...the lack of judicial temperament displayed on September 27 hearing, cause us to withdraw our support.”

“The reason for our withdrawal is not the truth or falsity of Dr. Ford’s allegations, which are still being investigated, but rather was the nature of Judge Kavanaugh’s testimony,” they write. “In our view that testimony was partisan, and not judicious, and inconsistent with what we expect from a Justice of the Supreme Court, particularly when dealing with a co-equal branch of government.”

Another cool story for a looney left "news" outlet. In other news, 100 or more other Yale classmates (who also do not matter one iota to this process) continue to vouch for Kavanaugh.

Kavanaugh is a gang rapist.....NOT

Okay, let me get this straight......

Kavanaugh is a gang rapist.....NOT

Ok, not a gang rapist, but a serial rapist.....NOT

Not a serial rapist, but a rapist.....NOT

Ok, not a rapist, but a blackout drunk.....NOT

Not a blackout drunk, but an alcoholic....NOT

Not an alcoholic, but he drinks beer.

Ok, he just threw ice at somebody once in the 80s.

And the 'Dim'ocrats' think this is enough to disqualify a brilliant judge with a long stellar record on the Bench who has gone through many previous FBI investigation without a blemish. Tell me where the sanity is in all this.

And, the fact that you can't be bothered to READ tells me a lot about you because I clearly stated a few posts above yours that I was NOT OK with it - but, naturally your partisan bias ASSUMES THE WORST.

That said, I've never believed what happened in HS/College should haunt a person their entire life. That also said, I believe Christine Ford but don't believe at this late date that allegation is meaningful.

I also believed Kavanaugh when he raged at the Democrat conspiracy and Clintons and was downright rude to some of the Democrat Senators - to whom he is, in fact subordinate, as they are his employers conducting a job interview.

So, while I hate the way this went - one good thing came out of it.

Kavanaugh revealed himself.

There can now be NO DOUBT on which side of the political spectrum Kavanaugh lies and we can also have NO DOUBT he will NEVER BE an IMPARTIAL ARBITER when deciding any suit brought by Democrats.

So, we will have an OUTED STOOGE on the SC.

That's what you call Making America Grossly Awful.
You are exactly WHY there is divisiveness and bias in this country - you do NOT LISTEN.

Had he not gotten angry at the accusations they'd be saying "if I got falsely accused of something like this I'd be mad as hell. Why isn't he angry? Someone with no human emotion is not fit to be a judge" or "He's not getting angry because he knows he's guilty".

It's literally "say anything" at this point.
Let's not forget, that's exactly what they did say when he was very calm during the Fox News interview.

Most of us watched Him and listened to Him.
The White House regularly alters transcripts to creat fake news. That s why Trump uses the term so often. He is doing it.

It took him a couple days, but Trump got around to mocking and ridiculing Ford at his rally tonight. Kvnaugh is said to be vicious and mean when drunk, but Trump is that way when he is stone cold sober. I have never met anyone like that in real life. Most of us have a sense of decency that would hold us back. When we drink it can go away, but sober we are polite and considerate for the most part.
