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 “And let me make clear, sexual preference is an offensive and outdated term.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.”

I was pretty certain we would not see a Kavanaugh-style smear but guess I was wrong. However knowing what we know about ACB I very much doubt the rats can find anyone to come out of the woodwork a la Chrissy Ford.

Hirono must have had experience, with former Hawaii Senator Daniel Inoyue. Thus, she thinks that sexual harassment and coercion are par for the course. Funny what corruption and abuse will do to the mind of a person like Mazie.

Hirono is the best argument for reverting Hawaii back to a territory. 2 less Dems in the Senate.

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

Correct. You can’t get a true IQ score on either of them because the scale doesn’t measure accurately when you get that low.

Hirono is just another Democrat with a reprobate mind who rejects the truth of Scripture regarding this subject.

And there it is.

This is why the god of this world. Satan, has blessed Barack Hussein Obama with fame and fortune. For doing his evil work as a false prophet of "social justice".

It’s 2020. Do people understand that these days, young people do indeed choose to have sex with any gender even if they call themselves one orientation or another?

I wonder if Japanese born Mazy has any clue how the vice presidential candidate Commala Harris used sexual favors to gain her career path to Senator, while ACB was raising a family while thriving in the legal world with faith based integrity. Even these democrat women are despicable in their evil hatred.

I hope one of the R senators tears into Mazy tomorrow... maybe even subtlety drawing a comparison of her failed demonization attempt of ACB and her democrat colleague on the committee - Commala.

Crazy Masie Hornio is nuts.

True. But I still blame the voters as I do with Dems everywhere. They are to blame.

Plus I think despicably evil applies to her as well.

This is sickening. They’ve destroyed language by changing/inventing the meaning of words. They have brainwashed generations to hate their country but love perversion. They have told us not to judge & by doing so we have fallen into Judgement. They have sent millions unborn to their deaths in the name of “choice”.
They are unrepentant. They are Democrats. They need to be mocked, ridiculed, investigated, questioned unceasingly.
They must understand there is now nowhere to hide. No more “be nice to the other side”. No more excuses. Fight or die.
We are at war.

It’s important for freepers to understand that by refusing to reference it as a preference it is demeaning to feminist lesbians who view their

CHOICE

not to have sex with men as meaningless and automated.

Many radical feminists are angered by this patriarchal move of masculinist gay me.

[They think everyone believes the pretend reality they wrap themselves in ?]

Democrats believe in lies and Democrats are committed to lies.

Especially since the arrival of Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama on the world scene.

It is a requirement for them to keep believing in him, his lies, and people like Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi.

Tomorrow. Some bloated flunkie will claim he couldn’t get a grade unless he met her demands.
Or she cheated on a test. Or lied before a court.
It will be something. Guaranteed.

Yes, it could be that this is a setup.

Because they have some liar waiting in the wings. A sudden “scandal” that will appear in the NYT, Washington Post or some other left-wing rag.
