Last edited Thu Sep 27, 2018, 08:38 PM - Edit history (1)

Being sober for 25 yrs... I feel that Kavenaugh might be hung over at the hearing.. The Crying, the sweating, the inappropriate answers that made him sound so angry/frightened.. It just seems to me that it fits into a pattern of what active alcoholics due when they're stressed.

I also might add that I was best at my position as a General Manager 0f a $50 Million Business
when I was high... Not Drunk but high...One can be rather effective when boozed a little when making business decisions.

What I'm getting at?

I think that Kavenaugh might have had a few before he took his seat today!

Hey this is only my thought. No Proof at all!................... Fucking Repubs. do this all day and night....A taste of their own medicine.. But I stand upon what I wrote..

I've been down this road as a victim and an abuser. I see all the signs. His anger, his weeping, his denying. This guy is a mess and needs help.

Too bad, Brett boy — you sold your soul to the party, aka the mob. His reputation is trashed no matter what happens. He's connected to the worst piece of shit to ever the control the planet.

And this orange piece of shit controls it all. What is happening to us?

some as Chairman of the board. The behaviors I witnessed there were exhibited today. Your point that you can be a drunk and still function at a high level is accurate. I saw valued high level GM employees who were being given their last shot at getting sober. People who graduated to run their own addiction programs.
