Kavanaugh called himself & his friends 'loud, obnoxious drunks' in 1983 letter and signed it 'Bart'

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

Didn't Kavanaugh's friend Mark Judge makes references to a character by the name of 'Bart O'Kavanaugh' in his book "Wasted"?

If a person admits that they were a 'loud obnoxous drunk" at some point in time but when questioned directly about his drinking during his confirmation hearing denies this aspect of his life, this doesn't raise questions in the minds of most?

I mean I realize that it's not flattering to portray onself as a any form of a drunk but obnoxious drunks do behave inappropriately, including grabbing on women, not being able to read the subtle and not so subtle indications that their attentions are unwanted.

Kavanaugh 1983 letter: We're obnoxious drunks 01:48

Washington (CNN) In a letter written in 1983, Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh describes himself and his friends as "loud, obnoxious drunks with prolific pukers" -- a stark contrast to the image Kavanaugh painted of himself during his testimony before the Senate last week.

The letter, which was published by The New York Times, and which The Times reports was written by Kavanaugh, shows him reviewing details for an upcoming trip with seven fellow Georgetown Preparatory School classmates. It offers another glimpse into the social lives of the students who attended private schools outside of Washington during the 1980s -- a scene that has been central to questions about Kavanaugh and the accusations of sexual assault he faces.

Also of note, Kavanaugh signs the letter "Bart" -- a name which has previously come up as a possible reference to Kavanaugh in his former classmate Mark Judge's book, where he writes about "Bart O'Kavanaugh."

Kavanaugh was asked about the reference to "Bart" in Judge's book during his questioning by the Senate Judiciary Committee last week.

Sen. Patrick Leahy, a Democrat from Vermont, and Kavanaugh went back and forth about the reference, but Kavanaugh appeared to avoid directly answering the question.

"Judge Kavanaugh, I'm trying to get a straight answer from you under oath," Leahy said. He then proceeded to ask Kavanaugh if he was Bart, "yes or no?"

Kavanaugh responded: "You'd have to ask him" -- meaning Judge.​

Seems to me "loud obnoxious drunk" is a triple redundancy.

 

[Norman]

Who gives a damn. There is still, zero evidence that he did shit to the woman whose old boyfriend is now claiming she is lying on top of having no evidence and four witnesses debunking her story.

Nobody has "debunked her story". That's still true as it was last week and no amount of posting fantasies changes it.

But that's effectively water under the bridge at this point after Kavanaugh's hideous display of injudicious temperament, coupled with evasion and lying under oath including the one you just plopped in the post above.

If you went to college and failed to participate in hardcore partying...you did it wrong.

College life is a terrible thing to waste.

Even the folks at USA Today don't believe her. This woman is a liar. You can take that to the bank and if there is any real justice left in this country, she'll face charges.
Christine Blasey Ford's changing Kavanaugh assault story leaves her short on credibility

Leave your contact information, the creepy porn lawyer would like to speak with you.

So fragile the male ego in some. You all can not keep from making this personal can you?

 

[shockedcanadian]

I imagine he might have been the type of guy I couldn't stand at the bar. Has a couple, gets drunk easily, maybe a bit too loud, hanging out with his buddies and making silly, corny jokes. Or maybe he was not any of these things at all, and just had a good time after a few and was enjoying his youth. That's the problem with bias and patch work details of his life, it doesn't speak to his body of work as an adult.

I hear people attacking him for being a sorority guy and whatnot, why begrudge a guy and hold it against him because of the life he was born into? That shouldn't be anyones concern. The question is, is he a bright, competent, Patriotic American who has the skill and trust to interpret your laws and Constitution? Is he an intelligent, talented, responsible, dedicated, hard working adult? If so, Confirm him and move on.

 

[JustAnotherNut]

So what part of drinking did Kavanaugh lie about? He admitted he drank beer both in high school and college. He never denied that and even admitted he still likes beer He did deny drinking to the point of blacking/passing out.

Just because he drank, doesn't mean he molested anyone

Why would you trust him to rule fairly and in accordance with the Constitution if he feels he's not required to be truthful when directly questioned under oath by the Senate? Why the evasiveness?

My experiences have been that there are a lot of people who know how to "play the game". They know what to say, what answers to give, etc. but the minute they accomplish what they've set out to accomplish then they revert back to their original personna and do things the way they feel they should be done.

I've never looked into any of Kavanaugh's rulings to see if there are any inconsistencies there or any complaints lodged against him as a judge. I have no idea what the FBI's previous investigations consisted of but if you're looking to uncover information rather than to justify a rubber stamp, then you have to look in other places.

Although investigators are supposed to be unbiased, most are at least motivated to find either exculpatory to clear the subject of their investigation or inculpatory evidence to implicate them.

He never denied drinking. He denied having memory lapses due to blackouts. He was actually quite adamant about liking beer. Try being honest for once.

So what? Anyone else party in their teens and twenties?

I also heard that in 1984 he double dipped his chip at a party

He will be signing as Associate Justice very soon!

I bet they have footage of him leaving the toilet seat up also!

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Why would anyone care what he did in 1983. Has anyone ever been to spring break in Florida?

 

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

Why do you think blacking out is the only indicator that someone is drinking way too much? People who drink & drive aren't blacked out, but they apparently can't remember that they are not supposed to be drinking when they're intoxicated because doing so is not only illegal but dangerous since they could injure or kill someone.

I wonder how many idiots here believe that Kavanaugh was not joking in the letter.

Maybe we should take a poll to further embarrass the TDS crowd. Perhaps their therapists are trying to keep them mentally ill because it fattens their bank accounts. Maybe what they really need is to be ridiculed much more often.

Nice deflection, except this is about Bart and the fact that he lied to the judiciary committee.
