Hirono Asks Barrett If She Has Ever 'Made Unwanted Requests For Sexual Favors'
MSN ^ | October 13, 2020

Posted on 10/13/2020 5:38:29 PM PDT by Helicondelta

Sen. Mazie Hirono asked Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett whether she has been the perpetrator of any sexual misconduct, a question Hirono said she asks all nominees.

“I ask each nominee these two questions, and I will ask them of you. Since you became a legal adult, have you ever made unwanted requests for sexual favors or committed any verbal or physical harassment or assault of a sexual nature?” the Hawaii Democrat asked during the hearing on Tuesday.

Hirono also used her time on Tuesday to criticize Barrett over her use of the phrase “sexual preference” instead of “sexual orientation” earlier in the day when the matter of same-sex marriage was being discussed.

“Not once, but twice, you used the term ‘sexual preference’ to describe those in the LGBTQ community,” Hirono said. “And let me make clear, sexual preference is an offensive and outdated term. It is used by anti-LGBTQ activists to suggest that sexual orientation is a choice. It is not. Sexual orientation is a key part of a person’s identity.”

Mazie Hirono is in a match race with Patty Murray for the most vacuous senator.

Maizie replaced another slimeball Daniel Inouye...but at least Inouye managed to serve his country honorably during World WarII.

The Democrats and their Romans 1 platform:

24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

the hawaiian lapdog is the chick that leaked that poor, whimpering dr. ford’s letter to the press, and tossed that helpless woman into the national glare.

right after harry reid burns in hell, hirono should take his place at the front of the line.

Hirono is the best argument against democracy that I can possibly think of.

Since you became a legal adult

As opposed to what? An illegal adult? An unlawful adult?

Hirono does seem obsessed with this subject. She hates men as was on full display during the Kavanaugh hearing. Lindsey should have shut her down with that line of questioning. Disgusting. How did that nut ever get a seat on the Judiciary Committee?
