    dude is yelling.
    also, claiming democrats concocted this whole thing with zero evidence is...troublesome, to say the least.

    Hopefully you're never accused of something and have people expect you to prove your innocence.

    people this credibly accused of something like this are rarely innocent.
    i'm extremely confident that will never happen to me.
    i'm sure she's just lying for the death threats, tho.

    This reminds me when Judge Kavanaugh was asked at his first hearing whether he believed the women* who had accused his former boss and mentor (Judge Kozinski) of sexual misconduct.

    "I have no reason not to believe them" was what he said.

    *(I am one of those women.)

    The philosophy is the same whether it's a justice system or a job interview. The prosecutorial system is based on our belief as a society that it is better to see the guilty go free than the innocent be punished. The inquisitorial system is based on the belief as a society that it's better for the innocent to be pushed than the guilty to go free.

    If you believe as a philosophy that it's better for the guilty to go free than the innocent be punished, you'll apply that philosophy whether you're building a criminal justice system or conducting job interviews.

    I don’t know what the **** you are talking about, but it’s not related to the issue at hand and certainly not more than a melodramatic emotional outburst.

    kavanaugh isn't going to jail. no one is looking for a perpetrator and potentially arresting the wrong person in this scenario. that's a major difference.
    he's potentially being denied privilege to one of the most important jobs in the country based on previous poor judgement. he's also overwhelmingly partisan. Ford is not.
    i understand he isn't accustomed to facing consequences, but nothing about what Dr. Ford testified to today comes off as a lie. This wasn't something she concocted last week.

    don't remember discussing if watching porn was immoral? you certainly felt that way years back.
    i suppose once people in your political party are accused (and admit to, even) sexual assault, none of that matters, tho.
    you've jumped off the high horse to lie in sewage with your president.

    To put it mildly, this hearing isn't working for GOP. Dems are asking big, meaningful questions.

    What do you remember? What did you feel? Could it have been anyone else?

    Getting big, meaningful answers. GOP's Mitchell focusing on little stuff. Huge contrast.

    Dr. Ford’s father, Ralph Blasey IV, a Republican, is on the board of Columbia Country Club

    because he believes he will lose his position with the country club.
