“Unless there’s something more, no, I’m not going to ruin Judge Kavanaugh’s life over this,” Graham said.

“I’m thinking, is there any man in this room that wouldn’t be subjected to such an allegation? A false allegation?” Iowa Rep. Steve King said at an Iowa Faith & Freedom Coalition event on Saturday. “How can you disprove something like that? Which means, if that’s the new standard, no man will ever qualify for the…

Just so. I would seem obvious that an innocent man of moral integrity would do everything reasonable in his power to establish and maintain his name and standing. Particularly for someone aspiring to the post he is being considered for ... Even at that, a lie detecter is not admissible evidence, but the fact that the…

This is correct ... the danger is that it is sometimes hard (if not impossible) to casually identify the type of mold growing on your bread. Case in point Aspergillis, of which only some strains create unhealthy mycotoxins (while as a family look very similar if not identical with normal viewing). Then there is the…

... by any chance did that list compiled for Kavanaugh ... did it contain the signature of his mother?

While context and circumstance lead me to believe it is true ... the critical question is - can it be proven or given enough circumstantial momentum to derail the likes of Kavanaugh? 

Ahhh ... okay, that makes sense.

... there was a time when I truly believed in our system of governance and in particular, the mechanism by which we elected our officials. Nowadays, I just shake my head as I read such ... drivel. A congressman no less, with an arrogance to malign the notion of simple common decency and one of Americas greatest…

“They don’t care what she has to say because they don’t think that what he did was bad.”

... why do I hear the mocking chant of ‘fake news ... fake news’ being murmured in sonorous rhythm with the drum of boot heels?

... not all of us. I sleep well at night on this issue. That said, in the end we all lose because the wrong candidate got in ...

You’d be surprised at what folks still have and are satisfied with ... as depressing as it may sound ... don’t discount RCA, DVD or standard F-Cable ... case in point I had a relative who wanted a particular sports event ‘taped’ ... I was going to watch it anyway, so I said sure thing. My mistake was not to ask…

“Apparently, “goodness” isn’t affected by what a man does before turning 18.”

Much Mahalo Mazie,

“we don’t want ruin a good man’s career with rumors”

First off, I don’t think its silly or absurd ... that said, I am sorry to here that this debate is not ... rewarding for you.  In any case, I thank you for your keen and earnest insight/opinions.

I don’t see how a writer’s personal conceptualization (getting into the head space of a character) changes how the intended demographic will view that character.

I recall the passage you quote ... in particular the question.

“None of those examples sleep together. It’s the bedroom sharing that makes Bert and Ernie seem particularly gay.”

I agree, social equality is the goal for our society, unfortunately, the reality is that it does not/cannot manifest instantaneously. Case in point, Slavery with the Civil War of the 1860s ... human rights activism in the 1950's to present day. So yes, ‘queer’ kids need representation too ... as did Afro-Americans,…
