Watching that eruptive display, the anger, the sturm und drang, the belligerence - Judicial Temperament????????????? Good Grief!!!!!!!

Wil Wheaton's Facebook essay included a comment about how it's become easy "to see this guy as a belligerent drunk who won't take no for an answer."

"Everything about him is terrible. He's *clearly* a rich prep school kid who has never been told "no" in his life, and we saw today what happens whenever someone tries to tell him no. It wasn't particularly difficult to see this guy as a belligerent drunk who won't take no for an answer. You could clearly see it in his ranting and raving, his angry yelling at a female senator, and his overwhelming, palpable sense of entitlement."

I am now afraid of Brett Kavanaugh. I'd want a security detail around me if I were ever going to have to meet him.
