'Kavanaugh Pens Whining Op-Ed Insisting America Ignore Those Things He Said,' By Hunter, Daily Kos. Oct. 4, 2018.
After a botched Senate performance that had Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh yelling about beer, insulting senators, and claiming that the multiple sexual assault allegations against him were part of a decades-old conspiracy seeking revenge on behalf of Bill and Hillary Clinton, the most entitled man in America gets yet another do-over in the editorial section of the Wall Street Journal.

He still doesn't understand.
