accusation, but you do need it if you want to be believed. She has none. It's just that simple. I said she was credible?? No, that was you. She has very little credibility because that would require (get ready for this) EVIDENCE! She has none, and neither do you. Maybe that's why you're so angry, because anger is the only thing you have left. No evidence. No facts. No logic. Nothing.

    update ;Brett Kavanaugh joined the court's four liberal jurists and Chief Justice Roberts in turning away a petition from Kansas and Louisiana seeking a ban on abortion providers . So much for the unfounded charges that he was going to overrule Roe . So much for the idea that the court was going to be packed with doctrinaire conservatives .

    Not the first time SCOTUS punted the ball back to the lower courts and decided not to hear the case. Nor will it be the last. Maybe they are waiting for a better case, or a better time, but whatever the case, it's too soon to holler one way or another. The jury is still out! (PUN)

    Now that Virginia's democratic Lt. Gov. Fairfax is the target of sexual abuse allegations, it will be interesting to see if all of you who called for Kavanaugh's head on a platter will do likewise with Fairfax.

    Actually, with Kavanaugh you said to believe the accuser above all else. But yeah, I would say investigate. And at least you are willing to say that much. That makes you the rarest of rare sightings... a dem who wants to see Fairfax investigated.

    I actually heard and saw Ms. Ford's testimony, I still found her exceedingly credible. I have no such observations of the Fairfax accuser at this time. She deserves to be heard. The state of Virginia seems to be in a chaotic mess at the moment.

    If you think Ford's vague and hazy memory was "exceedingly credible", then your head will explode if you read this woman's account. Unlike Ford, the details are in abundance. Fairfax does not deny the encounter, but claims it was consensual. But if I had to guess right now, I would say it will be out of the news within a week. Fairfax is a liberal dem, so he will get different treatment.

    Not so sure about that, as dems ZERO tolerance has already claimed liberal dems. Franken in Minnesota comes to mind. There's also the black face pranks pulled by the Gov and AG of Virginia may come into play.

    Zero tolerance alive and well in Demland
    Fairfax faces possible impeachment over his sexual assault allegations from the Virginia legislature. He is calling for an investigation and won't resign. Wonder if repubs will give him the same considerations as they did Kavanaugh.

    No evidence, just allegations which he denies. So much for the question of will dems serve his head on a platter like they did Kavanaugh. In this case though it won't just be dems since no way would repubs defend a dem right?
