This deserves an academy award
more of this plz
In real life, ideally.
This reminds me of PCU
Couldn’t find the isolated clip for this, pardon for linking to the full movie but i’ve gone to the relevant scene :B
Very satisfying indeed, though I was waiting for him to get to the Ezekiel bit
Awesome! I only wish it were longer! (and that it had gone down this way)
to be fair he can legit deny this because he cannot remember what he doesn’t remember since he is a FREAKIN ALCOHOLIC AND BLACKOUT DRUNK
and currently a lifetime federal judge
remember that when this is over because he needs to be recalled/impeached
ps. why aren’t they asking him about his current drinking habits, that’s a completely fair question for a lifetime promotion of this magnitude
Agreed, except for that part, “to be fair.” Since, yeah, being blackout drunk is no excuse for any sort of bad behavior. (Not that I think you were saying it is.)
Mashup gold!
He was CONSTANTLY making arguments that amounted to "I got great grades in HS/College, therefore I could not have been drinking alot, nor raping people."
Really? You can’t “work hard / play hard”? The guy was in DKE. DKE. The reason for DKE’s existence was jocks falling over each other getting drunk while they werent date-raping the coeds. I’m somewhat annoyed the Senators didn’t pick up on this obvious bit of fraud, but then again, they only had a precious 5 minutes to question the guy, before the mic was handed back to the GOP trolls.
His other bald lie was that he never say Judge Kozlowski making lewd or inappropriate comments. Kozlowski was so open about his lewdness, he had a whole mailing list to broadcast his non-funny jokes to all clerks, present and past. He was constantly making comments about his female interns, asking their opinions on this or that new pornography he had recently obtained.
Oh, and that thing about “ralphing”/vomiting. He claims that he has a “weak stomach” so he had a fey reputation for constantly vomiting-- weak stomach! Not at all because he was constantly drinking so much he had to puke!
I would say it means the opposite.
If a person has frequent blackouts/memory loss for whatever reason. They cannot say reliably that an event did or did not happen. They can only say truthfully they don’t recall an event. But of course that is what memory loss is.
I’d like to see someone take the full Kavanaugh opening statement and edit it to colorize the liquid in his glass to a beautiful oak-aged amber. Seems like every time he took a swig, his look said he wished it was something stronger than water.
Whoever brought up hate sniffling earlier was so on point too. What do you reckon “to pull a Kavanaugh” will mean next year?
I think it depends how this works out. We gotta wait and see.
True story. Not that we can’t mock his sleaziness and ineptitude a bit while we wait.
A weak stomach should be reason enough to disqualify him for a seat on the Supreme Court.
The constant sniffing, anger and yes, the entitled rich boy upbringing in the 80s made me think coke… You know as if Ford fortified herself with a cup of Coke had he fortified himself with a snort of coke.
Yes, do you agree your response is knee-jerk?
