Judge Crappynuts gains 3rd accuser.

Right. Huge difference between "I flat out never met them" and " I don't remember".

If anyone reading this has gotten blitzed at any point in their lives, even if not accused of assault, don't try to claim you remember everything.

I got blitzed for my 30th birthday. I don't remember anything past being at the bar that night.

I have a bad feeling that Kavanagh will still be confirmed.  He's been groomed for decades to take this position.  This is one more step in the soft coup of America by the religious extreme right.  There could be a tape showing Kavanagh trying to rape that girl, and they would just say he was still a kid, and there is no evidence it wasn't consensual, and confirm him anyway.
You know it's true.

None of this matters.  Just like with Trump.  They do not care if they put install monsters, as long as the monsters will carry out their agenda.

I suspect you're right. The Republicans have already signaled their intention to ignore the second and third accuser by scheduling a vote on Friday morning.

Ultimately, this is becoming less a referendum on judge Kavanaugh than it is a referendum on the process. If none of the Republicans vote no, that will be a telling indicator of their willingness to endorse a corrupt process if it's in their party's interest to do so.

This day was emotionally draining...

He'll be confirmed. Manchin will probably vote along with the spineless senators Murkowski, Flake, and Collins.

This is Trump's America. Making America Rape Again.

I have a cousin who I spar with regularly on FB about Trump. He's such a die hard that I'm willing to bet anything that if trump told him to suck a cock, he'd do it. And he's the straightest guy I know. But he'd do anything for the WLB because he's that loyal. Makes me sick.

I've posted this before.  A graph of the relative importance of various moral themes between liberals and conservatives.  Relatively speaking, conservatives care more about loyalty and authority than liberals, and liberals care more about fairness and harm, relatively speaking.  The Trump loyalty follows directly from their ethical concerns.
