Charlie is exactly correct.
Nobody would care if someone drank a lot of beer in university. Lying about it under oath is a more serious issue.
He was underage, and denied it. Lie number two. He contradicted his past statements on abortion. Some reporters picked out five or six definite lies.
The guy is blatantly lying and the GOP senators ignore it.
If he gets in they will be telling him how to rule, this whole process is a disgusting farce.The SCOTUS is typical of what is wrong with the entire upper echelon of US government. It is a closed circle of ivy league frat boys and girls. Four justices are Catholic, one is lapsed Catholic, Kavanaugh is catholic, is a court with six catholics representative of the community? Where are the Buddhists, Muslims, Sikhs, or atheists? Or how about someone from a small mid west university who isn't a political insider?
My problem with Kavanaugh is the man himself. He is just another rich frat boy like Trump, most of his cabinet and most of Congress. He is the exact opposite of what the USA needs.
As often happens in this type of assessment the focus can change from did he or didn't he do something 30+ years ago where there were no independent witnesses. It can change to did he or didn't he lie under oath about a series of lesser offences and misbehaviour to which there are many independent witnesses. If he did, then he is unsuitable to be a judge, supreme or otherwise.
