54% of Republicans say Kavanaugh should be confirmed to the Supreme Court *even if Ford's allegation of sexual assault is true* vs. 32% who say he should not be confirmed via new NPR/PBS/Marist poll this week.

That's partisan politics for you. They don't actually 'mean' that, as in, they don't want to accept a rapist, but they're driven into such hysteria by the back and forth on each side that they HAVE to take their side no matter what.

They could try not confirming the guy?

I hate sentiments like this.

The GOP nominated him and in spite of everything wants to ram him through.

Blaming their shit behavior on "hysteria on both sides" is disingenuous and just passes the buck

They asked Roy Moore voters whether or not they thought his child sexual abuse allegations were true or not.

80% outright believed they were false.
12% weren't sure
8% thought they were true

and I'm sitting here thinking "wait, 8% of people are voting for someone they believe is a child rapist?"

I'm not saying this behavior is good. I thought I was pretty clearly expressing that it is bad behavior. I'm just telling you why they're acting that way. It's not 'because they're terrible people at a core level'. It's because of the reasons stated.

Ok let's put the question to you then. Let's say hypothetically it is confirmed by factual evidence that he was a serial sexual assaulter, would you think it appropriate for him to get the job?

You're a hate filled person.

The "both sides" thing doesn't work with sexual assault.

Conservatives commit sexual assault statistically far more often than democrats do.

That's a quantifable thing, not up for debate.

Hes getting too emotional, and he knows it. Thats why he has issues with this emotional manipulation by the Democrats and why he has to pretend other people have more hatred than he does.

Its usually more funny than sad, but today it is pretty sad.

I came in here to disapprove of Doom's constant attacking of the other side. The dude doesn't listen to reason. He is a pot stirrer. He wants drama. He wants violence. He wants people to fight with each other.

He doesn't like it when ANYTHING reasonable comes out about Republicans. Even, if it's what Steve posted.

Yes, it is still unacceptable. However, at least, it's understandable, when given the alternative is to think 54% would literally support a rapist.

I'd sooner believe people are more blind to the allegiance of their party and the hysteria that is currently going down.
