Report: Kavanaugh won’t commit to recusal from Trump/Mueller related matters

It is strange to think that evidence (or the lack thereof) of later abuse by the alleged abused is probative as to whether allegations of prior abuse are true?

It’s strange for a lawyer to say a crime only counts if someone commits it more than once.

So as a single-incident rapist, things are looking pretty good for me in court? sweet man Im going to out and get my one rape in cause my clean record before and after it are going to be my iron-clad defense
 
Negative. What it is is that so many Democratic wigs and wheels have gone down the shitter these last 2 years.

Being the slime balls they are the Dems have sought to transfer their own transgressions in a display of deflection and denial.

Or, and just stay with me here, maybe the Dems actually care about eradicating sexual assault and harassment from society and, through the #MeToo movement and other forces, are doing their best to make sure those transgressors are removed from their positions of power where they were able to exploit women. And now they are just asking Republicans whether they want to hold themselves to the same standard.
 
No, dude.

I’m saying abusers often abuse more than once.

So if they only sexually assault someone once, then it's OK because it was just the one time?

Imagine if a person murdered someone, it was discovered 30 years later, and then tried to defend themselves in court by saying, "I only murdered the one time, I haven't done it since."
 
Grassley has relented on Monday and offered Wednesday, but demands that no other witnesses appear and that no Republican Senators will ask questions.

What a wuss? Make those Republican men ask questions! If this is a true attempt to get to the truth, there should be other witnesses.
 
Yes, this is exactly what I am saying. :eyeroll:

Then what’s your point? More accusers mean it’s more likely it happened? If so, do you think it would matter to Republicans?
 
It’s just rich white male privilege on display, think about all the shitty things that you know about that happened at Wake with no serious repercussions.
 
Junebug, why doesn’t Grassley want them to ask questions? That seems really strange to me in a good faith investigation, no?

Kavanaugh will be on the Court. There’s no doubt this is all for show, but why not ask questions?

Looks like want to hire a lady to ask questions so they don’t look bad.

What sort of bullshit are you pedaling here? Have you read Grassley’s letter? Of course not

U r F-O-S

You know damn well the harpies would be out in full force if a man is assigned..particularly if he is Caucasian.

You know, with all crackers being blue eyed devils and such
 
It’s not a terrible point and I will make it again—the fact that no other person has accused BK of sexual assault over his 53 years makes this accusation less believable. If more come forward, I would expect you to be making a corollary claim, and you would be right to.

Does it make it less likely that it never happened or that he felt remorse and learned from his mistake?

It's hard to take that seriously coming from a Trump supporter. He has 15 accusers and his "grab 'em by the pussy" admission of guilt. You're just throwing reasons around to defend Kavanaugh.

To be fair, I don’t think JB is a trump supporter. He’s just willing to compromise almost anything for a conservative court.
 
Care to seriously answer the question about Grassley’s motivations? Doesn’t seem particularly conservative to allow lawyers to carry out the actions of folks voted on by states.
