    Again, the judge could not submit to the same rigor of questioning as the terrified woman did.

        Hatch (who has a history of hiring men who engage in sexual and physical assault): This man is not a monster.

        Kavanaugh shouldn't be an Administrative Law Judge at the Department of Motor Vehicles with that demeanor, let alone a Supreme Court Justice. Plus he's kind of dim. He totally got set up when he answered re Judge's reference to Bart O'Kavanaugh--"You'll have to ask him.." Gotcha

        After seeing how strong Ford was, and how antithetically weak Kavanaugh has been- imaging them in a situation like the one proposed- the telling of it is exactly how I think it would play out with the characters involved.

        She invoked sympathy with her testimony. Kavenaugh over preformed act was to invoke a shut, down from both viewers and questioners. I don't think he really wanted them to hear what he said, cuz he seemed very vague.

        And Hatch's praises sound like one of those Judicial Crisis commercials. Also, Kavanaugh's treatment is tantamount to Borking--a national disgrace. Getting tired of "immaturity" & "boys will be boys" arguments.

        That's because he's lying, and she was telling the truth.
