So, we're well past the initial Kavanaugh engagements and I can say one thing- the man's behavior during all of this is enough for me to say he doesn't belong on the US Supreme Court.
I was on the fence, before, but now watching how he's acting and the things he's saying- and most importantly the WAY he is saying them makes me believe he's just not Supreme Court Material.
I have a certain expectation of the people on the highest court of the US. Brett Kavanaugh does not meet those expectations.

@Surasanji While I understand your reaction I also have to say if an entire nation was after me over someone lying with no evidence and i had to deal with a full blown trial that also lacked any shred of evidence, I'd probably be pretty cross too. If there was at least some evidence and some sense of credibility to it all I might agree with ya.
@freemo @Surasanji wouldn't a full unhindered investigation by the FBI be the obvious solution? If you are innocent you have nothing to hide. But if you lied under oath or if your other witness won't lie under oath you might want to hamstring that investigation. His demeanour has more to do with having his entitlted crappy behaviour examined.
The previous Trump appointment had no such problems because he was qualified and less a party hack.
As to Graham's tantrum, two words Merril Garland. What the Republicans did there set the precedent.
@Ozmont Depends what a "funn unhindered investigation" means. If we are talking simply about FBI agents talking to people, sure, they should be doing that. If we are talking about search of digital or physical property, well that requires a search warrent, for that you need at east some level of evidence.
So really just depends on what we mean here. But I dont think the argument of "If your innocent you have nothing to hide" is a very good one when it comes to personal liberties. Thats a very dangerous mentality, thats the same train of thought that leads us to state wide surveillance and ease dropping.
