Good. His snotty pique—“I spent 31 hours and answered 1200 questions, you peons!”—makes me less and less sorry for him. This is the reaction of a guilty man who is angry to be called out by people he feels superior to, not an innocent man taken aback in shock.

This is the way I read it too. “I sat for your show that you put on so as to be seen to be going through the motions. I was groomed for this job, I’ve served my masters well, and thus-just confirm me OK.”

Brett Kavanaugh on Monday called the revelation of yet another sexual misconduct allegation against him part of a “grotesque and obvious character assassination.”


Obviously so obvious that it obviously doesn't merit any investigation, so obvious is its obviousness.

I wish Kavanaugh would take the time to have a dirty conservative penis thrust in his face or spend some time getting groped and sexually assaulted by a gang of drunks. He is doubling down on his christian sexual predator instincts like Roy Moore. He will realize these are not smears.

I am waiting for Avennatti to hand this sexual predator’s legal balls to him on a platter. He can play christian conservative victim until then.

I think what everyone fails to understand is Kavanaugh is in with the GOP crowd that controls the confirmation process precisely BECAUSE he’s a sketchy miscreant that doesn’t respect women. Just like the man that nominated him. He’s the type of person Republicans want on SCOTUS, and in the Congress.

In all fairness, when he was 17, Merrick Garland once returned a video to Blockbuster without rewinding it.

McConnell, the quintessential devil in these matters. Trump is just a boorish place-holder; a lesser demon.

It’s good to have an “Illustrated Field Guide to the Miscreants” listing all their characteristcs and natural habitats.

Brett Kavanaugh is a scumbag, pure and simple. Blasey-Ford is coming for you, Kavie.

Exhibit A. Unhinged Mitch now thinks NYT is not fake news.

BTW, Thanks, NYT.

Exactly. And these types of sketchy miscreants are exactly what Trump looks for when hiring BECAUSE Trump has blackmail material on them. Trump’s go-to negotiating tactics are extortion/blackmail and bribery. Since he is a cheapskate and not particularly wealthy, Trump perfers extortion. Therefore, with all the dirt coming out in hearings, Kavanaugh is now a lot less attractive to Trump.
