EVERY SINGLE one of these Senators need to think about this for a LONG minute:
WHAT IF one of their family members was accused like
Kavanaugh has been accused?
A father-—a brother—an uncle—a son—a son in law-—a close friend—a colleague—someone who is close to you & the media tears you & your family apart over it all........
Would you stand by quietly?
Would you think it was OK?
Would you support your family member wholeheartedly?
Would you think it was over the top to put one of YOUR family members into the HOT SEAT YOU so gladly put Judge Kavanaugh????
It is well past time that every single politician in the country take another look at their behavior & how ANY member of their family could be attacked in the same way.
Disgusting as it was when the politicians gave Bill Clinton a pass when the evidence & victims were numerous......but you all had better look long & hard into the MIRROR at your own house.
I agree with you. The thing I would add to the OP is to stress the importance of a most sacred principle of our system: the Presumption of Innocence!
The most dangerous aspect of this circus has been the undermining of that principle and ideal, and the precedent that it would set if allowed to prevail.
I don’t agree that the point of this charade - or the outcome of it - is or would be ‘one dimensional’ at all. If allowed to stand, it will strike at the very heart of our founding principles and ultimately destroy us as the Republic that the Founders intended us to be.
