Defensive anyone? Kavanaugh sounds scared!

[Mister Agenda]

These allegations are something that will stick in the minds of people for the rest of his life.  Some will believe them and some will not.  This will follow him no matter what path he takes in his career.  No.  I don't want to live in the world which you described, as well as the world which I described.  I want to live in a world in which justice is served for both men and women.

Justice can't be served if you can't make allegations.

You're assuming his guilt before he's been proven guilty.

He doesn't have to be proven guilty, it's a job interview, not a court of law. How he reacts to the accusation and the process speaks more to his qualification than the mere fact that someone accused him.

I frequently conduct job interviews, and I look for people who maintain their composure under stress and take responsibility for their actions. I don't hire people if nothing is ever their fault, only people who can acknowledge a mistake can learn from them. His speech (that he wrote himself) going on about his fond calendar memories of his father (sitting in the room) showing utter disrespect for the hiring process of our government (and the drinking age in Maryland) and offering up conspiracy theories about the people out to get him wouldn't cut it with me. I don't want someone like that in a position of responsibility. I'd be thankful that he showed me who he is during the interview, when every normal person is on their best behavior.

They can find another conservative judge that doesn't have this kind of baggage, the president has a list, I hear. It doesn't have to be this particular guy. If Trump had withdrawn his nomination last week, we could already be setting up hearings for someone else. Gorsuch didn't get this kind of grief, just try someone else.
