ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH. This is more of the artwork of O Demented One, the one whose name shall not be mentioned. Let's focus on how this putridity can be remedied. FRAUD FRAUD FRAUD. PERJURY PERJURY PERJURY. CONSPIRACY CONSPIRACY CONSPIRACY. LIES LIES LIES. Like every contract, a Supreme Court appointment assumes an underlying basis of GOOD FAITH. There is NO GOOD. There is NO FAITH.

Give him a chance, resign or face a readied mob of women prosecutors who will leave him stripped naked and breathless with no one to rescue him this time, as all the cockroaches slide back into hiding now that the lights are finally coming on. Give him 7 minutes to think about it, the length of time that Dr. Ford was terrorized by this rat bastard and his drunken toady seditionist pal. Then let us at him. All of us who have been 15 and cornered, all of us who have raised a daughter past that age. All of us who have friends who still weep decades later about the abject fear and loathing of being trapped in a locked space with a rapist. All of us who have suffered the emotional pain of learning that male classmate, new date, friend of friend, professor, teacher, Uncle, buddy, coach don't view friendship and mentorship quite the same way and will take advantage of a woman who is smaller, vulnerable, less powerful or who got to the party and over-indulged as teenagers will do.

WE WILL TAKE CARE OF THIS LITTLE PROBLEM, America. WOMEN WILL. Men, step the hell aside. WE GOT THIS ONE!!

That may be the best comment anyone has posted to the board here--which is saying something.

When and how do we rid ourselves of this trash?

In 5, we discuss.

I don't know that I can read any more of this.

It is so INCREDIBLY foul, so disgustingly criminal on all fronts that to think approximately half the American people support the party that backed this excrescence of a man and pushed him onto your Supreme Court is simply too distressing. Too appalling. Too frightening.

At the time I found him utterly repulsive and off-putting: there was nothing about him that said he would be a good upholder of the law - and me a foreigner from across the sea ..

Now ?

Now .. well .. now I know my opinion of him and his backers - and his PARTY ! - was grossly understated. I know that there are insufficient pejoratives to describe them all.

It is, and it only gets worse.

It gets worse until someone has the guts, heart and sinew to draw a line and push the fuckers back to Hell where they came from. It is not always easy and it is not always kind but it is

absolutely necessary.

Shawn Colvin was right. Sunny burns things down when she has to. She warns the women and children first. Then she takes care of business.

It is time to take care of business.

The second person's (Jane Doe's) account in that interview is terrifying.

Absolutely love this series of articles. I hate to be so dense, but don’t understand why Dems didn’t make Mark Judge testify in the confirmation hearings? Didn’t have the power to do that? Thanks.
