You need to make a list of proven lies from both.
Ford is not a nominee for SCOTUS. There is just a BIT of difference in the level of the vetting for SCOTUS as opposed to vetting whether she lied or not. Besides there are a number of different angles K lied about AND temperment is a vital issue. The fact you are so brainwashed to want K to be confirmed you KNOW he lied but don't care. For you a politicized SCOTUS appointee is GREAT idea. The reality is the REAL world wants an independent SCOTUS who judges issues without regard to political pressure.
K is NOTHING like that. His recent vote on a case involving a 17 yo pregnant girl proves that quite clearly. He KNEW in Texas where the girl comes from after the 21st week an abortion there was illegal which is what the case was all about. Whether people hate the idea or not, it is actual law, Roe V Wade decided that decades ago.
So there were 3 judges and the other two judges on that panel outvoted K and she got her abortion. Now I understand you would have voted the same way as K if you were the judge but he was wrong and not just a little wrong, he was wrong on a deep legal level and he knows it. In spite of that he tried every tactic he could come up with delays which he clearly hoped would last long enough to get her to week 21 when abortion in Texas would be illegal.
It didn't work ONLY BECAUSE there were real human beings on that panel besides this creep Kavanaugh.
He is SO clearly political he should not be county dog catcher much less a lifetime appointment to the highest bench in the land.
Exactly what do you not understand about that?
Why do you think there was none of this conspiracy for the other Trump appointees?
The ONLY reason Trump put K up was to get a get out of jail free card.
Any other political agenda K would have is just cream on the pie for Trump.
Why don't you think about the OTHER folks on the short list that Trump could have chosen?
Mitch McConnell even said there will be problems with Kavanaugh's nomination when he first heard about it and he is about as right wing as Ghengis Khan.
He KNEW about problems with Kavanaugh and should have been listened to.
If Trump had picked ANYONE else it would have gone through with no problem.
Why can't you understand that?
