Brett Kavanaugh - Page 3

Which alone, should be more than enough grounds to pause everything. This is a lifetime position. Once he is in, it is almost impossible to get him out. Because of that, if there is any serious question of a black mark on his record, the only appropriate responses are to either drop him, or investigate until the matter is settled.

In theory, it was set up that way to ensure that justices were not leashed to anyone. They could stay out of politics. The system was not designed for what we have now, a two-party system where one side could force a nomination through in spite of all opposition.

I have to say, I don't find it surprising at all, that the Republicans don't seem to care about the truth of this matter. They want a political majority in the Supreme Court, in this instance that's all they really care about.

All of that aside, I think he just proved himself unworthy of the seat. Even if all allegations against him are entirely false, this man is supposed to be seated on the highest court in this country. The position absolutely demands a very high level of self control and detachment. To put it bluntly, I did not see a judge at that table, I saw a whiny child complaining about being accused of wrongdoing. Spinning out conspiracy theories and attacking the Integrity of his accuser. Instead of making reasonable arguments in his defense.

I agree, his demeanor was not impartial and he seemed to be very political in his answers and assumptions that this was the democrats out to get him. That remark about the Clinton's revenge was laughable.

Some are saying that the senator being cornered by those women in the elevator is what led to the vote on condition. The thing is… are we going to have people cornering senators and shouting at them for each issue?

I wish these kinds of things would come up when the person is at a lower level. For instance Kavanaugh's bid as a federal judge should of had this brought up and not just because he wanted to be on the supreme court.

I think that has more to do with the timing of things. Prior to the #metoo movement, the number of such tales that recieved any kind of attention were very very low.

(The following temporarily assumes the accusation is true) So for decades, Ford had no real chance of justice. Then cases like hers suddenly become more socially acknowledged and at roughly the same time her attacker is about to reach a position where he'd be making rulings on laws concerning such matters that could remain in place for decades. I can definitely see how it could go from "I can't do anything" to "I must do something right now."

Brett Kavanaugh

But that is one of the problems that the movement is making - the targeted accused is only important when there is a possibility that they will be either rich or powerful, otherwise there is no need to say anything or accuse anyone.

Now Trump joins in by ordering an FBI investigation into Brett Kavanaugh (Which he could have done before) and while he is at it could he order one on himself? Oh, but I forget he is already president. Oh well, elections are coming. As for Brett Kavanaugh, I think he is as guilt as sin, but who am I, a no one with an opinion, but I've been watching from the sidelines for a long time and I am seeing an unraveling.

I believe a supreme court judge should be impartial and I do not see this emanating from Judge Brett Kavanaugh. He sounds more like a defense attorney for a criminal than a judge.
