Fake Jesus, Make It Stop


Brett Kavanaugh's support gang is not looking real supportive.

 But let's talk about how eleven Shouty Old White Dudes managed to miss a great opportunity - and I'm not referring to how they failed to ask the right questions of a nominee who's "qualified" for SCOTUS, while being so totally fucking wrong for the job.

 The committee had an expert witness in front of them for hours - someone who has academic credentials out the wazoo, who's a seasoned pro in a field of study that ties in perfectly with the experience of millions of sexual assault victims, and who knows a lot about the inner workings of the human brain - and sadly they missed the chance to ask her the one truly important question: "Dr Ford, please take a few minutes and explain to us why we're acting like such assholes about this whole thing."

And BTW - a coupla points about how Kavanaugh has such great regard for women that his staffers are almost exclusively female:

1 - why would a predator not surround himself with potential prey?

2 - The Charlie Wilson crap: "They can learn how to type, and do the filing - they can't learn how to grow tits."
