Many are.You are lying again. Most "scientists" who work for the gov are liberals. I knew many. Especially in the national weather service where you either swallowed the global warming hype or found another job.How can liberals believe that...they know what the temperature was 33000 years ago?
You are confusing liberals with Scientists
You are lying again. There are scientists around the world making the same claims based on the same evidence
Are they all liberals?
Where's all the eyewitnesses in the judges case?How can liberals believe that...not having any proof yet someone should still be punished?
Eyewitness testimony is proof. Many people are in prison based on eyewitness restimony
Dr Ford provided eyewitness testimony to a sexual assault and identified Brett Kavanaugh as the perpetrator
Most sexual assaults don’t take place in front of an audience.
Many people have gone to prison based on testimony of the victim
Are you kidding or trolling with that statement?
Prove me wrong
This is not Islam. In America we are presumed innocent until proven guilty. I mean you were a Holocaust denier in HS and drew swastikas on schools. Prove me wrong....
Possibly they bought it because they understand the scientific method well enough to trust the overwhelming evidence of climate change, what is causing it and what limited options we have to limit its impact..You are lying again.

Total bullshit. There is NO proof whatsoever and every scum lib here still believes he's guilty with no proof! Over generalized my ass!How can liberals believe that...not having any proof yet someone should still be punished?
As I said, there are like 89 thousand Kavanaugh threads so I'd rather avoid having another one, but I'll offer a few thoughts
1) I think your premise is wrong, re: what liberals believe. You're overgeneralizing from a difference of opinion about a single case.
2) I think we should apply different standards of evidence in different contexts. So for example there is definitely not enough evidence to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that Kavanaugh is guilty of a crime in relation to Ford's testimony, and so he should not face any criminal punishment. I doubt there is enough evidence to support a civil judgement either, but I don't really know for sure, and it would be hard to know without a much larger investigation which I assume will never occur.
With regard to Kavanaugh specifically, I disagree with characterizing the situation as one in which he faced punishment without "proof". He was not facing criminal or civil charges, he was being considered for a life-time appointment to the highest court in the U.S. I think part of the bargain that someone makes when they agree to be a nominee for such a position is that they will face a very high level of scrutiny. And the only possible consequence of that scrutiny under consideration was that he might not get the position. I think a reasonable standard of evidence necessary to deny him the position -- given it's importance and the length of the appointment -- is much weaker. I would vote against a nominee facing reasonably credible allegations of sexual misconduct even if I were not very certain they were guilty. That reflects the importance of the position, and the wide availability of qualified candidates without such allegations. I don't feel that this is prejudicial; no one is entitled to a supreme court seat, and the integrity of the court is very important to me. There are caveats here, of course. I would dismiss allegations that were clearly demonstrated to be false, but I don't believe that has happened here.
3) Many liberals view the problem of sexual violence and harassment in context with the fact that the criminal justice system has always been inadequate at protecting women, and for most of our history has been pretty complicit in perpetuating male dominance through sexual violence. Just as a single example, it's not a coincidence that there weren't even such things as laws against marital rape in all states until the early 90s. There's a cultural element to the way many men think about sexual assault allegations, and a lot of tendencies towards disbelieving victims even though false allegations are rare (which is not to say that they aren't serious!), and blaming victims in various ways.
It's also the case that the nature of criminal justice just doesn't work that well for these cases, precisely because there's often a lack of perfectly objective evidence (and I agree with rightwinger that testimony is evidence, n.b. that "evidence" is not "proof"). This is an unfortunate drawback of the standards of evidence we use in criminal cases. Don't get me wrong, we have good reasons for insisting on those standards and there would be other problems with relaxing them, but we should be cautious about the fact that "proof beyond a reasonable doubt" almost necessarily means that many victims will never be able to have justice, because it's simply impossible for them to ever meet that standard. That's why rape is so under-reported and why there are relatively few prosecutions. This is a real injustice for women who have little recourse in many cases.
How can liberals believe that...guns cause crime when they don't want to punish criminals?

There is usually physical evidence or evidence that the alleged was actually there. There is no proof with CBF that Kav was even there and non of her witnesses recall it. If there was corroboration that Kav was even in the same house then it may be a different story. Damn, you're dumb.
