But did you see the anita hill trial?
Do you think he should still be confirmed?

What should be made of the 65 other high school classmates? Obviously the gop did know that this was brewing otherwise how else could they have been coordinated so quickly?

I saw that the L word was no longer deemed appropriate, was there a replacement?

The hardest part is she admits she told nobody for years, and that will be the focus and then the Republicans will ask her why and she'll get upset and the media will label the republican who asked her that as satan and cnn will say that if we confirm kavanaugh we have a constitutional crisis and then Collins wil be confkicted and joe manchin wil still have to vote to confirm or he'll lose his seat in November so then they get flake to flip and all this just so...

Trump has to nominate a different conservative,

One might almost suspect that you are simply making unfounded assumptions that fit what would be convenient for you to believe

You wouldn’t do that would you?

I really believe you don’t even know when you are free flowing between things you see reported and things you assume to be true based on it

If it's an uncorroborated he said she said from when he was in high school, and he's been ab outstanding judge for 40 years, then yes

But i didn't agree with ther dennis making franken resign so yeah
09-17-2018 , 07:33 PM
And you haven’t answered the simple question - do you think Kavanaugh should still be confirmed?

Oh just answered, n/m

Her lawyer said she didn't want to come forward because she is afraid how it will affect her practice. Im not making that up as much as you want me to be

Arguing semantics with you is futile

I know she said that

Your post made quite a few other assertions that I have not seen reported by any credible outlet

So unless I’ve missed all the stories about the 13 year old child prodigy on the federal bench I think it is factual to say he has not been an outstanding judge for 40 years lol

she graduated high school in 84 and reported this was an early 80s party

she said it was all teenagers in the room

the assumption is they were under 18
09-17-2018 , 07:54 PM
he graduated in 83 from georgetown prep school so it allegedly happened in 83 or earlier

and 65 women have written to the senate in his defense

im assuming some may ask to testify

im not looking forward to any of it

so her lawyer doesnt blame feinstein, but blames whoever leaked it

who leaked it?

does anybodyt care?

no leaking is fine, making op-eds saying you are undermining the president is fine, comey leaked confidential info and admits it but its fine,

if kavanaugh doesnt get in it was all worth it

"“We do think that Feinstein did well by her, and we do think that people took this decision away from her, and that’s wrong,” Ms. Katz said. “If the #MeToo era teaches us anything, it’s that a person gets to choose when, where and how, and now this person is going to be injected into a life-altering blood bath.”"
09-17-2018 , 07:57 PM
her own lawyer used the word "life-altering" but yes i was being hyperbolic and making stuff up
09-17-2018 , 08:12 PM
I remember this game

Mets says some stuff

I make a criticism of the stuff Mets says

Mets says more stuff that doesn’t disprove the criticism, then sarcastically mischaraterizes what I accused him of as if it is ridiculous that I would say such a thing (I didn’t)

But at least you all admit you have no interest in debating people who disagree with you

Continue your circle jerk
The two opinions I mentioned of yours was trickle down to economics was your stance on Israel. You extrapolated, incorrectly, that this meant that I think anybody who disagrees with me is ridiculous. You are a math teacher right? Do you understand the idea of small sample size?

Funnily enough I have debated with you. But you do exactly what zorkman does. You baldy assert things in the thread with no backing aside from “reasoning you’d find in a high school economics class” level arguments. When I then offer you actual research you ignore it or say you will read it later or whatever and you never do. You don’t want your mind changed. You are the one who doesn’t want to debate. You think because you assert something or have an opinion on it then it is automatically valid. But that is not how life works. Trickle down economics is a complete farce.

You haven’t, but you must assume that what comes post revolutionary change is an improvement over the status quo since you want that change to happen, and I can’t imagine a scenario post revolution that would cause you to want the revolution so I assumed you believe it would be different than I believe it would be
