Ridiculous.Whether Kavanuagh did what he was accused of, there is plenty of evidence he was a boozy sleaze. There is no such evidence about me. PS. Democrats are irrelevant here. Collins, Heller, Murkowski, and Flake are Republicans. |

Right wingers just want to call Dr. Dord a liar without actually finding out whether there is any truth to her assertions. And meanwhile they accuse Democrats of considering Kavanuagh guilty until proven innocent. It's the Republicans who are trying to prevent the truth, whatever it is, from coming out. |

If you don't believe any woman making such charges, you ARE. More often than not, there is no definitive proof, just a scarred traumatized human being seeking justice for an actual real world criminal wrong.You also aren't recognizing how pervasive this behavior is.

You're only guilty if you're convicted of a crime. Other than that it's the court of public opinion.Bill Cosby isn't going to jail because the court of public opinion said he was guilty. He's going because the court system found him guilty. The Kavanaugh hearings aren't about his guilt but about whether he's suitable to be a SCOTUS judge. |

Well his roommate probably got bullied into drinking. He's not Irish-Catholic.It's funny how alcohol is such an important part of Kavanaugh's Irish-Catholic existence. I think all white northern Europeans are genetically predisposed to greater alcohol consumption than other ethnic groups. |

What we are all losing sight of is that many of these hypocrite senators and representatives have much larger and more recent skeletons in their closet. For example defrocked john Conyers who sexually harassed his staffers and then paid them with hush money from a fund funded by taxpayers. How many other members of Congress have dipped into that fund? There must be a reason why those records are sealed. I won't even get into our Junior NY Senator who earned millions working for Harvey Weinstein or the hypocrites like diane Feinstein who supported Hillarious Clinton who attacked women who charged her husband with all manner of sex crimes. Yet these hypocrites see themselves to be fit to sit in judgement of Judge Kavanaugh. |

Quite a list!2010–2018 Further information: 2017–18 United States political sexual scandals, Donald Trump sexual misconduct allegations, and Stormy Daniels–Donald Trump scandal Eric Massa, Representative (D-NY), resigned to avoid an ethics investigation into his admitted groping and tickling of multiple male staffers. He later stated on Fox News, "not only did I grope [a staffer], I tickled him until he couldn't breathe," (2010)[125][126] Mark Souder, Representative (R-IN), a staunch advocate of abstinence and family values,[127][128] resigned to avoid an ethics investigation into his admitted extramarital affair with a female staffer. (2010)[129][130][131] Chris Lee, Representative (R-NY), resigned hours after a news report that he had sent a shirtless picture of himself flexing his muscles to a woman via Craigslist, along with flirtatious e-mails.[132] He did not rely on a pseudonym or a false e-mail address but used his official Congressional e-mail for all communication. Lee said: "I regret the harm that my actions have caused my family, my staff and my constituents.... I have made profound mistakes and I promise to work as hard as I can to seek their forgiveness."[133] (2011) Anthony Weiner, Representative (D-NY), admitted to sending sexually explicit photos of himself to several women through his Twitter account.[134] He resigned from Congress on June 16, 2011,[135] but kept sexting after his resignation.[136] (2011) On Nov 6, 2017, Weiner began serving a 21-month sentence for sexting a 15 year-old girl.[137] Scott DesJarlais, Representative (R-TN), admitted under oath to at least six affairs, including two affairs with his patients and staffers while he was a physician at Grandview Medical Center in Jasper, TN. Additionally, while running on a pro-life platform, DesJarlais made his ex-wife have two abortions, and tried to persuade a mistress who was his patient, into an abortion as well.[138][139][140] David Wu, Representative (D-OR), resigned from the House of Representatives after being accused of making unwanted sexual advances toward a fundraiser's daughter. July 26, 2011.[141][142] Herman Cain (R) 2012 Republican presidential candidate, was accused of sexual harassment by several women. These accusations eventually caused him to suspend his run for the presidential nomination (2012)[143][144] including Sharon Bialek, Karen Kraushaar, and having a 13-year affair with Ginger White.[145][146] Donna Donella also reported possible inappropriate behavior.[147][148][149] Vance McAllister, Representative (R-LA), who is married and the father of five, was caught on surveillance camera deeply kissing a married staffer. Several prominent Republicans asked McAllister to resign. In response, he stated he would not seek re-election in 2016.[150][151] McCallister said: "There's no doubt I've fallen short and I'm asking for forgiveness. I'm asking for forgiveness from God, my wife, my kids, my staff, and my constituents who elected me to serve". (2014)[152] Matthew P. Pennell (R) staff for US Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS) of the Tea Party, was arrested on 17 counts of alleged child sex crimes. He was sentenced to 12 months in prison (2015)[153][154][155][156] Blake Farenthold, US Representative (R-TX) was reported to have paid $84,000 of taxpayer money, via the House of Representatives Office of Compliance, to settle a sexual harassment complaint from a former staffer. Farenthold's former communications director Lauren Greene sued the congressman in December 2014,[157] and a settlement was reached in 2015. The identity of Farenthold with respect to taxpayer involvement was made public in 2017. This was the first documented case of taxpayer funds being used to settle sexual harassment complaints against a member of Congress. (2014)[158] Dennis Hastert, former Speaker of the United States House of Representatives (R-IL), pled guilty to structuring bank withdrawals in order to conceal deliberately-unspecified misconduct by Hastert against an unnamed individual years earlier.[159] At a sentencing hearing in October 2015, Hastert admitted that he had sexually abused boys while he worked as a high school wrestling coach decades earlier. (2015)[160][161] Donald Trump (R), the 45th President of the United States, was accused of sexual assault by 13 women during the 2016 election and he denied the allegations.[162] The allegations arose after The Washington Post released a 2005 video of Trump, recorded on a hot microphone by Access Hollywood, in which he brags about groping women.[163][164] "[165] Trump himself renewed the controversy a year later by alleging that the video was fake,[166] to which Access Hollywood replied, "Let us make this perfectly clear — the tape is very real. Remember his excuse at the time was 'locker-room talk.' He said every one of those words."[167][168] Tim Murphy, Representative (R-PA), had an extramarital affair with Shannon Edwards, a 32-year-old forensic psychologist.

So it would be smart to open a bar in a Russian or Polish neighborhood?LOL! I think alcohol is a major part of Irish-Catholic, British, Swedish and German culture. Those are the people I'm most familiar with. My Italian and Jewish friends get the gout and when they remove alcohol it goes away. My Irish-Catholic, German and Swedish friends are so genetically adapted to alcohol they don't get the gout from alcohol. |
