Well, you came awfully close this afternoon!

[!@#$%^&*], I'll settle for paying for his trip to the Betty Ford Clinic. #GetHelpBrett

I hope so, too. I would love for this to go the way I think it should, but I won't hold my breath. Regardless, I hope we all remember everything that happened today, come time to vote in November. Maybe we can't stop Kavanaugh's confirmation, but we could sure as [!@#$%^&*] do something about the men and women who put him there.

Little does anyone know, however, that they're actually discussing whether to tour in support of their new album, which is expected to drop in time for Christmas.

I wouldn't have expected anything less from a man whose last name is "Flake." (Of course, I'm kidding.)

"Kavanaugh's pushback to the suggestion he drank to excess in college is that he got into Yale Law School, so he couldn't have [been] that big of a boozer." Oh, my God. I've known people who were so drunk in college that they didn't even know their own names; and now, one of 'em is in medical school. Again, Brett, what in the hell are you talking about!? "Kavanaugh refuses to answer @CoryBooker's straightforward questions about whether he thinks Ford is part of a left-wing plot" Yet, he just accused everyone and their grandma of conspiring against him in the name of getting revenge for Bill and Hill. Seriously, I'm about to pull a Wendy Williams "I can't" on his ass. IOW, he looks at Sister Harris the way I would look at Angela Lansbury or Susan Lucci. Interesting. He's already held in contempt. Oh, you mean, by the committee! That's when I say, in my best Robin Strasser-esque voice, "I WANT the FBI to investigate. And I want the entire world to know exactly what you are. Which is a liar AND a rapist. Who doesn't deserve to sit on 'The People's Court,' let alone the Supreme Court!"

I saw that much the first time Kamala Harris questioned him about the lawyer from the firm he supposedly couldn't remember chatting with. (So, maybe you have had blackouts after all, your honor?) The whole time she's talking, he was looking at her as if he were thinking, "Shouldn't you be back in the kitchen or something?".

Where the hell are Ron Carlivati and his latex masks when you need them?

Could we convince him to put back on the superhero cape and leather football helmet and sing that "cute" little song one more time? I think we could! (And I'm so glad I wasn't alone in thinking he was drunk.)

BK: "I drank beer with my friends—almost everyone did. Sometimes I had too many beers, sometimes others did. I like beer. I still like beer." Okay. I'm-a tell y'all something, and you're gonna think I'm nuts for saying this, but here goes.... You've noticed how he was guzzling water during parts of his testimony, right? Well, there's a member of my mother's extended family -- a cousin, who's now an associate minister at Mama Khan's old church (although, his ordination papers are still suspect, but that's another story) -- who guzzles water that same way every Sunday when he's sitting behind the pulpit. (You can see it for yourself on one of the congregation member's FB page. Mama Khan and I certainly do.) The reason why he drinks so much water on Sundays? Because, he's JUST coming down from getting [!@#$%^&*]-faced the night before. IOW, my family member is an alcoholic. It's no secret, everyone in the family knows he is. I would not be surprised if Brett were an alcoholic as well. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if he had had a few before giving that testimony.

That Brett Kavanaugh is such a (drama) queen.

LOL!! I keep coming back to the phrase "the lady doth protest too much, methinks." Of course, "the lady," in this case, is a man, and his name is Brett Michael Kavanaugh. He is so enraged at what he sees as a smear campaign that it isn't occurring to him (or maybe it is, as Carl suggests) that he's coming off as a raving lunatic, and someone absolutely capable of rape or attempted rape. Maybe he is playing to Trump and his base. I wouldn't be surprised if he were. And maybe that's just enough to get him confirmed, although I don't think that has ever been in doubt. But, somehow, someway, his "performance" will backfire on him, on the committee, on the GOP as a whole. And I still believe Brett is hiding something. Well, maybe not revenge, per se, but definitely karma. When they came hard and fast for Bill during "Monicagate," it was clear it had everything to do with taking down a couple whom they'd hated from day one, and nothing to do with seeking justice for his alleged victims. You can't be that vindictive without it coming back to bite you. So, what goes around DOES come around, Brett. (Which is actually what I said on this board not TOO long ago, so if it turns out he, too, visits SON, I will never stop laughing, lol.)

Actually, I was hoping it'd be more like when Viki AND Niki testified at Harry O'Neill's murder trial.

You're not flippant, you're telling the truth.

If only Trump had been that way. You know, Judge Kav, now would be a great time to 'fess up. Or flee the country. Whichever works best for you.

Good. He SHOULD feel ambushed. He told America that electing Trump president would be disastrous, then turned around and practically gave the man a b.j. Whatever hell he's got coming to him, he deserves.

I'll bet twenty bucks Brett was drunk and groping all the bridesmaids at the wedding.

If that had been Mama Khan, she would have whipped out the funeral programs. Color AND black-and-white.

"Throwing in the towel"? Hell, she's throwing in an entire set of 'em!

Yes, Lawd!

I always say, where's there smoke, there's fire; and there's a whole lotta smoke in that "baseball tickets debt."

Yes.

It's inside Shyne Coldtrain Jr.'s tweet, which Vee posted upthread. He quoted Jawny Mathis, who referred to the CNN pundit that said Ford was more credible than Hill, because she projected vulnerability where Hill projected strength and poise. It's been my experience that the LAST thing a Black woman will ever do is appear vulnerable before white people. Not when we are no longer chained and bound to the plantations, begging massa not to beat or rape us. Huh-uh, not gonna do it.

"She’s an attractive person." Pardon me, Sen. Hatch, but what the [!@#$%^&*] does that have to do with anything? Are you saying she would have been less credible if she'd been as ugly as homemade sin? Somebody vote this s.o.b. out of office, PLEASE. Amy Siskind's right: the GOP is failing at this, because they give zero [!@#$%^&*] what goes on in the rest of the world that isn't white, straight or male.

Oh, so that was Anita's "problem," eh? She didn't appear "vulnerable" enough.
