So far unsung hero, Sen. Klobuchar

[LakeArenal]

If a male Senator had been spoken to like that by any Democrat male or female.

(Tho, isn’t a Justice at least supposed to pretend to be non-partisan?)

1. She handled it perfectly.

She shamed Kavanaugh with a couple of words. He then came back and apologized to her. She brought the SOB to his knees.

Don't mess with Amy. She'll cut you off at the hip, with a polite smile on her face.

15. Amy has been on the Sunday shows,too.

For you footbal fans,the Bengals just beat Atlanta by one point. 37 to 36.

[MineralMan]

22. Who gives a shit?

There are far more important things going on. I've seen her on the Sunday shows, but you use that to give us a football score? Damn!

[violetpastille]

2. He was trying that shit with Sen Whitehouse too.

To him all Democrats are women, (i.e. unworthy of respect).

[BootinUp]

3. She has done well. Always liked her. Nt

[Guilded Lilly]

4. We are singing for her, now. The damned insolence of Punk Kavanaugh...

towards the Democrats (and exponentially against the women on the committee) would, in a sane world have been shamed and shot down by decent lawmakers, decent humans.
So, of course, Republican lawmakers took the lead of the belligerent, disgustingly immature punk and lowered their already heel scraping character and ground it further into the muck.

16. Kavenaugh was rude to Feinstein,too.

[Guilded Lilly]

20. Self-righteous and disrespectful, blatantly bullying. Yes.

[Heartstrings]

5. She showed so much composure...

[StarryNite]

6. She was amazing!

[mysteryowl]

7. She did a great job

[LuckyLib]

8. It's a good thing he didn't do that to Kamala Harris.

She would have had him for lunch — I would have loved to see it!

[pangaia]

9. me too. It would have been an historical drubbing for the ages.

[Grasswire2]

10. I think Durbin did an outstanding job, too. nt

[justie18]

12. Yes!

I was proud of all the Democrats on the committee.

[djacq]

11. For an out of line question from Kavanaugh;

Didn’t see Lindsey jump up ranting over that.

Southern Gentleman my ass.

[Scruffy1]

14. She got over 65% of the vote in the last election.

I'm sure his behavior will hurt the Republicans running for office in Minnesota. Anyone seeing that behavior and approving of him for office is plain nuts.

[BigmanPigman]

13. Indeed.

I called her office Fri AM right after I called Whitehouse to say tell them "Thank you for all the hard work on behalf of the US and Dems". I called them all while the GOP senators on the committee are giving their speeches (I muted them). I was surprised that I was able to get through the phone lines for half of them...meaning that people weren't giving them the support they deserve. Please call the member of the Judic Comm and say THANKS. This link is great, click on the senator's picture and get their contact info (try their local offices first...less busy).

18. Thank you! 🙏

Yet again.

[BigmanPigman]

19. I feel sorry for the Dems.

Everyone needs to say thanks. I don't know why people don't do it when it is so easy and takes such little time and effort. When I taught first grade my students were taught to write "Thank Yous" all the time. They also had to say thank you as well. My students were always remembered for doing that by parents and the staff. I just hope they continued to do it after leaving my class.

[CottonBear]

17. An you post what the Senator asked & what Kavanaugh said to her?

This entire thread is without direct quotes, links or context.

Thanks!

Edit: I found a DU post which quotes the exchange during the hearings:

21. A political plus, she knows more sports than any guy

Her dad was the sports writer for the Minneapolis paper. She will football talk any guy opponent into the ground.
