    What’s becoming clear to me with this Kavanaugh allegation is how little has changed since Anita Hill spoke out against Clarence Thomashttp://bit.ly/2MwS0CV

        Time and time again. When any other religion’s followers, besides Christians, believe they are “acting in the name of their god and cannot compromise”, we call them extremists. What happened to freedom from religious persecution? They fear loss of exclusive privilege over others.

        Feeling sick deja vu from the Thomas days. Never thought we’d still be facing this 25 years later. Not Fun fact: Grassley, Hatch and McConnell were all in Congress then and voted Yes. As was William Cohen (Moonves’ Cohen). #anitahill was a hero. Still is.

        Hey--remember when #AnitaHill had a slew of WITNESSES to attest to her sexual harassment by #ClarenceThomas and @JoeBiden wouldn't let them testify? McConnell wanted #Kavanaugh covered better than #ClarenceThomas was. That's how that letter came together so quickly. pic.twitter.com/ZNdEj0WJ6D

        Miss Hill is owed an apology.

        CEOs in this age of Me Too have fallen by the wayside, drummed out of high profile positions, Kavanaugh should be no different.

        CEOs are held accountable to the sentiments of the consumers; Republicans on the other hand need only a sliver of the popular to evade accountability.

        And now everyone should know and accept that our courts are stacked and continue to be stacked with conservatives who want complete power over women's lives, health and way of life.

        Could you point me to the testimony and cross-examination of Kavanaugh's acuser? How about her name? #NotRemotelyTheSameThing

        As a democrat, I’m ashamed of this bullshit grandstanding members of my party are doing over something Kavanaugh might have done in high school. This is just stupid. This will only hurt the credibility of the democrats when they investigate real crimes.

        And how her courage has been overlooked. I am sure it was very difficult standing up in front of the entire country to have her story dismissed by the supposedly party of morals

        Replying to @aterkel @david_fuj

        One big difference: Anita Hill came out and accused Thomas publicly. Kavanaugh's accuser wants to remain anonymous. This prevents the committee from investigating the allegation, and emboldens Republicans to ignore it.
