re: #265 dangerman

double precisely

(again assuming it’s true)
he has never been called to account for this particular event
that she never reported it was his good luck - her ‘choice’, his benefit
he’s being called to account now - no, not necessarily ‘legally’
to address: this never happened, she’s a liar. or it did. (i dont care about his excuses or explanations)

whether or not he was a model citizen the day after that day and up through today is an entirely separate issue
which apparently he may not have been anyway

The term “model citizen” seems to be limited to one’s personal behavior. IMHO, that is too restrictive: one’s professional involvement should also be considered. In judicial ruling after ruling, Kavanaugh has shown himself to be heartless and cruel to those who have less power. His disgraceful handling of the 17 year old pregnant immigrant should have disqualified him from consideration for this post, but we know that it’s his outrageous expansive interpretation on the power of the executive branch that led to his nomination.

Kavanaugh is not a model citizen if you base your views on the democracy we were before Trump’s election; of course, if you believe that NK adoring citizenry comprise model citizens, he probably fits that definition.
