    Jeet Heer Retweeted Best selling LGBT children's author Matt Walsh

    The emerging conservative argument is that, yes, Kavanaugh lied (or was "less than truthful") in sworn testimony but that's because he's so angry at being falsely accused. I admire the boldness of this play.https://twitter.com/MattWalshBlog/status/1046052917403365377 …

    Best selling LGBT children's author Matt WalshVerified account @MattWalshBlog
    If I was traipsed in front of the Senate on bogus charges and forced to answer deeply personal and embarrassing questions about my high school antics, maybe out of embarrassment and anger I might be less than truthful. Would that make me a liar who can't be trusted again? Come on

        Well, they knew that it wasn't true. In private, they were probably going, "Pffft. Amateur."

        THREAD: You may be wondering why only people on the left are worked up about Kavanaugh’s obvious lies. I mean, do people on the right really believe his (changing) story about what “Renate alumnus” meant? https://twitter.com/joshtpm/status/1046019746070745090 …

        We certainly don't expect steely resolve; we are pre-emptively prepared to forgive that officer even if, out of fear, he murders a child. (Assuming the child is black.) But I agree with the gist of this.

        "Everybody lies" is just the tiniest step down from last week's defense of "every high school boy rapes a little".

        Can we be sure that was the real Brett Kavanaugh? It could have been another one of his dopplegangers giving sworn testimony.
