Wait, did he have a fake id? From what I can tell, it probably wouldn't have been necessary.

what was he doing in a bar when he was underage It wasn't as strict in the 80s as it is today. He could have been let in without needing a fake, or maybe he had one. Either way of course it's not right for someone who's trying to be a SC judge. And yeah, being born in February of 1965, he was only 20, just a few months shy of 21. Also in 1985, the drinking age was raised from 19 to 21, so it's very feasible there were many hold-out bars and states to adopt the new age. But that also means Kavanaugh was legally allowed to drink in 1984, so he was one of the rare few who was legally allowed to drink up until they made the change to 21. --- "i am making Jerky that some day will be sold in every store in America Very few of you are good enough for my jerky" - krosser, Last of the great smu ...

If your definition of paraphrasing is literally making shit up In the days leading up to a public allegation that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh exposed himself to a college classmate, the judge and his team were communicating behind the scenes with friends to refute the claim, according to text messages obtained by NBC News. The texts between Berchem and Karen Yarasavage, both friends of Kavanaugh, suggest that the nominee was personally talking with former classmates about Ramirezs story in advance of the New Yorker article that made her allegation public. In one message, Yarasavage said Kavanaugh asked her to go on the record in his defense. Two other messages show communication between Kavanaugh's team and former classmates in advance of the story. I mean, you can read between the lines or put your fingers in your ear not to mention that he lied in the hearing Further, the texts show Kavanaugh may need to be questioned about how far back he anticipated that Ramirez would air allegations against him. Berchem says in her memo that Kavanaugh and/or his friends may have initiated an anticipatory narrative as early as July to conceal or discredit Ramirez. Kavanaugh told the Senate Judiciary Committee under oath that the first time he heard of Ramirezs allegation was in the Sept. 23 article in The New Yorker. Kavanaugh was asked by Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, when he first heard of Ramirezs allegations. Kavanaugh answered: In the New Yorker story. so even if you want to say I'm completely off base and reading into something that's not, it still looks like perjury --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

You seem to think that you can make a mountain out of a molehill if you put enough of them in one place. I think if you take the person who spent the whole hearing building his defense as "I don't have a drinking problem" and then put together a bunch of vignettes of negative situations involving him and alcohol, it lends credence to the idea that he was lying.

s0nicfan posted...You seem to think that you can make a mountain out of a molehill if you put enough of them in one place. I'm also smart enough to realize that finding some stories about how a college kid drank in college doesn't make him an attempted rapist, and that the purpose of this current line of inquiry is to try and claim he lied about how much he drank while being accused of rape to disqualify him on a technicality because they can't prove he raped anyone.
