    25 people who could have corroborated the story. Trump made sure the FBI spoke to none of them.

    I trust the NYTIMES far more than your Twitter propaganda you love to post.

    Try 0. 'I heard a rumor' is not corroborating a story. Everyone who could corroborate the story says it never happened or they dont remember .

    This brings up a forgotten hero of this whole debacle. Leland Keyser. She was bullied/threatened to try and corroborate Ford's false story and she never gave in. She knew the story was fake and never caved.

    No it's mostly just corrections/retractions and they obviously all go in one direction.

    Don't care about your news stories, but he still lacks the basic temperament and qualifications to even be considered for the Supreme Court, and all of you Republicans lackeys should still be embarrassed that you so vehemently supported him. Why not someone better? "Only The Best" was the slogan, no?

    I did not want him when he was initially nominated. I wanted Amy Coney Barrett. I actually become more endeared to Kavanaugh during the confirmation process the more made up bullcrap that was put out by desperate leftist trying to destroy the man. I believe Barrett will likely be nominated to the SCOTUS to replace RBG sometime in the next five years.

    No surprise you would simply choose extreme right wing judges, even if it pushes the court dangerously towards one side. And "endearing yourself" to kavanaugh? SMH...

    Speaking of judge barrett...

    I dont fault the NYT for omitting the information. If the desire is to slam kavanaugh then the facts arent relevant. Adding that extra information would hurt their truth.

    The NY Times outed again for simply "making schit up".

    They've been reduced to a laughingstock.

    Bingo.

    The guy looks and acts like a guy who's parents opened every door for him and hits on the waitress at every Smith n Wollenskys he goes to.

    Republicans have good people but they keep elevating these slimeballs and its infuriating.

    I’m shocked! It won’t be long before this thread is flooded with apologies and vows to be better.

    Making stuff up? What did they make up? That someone saw kavanaugh sexually harass someone while drunk at a college party? That the witness went to the FBI but the FBI didn't investigate?

    From the book that was the basis of the NYT article:

    Which would be an improvement from many of the right wing posters here who simply ignore when they are flat out wrong or double-triple-quadruple, down.

    While I think the young Kavanaugh was probably a boor who probably engaged in sexual behavior that bordered on or transgressed into rapey behavior, Democrats have to admit defeat on this fight. Statutes of limitations have all run out so you're not ever going to get any criminal investigation, and an extra-judicial political investigation will be hard even if Democrats were in charge. Sometimes when people do bad things, they get away with it.

    So the media's convinced you that Kav probably engaged in sexual behavior that bordered on or transgressed into rapey behavior.

    The media's mission has been accomplished, despite not having facts.

    You're a sheep.

    Perhaps? They are unnamed, but you shouldn't cast aspersions on people who (reportedly) are telling what they believe.

    But her not wanting to talk to the press or even to be brought out in public about it doesn't mean it didn't happen, especially after she saw what happened to Ms. Blasey-Ford and Ms. Ramirez who both were vilified after their credible accusations.

    What this does reinforce:
    1. kavanaugh was a questionable nominee that should have been vetted much more completely BEFORE being nominated for such an important lifetime position.
    2. kavanaugh should have been vetted much more completely AFTER being nominated.
    3. kavanaugh should have been investigated much more completely AFTER the accusations became known.
