Consider that Mark Judge is an AA member

Absolutely nothing to show that Kavanaugh has reformed his ways or that he is trying to reform his ways. Is he still a blackout drinker? How does he behave when drunk?

Surely this is known by all of his clerks, by his family, and by everyone on the judicial committee.

They don’t out other members but they enthusiastically out themselves. You’re right, though, he doesn’t owe us his story.

It was idle speculation on my part. I agree he does not have to out himself. MY apologies.

He's not as bad as WC Fields with a gin-blossom nose... he has adult acne and acne scars... but it's also more than just a mild case of rosacea. I'd bet that he's a heavy drinker, too. A "functional alcoholic".

All mention he was s**t-faced when it happened I wonder if he’s ever admitted to having a problem.
