Whatever It Takes, by Ann Coulter

Posted on October 4, 2018 | Leave a comment

The case against Brett Kavanaugh is falling apart. From Ann Coulter at anncoulter.com:

The Democrats’ current position on the Supreme Court nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh is: We cannot have someone addicted to beer on our highest court! What if a foreign power were to ply him with this nectar in a can? Talk about taking control of our government! Suppose they throw in a case of Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier?

A bitter college roommate is going whole hog, wailing, He lied about being a beeraholic.

By the media’s account, Kavanaugh was a bounder, a brawler and a drunk. And yet he still managed to graduate at the top of his class, go to Yale, then to Yale Law and work in the highest positions in government.

Christine Ford vs. Brett Kavanaugh: Two Definitions of “Credibility”, by Jack Kerwick

Posted on October 4, 2018 | Leave a comment

How can Christine Ford be considered credible? From Jack Kerwick at lewrockwell.com:

To hear numerous GOP and GOP-friendly (“conservative”) commentators tell it, both Christine Ford and Brett Kavanaugh are highly “credible.”

Of course, none of these pundits claim to believe that Ford was telling the truth when she claimed that she was sexually assaulted by Judge Kavanaugh.  What they claim to believe is that she was indeed sexually abused—but by someone else.

Aristotle, the Father of Western logic, identified numerous fallacies. One of these is the fallacy of equivocation.

This is the fallacy of which those of Kavanaugh’s defenders who simultaneously find Ford “credible” stand convicted.

Dress Rehearsal for Impeachment, by Patrick J. Buchanan

Posted on October 1, 2018 | Leave a comment

If you think Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s hearings are ugly, imagine an impeachment proceeding for President Trump. From Patrick Buchanan at buchanan.org:

Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court was approved on an 11-10 party-line vote Friday in the Senate Judiciary Committee. Yet his confirmation is not assured.

Sen. Jeff Flake, Republican of Arizona, has demanded and gotten as the price of his vote on the floor, a weeklong delay. And the GOP Senate has agreed to Democrat demands for a new FBI investigation of all credible charges of sexual abuse against the judge.

Astonishing. With a quarter century in public service, Kavanaugh has undergone six FBI field investigations. They turned up nothing like the charges of sexual misconduct leveled against him these last two weeks.

In his 30 hours of public testimony before the judiciary committee prior to Thursday, no senator had raised an issue of a sexual misconduct.

Rachel Mitchell Memo Highlights Weaknesses In Ford Testimony, Exonerates Kavanaugh, by Tyler Durden

Posted on October 1, 2018 | Leave a comment

Based on what we’ve seen so far, if the Senate hearing were instead a courtroom, the case wouldn’t make it to a courtroom. No  prosecutor would touch Christine Ford’s wholly uncorroborated case with a ten-foot pole. From Tyler Durden at zerohedge.com:

Rachel Mitchell, the veteran sex crimes prosecutor who was chosen by the GOP to question Christine Ford and Brett Kavanaugh, sent a memo to Republican senators calling Ford’s allegations a “he said, she said” case that “is even weaker than that.”

In her 5-page memo (at the bottom of this article), Mitchell wrote that she was presenting her “independent assessment” of the allegations. She said this was based on her independent review of the evidence and her nearly 25 years of experience. She alleged in the document that “the activities of Congressional Democrats and Dr. Ford’s attorneys likely affected Dr. Ford’s account.”

Going Full Porn, by James Howard Kunstler

Posted on September 24, 2018 | Leave a comment

Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation or non-confirmation should establish once and for all if an accusation absent other proof is enough to derail a proposed appointment. It shouldn’t be. From James Howard Kunstler at kunstler.com:

The Resistance didn’t quite hit it out of the park with Christine Blasey Ford. After all, how effective for the purpose of character assassination is a claim of “attempted rape” without even a when-and-where piece of the story? So the DC Dem-Progs have gone to their bench and found a real thumper in Deborah Ramirez who steps forward now with the ultimate giant-killer story of Brett Kavanaugh “thrusting his penis in her face and causing her to touch it without her consent,” (as reported in The New Yorker Magazine by Ronan Farrow, America’s self-appointed great white penis-hunter, and estranged son of filmmaker Woody Allen, infamous, reputed penis-mishandler).

A Helpful Reminder Why Due Process Matters, by Ann

Posted on September 22, 2018 | Leave a comment

Give Christine Blasey Ford her case and assume her accusation is true. Why should someone be kept off the Supreme Court for a mistake they made when they were seventeen? What age is too young and how much time and exemplarary behavior have to occur before the hounds are called off? This article asks neither question, but SLL does. Instead, this article reminds us what happens when due process is tossed out the window. From Ann at politicalinsider.com:

Somewhere between the creation of the Magna Carta and now, leftists have forgotten why due process matters; and in some cases, such as that of Judge Brett Kavanaugh, they choose to outright ignore the judicial and civil rights put in place by the U.S. Constitution.
