    Michael Tracey Retweeted Glenn Greenwald

    No conservative defense of him that I’ve seen acknowledges these amply demonstrated lies. Rather than address it, the pivot is always made to media/left-wing unfairness. Fine: let’s stipulate that media/left is unfair. How does that justify blatant lying?https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1046372256245587968 …

    Again, even those who harbor doubts about the truth of the core allegations can't rationally deny that, at least on other matters, Brett Kavanaugh lied: deliberately and repeatedly and with a strategic motive. If you want to argue it doesn't matter, do that, but he did lie: https://twitter.com/NathanJRobinson/status/1046086609505071105 …

        Here's just one example for people who refuse to read. Kavanaugh claims he "never attended a gathering like the one Ford describes." The gathering Ford describes *perfectly matches* a gathering listed on the very calendar that *Kavanaugh himself provided* as exculpatory evidence.pic.twitter.com/WjzCeHIWHx

        Whatever you want to call this move: a lie, a misdirection, a misrepresentation, a mischaracterization -- it's clearly in the realm of provable deceit, and if anyone should be held to the highest possible standards for committing deceit, it's aspiring Supreme Court justices.

        If you don't care about this deceit, don't think it's disqualifying, or don't think it ever should have come up in the first place: OK, make that argument. But refusing to acknowledge that his plainly-spoken words here even *constitute* deceit is coming across as sheer denialism.

        As someone who meticulously documented Hillary Clinton's carefully-phrased deceptions and lies, and was told it didn't matter because of some convoluted lawyerly parsing, to be denounced by conservatives for applying the exact same rigor to Kavanaugh is amusing.

        @ggreenwald My problem is with this premise: “while these aspects of Ford’s allegation might lead us to demand more proof, they in no way make it inconceivable.” What kind of evidentiary or due process standard is “does it make the accusation inconceivable”?!?

        Does a Supreme Court Justice's truthfulness have any bearing on his/her ability to interpret case law and the constitution? That's the only question that matters in this context. If yes, then we should proceed with our analysis. If not, then it's an irrelevant issue.

        The supposed “bald-faced lie” is preposterous, there’s a simple distinction in Fords gathering, 4 guys on 2 younger girls drinking beers. That marks it as different from other events and easily denied. Those times he was with girls in a group were with well known persons.

        Kavanaugh said he'd never been to a party like what Ford described. Instead of the obvious interpretation of "I've never been a party with Dr. Ford where I got blackout drunk and tried to rape someone" we get hot takes like "Brett is claiming he's never been to a small party!"

        She’s not the one up for an appointment to SCOTUS. His lies, prevarications, and his vitriolic partisan display are all disqualifying on their own. SCOTUS justices should be above reproach, above politics. He most certainly is not.

        Dems say that Blasey-Ford is telling the truth and that Kavanaugh is threrefore lying and unfit. Repubs say that this is a political hit job. All of these can be true.
