He has the antithesis of any sort of judicial disposition. I hope he's not seated on SCOTUS, and he should then be unseated wherever he sits now. UNFIT for any bench.

ZerlinaMaxwell Unfit for office

The republicans are always looking the other way when it comes to the facts 🤔

debbieksl Well that’s a huge nothing. And let’s be honest, the bar association is a joke and never does anything to attorneys who screw up.

totallytuna The concerns were about open mindedness and bias and lack of experience at the time. Nothing about sexual assault etc. and now based on his RECORD as federal judge, ABA endorsed BK for Supreme Court. Their statement is in support for due process, not to recall their support

The ABA is a lobbying group for lawyers. The ABA is also in the pocket of the progressives. They can go to hell

The GOP is light on intellectual firepower, so they’ll take what they can get.

Wait, what? And they supported his nomination this time around?

propaganda continue. I wish you get investigated for criminalbehaviour when justice will wake up.

Unless you are a sexual abuser yourself, how could anybody pass this man through to the Supreme Court?

It's (past) time for some of those who've previously expressed concerns about Kavanaugh's conduct & integrity to summon the courage of Dr. Ford and come forward now. Seems Graham's theatrical assertions were not fact-based.

They dismissed 'em bcuz they were rewarding a GOP political operative from way back. Whitewater investigation, Clinton Impeachment & BushvGore. He's a political hack 1st, an appellate judge 2nd. They knew of the latest alleged behaviors. Reason for the Ken Starr image buff tour.

Lets find the best picture of Judge Kavanaugh to accompany the title of this piece.

Puppet senatemajldr DIDN'T want Kavanaugh in the first place! WHY? He knew about ABA, and maybe FBI reported concerned about him, but GOP decided to dismissed, hidden the findings from Dems and Americans. Hope that this time they won't do the same with FBI findings.

CyrusToulabi kavanaugh achilles heel is not about credibility - its about corruption, trump mob , JusticeKennedy

It’s getting good. Now more and more will come out.

This is something can’t be nothing

He is unhinged liar.

Wow. Peer downgrade to : inexperienced and sanctimonious.

So he lied about his rating,?

Tshetaar2017 Look at that face. Angry.

😀😀

I thought the ABA had called Kavanaugh "well qualified" for this nomination. I was mistaken. Inexperienced and “sanctimonious:” Trump’s top Supreme Court pick was downgraded by peers via qz

Ugh

Perhaps but gave him an A+ this time around before the left unhinged.

SenKamalaHarris

Really then why was there an overwhelming letter of support for his confirmation?

Whoa! cc DickDurbin

Would have been good to have heard more about ABA concerns BEFORE the hearing.

SANCTIMONIOUS what a great way to describe this entitled hypocrite.

Lawyers!

Really, they're professional lairs, its all about commerce, not about justice.

Another hit piece........

Donald Trump the sexual predator of all time will be the first to welcome Kavanaugh to the family.

GOP realDonaldTrump senatemajldr Your disgusting legacies are cast for generations to witness and trample on.

You are kidding me.....

No morals in Washington

Click bait

They should have said something

Republicans are not dismissing anything. They heard Dr. Ford and Kavanaugh and did not find any corroboration in her story, plus there are inconsistencies. Calls for an FBI investigation are stall tactics, not designed to find the truth.

TAKE OFF YOUR POLITICAL HATS!!! Think! Is this the future you want for you children and their children? Please think.

Too bad most of us were all asleep then.

WaPo, it’s time to calm down. This is your 9000th attempt to ruin Kavanaugh and it hasn’t worked yet

How many RED FLAGS are required to halt a lifetime appointment that will directly affect the US for 40+ and in perpetuity-forever?

If you're gonna say it, say it right you Ass-Wipe... "The Liberal American Bar Assoc".....!

"Everyone acts according to self-interest." - Gracian

Propaganda much ?

Let’s face it. Anyone who isn’t a crazed Republican can see this guy is trouble. And now we will get stuck in the same miserable world these women are!
