Enough with the smearing of Brett Kavanaugh
The New York Post ^ | September 24, 2018 | The Post Editorial Board

A defiant Brett Kavanaugh tells the Senate Judiciary Committee he will not allow the ongoing smears from Democratic sources to intimidate him into withdrawing his Supreme Court nomination. Good for him.

Especially when the latest onslaught against him from Ronan Farrow and Jane Mayer in The New Yorker adds up to a whole lot of nothing.

By Farrow-Mayer’s own account, accuser Deborah Ramirez couldn’t be certain that Kavanaugh was responsible, and every one of her “corroborating” witnesses disputes her account.

Just as all the people named by Christine Blasey Ford as having been at the high-school party where she recalls being attacked also deny it.

No wonder The New York Times and other national media outlets took a pass on the Ramirez story: The Times said it “interviewed several dozen people” and could find “no one with firsthand knowledge.”

Indeed, Ramirez told Farrow and Meyer that she only decided to go public “after six days of carefully assessing her memories and consulting with her attorney.”

So 35 years left her uncertain — but 35 years and six days crystallized her memory to provide graphic details? This barely even qualifies as an allegation.

But Judiciary Committee Democrats — who yet again knew about an accuser but never told their GOP colleagues — are demanding an open-ended delay and “an FBI investigation.”

If the political circumstances were reversed, Democrats would be screaming, “McCarthyism.” Yet they won’t hesitate in the slightest to destroy Kavanaugh’s career along with his nomination....

Another article said Kavenaugh had several roommates his freshman year. Wonder if he and roach didn’t get along. Also wonder how long they roomed that roach could form such animus laden opinions

“Ray Charles could see it.”

I don’t understand that.

“Ray Charles Robinson, known professionally as Ray Charles, was an American singer-songwriter, musician, and composer. Among friends and fellow musicians he preferred being called “Brother Ray”. He was often referred to as “The Genius”. Charles was blind from the age of seven.”

I should have caught on. Obvious now that you mention he was blind which I knew.
