Kavanaugh now a national pariah

Brett Kavanaugh’s ascendancy to the high court is, in the end, probably unimportant. His reputation is damaged beyond repair. A majority of Americans despise him as a partisan and a liar. He is the O.J. Simpson of Supreme Court justices. Wherever he goes, in whatever company he keeps, he will be subject to scorn and contempt. His paranoia and distrust will deepen. He will doubt his friends and his peers; he will see enemies in every corner. In this social media-driven age, where everyone is armed with a smart phone and a Twitter app, most restaurants and public spaces will prove too risky. Harvard has already cut its ties with him. He will be an outcast, a pariah.

Dr. Ford, on the other hand, stands tall, unscathed. Her brave testimony was a triumph. Her obligation was to present the truth of her experience and she did so. Had she been a man, attesting to a decades-old assault by some member of the clergy, no one would’ve questioned her story. She had no power over the trajectory of this nomination. The fix was in. Though on one point Kavanaugh was right. “What goes around, comes around,” he said. And it did.

Kavanaugh’s answer proclaims guilt

The fact that (Brett) Kavanaugh didn’t want an FBI investigation (Democrats asked him about it at least half a dozen times, and he avoided or deflected the question every time) told me all I needed to know about him. An innocent person would have welcomed — no, demanded — an in-depth investigation of the several allegations of sexual assault and rape against him. What’s more, a person who believed him to be innocent would have demanded an investigation – which tells me even the Republicans and all his supporters believed him guilty! He did what Ford accused him of, and he probably did the same to many young women. Kavanaugh’s supporters do not care about women. They don’t care about facts. They don’t care about truth. They care about power at any cost!

Will The Bee be like the dodo bird?

Once again The Bee has shown its true colors when it comes to objectivity. Andrew Janz, Marek Warsheski and the editors at The Bee are unapologetic liars. The brilliant and truthful pamphlet that Devin Nunes sent to all of his constituents was blasted by the aforementioned people with no facts to support their views. These people have no shame and the voters of the 22nd District will prove they are wrong when they send Devin back to Congress where he can continue supporting our president, unlike these radical buffoons. Remember a vote for Janz is a vote for Rosie, Dumb & Dumber, Aveneti, Boxer, Steyer and all the left wing nut cases in Hollywood and D.C. Cheer up friends, the McClatchy Fresno Bee is on the way out. Soon this rag will be like the dodo bird, extinct. Opinionists can never be considered journalists, and that is all The Bee hires.

He hopes for a conservative paper

Fresno and Fresno County is in bad need of a conservative newspaper that will speak the truth. The Bee is definitely printing a lot of far-left garbage. Hope someone out there will start a good paper that will support our nation and the Constitution. Pray for our country and all politicians that are so split. A house divided will not stand.
