His young daughters were rushed out of the room, and you can't condemn it. Amazing.
Trump Derangement Syndrome is very strong in you.
He doesn't have to explain Trump's actions to his children. Are you responsible for what your CEO does? Put down the Kool Aid, take a breath, and think for a moment. The liberal agitators forced this man's young children to be rushed out of the room.
How many arrests were made at the confirmation hearings of racist maniac Sotomayor? Or Kagan? |

By Rollcall Staff
Posted Jul 13, 2009 6:40 AM
Updated 7:30 p.m.Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor’s confirmation hearings began as many historic happenings do in Congress — with protests and arrests.Capitol Police had arrested four protesters by Monday afternoon. Two anti-abortion activists, Robert M. James and Andrew R. Beacham disrupted the hearing with yells of “Abortion is murder!—James, 48, was arrested shortly before 11 a.m. after he interrupted Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s (D-Calif.) opening statement. Beacham, 27, yelled similar anti-abortion sentiments at about 1 p.m. and was promptly escorted out of the room and arrested.Police spokeswoman Sgt. Kimberly Schneider said Capitol Police later arrested two more protesters at the hearing, 68-year-old Francis Mahoney of Florida and 61-year-old Norma McCorvey of Texas.

4 arrests. compared to what, 80 atbthe kavanaugh hearings? at sotomayors and kagans hearings, how many times did delicratsbget rushed out of the room for safety reasons?
it’s not isolated pete. look at what happened at tea party rallies during the early days, compared to occupy wall street, black lives matter, and now antifa. look at what happens when conservatives get invited to speak at colleges, compared to what happens when liberals try to speak. my side doesn’t riot like your side does, when we don’t get what we want. not everyone in my side is good, not everyone in your side is bad. but in terms of tactics used, and who resorts to mayhem and feral rioting? no comparison. none. and you know it.

It's UNBELIEVABLE. They can never, ever criticize their own side. It's Kavanaugh's fault for bringing his kids to the biggest event of his life, a place where obviously kids should feel safe. |

Oddly enough they later returned to the hearing as usual Faux has turned it into something it’s not
There’s an amendment that came before the one you so staunchly defend that gives us the right to political speech. Sometimes it’s not pretty

I didn’t make a judgment, I asked a question
Who was the lunatic right wing person escorted out of the Twitter hearing, but Faux didn’t cover that

Question his judgement bringing his children, he certainly must have known how rough the initial hearing was going to be.

Why should they support him? From what so have read, he has ruled in favor of corperate interests over the common man just about every time. It’s no surprise to me though.

no one is saying they should support him. what i’m saying, is that you can choose
not to support him, without coming unglued. you can do it calmly and reapectfully, you don’t have to foam at the mouth and howl at the moon. you don’t even have to call him a racist, even though liberals play that card constantly. but they don’t have to. do you agree or disagree?

When someone ignores you, don’t you speak louder to be heard? If you are still ignored , wouldn’t you yell? I would.

Who is ignoring the left? I see Kavanaugh trying to answer every question that is asked.
No one is ignoring liberals, they are just choosing not to vote for you. That will likely change in a few weeks.
Just because democrats are in a major slump, doesn't mean they are being ignored. It means people are listening, they just don't like what they are hearing. |

I also read that he purgured himself in front of the senate a few years back so as soon as the Dems take back the house they could just impeach him on that count.

I don’t think you grasp the situation in these hearings. Brett K could say he eats baby fetus and he would still be confirmed. Massive amounts of documents showing his past rulings have been bared from being used. You think that’s right? I don’t. And I’d yell like mad.

No, he wouldn't. But you can't derail a nomination because he's conservative and because Trump picked him. You need more than that.
Ask him questions about every ruling he has ever written, give him a chance to explain. That's what the hearings are supposed to be. Not having maniacs in the gallery getting arrested by the hundreds, not having woman dressed in red potato sacks for reasons I still don't understand, not shouting him down, and not Corey Booker grandstanding because he wants to make a run in 2020. Stop calling yourself Spartacus for releasing emails that were already published, that isn't all that heroic. |

How about finding emails that the Repubs. originally didn't want to release which directly contradict what he recently has been saying?
Or how about him not being on Trump's (the Fed. society) stated list of judges he would appt. then after the investigation begins his name now magically appears on the list and he moves to the top? Does his views on Pres. power, ect. have anything to do with that?
He will get confirmed regardless. |

No, it doesn't have anything to do with that, and you and I both know that, and here's how we know it. People were literally opposed to the pick, even before Trump announced who it was.
The left knows that unlike the Gorsuch selection, this process will shift the court. They can't handle it. Sorry, elections have consequences. You all loved the first guy to say that.
Sen Grassley is saying that the documents were available online, and that none of the senate democrats bothered to look at them. I don't know who is lying on that. I know that Booker lied about "releasing" classified emails, and he lied about the emails showing Kavanaugh to be a racist. So I think I know who I will give the benefit of the doubt too. And I don't always give it to Republicans, but I know enough about Booker and Blumenthal. |

No, it has everything to do with that - it looks like might have lied about his view on whether Roe v Wade is "settled law" or not and we don't know why he went from not being on the Federalist list to having Trump picking him.
Of course people were opposed to a pick from the other party. That has always been the way. |
