New SCOTUS Judge II: The Wrath of Kavanaugh

[The Big Dog]

Yeah, sure.

Hmmm, these GOP are fiendishly clever in the intricacies of their plans!

they deliberately placed a claim that he invented the name in the 1983 yearbook so that in 2018 they could use that against the Resistance!

why didn't the FBI investigate this clever plot!

SHAM!

I dont think that. I'm referring to the letter.

 

[eeyore1954]

You were also going to respond with an irrelevant BS truther claim?

Why?

Because a lot of people saying something doesn’t make it right. Especially in light of the level of hatred/vitriol in the matter.

But the claim about the 3,000 architects and engineers is a lie.

You see why that’s an important distinction, right?

 

[Mumbles]

A whole lot of the "Architects for 911 truth" (or whatever they called themselves) were not architects, or had lower level degrees.

Note that the claim is not that 1700 lawyers have signed the petition - it is that 1700 Law Professors signed it.

This is different from the 9-11 Architects for Truth in two ways:

1: Getting a law degree and passing the bar (being a lawyer) is generally harder than getting the sorts of Bachelor's Degrees and other crap that many of the Architects for (non)Truth have.

2: Getting a professorship is even harder.

Don't law professors often have experience practicing law, as well? I can think of a couple that do so on occasion, while acting as professors, although as an engineer, I'm not exactly the expert here.

(Note that not every lawyer actually argues in courtrooms, for that matter.)

 

[carlitos]

Link please?

If you want context, look in the 9/11 subforum here. You can find the conspiracy theorists' website which claims 3000 "architects and engineers" with 9/11 truthy concerns at ae911truth dot org.

More on the Devil's Triangle; One of his classmates said that he "invented" the name.

Why didn't the FBI interview him? SHAMALAM!

Yeah, well, uh, his account can be dismissed because he was, you know, like, a privileged, white, rich, prep school attendee. Probably went on to became a privileged, white, rich frat boy.

I noticed in his yearbook that there are also multiple Fs.

That will get The TrooFFFFFFFFer Truthers all riled up again.

 

[The Greater Fool]

I'd wager that the drinking gave "Devil's Triangle" was named in honor of it's non-drinking game namesake.

I'd also bet they privately giggle while smugly congratulating themselves on how clever they are that none of the adults caught on to how they got to say "devil's triangle" to describe, of all things, a drinking game.

They still giggle every time they think "devil's triangle." They can't not.

You uncritically accept what 9/11 Truthers tell you.

Why would you not believe these so-called “Truthers”?

And just think of it? Kavanaugh can soon be FFFFing the poor, the middle class, minorities gays and women. Trump and him can play the Devil's Triangle with Melania afterward.

If 3000 Professors of Architecture called for an investigation into 9-11, I would take that seriously. That stupid 9-11 group was full of people with lower level degrees, or irrelevant degrees, or no degrees at all but they had played with legos. There were a handful of real professionals in the mix, but much of the people who signed on were not actual architects. We know that, there were hundreds of pages in this forum going over that.

Actual University or College professors are, for the most part, going to be functioning at a higher level than that. That said, I am sure of the people signing on are not actually qualified, or are "Professors" in name only or of backdoor/basement diploma mills. Still, just limiting it to professors is going to make for a much more selective list than that 9-11 crank group.

Well, unlike twoofer architect degrees, you can't buy Law Professorships (with or without tenure) on the internet!

 

[Belz...]

Please do. You'll be waiting a long time, though.

Can I understand that you don't go to a doctor when you have a health issue?

 

[Belz...]

I feel his demeanor in the hearings was not that bad considering the circumstances from his point of view.

You feel that him bringing up a conspiracy theory was ok "not that bad"?

How is his point of view relevant?

 

[sir drinks-a-lot]

And just think of it? Kavanaugh can soon be FFFFing the poor, the middle class, minorities gays and women. Trump and him can play the Devil's Triangle with Melania afterward.

I love how you just bring "gays" into it.

 

[Belz...]

I love how you just bring "gays" into it.

What, you don't think it's relevant?

 

[smartcooky]

I love how you just bring "gays" into it.

You do understand, don't you, that Kavanaugh is a God-botherer?

 

[Bogative]

You uncritically accept what 9/11 Truthers tell you.

Why would you not believe these so-called “Truthers”?

(<– – my shocked face) You mean Richard Gage wasn't exactly honest when he compiled his list of architects and engineers to support his conspiracy theories? I am completely shocked. What's the exact number?

I would like to know before I entertain your bandwagon fallacy. At what number does your argument lose legitimacy, is it 200? 1000? Or is the arbitrary cut off number 1700?

 

[Stacko]

So Judicial Crisis Network, which spent a reported $1.5 million on a pro-Kavanaugh ad blitz, has one ad featuring five women speaking in support. But... it shows the same friend, Meghan McCaleb, twice at two different media appearances lol ​

There's certainly a message being sent to female voters there but it's probably not the one they intended.

 

[acbytesla]

I love how you just bring "gays" into it.

OK, take the gays out of it. They both probably don't want anyone seeing them play with the gays. I hear it threatens some men.

(<– – my shocked face) You mean Richard Gage wasn't exactly honest when he compiled his list of architects and engineers to support his conspiracy theories? I am completely shocked. What's the exact number?

I don't know. But you're the one who believed the original claim and presented it here as a fact. For a change of pace, may be do a little homework and learn something.

I would like to know before I entertain your bandwagon fallacy. At what number does your argument lose legitimacy, is it 200? 1000? Or is the arbitrary cut off number 1700?

What argument have I made?

Also, there's no cutoff, arbitrary or otherwise. 1700 legal experts - or whatever the number is now - is simply how many there are.

Or are you now claiming that there aren't really that many or that they aren't really legal experts?

Because I can appreciate that as a knee-jerk reaction.

It would be even more embarrassing for you if you were duped twice.
