Why are her glasses twice the size of her face and fogged up?

I'm thinking the dirty lenses are an attempt to hide her eye movement during testimony.

Either way, she's clearly lying and fabricating the whole thing. She could've been raped but not by Kavanaugh.

He performed very well under pressure.

He held the truth, answered directly, while displaying his humanity - but not in a method that would cloud his innocence.

It's also hard not to act nervous when you're on the stand with your wife and kids, defending you and your family.

Her glasses are a load of crap because we have videos of her both with her lawyers, and teaching. In neither of those instances is she wearing glasses!

I suppose the assumed guilt is a matter of interpretation, but I could only see a clear upset for the recent turn of events.

Which is absolutely justified.

There was emotion in Kavanaugh, but Ford did nothing more than extend her chin and pull her neck back. A clear act.

The justice system has done this before to those of the anti-establishment variety.

It's ruined people's lives before, left them without a career, and I think Kavanaugh is aware of what strings were being pulled for the same to happen with him.

A relaxed attitude would indicate carelessness and premeditated responses.

Either way, there'd be critique to his testimony. I believe that an overly calm attitude would end up worse for Kavanaugh, if he had behaved in that manner

How so?

If his wording were premeditated, there would be none of the anxiety you've described.

That's probably due to that he had spoken over the topic before.

Especially the drinking habits and whatnot.

Stumbling or accidentally saying the wrong thing would imply a fabricated version of events. The press would eat it up.

And the senators were purposely trying to twist his words.

Numerous times I heard questions which were purposefully complicated and difficult to answer, directly.

That's true - it does seem like he was practiced for the testimony.

But that's just how defense works in law, and most people wouldn't know that.

A lot of the questions, might I add, were just re-worded from previous confirmation hearings.

Judges are given access to the content of these cases, though - that is not true with Kavanaugh's hearing. I don't believe he had enough time to completely evaluate everything that was being asked.

But his answers were clear-cut under those circumstances.

I think your point is somewhat valid -- in that his reactions did have some flaws.

If it were not for the batshit crazy 'victim' testifying against him, those points would matter more in perspective.

Kavanaugh probably used that woman's insanity to his advantage in his testimony, as well.

Glass of water right beside a surge protector?

Who has a surge protector on their desk, anyway

"I have this friend who sleeps with his eyes open -- but he's asian, so you wouldn't know anyway."

England used to be culturally homogenous.

@Thule-Gesellschaft [☩] I think they're arguing for the opposite.

A culturally homogeneous nation =/= simply cutting immigration.

You'd need pre-existing homogeneity.

Someone tried to send 'white powder' to Eric Trump.

It was actually baby powder, although packaged to the likes of a toxic or harmful substance.

Then that was another incident. These types of mailings are quite frequent

That would be a change from them molesting the monkeys.

No nation's peoples, on average, is keen on learning advanced subjects either. @IUisbae

If you're IP was leaked, highly doubt they'd know where you live.

They're not very accurate in terms of location.

Best an IP can do is pinpoint your neighbourhood, and that is rarely the case.

That's why it's public information

Rep. Harris may want to start carrying concealed.

They eat dog in Japan.

...and they tortured our troops. I have no respect for Japan as a nation.

@IUisbae Not to the extent of Asian countries.

Their present day culture is no different from that during the Second World War -- they are still inhabited by those same people, with those same inherent beliefs.

And, again, they eat dogs. I don't wish to ever go to Japan.

@IUisbae We have testimony from American soldiers where they were humiliated, enslaved, and laboured to the point of death by the Japanese.

Not really they didn't.

Germany had American prisoners of war but they never underwent that sort of treatment.

We've never treated a POW like that, either.

We may have humiliated some Arabs during the Bush Admin. but they were never worked to death.

The Japanese also extorted American troops into making political statements which supported their propaganda. We never did anything of the sort.

The Japanese were better than the Chinese, but that's a lowly standard.

I would say that Korea is the best out of the three.

@IUisbae You're right -- there's two periods:

i. before the United States was established.
ii. after the United States was established.

The United States has produced some scum through the 'unfortunate Seventies,' but we're the powerhouse of technological, scientific, and philosophical evolution.

You're acting as if all nations don't have an elite.

Germany has the most elite of any nation.

Israel would be the epicenter of Judaism.

Nobody 'treats us like slaves' because, in the end, we have economic dominance over the rest of this world.

We're also the no. 1 military power.

I think it's unfair to mention anything under the Obama Administration given that we're doing our best to reverse all that.

@IUisbae Cows and pigs are not domesticated animals. Dogs are.

Sheep aren't domesticated.

An animal that's 'tamed' is not equal to one that's been domesticated as a house pet.

That's the core truth of my point -- killing and eating something that's been bred as a pet isn't humane.

In namesake, yes

Dogs haven't been killed for food long enough for there to be a 'livestock' dog. @IUisbae

Unless dogs can breed under one hour, my point is still exact.

There's no pedigree of dog for consumption.

Asia is a fucked up world.

@IUisbae As said, chickens aren't pets -- and they aren't 'ground up' nor are they conscious before being beheaded.

Taking calves away from their mothers isn't equal to beating dogs with canes.

I hope you're not really that stupid

You're stating it as if there is a 'hypocrisy' in the fact that we detest the consumption of dog meat.

Which there isn't - dogs aren't meant to be eaten, they are pets.

Then why exactly are you defending Asia's barbarous culture?

And we don't boil chickens alive

Asian nations don't forbid it, and that's a sense of condoning the unethical tradition.

What the fuck are you on about? Nobody's talking about who can suffer more.

I'm saying that we don't boil chickens alive as the fucking Asians do with dogs.

And that dogs are not livestock -- chickens are. No semantics involved.

So what? We still don't torture cows and/or pigs.

Your point is flawed

Consuming other people is NOT ethical

Consuming household pets is NOT ethical

So then why are you defending the consumption of dog meat

And why are you still pretending that we 'torture' cows and bigs

They are bred as pets

you idiot

Yes, all of them

A 'dog' is a pet

A 'dog' is a species of animal which was domesticated by early man and has been continually bred for a long period of time to be companions with man.

Thus the term "man's best friend."
