The only thing I've learned from this thread is how delusional the Left is in their thinking. No amount of calm persuasive reasoning and unbiased display of facts will sway their hatred for Trump, Conservatives, and Republicans. They have been indoctrinated by the media and academia to oppose rational thought.
The only solution it seems is electro-shock therapy.

Of course you aren't buying it... that is your perspective.
I have found fault with both sides because there is fault to be found with both. I am not interested in debating which side is worse because it's utterly useless to do so. Not only that but there is a decent chance you are simply a troll.

again, it still depends on your perspective... it is not any truer that the Democrats are moving away from the rule of law towards mob rule than it is to say that the Republicans are.
Your comment does no more to help the situation than someone who says you should move to some 'red' area and build a wall around yourself.
People have to realize that for this to work there needs to compromise. You can not have everything your way in life. There are trade offs everywhere. Democracy is supposed to be about that but we have moved far far away from it.
And, yes, it's sad.
What is sad was last week was all about law or mob rule. If you wish to characterize it differently go ahead. Your view then would do no more to help the situation than mine.
Oddly, I did not comment specifically on 'last week'... and didn't characterize it one way or the other.
I am, and have been saying, there is plenty of fault from both sides to go around. And only by starting from that perspective can this situation be resolved in everyone's best interest.
You on the other hand want to call it mob rule...
Sadly you sound as bad as someone like Bill Maher does coming from his completely opposite perspective.
Neither is helping.

I am talking about last week and to view it any other way would be ignoring the facts of the case.

- believe Ford based on no evidence, in which case they are dangerous, or
- don't necessarily believe her but think it's fine to serve the greater good, in which case they are evil.
I love pretend "moderates" who quote right wing talking points. If that is all you can conclude, you have a very limited intellect.
This false narrative about "no evidence". Dr. Ford WAS the evidence and I choose to believe her. Kavanaugh did not present a SINGLE fact which which completely exhornorated him. The best he could do is present a bunch of people who don't remember. Maybe that is good enough for you, it certainly was good enough for the GOP but for a lifetime appointment-nah.
Especially when you couple it with Kav's
- lying,
-crocodile tears
- trading in conspiracy theories,
-uncontrolled rage
- his behavior under Ken Starr (i.e. illegally leaking to the press which is only offensive if the Dems reportedly do it).
-the hiding of his documents
-his mysterious credit card payoff
No one was advocating Kav being escorted off to jail..but simply he wasn't going to be on SCOTUS. He would still remain an appeals court judge.
and I would remind the sanctimonious conservative that your rage has a body count...Charlottesville, Shooting up newpapers for starters
Of course your comment is bs.

The detractors argue either that B.K. probably has rape offenses in his past, or merely that he is not Supreme Court material.
But, I tend to agree with the supporters that neither is of legal import here.
Trump has made pretty clear that he values loyalty over intelligence or competence, and given his general amorality and problems in business, I think these are pretty sane choices for him to make.
Trump can nominate any hack he likes, and there is nothing illegal in that. The Republicans can confirm whomever he nominates, no matter whether the candidate is a good person or not, no matter whether the candidate is competent, or outstanding, or sub-par. It is legal for them to do these things.
Democrats insist that it is acceptable to assassinate unborn human beings; compared to that, assassinating an innocent person's character is no big deal.
Even if Ford is telling the Truth, the Republicans don't care.
"Swetnick gave NBC News the names of four friends she said could corroborate her story. The network said two of those people had not responded to requests for comment, a third was deceased and a fourth said he could not recall knowing Swetnick. Kavanaugh has called Swetnick's accusations a "joke.""
One was dead. Let that sink in to even to the most dense among you.
DEAD.
What does it take for you to see what is happening here? You are being PLAYED. Wake Think for yourselves for at least 60 seconds.

Right, get back to us when Democrats deal with the multiple credible forcible rape allegations against Slick Willie.

Dude, it's time to go wash your trendy Che Guevera t and get ready for the next cryfest. Can't wait to hear the anguish when the midterms come in.

Actually the best Dr. Ford could do was present a bunch of people who don't remember.
Justice Kavanaugh also provided a calendar of his activities every day of 1982. This was used to narrow down the only viable time and place of the accused incident, and the FBI interviewed them and again found no evidence that CBF was even at this party.

No they didn't. They couldn't even bother to question Mark judge. And even the diary reveals there was a party that could have matched the description with the people ford named present.
Not to mention that noone writes down every party he attends in a diary.
