Magox Posted February 7, 2019 Posted February 7, 2019 The left has created this monster and are now having to suffer the consequences of this movement. The Kavanaugh hearing set such a horrible precedent and I'm not sure there is any turning back from it. 4

Expand I would agree, but I think the preceding MeToo, believe all accusations, never move on stance lead directly to the circus. I don't think Kavanaugh was the starting point. There was never any doubt in my mind that it would come back to haunt those who adopted such a stance. To go back a bit, it reminds me of the days when the left would take glee in the moral failings of preachers, etc. Hypocrisy is an ugly trait and this is a serious dose of medicine for folks who decided to get on board the smear and destroy train. I don't blame the right one bit for pouncing on the hypocrisy. Not here to kiss anyone's a** and my political views will always align more with the left than the right.

Believe the accuser. Not sure if you guys caught Kamala Harris today, man she seemed pained in saying "I believe her". It took everything she could muster for those words to come out of her mouth. But now that this is the position that her and the other Senate Judiciary Democrats decided to go with, as a leader which she is vying to be, she has to take a consistent stand.

Same sort of asinine belief in political purity tests over ability and the rule of law. And a lot of the idiocy the Jacobins pursued - e.g. renaming the calendar, which I mentioned earlier, to remove any religious references (the month of August became "Thermidor," for "really ***** hot") - you could easily see the American progressive movement pursuing. 1
