Well, far too many here at FR work for "Pearl-Clutchers R Us".
But Mitch has been pivotal. He is the one who delayed the Garland appointment, he took s**t everyday for it, and still did not cave. He has quietly and efficiently gotten almost 100 Circuit and Appelate judges confirmed to the court, serving now! Now two Supreme Court justices, Mitch would not call the vote if he was not 100% sure he had them.
"My job of getting Constitutional judges on the bench is of utmost priority if we do nothing else, judges will have a lasting generational impact on our nation." McConnell
He has a right to show emotion. Emotion is normal and natural. Anger at being unjustly accused is the right response.
What I saw on senator dicky Blue Menthol’s face was anger and hate. He is unfit to be a senator.
Bush One and Bush Two made phone calls in his defense.
Center-left Senator Susan Collins spoke forcefully about voting for him.
Kavanaugh calls the center-left Anthony Kennedy “my mentor.”
“I am getting apprehensive about Kavanaugh.”
I’ve been in the “iffy” category since his nomination — never considered him as conservative. But I think it’s more a case of him being a-political and politically tone deaf. He immerses himself in the technicalities of the law, and politics isn’t his thing. If it were, he’d have hired a different attorney than the left-wing hag he chose.
The SCOTUS position shouldn’t be political, but to achieve a confirmation it’s ultra-political. I’m surprised he didn’t know that going in. He had to have studied Bork and Thomas hearings.
They most certainly deserved the a$$-chewing. They’ve deserved it for years. He has nothing for which to apologize.
