    Brett Kavanaugh is already a proven liar. After repeatedly perjuring himself in his 2006 confirmation hearings (resulting in a referral by the Judiciary Committee to the Justice Department, which was ignored by Kavanaugh’s buddies at Bush “Justice” Department) and again in his current hearings, he is now accused by a very credible witness of attempted rape. (Dr Christine Blasey Ford, who tried to remain confidential until it became impossible, has taken AND PASSED a polygraph test. Not holding my breath for proven liar Kavanaugh to do the same.)

    Instead of just admitting he was young, drunk and highly remorseful and has changed, Kavanaugh lies and denies. The friend who was there with him, Mark Judge, now a conservative commentator, also denies anything like that happened.

    Yet in Mark Judge’s own book on recovery from alcoholism, he describes how, in his younger years, he and a close friend were drinking heavily, often to blackout. He notes that the two of them were part of a high school “club” that consumed 100 kegs of beer their senior year.

    As reported in the Los Angeles Times: In his senior-class yearbook entry at Georgetown Prep, Kavanaugh made several references to drinking, claiming membership to the ‘Beach Week Ralph Club’ and ‘Keg City Club.’ He and Judge are pictured together at the beach in a photo in the yearbook. (Link below)

    To protect privacy, he used pseudonyms for the school and the individuals referred to.

    The “pseudonym” Judge gave to “protect” the identity of his BLACKOUT drinking buddy?

    Bart O’Kavanaugh.”

    At charitable best, he could say he was blacked out and doesn’t remember.

    But he did it.

    What is a President under investigation, less than two months from a major election, should be allowed to pick a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court, huh Mitch? Isn’t that how that logic works?

    It’s big enough for the presidents posterior.

    Not to mention his salacious wasting of taxpayer money just to try and find dirt on the Clintons when he worked for Ken Starr — who suddenly thinks an impeachment process would be a bad idea.

    We don’t need a liar on the Supreme Court. It’s bad enough we have one in the White House.

    This Republican dump on democracy will hopefully head down the sewer and out into the growing Trump swamp.

    On October 3, Trump will send a FEMA alert to your phone.

    I hope you will text back your appreciation.

    Mike captured that look of rage on Kavanaugh perfectly. That’s the one he always wears when hearing people tell the truth about him. In contrast with the broad smile he puts on when he gets to lie about himself.

    We still have the same sexist Republicans on the panel that were there 40 years ago, Hatch and Grassley.

    They haven’t learned a thing.
