The Kavanaugh situation - today's thoughts

1.) Ronan Farrow, who had established himself as a good investigative journalist, has badly discredited himself with the New Yorker piece, which NBC, the New York Times and the Washington Post took a pass on.

2.) Ramirez huddling with her leftist lawyer for several days to "assess her memories" is about as lame as it gets.

3.) This, several paragraphs in:

One of the male classmates who Ramirez said egged on Kavanaugh denied any memory of the party. “I don’t think Brett would flash himself to Debbie, or anyone, for that matter,” he said. Asked why he thought Ramirez was making the allegation, he responded, “I have no idea.” The other male classmate who Ramirez said was involved in the incident commented, “I have zero recollection.”

In a statement, two of those male classmates who Ramirez alleged were involved in the incident, the wife of a third male student she said was involved, and three other classmates, Dino Ewing, Louisa Garry, and Dan Murphy, disputed Ramirez’s account of events: “We were the people closest to Brett Kavanaugh during his first year at Yale. He was a roommate to some of us, and we spent a great deal of time with him, including in the dorm where this incident allegedly took place. Some of us were also friends with Debbie Ramirez during and after her time at Yale. We can say with confidence that if the incident Debbie alleges ever occurred, we would have seen or heard about it—and we did not. The behavior she describes would be completely out of character for Brett. In addition, some of us knew Debbie long after Yale, and she never described this incident until Brett’s Supreme Court nomination was pending. Editors from the New Yorker contacted some of us because we are the people who would know the truth, and we told them that we never saw or heard about this.”

4.) Ford says she's afraid to fly. Did she stay put in Hawaii the whole time she was attending the state university there?

5.) She wanted to stall in order for creatures like Ramirez and Avenatti to enter the fray.

6.) Grassley's effort to accommodate Ford was impressive last week. Give her enough rope. But giving her until Thursday of this week was a conciliatory gesture too far.

7.) Michael Avenatti's charge of high-school-rape-gangs is not only ludicrous but should result in his disbarring.

8.) Democrats are savages. They have dog vomit where normal people have souls. They think it's a hoot that they are scarring Kavanaugh's children for life, destroying our social fabric, our Constitutional order, and anything recognizable as the United States of America.

9.) This is all about protecting the "right" to rip people's limbs from their torsos and vacuum the brains out of their skulls. That right must be protected because leftist women resent being of the gender with bodies in which people gestate. They see God's sacred design for them as an inconvenience that gives them a more limited set of options than men have.

10.) Senate Republicans have to confirm Kavanaugh. If they don't, they will face a bloodbath in November. They'll be living up to the image of fecklessness Pubs have had for decades. They'll be showing that they really don't understand that this is war of the most ruthless and brutal sort. LITD has always found and still finds Donald Trump objectionable (see next post - the one on tariffs), but listen up, you dweeby little twits, this is how we got him.
