Most of us can get emotional from time to time...

But, most of us experience it for a few moments and we recover from it.

Watching Brett Kavanaugh yesterday, it was rather disturbing to watch him devolve into an emotional turmoil which he could not recover from. He appeared to be close to a nervous breakdown. He could not control himself.

It did not seem normal. I have seen such behavior before. It is usually from a crying drunk. They cannot control their emotions. They get angry. They shout. They cry. They look for sympathy.

It was very disturbing to watch it go on and on and on...

#fatnixon was tutoring him because he said he didn't think Kavenaugh acted "mad" enough. Maybe he was mad and crying because he sold his soul?

I bet you a million - they sat around and thought on non-offensive alternatives to Renate, ski's, FFFF, and devil's triangle, and all the other obviously crude things on his calendar.

BUT - when he said that, you could at least say, "so you refuse to tell us how Trump assisted with your practicing?'"

Can you imagine if a woman had pulled that stunt?

and hysterical. Fox would be saying she was unfit to serve because of her temperament. Women and men are treated differently in every aspect of life, our home, our work, business.
