Lessons to be learned from the Kavanaugh Hearing

[Lambchops]

What is this? "Argumentum ad Facebook"?

What in the actual f...

 

[Belz...]

Cool, ignore the real problem, and blame people trying to get away from the crazy mob thats blocking and attacking them.

Quick question: why did that video not include what happened before that point? It starts with the car in the middle of the group of people and them attacking it. What happened just prior to that?

Cool, ignore the real problem, and blame people trying to get away from the crazy mob thats blocking and attacking them. I expect nothing less until it starts happening to liberals for being liberal. Then... I expect epic whine. Keep supporting this type of rhetoric, and it'll soon come to haunt the left in ways you never wanted it to. Just remember some folks tried to warn you it was coming when it happens, because it's not a matter of if it happens, it will.

River, at what point after conservatives came out in support of violent revolt did they decide to start pretending they cared about law and order again?

 

[johnny karate]

I voted for the candidate in every election up until 2016. Since the left has collectively lost it's mind, I've decided to never vote democrat again until reform is made with the party. I don't like Trump enough to say I'm not in favor of some party reform with the GOP either. (i dont always agree with GOP policy btw)

After seeing democrats react to this president, and seeing the media machine toss out the worst propaganda I've seen in my lifetime -- I'm over it.

Yeah, better to go with the side that sold out every principle it claimed to ever have and hopes we won’t all remember they used to be opposed to Trump, too.

 

[Slings and Arrows]

More lunacy from the unhinged left. Georgetown University professor calls for the deaths and castration of GOP senators who support Brett Kavanaugh:

Look at this chorus of entitled white men justifying a serial rapist’s arrogated entitlement. All of them deserve miserable deaths while feminists laugh as they take their last gasps.

Bonus: we castrate their corpses and feed them to swine? Yes.

-- Dr. Christine Fair (Sept 29, 2018)

Democratic Party: "White men deserve miserable deaths."

Republican Party: "Jobs not mobs."

We'll see whose message prevails this Nov. 6th.

*not necessarily heard in Charlottesville

No, I'm pretty sure the Republicans in Charlottesville were talking about Jews not replacing them.

 

[Stacyhs]

And meanwhile back in the nut farm of right wing extremists, Dr. Blasey Ford is still receiving death threats and cannot move home with her family:

Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her, cannot move back to her home due to the volume of death threats she is still receiving, her lawyers told NBC on Sunday.

I doubt those 'fine people' considered Jews to be 'white men'

Yes, that's a horrible thing to say. She shouldn't have said it.

But she doesn't represent the Democratic Party in any clear sense.

 

[Stacyhs]

Yes, she was definitely wrong to write that. No excuses.

That's not what Dr Fair said. She referred to a specific group of white men:"chorus of entitled white men justifying a serial rapist’s arrogated entitlement". It's disingenuous to imply something else.

Republican Party: "Jobs not mobs."

We'll see whose message prevails this Nov. 6th.

Is that your new talking points memo?

 

[Lurch]

Another thing I've learned.

Partisans--of all stripes--are prone to taking some lone 'enemy' extremist's act or expression and attaching it to the entirety of the opposition.

I *really* wish this tendency could be recognized before folks fall prey to it and give into a broad and wide ranging rant.

And to give some leeway where feelings are known to be running high.

Otherwise only a steepening slope into the bowels of Hell lies before us all.

Americans *must* step back enough to see that all this internecine bickering perfectly suits Putin and others. Rally before the common foe, if a foe must be found, and not each other.

Oh, she was referring to specific group of white men who she wished miserable deaths to and wanted to cut off their genitals and feed them to pigs.

Smart move to come forward and make that crucial clarification skeptic ginger.

/holy ****.....

Goal post moving duly noted. And pot meet kettle. Alt-righters have no room to talk.

Kavanaugh and his privileged frat boys stir up one's emotions.

Chuckles at that litany of non-sequitors that opened up that post.

Instead of pointing out that what “dr.” fair was utterly deplorable on every level, you shared with us the very helpful clarification that she was not talking about some white men, it was “specific” group of white men, as if that made it less deplorable.

“Doctor” Fair is a sick ****, but thanks for clarifying her sociopathic comment.

You can't expect me to take you seriously.

Wow, can’t even get a concession that mutilating a corpse to feed men’s genitals to pigs is deplorable.

Oh wait, not all men’s genitals of course, just a specific group of white men’s genitals. Thanks for the clarification Skeptic Ginger!
