The Hall of Fire

I now believe Kavanaugh lacks the judicial temperament and character to serve on the Supreme Court. In the last hearing in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee, he was screaming, crying, disrespectful and partisan. Except for the partisan part, if any woman behaved that way, people would blame i...

That's a lot of true statements for something that is false in almost every respect.

The thing about Kavanaugh is, even though he is allowed to say he didn't do it, he is supposed to appear all contrite about anything happening to anyone anywhere ever. Then he is supposed to start promising all sorts of concessions and swear lifelong humility and loyalty to Feminism (tm). C_G, I fe...

In which respect, that it was wrong to let the people decide such an important issue or that Hungary is going to make things difficult for the EU?

Which is precisely what he would do if he had committed the assault and knew it. It doesn’t indicate that he’s innocent. I'd expect him to deny it either way, true. I wouldn't expect him to admit to it. The point was that in the current political climate, he was supposed to deny it AND be contrite ...

I agree.

It is an unusual job interview where you are accused of moral turpitude.

I think most people would react in a negative and emotional manner if accused of what he's accused of.

The problem is the political elite don't want a Brexit. So they are all dragging their feet. Both the UK and the EU are dragging their feet. Some people are thinking it was foolish to let the people actually vote on such an important issue. People are getting frustrated at the pace of leaving. The f...

The anonymous Op-Ed writer just confessed to helping Trump. If Trump is as dangerous as they say, then letting him go ahead with something would expose him to the world very quickly. Instead he's making Trump look better than he actually is. Comparing Trump to Obama, it is very clear. Obama was so v...

In a way, though, it is a case of "believe all women" because Senators who doubted Ford are accused of not believing any women. I consider that claim absurd. Somehow I think those making the claim don't think it is absurd. I looked on my Facebook feed and some progressives are posting abou...

Kavanaugh Hearing and Claims are ABSURDITY and INSANITY - YouTube A rather well thought out analysis by a liberal, who thinks Ford and Kavanaugh are both credible. He disagrees with Kavanaugh based on his record on the 4th Amendment. The video is safe for work. According to this guy, Kavanaugh actu...

I've noticed that belief in the allegation is very tightly bound to party affiliation.

I've also noticed that the more you believe Dr. Ford, the less likely you are to believe Juanita Broddrick - and vice versa.

That's a couple of brilliant posts IdylleSeethes.

There's another incident that deserves attention. Dallas officer in wrong apartment fatally shoots neighbor There's so much wrong with this story. First of all, I used to live in an apartment. More than once actually. Even though the floor layout is the same, if you enter a neighbor's apartment you ...

Whenever police shoot a dog or shoot at a dog and kill or wound a citizen (victims have been as young as five years old), I take them at their word that they were soiling and wetting themselves in abject terror. But that just means that they are cowards and sissies. But anyone with a lick of sense w...

Can I point out that, as per the article I previously posted, there are people out there actually doing research on why people join, and why they leave, hate groups, so we don't actually have to guess and theorize? I'm sure there's no perfect answer given that humans are complicated and hard to pre...

Some interesting recent news about Jeremy Corbyn.

Former KKK wizard David Duke praised Jeremy Corbyn victory
Jeremy Corbyn endorsed by Neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer Media mostly silent about the endorsement

The odd thing is that libertarianism is actually based in an assumption that people don't have the knowledge or expertise to organise things on a large scale, hence their belief in spontaneous order, market forces and organic systems over any sort of planning. So this might be my biology training a...
