And more deceit from Judge Kavanaugh as well as some information that at least suggests that she had lingering uncomfortable feelings about him well before this!

Had to know we would see something like this

https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/30/us/cristiano-ronaldo-rape-allegations-lawsuit/index.html

So you think Ronaldo spent half a million dollars for no reason?
($375K for her, and those professional reputation protection rackets don't come cheap)

As with Trump, rich people tend to pay off their discards when their behavior is too offensive/illegal.  Another reason some women are never heard from and powerful males avoid guilt and punishment.

What I learnt from this forum today;

. Never have sex with a real woman before marriage.
. Never go home with or take home/to hotel a woman from a niteclub etc...no matter how much she's sidling up to you and making goo goo eyes at you.
. Never be alone with a woman who is not your wife.
. Hush money contracts are not worth the paper they're written on.

My guess is that robot ladies are becoming more appealing by the day.
Maybe why real women seem scared of them.

The donald is unsuited, it happens in history. The Cardinals selected a nazi supporter and a former nazi as Pope. The Germans selected a massive serial killer as their leader. Whats scary, for the Publicans although not quite there it keeps getting worse. From Reagan to Bush 1, to bush 2, to the Donald. Both parties seem to be pushed into the fringe area. Yeah, yeah a drunken rapist for the SC. After all the research did he have to go there?

Kavanaugh caught in another lie. He was trying to silence/influence classmates ahead of the Ramirez story (as early as July) when he told the Senate he didn’t know about those accusations until the story came out in the New Yorker:

Kavanaugh was asked, under oath, if he’d ever gotten aggressive while drinking. His response was: “I think the answer to that is basically no.”

Apparently, throwing beer in another man's face while drinking and then being in a brawl, such that you got questioned for it by the police qualifies as "basically no."

Good to know, Judge Kavenaugh.


Kiid, like I said: he's a liar.

You probably mean he HAS at a point in time "lied"  Ok, rock on.

Fascinating update kiidcarter8. Keep them coming.

BTW, “Dems view” of the investigation being inappropriately influenced and narrow forced the “President” to back off yesterday. But you wouldn’t see that on FOX news.

Trump has been "backed off" all along.

The press initially attributed stances to Trump and "The White House" that were not accurate.

Michael Gerson's politics are not mine and I certainly am not a man of faith like he is, but there is no stronger advocate for the separation of church and state than he is and today's column is, I think, the best he's ever written.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/as-jesus-said-nice-guys-finish-last/2018/10/01/22b954ea-c599-11e8-b1ed-1d2d65b86d0c_story.html?utm_term=.3d43e13172f6

I know it might well be a paywall for you, Kid, but don't worry.  It's longer than 280 characters and there are several big words used.  You can skip it.

GOP Wins

The problem with the USA is not that people are poorly educated, it’s that they are misinformed.  There is a thriving biosphere of misinformation serving big outlets and small (Facebook is now essentially FOX on steroids) that means people like kiodcarter8 and REDSTATEWARD don’t ever have to venture out of that bubble into the real world to confront facts or views that don’t support their bias. I mean, those two are helpless, but I’m sure there are plenty of others without high school degrees capable of making the right or at least informed choices if. It surrounded by shit information.

Vote for the GOP, fine. But do so knowing what they stand for, what they want this country to be. Vote for them knowing the tax cuts are a giveaway to their donors not a boon for middle class wages. Do so because you don’t like immigrants, not because you think they raise crime rates. Do so because you want to keep the Whites over Blacks power structures in place, not because you think the Left supports the “genocide” of White people (Tucker Carlson last night)

This is my central frustration with Republicans. Take responsibility for your shitty views. As with Kavanaugh...If you can’t win without lying and/or misrepresenting yourself, then you shouldn’t win.
