I am still supporting him with prayers. The Holy Father has implored us to pray against the great accuser who levels baseless accusations against innocent men, so I am fulfilling my holy and pious duty.
 
I would’ve agreed with you a few days ago, but now I feel the same way that the magazine’s editors do. Find someone else. We can just as easily pray that a more suitable candidate is nominated.

I think Amy Comey Barrett (sp?) would have been a better choice.
 
I’m supporting him with prayers too.

Imagine - his 10 year old daughter, “ maybe we should pray for her “

America Magazine rescinds its endorsement of Kavanaugh. Basically, they say, find a different pro-life candidate.

If Kavanaugh is not confirmed and the Republicans lose the Senate majority in the midterms, there won’t be another pro-life candidate until that situation is reversed.

The Pro Life issue is the biggie and the reason why Kavanaugh is getting delayed. Had Barrett or someone else had been selected they would be enduring the same kind of trial.
 
My support of Kavanaugh hasn’t changed. If the democrats were truly convinced that there had been any wrongdoing on his part, they wouldn’t have been afraid to bring the allegations forth as soon as they received them. This is all a stalling tactic to keep a pro-life candidate as far from the Supreme Court as possible.
 
The idea of somebody being “endorsed” for an appointed judge position is completely silly. He’s not running for elected office. I’ve never heard of “America Magazine” and don’t read magazines for years now except for an occasional “People” or “Vanity Fair” if they’re running a murder story.
 
I think so too, I don’t think she would have gotten rape accusations against her. This whole thing has been so frustrating to watch, the lengths people will go to completely destroy someone else. This is pure evil and hatred. No one deserves to be treated like that.

I got a laugh from this, and I agree. 😁 Good points.
 
Surely someone in this position should be beyond reproach. Why would you want someone appointed to what is in effect a job for life that has a major scandal hanging over them like this? Why not back a clean candidate that supports your agenda rather than someone who is tainted like this?

Besides from what I understand of the US Supreme Court they don’t generally reverse previous decisions made by the court.

What I think will happen, if Pence gets his way, is somewhat happening already. Women will stockpile Plan-B and the Pill, and more women will join networks like those shown in the article below. Make no mistake making abortion illegal won’t stop abortion, but it will increase the death toll.

Over 60 million human beings have been aborted already, is that toll not high enough? We need to add millions more to that? This is the greatest human rights violation ever. There’s not even a guarantee of Roe V Wade being overturned if Kavanaugh gets on the court, after the stunt they are pulling though I think that may change. If Roe is overturned it would go back to states. I think the only way to get abortion illegal would be to ad an amendment to the constitution and there is no way that will ever make it. I can’t believe how divided people are over protecting human life, can we not agree that intentionally taking a human life is evil?
 
Yup @jtwp5 you drive it underground away from proper healthcare providers then you increase the risk of maternal fatality. The women who need an abortion will still seek them out, but more will die procuring them.

I think I’d like to wait to find out whether there is a question about the reproaches laid on him. There is no hurry to rush to a judgment, one way or the other. These are very serious charges, but unlike the charges of Anita Hill there is a chance that someone might be mistaken concerning the identity of the man they’re accusing. There is certainly reason to question the veracity of Julie Swetnick, since she has made harassment claims in the past against people who made harassment claims against her. The company she worked for says the complaints were found to have a basis, but hers were not. They say she was also found to have put information on her resume about her education and prior work experience that did not seem to be true. Julie Swetnick, a Brett Kavanaugh accuser, faced misconduct allegations at Portland company - oregonlive.com
Her story, moreover, is a little odd, since it is her contention that she habitually went to high school drinking parties when she was in college. There aren’t a lot of college students who do that, male or female.

The background abortion argument has been proven false again and again, this is just fear mongering.

Then legalize all forms of murder, because people who want someone dead enough are still committing homicides in spite of the law.
 
Maybe if the pro-birth lobby (let’s not kid ourselves, that’s what this is about), provided actual support to these women then abortion wouldn’t be necessary.
 
I agree, but this is a position that it’s incredibly difficult to remove someone from. Surely it’s better to do at least a thorough due diligence first.

I don’t think that the pro-choice advocates would ever concede the idea that abortion is only a woman’s right in countries where mothers are not provided sufficient help in supporting their children after they are born.
