    It was all good until you got to someone like Kavanaugh Pero.

    DC Circuit Court was also grooming test for SCOTUS Judges. If Kavanaugh could handle that for 12 years and be considered one of the Top Judges in the Country. Clearly he could handle the SCOTUS. Considering even SCOTUS Justices valued his opinion.

    Everyday Americans got an eye and earful as a result of the New Democratic Party's disgraceful actions and activities surrounding the Kavanaugh confirmation process.

    Crazed lunatics screaming and bullying. Unsupported accusations beamed in from Mars. Zombies doing "repeat after me" preparations - one of the creepiest things I've witnessed. Guilty by accusation and no proof.

    Incredible. Of course everyday Americans are shocked. And they have seen first hand how the new left operates.

    Big mistake on the NDP's part.

    At the 3:18 mark:



    Reminds me of this landmark commercial:



    Everyday American's sure as hell won't embrace the future the new left is planning.

    Kavanaugh's victory has exposed the Democrats to the light. They have done a lot of their dirty work under the cover of darkness, but no more. They are now upfront about their corruption and lack of morals. What I don't understand is how any normal Democrat can justify the tactics used by their party. Aren't they turned off and disgusted? I haven't read anything from any Democrat on here who feels that their party is over the top in how far they will go to get what they want. That is a shame. Corey Gardner's wife received a video of a beheading after her husband voted for Kavanaugh. How LOW are Democrats willing to sink? They are depraved and CRAZY!

    Nate Silver is going to have a busy time resetting all those seats that he had leaning to the left now. I am wondering what excuse he will use when the Demos don't win the House.

    Illegitimate POTUS, Illegitimate SCOTUS ... ICE, US Customs, US Border Patrol? Illegitimate. Anyone else seeing a pattern here?

    Well it cost the Dem's the midterms and destroyed credibility of the Democrat parties both the socialist one and the used to be 1/2 sensible one. Those who haven't already abandoning the sinking ship of course.

    Dem's lost 2020 when they fractured into 2 parties and forgot that they lost 2016 because they made the entire election about Trump. They've lost 2020 because they refuse not repeat their mistakes and because angry irrational people who cannot accept responsibility for anything are just like that.

    Kavenaugh will stop the democrats legislating from the bench. I'm sure the left is enraged and disheartened by this but real America just breathed a huge sigh of relief.

    Because with actual Constitutional justices who actually interpret the law, lefties are seperated from their power of liberal activist courts.

    Why, because it has a conservative majority now? Surely you can't be serious.

    What do you mean "keeps" undoing? What has it undone before? And what do you mean "backlash?"

    I don't own a crystal ball, so I'll avoid predictions. One thing appears to be certain, the turnout for a mid-term may be remarkable. People need to get off their butts and vote.

    they've also exposed that their style of governance (rule over the people) is best facilitated by way of executive and judicial decree....which is why they've utterly lost their minds since losing the 2016 presidential election, and over Trump's second SCOTUS confirmation, but took losing the House and Senate in relative stride.

    I'm talking about future actions. If they keep disemboweling accomplishments, the political nature of the Supreme Court will be obvious and there will be a big backlash. Especially because Republicans have cornered themselves into the over 60 white male demographics group.

    Yes. And I said why: historically, the good guys always win in the end.

    Absolutely! Did you think an Administration with no moral compass can keep this up forever?

    No. Because it has a Republican majority.

    Gutted the Civil Rights Act. Legislated to impose individual gun right. Remove campaign financing safeguards.... just some examples. Removing the right of the states to handle their own election results. Just about any decision in which the partisan Republicans voted as a block because it was not supported by precedent.... Look them up. And by backlash I mean an adverse reaction. Especially by the people affected.

    Interesting..... Because, conservative was too broad, it might also include democrats of today? Seriously? I can't literally stop laughing...

    On the backlash thing. what are "adverse reactions"? Are you threatening more Antifa? More rioting? Should we expect that civility as we know it is at risk? Do tell....

    Don't be ashamed. I know other people who also laugh when they learn something everybody else knew a looooong time ago.

    As I have said so many times, I have no problem with conservatives. I have a big problem with ideologues. From either side. But SCOTUS is now controlled by Republican ideologues.

    And of course there are conservatives in the Democratic Party! There have always been. At least as many as Progressives. But they are not ideologues.

    Ah.... The wingnut's favorite code-word when they have no arguments. But no. Antifa is an irrelevant group which would have little impact on... anything.

    Rioting is not unlikely, but not what I'm referring to. You seem to have constructed your own little "theory" in your mind as to what I'm referring to. Which I find hilarious. I wouldn't want to spoil the fun.

    Funny. You should reread what you just posted. I can't make you look in a mirror, but it might make things easier...

    It's leftinistas who use activist judges to change the law instead of Congress.

    It's not about "disemboweling" accomplishments....laws can't violate the US Constitution.

    Well the gloom and doom have to be true, after all, it appeared in the partisan hack Guardian UK.

    Kavanaugh's appointment - the USSC is not an elected office - was done by the rules, therefore there is no question of "separation of powers."

    Democracy becoming a dictatorship would be telling a man he can't be a judge because some woman came forward with an allegation from 36 previous who never filed charges, has no witnesses and no corroborating evidence. What you're suggesting here is we consider Kavanaugh guilty before proven innocent, and if that isn't blatantly defecating on the Constitution, nothing is.

    So you think credibility means denying a judge a seat because of an unsubstantiated claim? On what account should we - in the name of Constitutional protection, no less - consider a man guilty before proven innocent? In only such situations where you politically hate his guts?

    What the article really means....

    The Democrats are so confident their base will vote for them, that they are willing to engage in all manner of disruptive and even unlawful actions to win.
    If Democrats win a majority, our nations will edge closer to fascism then at any time in our history. And you know what? Liberals are ok with that.

    I'm just glad its over. I was getting pretty tired of watching a semi porn circus on TV when it came to the hearings.

    Yes. That is exactly what they are doing.
    I don't think there has ever been a time in this country in which so many people were perfectly okay with just that.
    The left has gone over the line into fascism. Real fascism. In which guilt is assessed differently depending on the politics of the individual. That is exactly what happened.
