Women cheering this are too stupid to understand the ramifications or too dumb to care. I am really getting tired of a party who claims to speak for "women". You don't speak for ME.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

I believe Gardening was referring to woman who feel this new justice, by remarks and past legal rulings will not be sympathetic to womans issues that may appear before the court....It seems that there is a feeling , by both conservative and liberal woman, that not all things are fair regarding woman rights....salary's, business promotions, medical coverage, roles in thev military..sexual discrimination... Possible u yourself may not feel discriminated in any way or form in your life and if so, congrats...your a lucky lady...However, there is a lot of things that are not equal and to have some one as one of those nine justices who looks favorable on woman rights would be a good thing ...

Understandable. What's not logical is using Kavanaugh as their scapegoat, IMO.

It's going to warm my heart to see Sen Collins replaced by Susan Rice in 2020... It won’t matter...Supreme Court justice is confirmed! One of the main reasons many people voted for trump was to lock up the SC and we did

What is sad is the number of people willing to give up their right of innocent until proven guilty because they were worried about a man with an honorable and respected career as a judge.

Sad to see the GOP and their voters dancing on the graves of women's rights. But it's to be expected, look at the people they support. Rapists, child molesters, money launders, Russian mobsters, wife beaters, drunks, etc. Being classy enough to be a good winner was never going to happen with these people. But they've shown us all who they are, now we know and we'll never forget once the tables are turned. Don't think the rest of us are going to go quietly along with the plan to erase everything women, POC and LGBTQ folks have gained in the last few years.

No. What is sad is the number of women willing to give a spoiled, entitled priviledged male a lifetime job without investigating multiple accusations of sexual misconduct. Even the American Bar Aaociation has withdrawn their support, but the wingnuts are wild with glee

You're relatively new here. You missed the past several years of posts here and in the outside trump world of "Lock her up!" Innocent until proven guilty indeed.

Some of the women here who I've followed are pro life and I see why the are happy with Kavanaugh. I don't give Trump any credit. He was told Kavanaugh may protect him from facing prosecution. Anyone think Trump does anything out of the goodness of his heart or for the people of this country?
The problem I had with Kavanaugh was how he handled himself while being questioning. I believe he apologized later about his partisan attacks on some Senators.

Celebrating the fact that man can still be INNOCENT in the face of totality unproven political motivated accusations! No matter how loud they scream,, does not make it true!! Absolutely!! There was absolutely NOTHING to tie him to her claims. Even people she said were there denied it. Other than the fact that she has a va jay jay and apparently va jay jays don’t lie, no idea how anyone can find him guilty of this I was speaking to a couple of local, democratic judges recently at BFs country club. One absolutely hates trump and even he said if this case came before him he would have tossed it out. Zero evidence.

I’m in the minority with my pro-life beliefs and I understand that. My wanted to tie up the SC with conservative judges had zero to do with abortion.

Agreed re: Roe vs Wade. If people would do their research about Kav, including reading the link I previously posted, it would be helpful.
Also, listening to Collins' speech from yesterday would be also helpful. But, apparently it's easier to remain angry....

And she is far from a far right conservative.

I just didn't like the person I saw answering the boards questions. I'm not angry about anything BTW.

I had aunt who died and a close friend who risked death. It may be an academic “researchy” thing for you, but I’ve been there. I don’t need to do my research. I’ve been there. You have absolutely no idea what you are spouting off about, but I do. Roe was the end of women dying, but I don’t expect you to understand that.

EVERYBODY should start lying under oath. After all, if a Supreme Court Justice can do it, then why not....
My God, talk about the swamp in DC! "Draining the swamp", indeed!

Impressive. welts, you don’t understand the rules If you are a Dem, then lying under oath about a consensual affair will get you impeached If you are a Republican, lying under oath about sexual assault gets you a seat for life on the highest court of the land Got it?
