Kavanaugh is the one person who is most responsible for everyone in the country

knowing every last sad, gross detail of Clinton's affair with Lewinsky. He leaked the information to the press. He insisted that Clinton's questions on the stand be the most gross and salacious.

Of course he is a pig. that's been obvious since the great Clinton Cock Hunt of the late 90s.

It's nice to see that actually mattering for once. Thanks, Dr. Ford.

A dirty trickster. Who, hopefully will have to face the same kinds of salacious questions he drew up for Bill Clinton. That would be true karma at its best - and most well-deserved.

Bill Clinton had consensual sex with a staffer, and that was an abomination and he needed to be impeached Immediately.

But this fucker tries forcing sex and even indulges in gang rape, and we're supposed to be all 'boys will be boys' about it.

There is no end to the Hypocrisy!

the "party of family values" yet they are trying to force yet another sexual predator onto the Supreme Court!! If would be laughable if it was not so terribly sad. So they want to have TWO perverts on their SC? Maybe the "stench" tRump is talking about is really prevalent on the SC, we know it is in the "party of family values"

By making sure the girls were drunk and that many boys took part, they could always claim later that the girls were misremembering or weren't even there, that it was consensual, that the girls actually had sex with someone else OTHER THAN Kavanaugh and Judge, that Kavanaugh and Judge weren't even at the party, etc, etc, etc.

WHERE did they learn to be this evil, this manipulative, this amoral during their teen years? Were they inspired and taught by their wild-partying Jesuit teachers???

business on their agenda is to disenfranchise over 50% of the population: women. They will go after women's reproductive rights first and then work to dismantle a woman's right to vote, along with every minority in the fucking United States. They want to silence everyone except white males, and predominately those that are from the "right" affluent families. Everyone else can be content to hold the mops and brooms and toilet bowl scrubbers, a pith helmet or a coal miner's helmet, all in service to these entitled white motherfuckers.

had already ruled his death a suicide, caring little for the effect that would have on Foster's family. It mattered not to Kavanaugh whether he uncovered new evidence. The purpose was to keep the allegations alive in the public's mind. Cf. Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi.

When I read about how he wanted Starr to ask certain questions about Clinton's sex life that were not even related to the matter at hand, that's when I knew he was a pervert.

which was put out in paperback form and was EVERYWHERE soon afterward. I think it was that report that released all those creepy details. I did read the guardian article of the questions Kavanaugh wanted asked -- and he is a creep.

Oddly, with those questions, Bill Clinton may have eithered refused to answer or answered truthfully as there would have been no way to parse a response that would mislead but be even remotely defensible as true. His impeachment was for perjury and obstruction of justice. With those questions, there might have been nothing that could have called perjury. It would have meant Clinton telling the full truth at least half a year earlier.

This does not say that Kavanaugh was not a creep and it certainly makes it ironic that he has been troubled in his hearing prep that people want him to answer embarrassing questions on HIS actions.

by a reporter who was told that Kavanaugh was Starr's go to leaker.

http://www.nationalmemo.com/brett-kavanaugh-exposed-ken-starr-designated-leaker/

however, you are right, his role in the post-lewinsky world is not as clear as I had orginally thought.

thanks for helping set the record more straight.

Interesting that he leaked the various stories that made news over those months before Clinton confessed and the impeachment effort started in 1998.

Kavanaugh worked with Starr but left before the Lewinsky scandal broke. But he was probably responsible for most of the Vince Foster bullshit.

however, he returns to the Starr investigation in time to write the report on the Lewinsky scandal which is the basis for the GOP impeachment of Clinton. So, I think what I said orginally is true. He's responsible for us just knowing that Clinton had had an affair. instead, we have to find out who stuck what where and how many times.
