        Here are some of the questions Brett Kavanaugh thought Bill Clinton should either have to resign or answer under oath. https://www.emptywheel.net/2018/09/05/bill-clinton-did-not-win-an-election-by-getting-a-blowjob-the-danger-of-lindsey-grahams-willful-ignorance-about-russian-interference/ …pic.twitter.com/NyW1jQmvHr

        I believe he attacked a teenager when he was a teenager. There has been no indication he has preyed in teenagers as an adult. This is really slanderous.

        I made an assertion: That Kavanaugh coaches a girl's basketball team. That is a fact. Can you point me to the so-called slander in the comment?

        You reckon they'd let a guy that allegedly attempted rape of a 15 yr old even drive a bus? Honest question. How many parents would be cool, with letting their daughters on a bus driven by someone who was even accused of such an act? Now imagine that bus is SCOTUS.

        The people who are pushing for this guy to be confirmed want him on SCOTUS to overturn Roe. They don't even care if their daughters or granddaughters die from a back alley abortion, so can't imagine them caring about a bus driver's record of assault. They hate women, period.

        Actually, I think they have a more immediate set of concerns. Major gerrymandering case in Oct, and then #Drumpf’s presidential survival. Mueller is close.

        Do we know if Kav still drinks? "He recalled Kavanaugh as “relatively shy” until he drank, at which point he said that Kavanaugh could become “aggressive and even belligerent.”" (from today's Mayer/Farrow NYer piece)

        That struck me too when reading their piece. That says he is what one would call a "mean drunk". All the more reason it's so hard to convince people he is capable of these allegations unless they have witnessed him drunk.

        At age 35 he emailed guys he'd been with on a bro weekend to remind them not to tell spouses anything that happened. At age 51 he spoke at old high school & joked about the code of silence. He's a complete degenerate.

        And seems to make great show of it, which has always made me uncomfortable on a few levels even before all of this came out.

        Exactly. On a few levels. The most insidious, but really also: You're applying to be on the Supreme Court of these United States, correct? Why is coaching a high school girls' basketball team such an extraordinarily dominant part of the process?
