I do find it disturbing how eager the @CNN commentators are, especially the non-conservatives, to deem Kavanaugh's opening statement "forceful" and "emotional" rather than "a blubbery mess of petulance and self pity, so different from Dr. Ford's calm and dignity."
I guess it's because I never watch cable or network news but I'm shocked at how eagerly they lapped up what looked to me like an affronted load of bullshit.
