RNC Blasts Kavanaugh Accuser for Working ‘Toward Human Rights’

Sigh.

http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer...an-rights.html

Though she told the New Yorker she was not “politically motivated” to share her story, the RNC presented other details that, they think, call this into question. Specifically, that Ramirez is a registered Democrat and that she “works toward human rights, social justice, and social change.”

In this context, working toward “human rights, social justice, and social change” is a negative quality. The RNC is suggesting that a dedication to such things inherently puts one at odds with the GOP. We already knew that, of course, but it’s nice to see the RNC admit it.

Well, Lindsey Graham put on quite a show. No doubt showing his new pal Donny that he's the "right" fit for Jeffy Sessions' job. I've lost all respect for this ass.

American Bar Association asking Repubes to hold off vote until accusations can be investigated.

An issue I have not seen raised would be the medical vetting of Kavanaugh. I am no doctor or anything, but the marked involuntary tongue movements and repetitive grimacing Kavanaugh showed during some stressful moments in his testimony led me to do a little searching, and it seems possible that these are symptoms of a neurological disorder and/or a drug reaction.
