He may choose to do something other than law after graduation. Much truth to is statement Brother Homer. No you didn't. I did. But I certainly didn't mean to imply Nola - or anyone else - cannot do well in life unless they are a lawyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in this case. You either believe the accuser, who is accusing Kavanaugh and only Kavanaugh, or you believe the accused. Anything else is adding a hypothetical to try and justify something while making yourself seem compassionate. This is what I whole-heartedly believe Collins did with her statement today.

Only if you want to insult Mrs. Ford and everyone's intelligence. For everyone who thinks there's scant evidence of Mr. Kavanaugh's guilt, there's even less of Mrs. Ford being too crazy or stupid to know who assaulted her. Or such a psycho that she knows it was someone else and she's framing Kavanaugh. This wasn't some random stranger at night in the park. It was at a gathering of people she knew. Either she didn't get assaulted and you assume she lied, or you believe she was assaulted just as she said. But this thing where we pretend to believe her and him are both telling the truth is patronizing bull**** designed to minimize pissing off women voters.

Literally the least believable version of all this is the version that's being peddled by the GOP right now. Just say you don't believe her and retain some self respect. Or say you just don't know who's telling the truth and you need more evidence. Don't tell me you think the coin is showing heads AND tails at the same time.

The only danger in not getting the Senate for Dems is if RBG happens to pass before 2020. Let’s hope that happens before 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not right that voters in some states have more voting power just because of where they live thanks to the electoral college.
