    She handled Cruz's dick move like a judge should.

    First I have no doubt that the Republicans on the commission are not going to drop such a flimsy unsupported accusation at the last minute. Second that was immediately after her testimony, without benefit of rebuttal or investigation. Third as noted he then mocked her testimony after the holes and unsupported claims were fully exposed.

    Do I need to remind you the Kavanaugh hearing even before the Dems engaged in their vile baseless accusations?

    It's a dick move to look at a judges sentencing history and ask her about it? It's at dick move to call her out on lying about knowing that critical trace theory means when what she means when she talks about it in a speech?

    A judge handles challenges to their credibility and requests to clarify what they means by not answering questions? Wow. Your partisanship far outweighs any modicum of critical thinking, if that's what you really believe.

    LOL Did they request her highschool yearbook or ask her what beer she drank. Seriously I'm really glad the adults in the room shut stepped up and there was no quid pro quo and embarrassed this noble committee like the dems did. You had lefties putting chicken props out during Cavenaugh, that really shows the mindset and seriousness of the left's senators on that committee.

    Well, I guess I did expect idiotic replies as this is a perfect example of one.

    Well the answer was strange. Basically the internet is easier to get volumes of child porn so one shouldn't be sentenced for having more volumes of child porn. It's a little nutty and scary if we're a little honest and you're not into child porn.

    Glad you made that comment but would ask did you listen to the second clip all the way through. He was asking the same questions that were ask of Judge Barrett, except in a MUCH more polite manner, and AGREEING with her that her faith should not matter just as it should not have when the Dem attacked her for her faith claiming should could not be a fair judge because of it. Let's hope the next time a Rep President nominates someone the Dems behave as the Reps have here it would be an EXPONENTAL IMPROVEMENT IN DIGNITY AND BEHAVIOR.

    And I would note that I simply discount her claims she did not watch the Kavanaugh hearings or knew of the treatment he received. She seemed ignorant of quite a few things I would expect someone at the top of the legal field to know full well.

    she was playing politics. Something a scotus judge should never do but she didn’t want to piss off LGBTQ lobby. A possible justice already going political

    It's a dick move when you ask questions and constantly interrupt so they can't be answered. It's a dick move to ask question, finally let the person answer, the person answers putting the question in the proper context and when that's done simply say "I disagree" or be like the other dick and walk out like a child.
    This has nothing to do with partisanship when the questions about CRT aren't relevant (because it's a made up issue simply for the election and will magically vanish in November).

    I actually read a research paper on this kind of topic, and what she articulated(poorly) is that it isn't always purely a sexual motivation(although all motives are impure and disgusting.) So for example, one could be a drug lynchpin and not actually be into drugs themselves. As the example of the Lolita Express, we know that the dude was more interested in using it as blackmailing other influential people then he was for his own predatory practices.

    I have no context for her statement, but I will say that the statement is meaningless though because regardless of whether a possessor is financially or sexually or any kind of way motivated, it is and still should be illegal.

    She certainly doesn't seem that bright. Maybe it is just extreme caution, but when you compare her hearing with Amy Coney Barrett's she seems very slow. Coney Barrett's razor sharp, but unfortunately white.

    If a justice can’t define what “Woman” is then comments about abortion using the term woman, she is NOT qualified to effect our lives. She’s either STUPID or political or WOKE, and it has no place on the Supreme Court.

    if she was accused of raping someone while drunk and then during the interview said "I like beer", wonder what the right would think

    Liberal way:

    Conservative Guilty until proven innocent.

    Liberal never Guilty.

    You have not one shred of evidence or proof of any wrong doing by Brett Kavanaugh! Not one! And yet you call him evil.

    Hence why the current nominee is not qualified to serve on the highest court in the land. She is liberal and liberal equates to unqualified.

    Two can play at your games,

    You KNEW this was going to happen, didn't you?

    SNIP
    On Wednesday, March 23, "Antiracist Baby" by Ibram X. Kendi, a book Cruz falsely categorized as a book about critical race theory, sat atop the children's books on Prejudice and Racism genre on Amazon.
    ENDSNIP

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/anti-racist-childrens-book-sen-213951767.html

    Rafael is kicking himself now for not having a financial interest in this book....

    I hear he's made it to page 16 as well.. with the goal to finish by Memorial Day...

    "was that because Kavanaugh did evil things? we will never know for sure"

    THAT is calling somebody evil?? No it's not.... that's just very poor reading comprehension....

    We will never know for sure about the various sexual complaints, but that he proved himself a liar is beyond doubt

    https://msmagazine.com/2019/10/04/a-year-later-evidence-of-kavanaughs-abuse-is-stronger-than-ever/

    Just an all-around sketchy dude..... IOW, a perfect conservative SCOTUS member...

    Sure it is! You are the great interpreter of what people are saying! And Kavanaugh was 100% innocent, but it was just fables and fairy tales that the liberals believe as usual. Kind of like the Steel dossier. More liberal fabrication to overthrow a country. You are going with a Me Too magazine for your proof? Laughable and desparate.

    He lied about nothing. You are great at making stuff up. At least he doesn't go lenient on child pornographers. Now that's evil and then some!

    Here is some reality for you. If any of what you claim was true, he would not be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States of America!

    this was a job interview for the highest job in the land with a lifetime appointment

    I think he failed the interview

    "You have not one shred of evidence or proof of any wrong doing by Brett Kavanaugh! Not one! And yet you call him evil."

    where did I call him evil? I asked if he did evil things while drunk, and we will never know the answer to that, we do know he likes beer a lot though, he told us that during his job interview

    Sentencing guidelines should be done away with and mandatory sentencing guidelines are even worse.

    were you there? if not, how do you know he is 100% innocent? we will never know for sure if he did those things or not

    regardless if he did those things or not, he is a Justice of the Supreme Court
