Does anyone believe that a man who testified in the same manner and with the same

passion as Prof. Pamela Karlan did would be criticized in the same manner and with the same ferocity as she is?

I think she was just "too uppity" for the "good old boys".

We have to acknowledge and confront the sad fact that, for a significant percentage of Americans, only white straight Christian males should ever occupy the White House or any truly significant leadership position.

These Republicans will smear and lie about any truth teller. They have absolutely no shame.

of late and those men don't like to be spoken to as their mother might have when they were little boys. That's why men don't want a woman as POTUS. We know when we're being lied to and will call them on it.

Man, with Trump, we would have had a full-time job reprimanding him for his lies.

Alternately raging and crying, fratbro Kavanaugh came off every bit the whiny, petulant "don't you know who I am" son of privilege he is. Not a peep out of the Wise Pundits of Washington.
