8. I'm glad you said "probably" because you know nothing of my life.

I was treading carefully, if I was speaking more forcefully I would have called Kavanaugh a fucking monster.

My opinion is that it is a waste of time coddling up to a monster. Kavanaugh is the most reich winged, partisan, pro corporate candidate to ever be nominated in my lifetime, and I'm 71.

Whistling past the graveyard isn't something I do. There is a reason that his nomination is being fast tracked, that his papers are being withheld, that the FBI is failing to investigate the DiFi letter.

Republicans are well aware of what kind of person Kavanaugh is, that's why they are voting for him.
