Anti-Kavanaugh Protester Confronts GOP Senator – He Pushes Back
The Daily Caller ^ | October 2, 2018 | Benny Johnson

Posted on 10/02/2018 3:44:35 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Anti-Brett Kavanaugh protesters have flooded Capitol Hill since news of allegations of sexual misconduct against him, walking hallways in protest, holding loud demonstrations and confronting senators in elevators.

One such protester approached Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana on his way through a Senate building walkway Monday. She asked, “Why are you supporting Kavanaugh?” to the brisk-walking senator. Cassidy took the chance to push back, asking her if she would like it if her loved ones were “destroyed” by “uncorroborated” charges.

Cassidy: “Why wouldn’t I support Kavanaugh?”

Protester: “Because rapists are bad.”

Cassidy: “Wait a second — everybody there said that it did not happen. So why am I going to–”

Protester: “So you’re going to believe Mark Judge over a woman?”

Cassidy: “No, I’m going to believe her best friend.”

Protester: “Her best friend didn’t say it didn’t happen. Her best friend said she wasn’t told about it.”

Cassidy: “She said she didn’t remember.”

Protester: “So you’re OK as a doctor to harm a woman?”

Cassidy: “Wait a second – are you OK as a person to go ahead and to accept a non-corroborated charge to destroy someone’s life? If it destroyed your life, your son’s life, or your husband’s? Wait a second, answer my question. If it was your husband, your son, your father, whose life has been destroyed by uncorroborated, would you like that?”

Protester: “I would support a full FBI investigation.”

Cassidy: “No, no. Would you like that? An uncorroborated charge, destroying—”

Protester: “I wouldn’t marry somebody that was a drunk.”

Cassidy: “Oh no, wait a second. Uncorroborated. Answer the question. I don’t think you’re able to. Because you know it’s unfair.”

Protester: “I would stand up.”

Cassidy: “You know it’s unfair.”

Protester: “I would fight. And I would make sure women are heard. Clearly you’re OK if a rapist goes on the Supreme Court.”

Cassidy: “No, I’m not. But then on the other hand, clearly you’re OK, the absence of evidence obviously means nothing to you.”

Protester: “No, there is evidence. Look at the standard. How many people are in jail for less?”

These protesters are like the zombies on The Walking Dead. All they do is growl and keep coming at you. They are completely brainless.

He should have asked if she knows the meaning of the word “slander”?

Why isn’t Capitol Hill security confining the loca conos like this one to a kennel where crazy bitches like that belong? I suppose at Judge Kavenaugh’s next public appearance some insane female will crank up “Sympathy for the Devil” from her play list just to make a scene...

This is why it is impossible to have a serious conversation with a liberal. Reality for them does not exist. And, they keep moving the conversation without establishing a point. For them, there is no logic.

Advice: Don't waste you time or breath.

Cassidy should have accused her of groping him right there in the middle of the hall. Of course, prefaced with, “This is a joke, but this woman just groped me! Help! She touched me! Help! “

Very loudly and in front of cameras, “OMG, there’s a rapist on the Supreme Court?!? Who? Is it RBG?!? Kaghan??? Really??? Well, we need to get this information investigated. Thank you so much for telling me.”

I do not remember many, if any, Republicans challenging the basis for these types of shout-downs before Trump erupted on the scene.

MAGA!

In many cases, one does not argue to convince the opponent. One argues to reach the voices of reason within those watching the argument.

Hoorah! for the Republican from Louisiana!

When confronted, attacked, dont answer the “question”.
Instead, respond ONLY with your own questions l.

Make them fight on your battlefield

She had a point with that last reply. Millions of men lives have been destroyed with less evidence and testimony. So why not the more equal animals?

Even Dr. Ford clearly stated there was no rape.

So it’s full-fledged rape now? That wasn’t the accusation.

And she never answered his question.

Yep. Around these parts we call the libs; “The Walking Democrats”. They feed off the productive, extremely dangerous and totally useless...well...except maybe some target practice.
They should get the full “Nagan Treament”.

A rapist? These people live in a cess pool of lies while acting as pawns for the left. She probably believes what she is saying which is even more concerning. They have no grip on reality.

Further more, they vote.
