I’ve only just realised how much the word ‘racist’ looks like ‘rapist’.

This case is the PERFECT example why the vast majority of sexual assault victims (men and women) don't report the assault.

That doesn’t make the prevailing witch hunt any more palatable. In criminal justice, power has to be evenly distributed, as much as possible.

Politics at its dirtiest. The whole saga has been disgusting.

This is a job interview, not a court of law. He can be rejected plenty of reasons.

Some of you must hire people. So when a candidate comes in, has accusations like this thrown against him and behaves like an unhinged douchebag in the interview, you just tell him to sign on the line, I guess. Because he's the only qualified candidate and you're just that hard up and desperate, right?

This isn't about what's fair to him or to her, and I don't care. I need the best person for the job. It's MY job to find that person. Those of you who think this guy has been shafted somehow, do you work for a public company whose stock I can short tomorrow?

He can, but if youre asking Republicans to dismiss him based on accusations then those accusations better have some proof behind them.

And he wasn't unhinged. Stop being so hyperbolic.

What's missing from your thoughts here is the wider political context. This wasn't just a Job interview. It was a deliberately delayed job interview focusing on a single accusation whose timing was calculated to delay the process such that the candidate wasn't hired before the upcoming elections where the Dems think they can take control of the upper house and block the nomination.

Sorry but that word play is already claimed by the orange order with papist and rapist ;-)


But yes the words are similar and I had never noticed either

But there is no proof either way to be fully certain, so you ask yourself, do you give such an important role to a man that has potentially raped or atemped to at least?

So on a one time accusation you may think, as a republican we will give the benefit of the doubt, however he has 3 allegations by 3 seperate women.
In that event it in my opinion not possible to make his appointment, until fully cleared of all 3.

People never spin their logic round to see if it still fits.

Ok, the next time there's a Democrat judge going for the SC, do you believe that the Republican Party could definitely not find 3 women anywhere who will accuse them of sexual assault?

Your no evidence based system is unworkable in reality.

What you on about, I just said with no evidence it is normal to give the benefit of the doubt, and witg no wbidence but her word against his then the appointment is down to personal belief on if he is innocent.
Not that he shouldn't be appointed with no evidence, but as there are 3 women seperately having accussed him I personally would fewl uncomfortable giving him the job and that is what the senaters need to dthink on.

Especially as it is a lifetime appoimtment that is difficult to be removed from once in and evidence is foind later on


I would say the same if it was a democrat
