delightful optics - old white guy(s) lecturing a female professor on promiscuity, drinking, etc. Should be a big hit, a real laff riot and crowd pleaser.

At first glance this looks like someone is pointing a gun at Assleyâs head. Ohhh.âŚitâs just a microphone?
Almost the same thingâŚ

He and Arlen Spector did the dirtiest, over the top, hatchet job ad hominem cross examinations of Anita Hill.
Milquetoast Joe Biden, who I believe was the chair, literally wrung his hands after hanging Hill out to dry. And I will never forget that Senator Robb voted to confirm Clarence Thomas. And I think Oliver North then ran for Senate against him. And he barely won.

At this point, we should turn and thank Senator Franken for taking the high road and doing the right thing, as painful as it was for many of us. Otherwise, the Democrats would have no ground to stand on. If the women at the county fairs who said Franken touched their butts had the right to be heard, so does Kavanaughâs accuser(s). Right?

I wish I could comment on Joshâs post that Republicans will crawl through broken glass for this person. Iâd like to add that Iâll be happy to donate as many wine and bourbon empties as I can drink.

Grassley, you are such a liar. You knew about this and you did nothing but try to cover it up and thatâs what you would still be doing if Senator Feinstein hadnât released that letter.

But, they are on the cusp of ramming an Alito and Gorsuch clone, actually one possibly more intellectually dishonest and ideology driven than those two scumbags, to the SCOTUS, so they can fuck all of us long after they are dead, and hopefully being molested in Hell for eternity.

Heâs too senile to realize the rank hypocrisy of his grumblings. Less that 12 hours was good enough to drop tons of documents on the Dems last weekâŚbut itâs not fair to do that to Republicans!

This info needs to be brought to the attention of the Dem senators on that committee, with a request the info be added to the record.

If this were six weeks after the midterms instead of six weeks before the midterms, Iâd be willing to bet just how much empathy Mr. Chairman would have with the accuserâs right to be heard⌠But to give Prof. Ford the Prof. Hill treatment right now, at this moment, could be just too much for the reelection campaign of some endangered Republican Senators. My heart goes out to Grassley and Kavanaugh and all the other little dears who were struck by a terminal case of horrendously bad timing nobody could have seen coming.

As an aside, I think itâs time that Democrats, especially centrist Democrats, drop the nonsense about the âmajesty of the SCOTUSâ as a neutral arbiter. The SCOTUS is now, first and foremost a political body. Perhaps it was always so to some extent, but the GOP has, in recent years, beginning with âImpeach Earl Warrenâ and continuing through the stonewalling of the Garland nomination, pretty much permanently politicized the SCOTUS.
So yeah, letâs pack the SCOTUS. And perhaps some day establish overlapping fixed terms for justices.
