His response to "how many is too many" is pretty interesting as well.

Lügenpresse!
And, yes, it is dishonest when people edit quotes to make it seem like someone has said something different to what they have said, isn't it? I believe the correct response to having that pointed out is "*k*"
https://www.washingtonpost.com/life...e8-b2b5-79270f9cce17_story.html?noredirect=onA man emailed recently in response to something I’d written about street harassment. He was so glad, he said, that his college-age daughter never experienced anything like that. Less than a day later, he wrote again. They had just talked. She told him she’d been harassed many, many times — including that week. She hadn’t ever shared this, because she wanted to protect him from her pain.
For all the stereotypes that linger about women being too fragile or emotional, these past weeks have revealed what many women already knew: A lot of effort goes into protecting men we love from bad things that happen to us. And a lot of fathers are closer to bad things than they’ll ever know.
Now I'm a teetotaler. I haven't had a drink for a decade and few even before that. I'd say I've been actually intoxicated less than 10 times in my life and probably 8 of those times were in college. And me with my limited drinking experience has 'blacked out'. I know this because friends told me I did things I couldn't remember. I don't buy it that a heavy partier didn't have these kinds of experiences.
Why? Lots of heavy drinkers don't have blackouts. It doesn't strike people uniformly, your personal experiences aren't representative of drinkers in general or Kavanaugh specifically.

If this type of amnesia after drinking alcohol sounds familiar, that’s because blackouts are surprisingly common: one analysis suggests that over half of university-aged drinkers have experienced some level of blackout when asked about their drinking habits, while a survey of more than 2,000 adolescents recently out of secondary school found that 20% had experienced a blackout in the previous six months.

He found that out of 100 alcoholics, more than 60 experienced regular blackouts,
A woman writes about what men don't know:
Lol. How patronizing
Melvin Udall said it best when asked how does he write women so well.
"I think of a man and take away reason and accountability"
Read the column. Then get back to us.
I don't have an opinion on that
Read the column. Then get back to us.
That is an old version of the story that falsely states when BK found out about the investigation.
The whole thing is bull ****
I don't believe the dates of these texts have been released yet.
And if i've missed those dates, please do correct me.
If they are before the writer of the article reached out to Kavanaugh's team, a date and time that should be easy to verify. Then that would represent an issue with Kavanaugh's testimony, no?
[Judge Kavanaugh]: They couldn’t — the New York Times couldn’t corroborate this story and found that she was calling around to classmates trying to see if they remembered it. And I, at least — and I, myself, heard about that, that she was doing that. And you know, that just strikes me as, you know, what is going on here? When someone is calling around to try to refresh other people, is that what’s going on? What’s going on with that? That doesn’t sound — that doesn’t sound good to me. It doesn’t sound fair. It doesn’t sound proper. It sounds like an orchestrated hit to take me out. That’s what it sounds like.
What the hell? I'm with Big Dog on this and I'm almost never on the Big Dog's side. I HAVE NEVER seen anyone use asterisks for emphasis.
You mean this testimony?
HATCH: When did you first hear of Ms. Ramirez’s allegations against you?
KAVANAUGH: In the last — in the period since then, the New Yorker story.
I'd have to compare the texts side by side. Instead of lining up she now has boys in a huddle or clump. This might be minor, but it tells me her visual memory is changing. A huddle or clump is not any less reprehensible; for all I know they took a number. But people often fill in memories with images they are sure happened, and if that story changes at all it is a weak spot in their recollection. IMO only. Have not checked the latest on talking to Swetnick.That's what she said in her statement, so if that's what she also said on TV then it doesn't appear to be the case that her story has changed.
Wrong Bob. Do keep up.
