Agreed. There's nut job on both sides.

Too many people have little respect for others. It's getting more chaotic over time.

‘I will be ready to kill’: Florida man threatens to shoot senators over Kavanaugh vote, deputies say
https://www.tampabay.com/article/201810 ... /310049619

I'm sure there's some nut on the left saying the same thing somewhere. Crazytown.
We need to get this over with one way or the other and move on. I still say Kavanaugh is the best we're going to get under Trump, and if he continues to rule based on law, as he has in the past, I'm fine with him.

I am disturbed by his not so subtle threat to retaliate against democrats once he's on the bench. That was a stupid thing to say, and he's walked back on that.

I'm glad they got this guy. I fear that there is someone (far right or far left) that's not saying anything and just waiting.

Kavanah's testimony was bizarre. He could've shut down most of the issues by simply stating that he was wild in in youth. He did several things that he regrets and several things he doesn't remember. He could have calmly said that he doesn't remember anything happening with Ford but if he did cross the line, sincerely apologized. He should've have started weeping about his Dad's calendars when he Dad was sitting right behind him, stopped stating how much he liked beer, and not deflected questions with questions. Clinton's name should've never came up.

It almost felt like Kavanagh was reading a script written by Trump at that point.

It would be nice if the court was made up of neither left or right justices. The problem is who ever has the majority, they want their guy that represents their party.
