I watched the ceremonial swearing in of Justice Kavanaugh last
evening. When it concluded I continued watching Chris Matthews and
his liberal "panel" (MSNBC) go apocalyptic, especially about Trump's
apology to
Kavanaugh and his family for having to endure what they went through
and finishing with, "Sir, you were found innocent".

I thought Matthews's head was going to explode along with Eugene
Robinson's.Â* They were attacking Trump with everything they had.

Obviously they totally missed a critical part.Â* Trump's comments
were written by a speechwriter.Â* He was reading them from a teleprompter
displayed on two large monitors in the back of the room.Â* There is no
question that his comments were specifically intended to deliver a
political punch in the nose to the Democrats who had found Kavanaugh
guilty with no collaborating evidence.

Well done.


It's been sad to watch your devolution into a complete Trump fanboy.
Anyone with a reasonable sense of decency recognizes Trump as the
worst human being to ever occupy the Oval Office.

That belief is the cornerstone of your and your party's political fight
to regain some control and power in Congress.Â* Everything you say is
based on that accusation.Â* Trump certainly is different and has his
issues but to declare him the "worst human being to ever occupy the Oval
Office"Â* is arguable at the least and just political bull****.Â* My
judgement of him is based on what he has accomplished as POTUS.



Kavanaugh wasn't found innocent. There was no trial. There wasn't even
a decent investigation of the charges against him. And it doesn't
matter who wrote Trump's little speech because Trump delivered it, and
that makes it Trump's words.

As has been repeated many times over in the past 3 weeks our judicial
system is based on innocence until *proven" guilty. Doesn't necessarily
apply to a court trial.Â* In other words, anyone accused starts out as
being innocent.Â* Despite their best efforts the Dems could not prove
Kavanaugh's guilt.Â* Therefore, he remains innocent despite all the
allegations.

Trump's statement was odd but correct.Â* It was really intended for
Kavanaugh's family, especially his two young daughters, with a bit of a
punch for the Democrats.



If the Dems take the House, there will be serious and substantial
investigations of Trump and his gang of criminal cronies, and that
includes Kavanaugh. There's plenty of evidence Kavanaugh had a habit
of lying to Congress recently and in the distant past, and who really
knows what might turn up with a serious investigation of the sexual
predator charges against him.

I have to admit, though, it is funny to see a sexual predator like
Trump defending another sexual predator like Kavanaugh.

Don't know why you enjoy that sort of thing or find it funny.




It's pretty good irony...one sexual predator defending another.
