Agree, I hope it backfires on them. Everyone needs to be treated with respect. BK isn't treated with any respect or presumption of innocence, and it sets a very bad precedent.

The Avenatti allegations are ridiculous on their face. A woman who graduated high school in 1980 (a long ways from where Kavanaugh lived) was for some reason attending at least ten parties in the early 1980s with high school students where women were routinely being gang raped? And she kept going until she was raped? There's a reason that most Democrats have ignored these allegations.
An example of Flagpole’s lack of even elementary thinking evidently clouded by his partisanship.
You guys haven't listened enough. Avenatti says his client was naive and did not know those women were being assaulted until later when it happened to her...that's when she put it together. He says she has corroborating witnesses. Also, these were just house parties...parties where both high school and college kids attended. Not that uncommon in the days in a state where the drinking age just moved out of high school to college.
Do you never hear a story that ends up being true that is hard to believe? Girls and women reported stuff like that even less then than the do now.
Could you ever imagine that Bill Cosby would rape up to 60 women? Well, weird crazy stuff happens.

Really, ten parties with gang raping? This woman lived nowhere near Kavanaugh and has a very sketchy background. Sorry but you do not even look objectively anymore.
I can't wait until we hear from all of the dozens of witnesses who SAW Kavanaugh rape these women. Trump followers are despicable.
Dude probably did something bad or was complicit in the act.
Failed the interview process, no?
You'd agree as a boss

Yes we will be waiting....and waiting.....and waiting.......
At this point, anyone who believes her is a TOOL. Sad.

Mass hysteria is an ugly thing.
An accuser said who and what, but can't say where or exactly when.
She said she had one beer, so no memory impairment from that.
She said she told her fiance 16 years ago, so she didn't just suppress the whole thing. But since then she still never remembered where or when.
Not credible. There is nothing presented that can be corroborated; the who's mentioned deny the what, and there is, all too conveniently, no where or when to corroborate anyone's testimony.
Repetitio ad nauseam of the word "credible" from public figures and the assembled mob doesn't make it credible. Public figures lie and mobs lack reason.
Anyone considering themselves left-wing and caught up in that behavior should be ashamed. What a pathetic joke America's bourgeois, Hollywood "left" is.
Paging Mr. Flagpole...

Didn't know if she paid for the polygraph? How is that possible? Love how her lawyer covered after the fact by saying they'd send a bill for it. Makes me doubt the whole thing. IMO.

Ha, ha. I can just imagine the conversation:
Swetnick: You mean those boys weren't lined up because they had to go to the bathroom?
Avanetti: No Julie. Boys pee in the bushes at house parties. Have you never watched Sixteen Candles or Animal House? They were waiting for their turn to rape girls in the bedrooom.
Swetnick: Oh gosh, that's horrible! I never knew that.
Avanetti: That's right. That's why Judge and Kavanaugh were in the lineup after spiking the punch.
I'm going to put that in the affidavit, ok?
Swetnick: Sure! I can't believe I've been so naive.

But K sure doesn't seem like any judge I've ever been in front of in both temperament and bias
Anyone who practices in the D.C. Circuit knows that there are no issues with Kavanaugh's judicial temperament. There are a lot of big personalities on that court and a lot of judges who really like to throw bombs, both at litigants and occasionally at each other. Kavanaugh is not one of them. He's one of the easiest federal judges to argue before. He never tries to embarrass counsel, even when you can tell he disagrees. It's more like he actually wants to help them put on the best possible case so that the issues are crystallized. He's like a kindly professor.
He also gets along very well with his colleagues (and court staff, and clerks from other chambers). There is something to the characterization of him as a "go it alone" type, but that has more to do with his perfectionism. He writes solo opinions at a very high rate. They tend to be extremely long, scholarly, yet surprisingly readable. Every judge has their own threshold for when they feel it's necessary to write a solo opinion (either concurrence or dissent). Kavanaugh's is fairly low, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, especially since he is typically quite respectful of his colleagues' opinions.
Yearbook's are notorious for dirty comments. It doesn't mean they are truthful. Guy was pretending, bragging to be cool.
This hurts. I wanted her to tell her story and for it to be true. Just not sure about anything anymore. This does happen everyday.
"BK looks/sounds like a guy who blah blah ..."
Is SC supposed to be a personality contest or something?
BK couldve showed up today wearing his DKE Game Day sweatshirt and holding a 30-bomb of Natural Ice and it shouldn't matter, in theory.

Just adding my two cents to the whole thing. Too much baggage around him to have him on the SCOTUS already.
Everything in politics is so hard for the GOP now -- I don't get it
This actually is a reasonably good litmus test for intelligence. IF you believe Brett Kavanaugh you are not gifted with high intelligence. Of course those who disagree by definition are not aware of it.

No, you are a useful idiot. The Democrats need voters like you.
