NY Times obtained 1983 Kavanaugh letter to his friends: ‘We’re loud, obnoxious drunks with prolific pukers among us’

https://www.rawstory.com/2018/10/ny-times-obtained-1983-kavanaugh-letter-friends-loud-obnoxious-drunks-prolific-pukers-among-us/

he New York Times released a report revealing a 1983 letter that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh wrote to his friends.

The letter was written before Kavanaugh and friends went to Beach Week. The letter states: “We’re loud, obnoxious drunks with prolific pukers among us.”

The second paragraph of the letter explains the components of the lease for a house they were renting.

“Our problem down there might be too many people. We’re going to have to decide while we are there who we want and don’t want. Possibilities for stays of a few days or more are [censored], Feeley, [censored], etc. If half of Gonzagga/St. Johns starts coming, we might have to give the boot or else we might get it ourselves.”

This story is still developing.


I'm sure we'll learn more and more every day now.

meant they might get laid, hurr durr. I can see why it took him many years to attain his goal.
NYT provided cover for his "FFFFF." Stammer, right, sure.

Kavanaugh claimed under oath that the FFFFFourth of July reference in his yearbook had to do with a friend who stuttered.

But I find it hard to believe that this FFFFF has anything to do with stuttering, regardless of the reporting.

Like he did in the letter

But thankfully for him, he used seven Fs in his yearbook entry.

If so, they must have an awfully large attic to hold 30 years of calendars and 25 years of letters

I've kept all my crap from high school - yearbooks, letters, calendar (just one), etc. - in my parent's basement. Remember, this was back in the 80s. We didn't have email back then, for God's sake, let alone cell phones, social media and the like.

So, not shocking to me at all, since I'm dinosaur who roamed the earth back then myself.

My parents gave me my stuff when I got a place with sufficient storage. Between that and moving a few times I guess I purged a lot.

Daily and nightly masses often ended in rousing hymns by the youth group he was a part of that non-believers might find loud and obnoxious. The group would sometimes get drunk on God's spirit. And being at the beach they frequently ate spicy seafood and sometimes would forget to refrigerate it properly so...

And they needed to be careful that the guest list was limited to God fearing Christians like themselves...

That is certainly at odds with Judge Kreepazoid's characterization of himself as a hard-working student, regularly attending mass, and too busy with charitable work to indulge in any alcohol-fueled shenanigans.

I wonder which is true? What Kreepazoid personally wrote 35 years ago, or what he said last week?
