Not near as left wing as Wonkette. Sometimes as funny.

It's a no-win situation for them, so I understand why.

So, the American Bar Association just petitioned congress to launch a full FBI investigation into the claims against Kavanaugh and to not rush the vote. ABA doesn't do that sort of thing too often. As in, rarely if ever.
Nothing will come of it.

Someone apparently tried to add the drinking game to Devil's Triangle on Wikipedia last night and Wiki rolled it back and locked the page from being edited. A Devil's Triangle, by the way, is a threesome involving two men and one woman.

I don't know what, if anything, "boof" means aside from the suggested definition, especially back in the early 80's. The Devil's Triangle has been a thing for quite awhile though.

Stuff from previous page to reply to.
I agree it didn't look good how Kava... dodged some questions. However some questions were leading and some questions had already been answered by his statement too.

I do think the questions, to get him to admit Ford is not part of a ploy, was good, as I don't think she is handling the ploy, just being used.

It was more or less the dodging of opinion questions, ***that didn't really matter. Like the "Would you prefer Judge testify?" The goading him to request an FBI investigation was understandably dodged because it would have actually put ***on hold.

I get kind of annoyed when someone goes into a Senate hearing and is disrespectful to one side, as Kavanaugh was. Is it understandable? Yes, but that doesn't make the hearing any less formal. I would have expected Kavanaugh's courtroom behavior in this situation and he didn't deliver.

That goes for anyone, I don't think the subject of a hearing should be disrespectful to Republicans OR Democrats. It just makes them look bad.

Hey Give anna a break, cognitive dissonance is a tough obstacle to overcome.

One does not toss away liberalism for reason overnight. Took me a few years after exposure to alternative news before i saw the left for how vile they are.

"Boofing" means an alcohol enema while abusing illicit drugs to increase the effects of the high one gets from something like weed, ecstasy, and cocaine.
I... Er, ok.

That's useless. "We don't agree with this so we aren't voting no, were just not voting at all."
