Whatever happened to the 100's of bills that hit harry reid's desk that he never allowed to be acted upon? He should be in prison.

Hmm, . . . and how do Democrats roll ?
Well, . . . f'rinstance, . . . they are following the orders of the self-appointed Minister for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda, Maxine Waters:
"If you see anybody from that [President Trump's] Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere."
There are historical precedents for such ministries and such orders, . . . and the results are not generally uplifting and enlightening.
In fact, poor old DonDiego cannot think of a Republican who is anything like Maxine Waters; she is singularly unbalanced.
I can't imagine DonDiego thought very hard. This is the man he pulled the lever for president:
"“The guards are very gentle with him. He’s walking out, like, big high-fives, smiling, laughing,” Trump continued, before saying to loud cheers: “I’d like to punch him in the face, I tell ya.”
The incident was the latest in a string of controversial comments by Trump regarding protesters at his rallies. In November, after a Black Lives Matter protester was beaten and choked after disrupting a rally, Trump appeared to condone the rough treatment.
“Maybe he should have been roughed up, because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing,” he said on Fox News at the time.
"I don’t expect the Supreme Court to have much legitimacy going forward"
Why?

Why?
Because there is a guy on it that flagrantly perjured himself at his confirmation hearing and in what is supposed to be a non-partisan position promised payback for a makebelieve left-wing conspiracy against him led by the Clintons. He is also a serial sex offender. It is hard for 60-70% of the country to legitimize someone like that no matter how hard Republicans whitewash him. I believe there are quite a few corroborating witnesses that will come forward in the coming Congressional hearings that will testify under oath to both the sexual assault allegations and the perjury allegations.
Nevermind the perjury - Republicans sure dont. kavanaugh flipped out at his hearing citing a conspiracy theory with no basis in fact and followed it with a threat to all Democrats once he takes the bench.
DonDiego might have said something earlier about "unstable people" or something...
Our new justice bought and paid for by the Heritage Foundation:
“This whole two-week effort has been a calculated and orchestrated political hit, fueled with apparent pent-up anger about President Trump and the 2016 election, fear that has been unfairly stoked about my judicial record; revenge on behalf of the Clintons and millions of dollars in money from outside left-wing opposition groups.
“This is a circus. The consequences will extend long past my nomination. The consequences will be with us for decades. This grotesque character assassination will dissuade confident and good people of all political persuasions from serving our country, and as we all know, in the political system of the early 2000s, what goes around comes around.”
Justice Kavanaugh later apologized in the right-wing editorial section of the Wall Street Journal assurring its readers that he didn't really mean all that and declaring he is an impartial judge. Whew! I feel better already
Because there is a guy on it that flagrantly perjured himself at his confirmation hearing - He did? He admitted he drank beer & got drunk in college; some other clown said tht was not true, but that statement is unsubstantiated
and in what is supposed to be a non-partisan position promised payback for a makebelieve left-wing conspiracy against him led by the Clintons. - based on a vague statement
He is also a serial sex offender. - Proof?
Retired Conservative Supreme Court Justice, John Paul Stevens, disagrees. He initially endorsed Kavanaugh's appointment but withdrew it after the aforementioned comments saying it was disqualfying.
Not even other Conservative justices will get Tom's back
and this
Justice Stevens said he came to the conclusion reluctantly, changing his mind about Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination after the second round of the judge’s confirmation hearings last week. Judge Kavanaugh’s statements at those hearings, Justice Stevens said, revealed prejudices that would make it impossible for him to do the court’s work, a point he said had been made by prominent commentators.
“They suggest that he has demonstrated a potential bias involving enough potential litigants before the court that he would not be able to perform his full responsibilities,” Justice Stevens said in remarks to retirees in Boca Raton, Fla. “And I think there is merit in that criticism and that the senators should really pay attention to it.”
“For the good of the court,” he said, “it’s not healthy to get a new justice that can only do a part-time job.”
Stevens was one of the most liberal justices on the court & like a good liberal he falls in with the party line. His biased opinion means nothing

He said he never drank until he blacked out. He made up nonsensical definitions for the Devil's Triangle, Ralph Club, FFFFFF, boofing and so on. That is perjury. He said under oath in his first hearing that he never demeaned a female in his entire life. Then when the Renate alumni thing was made public he perjured himself again to cover up his earlier perjury and said it was a term of endearment. The proof is coming Tom. Ramirez said she gave the FBI a list of 15 witnesses some of whom were present in the room when she was sexually assaulted. Trump didn't allow them to be interviewed.

A lifelong Republican that was nominated to the court by Gerald Ford.
