I've said from Day 1 that the Merrick Garland's stalled nomination was garbage, so direct your rage at someone who disagrees with you."When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."

Saw this on Twitter. It also made me smile because it’s fair and balanced as usual by MSM. A03CE7EC-8096-4D4C-BE83-F46E08C27937.jpgjA03CE7EC-8096-4D4C-BE83-F46E08C27937.jpg7FCC76A8-53BD-4E39-A544-A9750E1295A4.jpg

Well hell, at least he likes baseball!
Supreme Court nominee incurred tens of thousands of dollars of credit card debt by purchasing baseball tickets, White House says
A review of Brett Kavanaugh’s financial disclosures and information provided by the White House shows between $60,000 and $200,000 in credit card and personal loan debt in 2016 and at times liabilities that could have exceeded the value of his cash accounts and investment assets.
Kavanaugh’s most recent financial disclosures reveal assets between $15,000 and $65,000, which would put him at the bottom of the financial ranking of justices, most of whom list well over $1 million in assets. The value of residences is not subject to disclosure.
President Trump's second Supreme Court pick piled up large credit card debts for home improvements and buying Washington Nationals season tickets for himself and a “handful” of friends, and he paid it off in 2017 after being reimbursed by friends, the White House says.
Although I do struggle to see how how a 53 YO professional can have assets as low as he apparently does. What does a Federal Judge make anyway? Another quick quote from Kavanaugh...
In the federal courthouse in Washington, Kavanaugh has developed a reputation for cracking jokes, talking sports and showing up at events to support his colleagues.
He has likened himself to the official behind home plate, calling balls and strikes.
"To be a good umpire and a good judge, don't be a jerk," Kavanaugh said in a speech three years ago. "In your opinions, demonstrate civility — to show, to help display that you're trying to make the decision impartially, dispassionately, based on the law and not based on your emotions."
"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."

Hornsby could speak to this better than me, but the rise of alternative "news" blogs like this seems to have really drag down journalistic standards. Traditional print had to compete with these sites and are getting dragged down to their level.Last edited by Sour Masher; 07-11-2018, 06:53 PM.

HP imho is the tabloid of the virtual “liberal media” space, of which there are many. Never to be outdone by conservative Internet garbage. A race to the bottom.I know in my heart that man is good.

Originally posted by Sour Masher View PostYeah, it still amazes me how big HP has gotten and how people still gravitate to it even though the majority of their content is created by unpaid, unvetted people with little to no credentials. And the site is more about clickbait than anything else. I guess it is all about SEO in terms of what sources get views.
