Showing Original Post only (View all)My wife said something about Kavanaugh that I can't stop thinking about. [View all]
My wife said last night: "Not all woman were sexually assaulted but we all know a Brett Kavanaugh." When she said that, I immediately thought of guys in high school and college who were Brett Kavanaughs. I suspect we have all known a Brett Kavanaugh.
It seems to me that a having a Brett Kavanaugh on the Court would be devastating to the judicial system.

I have been around quite a few. Luckily, I'm an athlete so they ended up flat on their asses mostly.

I was lucky. I didn't really meet a Brett Kavanaugh type until I got into the work world

I've never been sexually assaulted but I knew tons of Brett Kavanaughs. He's only a bit older

I knew many like Kavanaugh, and they all ended up doing pretty good. Got lots of dates, too.
