  1. I'll try to explain my thoughts after having a day to digest. First of all, her testimony was hard for me to watch. My mom and wife had been victims in their life. I'd rather not go into detail, but needless to say it has changed them, and in regard to my mom and watching her deal with it, it changed me. Ford's a brave lady to come forward and testify before the whole country, and it ended up not even being taken seriously. The worst was them basically feeling sorry for her, being taken advantage of by the democrats and it being the democrats fault that this wasn't taken seriously. And that they believed her, but they thought she had the wrong guy (Ed Wheelan theory, anyone?). They made her testimony a democrats vs republicans thing which I think was just utterly disrespectful to her. Kavanaugh's opening statement also made me feel sad for him, her, America. You can tell me I don't have to feel sad for him, but I did. I guess I'm too emotionally vulnerable to follow this stuff seriously. When he broke up talking about his daughter praying for his accuser, it punched a nail through my heart. His subsequent testimony made it apparent that he was unfit for the court and likely not being fully forthcoming about the allegation. But it was gut-wrenching. Quick story. When I was in college I was a file clerk at the felony district attorney's office as I thought I may want to pursue the law at some point. We were prosecuting a ~70+ man for having sex with his 15 year old great granddaughter. It was just a file/case until it wasn't. The family came in negotiate the plea. The whole family. The accused. The victim. The accused wife, his children, etc. There were about 8 people in total. I remember seeing their faces after they finished and left the room with our assistant DA, and they all looked so broken. Just broken down and shattered emotionally. Yesterday reminded me of that.
  2. I'm with you. I feel like the whole country is morally bankrupt. It sucks.
  3. ...and all you'll have to show for it is a lousy ten commandments statue.
  4. This isn't going to magically disappear after they confirm and pound their chests for their base. And BK will wear this "acquisition" for his entire tenure on the supreme court. Their base would have been more motivated if they had withdrawn the nomination but the gutless senators are afraid of getting primaried.
  5. I hate everything about today. That's about the only thing I can be sure of. I don't find today funny, telling, or really anything. I just find it all to be pretty fucking sad.
  6. I'm glad this President is running an top secret operation to finally rid America of Moloch-worshiping child sex rings.
  7. Soros pays for each socialist post you make on Surly. I'd normally be for putting kids in cages, but I need to save for my kids' college so hard choices were made.
  8. They use them for different reasons. It's not a rubber stamp of truthfulness.
  9. You're right. Polygraph shouldn't be taken seriously.
  10. Full video. Other one cuts off right before he indicates he's not being serious. Really, quite perfect for this thread.
  11. We also showed a tendency toward qb sweep against USC on short downs. Against TCU, we showed same QB sweep action and then threw over it to CJ. It was like punishing them for watching film.
  12. Breaking: Brett Kavanaugh claims he is still a virgin.
  13. I don't know why and can't really put my finger on it, but I get the feeling that EMAWsome may not have been paying very much attention to the women's movement over the last two years.
  14. Yeah, I think firing him will precipitate some news stories that he doesn't want out there just yet. Discrediting Rosenstein with the Fox News mouthbreathers and leaving in place seems to work more toward his goal of discrediting the investigation.
  15. For Republicans, I think the issue relates to SC being back in session October 1. Also, the longer this draws out, regardless of whether he's confirmed or not, I think it gets it closer to this being an issue in the midterms and he's a historically unpopular nominee. Do it now, rip the bandaid off, and let the dust settle for midterms. For Trump, it's Kavanaugh's broad view of executive power and immunity as the issues of president being subject to a subpoena and pardon power with corrupt intent will likely come before the court.
  16. No, you guys went Republican to ethnonationalist.
  17. Trump hasn't attacked Manafort one time over twitter since finding out about cooperation agreement.
  18. Shit show like not giving Merrick Garland a hearing and holding seat open (and many others federal seats) more than 400 days or changing Senate rules that have been norms for ages to essentially rush judges through with 50 votes. Withholding 1000's of documents. Only unloading the documents labeled "Committee Confidential" (a made up term) hours before confirmation hearing. And the R's complained about getting Kagan's docs just two weeks before hearing.
  19. He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; he may, on extraordinary Occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them, and in Case of Disagreement between them, with Respect to the Time of Adjournment, he may adjourn them to such Time as he shall think proper; he shall receive Ambassadors and other public Ministers; he shall take care that the Laws be faithfully executed, and shall Commission all the Officers of the United States.
  20. Was that Connor that was getting knocked back into Dak after the throw?
  21. This is fun. But USC has some serious issues.
  22. Dicker is our best player.
