and he most likely figures it is his absolute right to do whatever he pleases without fear of consequences. After all, the son of a judge would be afforded a lot of leniency.

we all know someone like Kavanaugh. They may be a friend or a family member. They are probably not rapists but they are mean drunks and we get out of their way. These people usually raise havoc in their families.

I like beer. Do you like beer? I drink beer. I like beer. Do you drink beer? I like beer.

He wanted beer to wash away any thoughts of grain alcohol, whiskey, gin, vodka, etc.


Did anybody call him on the age?

In fact I have one or two a night (probably because of this administration) anyway, I have never tried to rape someone over my love of libations. I realize I'm an underprivaleged white woman with a wife but damn.

I think Kavanaugh used drinking to be able to commit assault. He spiked drinks and he drank before the assaults.

It was premeditated. It is obvious to me that he could not get laid through mutual consent.

What is wrong about what he did. Didn't every guy in HS and college do the same? Aren't we supposed to accept that this might happen if we stepped out of our homes? Every single thing he seems to think or act is what is wrong and he does not even come close to seeing it. Privilege abounds, he cannot even recognize it.

He's making his case to some imaginary "Joe Sixpack."
