This is great stuff!


May I just respectfully say I don't give a f**k about my cost of living if it means risking a rapist supreme court justice?

No one is accusing Kavanaugh of rape.

The accusation is that when he was 17 and drunk, he put his hands on a 15 year old, and had impure thoughts.


Trying to rip off someone's clothes is a whole freaking lot worse than "impure thoughts" & you know it.

Good luck sleeping. :evil:

She never said he did that.

Kavanaugh "groped me and tried to take off my clothes," Ford said.

So he touched her, and tried to take off her clothes (not rip them off).

Probably a pretty common teenager thing to do.

So paraphrasing means it's not attempted rape?

What the hell are you talking about? Age does not excuse a damn thing this guy did, it only changes the possible charges.

The mere fact that you're OK with these questions ahead of the nomination disgusts me.

Wouldn't he take his pants off if he was attempting to rape her?

Sounds like they were making out on the bed.

Why don't you ask a rapist if they're thinking purely every time they pull up their pants?

Are you saying I'm the one making out with you if you're holding me down?

Holding someone down is not "attempted rape".

Here's my question; do you just hate abortion enough to normalize rape fantasies?

You know a lot of people have rape fantasies and never become actual rapists or decide that they want to be raped by a rapist.

Fantasizing about rape is a lot different than committing the actual act itself.

I'm well aware & I don't see anyone answering my question.

I'm sorry I don't understand what abortions have to do with rape fantasies. :? :?:

Neo-conservatives want Supreme Court majority in order to block Roe v. Wade legal abortion access & don't mind suspicion of rape on the part of their nominee. Or did I miss something?

Lindsey Graham promises 'full scale' probe into Democrats' handling of Ford-Kavanaugh allegation

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., vowed Sunday to launch a thorough inquiry into Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee to find out whether there was any wrongdoing in how they managed the sexual misconduct allegation Christine Blasey Ford leveled at Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

"We're going to do a wholesale, full scale investigation of what I think was a despicable process to deter it from happening again," Graham said during an interview on ABC News' "This Week."

I could care less about anyone fantasizing about rape just as long as they don't actually commit rape.

If he really committed rape he is a monster.

You're still evading the answer.

Hmm. Conservatives more offended by the accusation than by the act. Not surprising. It's their classical M.O.
