Despite Kavanaugh's "lack of character, credibility, and candor," MediaMatters points out the absurdity of Kavanaugh being appointed to the Supreme Court:
Picture this: A controversial, deeply unpopular president mired in scandal makes a Supreme Court nomination that his party is desperately trying to jam through the process before virtually anything is known about the nominee. Then, in the middle of it, an anonymous senior official in the president’s administration pens an op-ed in The New York Times that lays out serious questions about the president’s fitness for office and the dangers he poses to the country. You’d think that conversation in the media would focus on the fact that this president -- who is so unstable that his own senior staff members are sounding the alarm -- is about to make a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court.
You’d be wrong.
Despite the fact that Republican Senate Judiciary Committee chair Chuck Grassley, only requested only 10 to 15 percent of documents available on Kavanaugh's time in the White House, as MediaMatters has pointed out. Has made a complete mockery of our politics.
But having said that, Grassely went on Hugh Hewitt's radio program, and had the audacity to claim that with all this shit surrounding Brett Kavanaugh, including the accusation of sexually assaulting someone in high school. He, Grassely, is the true victim.
Splinter News points out where Grassely maid this claim, at 5:45 minutes into the interview:
Well, journalists are very insensitive to Chuck Grassley, because I’m the only chairman when it says Chairman Grassley, chairman of the aging, or chairman of the Judiciary Committee, 84 years old, they never say that [Lamar] Alexander, chairman of the Health Committee, is 64 years old [ed. note: Alexander is actually 78 years old]. So there’s already discrimination against me, so there is a possible discrimination out there. And we have to consider all those things. We hope that everyone in the room treats the hearing with the seriousness that it deserves, and including the public.
The victim is a women who has accused of being sexually accused. The victim won't be all the women and girls in this country who will have their bodies regulated by the government, in a purely double standard way, where men will be 1st class citizens-women 2nd. The victim is an old white men. Shocking that a right winger would feel that way.
On the sympathy front, Brett Kavanaugh is not one to feel sympathy for others. As was noticed when he "snubbed" a Parkland father who held his hand out to politely give a handshake to Kavanaugh.
Fred Guttenberg lost his daughter Jamie Guttenberg in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school shooting, and after the first day of the hearings he offered his hand out to Kavanaugh, Kavanaugh looked at him, and walked away without shaking his hand:
After the interaction, Fred Guttenberg tweeted:
Sorry Fred, you don't have it as rough as Chuck Grassely..
