Fair point.

I might be willing to tolerate it to some extent

The point of the Senate was so that small states didn’t get constantly out-voted by larger states, and when the Constitution was written the states had VERY different needs and wants and personalities from each other, which is not true to the same extent today. It was literally created for the exact purpose that…

This reads like a first-semester poli sci student’s “epiphany” on the flaws of the American experiment.

“I have no knowledge of what happened to her that night, but I was there, yeah.”

Can we stop with this hoax that the FBI needed to interview Ford? She already told the Judiciary Committee everything she knew and the Senators (D) had plenty of time to get out any answers to questions they deemed would be important (instead, most of them took the opportunity to grandstand which tells you how much…

Well her story doesn’t really make sense, so of course the first reactions of many people is going to be to try and get more info before doing anything.

It’s all theatre at this point anyway and really has been ever since the nomination was announced. What are we really going to learn from the questioning? Kavanaugh has been a judge for years, he’s not going to commit some crazy faux-pas. At worst, he might decline to answer some questions or ‘fail to recall.’ There’s…

Putting aside the fact that of course people who have been drinking can still be—and frequently are—victims of sexual assault,

Don’t tape me bro!

If by white collar career, you mean stacking shirts at JC Penney’s, then maybe.

I’ll preface this by saying that I’m not 100% on board with the following argument, but it has some merit. When I was coaching in college, the rationale seemed to be this:

It’s not like they’re trying to hide their pettiness. They won’t back down. 

Except conceding at this point is conceding without any evaluation of truth. I would love for someone to explain what about her accusation rises to the level of “credible”. It would be hard to think of a less credible accusation. Old. Missing details. Missing timely reporting. Zero other people coming forward. All she…

Don’t kid yourself. She was never willing to testify for fear of being caught in a perjury trap. That’s why she wanted the FBI to investigate first, to attempt to magically scrape up some evidence that she never had. The only reason she is saying “maybe” now is because it’s the only way she can keep this slanderous bal…

I love hew we’ve reached the pseudo-Stalinist point when an innocent person not demanding that federal authorities investigate them for a claim they deny ever took place is treated as a sign of guilt.

Oh how I love that LS7 sound. Great purchase!

That is somehow ten times funnier than I could have imagined. The way he just crumples to the ground. It even looks like the facial expression changes. I want a gif of this, but the sound adds so much to it as well. The dull thud, the guy in the crowd yelling “ooohhhh,” the PA guy drolling on about pancakes being 10…

I’ll say what we are ALL thinking: She knows she would be committing perjury so OF COURSE she won’t actually testify.

And here is the proof, of course she wont testify.
