  1. Yes, Art did defend himself, that is what defendants do. Unfortunatly for Mr. Briles, there was a bit of additional evidence other than his denials, there is none in this case. This comes down to whether you believe Ms. Ford or Justice Kavanaugh. I assume you don't like his judicial philosophy, so I believe this will be an additional reason you do not like this pick.
  2. In my mind (without addressing your "reasonable adults would think critically and seriously"), he defended himself against allegations made by another. Nothing more. I'm more interested in his judicial philosophy.
  3. I guess a simple "I disavow the allegations" would have reflected a better supreme court temperment, akin to Learned Hand? I don't really see how this in any way reflects negatively with respect to his numerous legal opinions in the various courts he has served. These are serious allegations, he had denied them numerous times leading up to the hearing. I believe he believed he needed to express his true feelings about those allegations. It seems he cannot win either way.
  4. So let me get this straight, the guy denies the allegations, and they are extreme allegations, with some viseral reaction, and that makes him unfit to serve? That is an argument of some? What would you like him to do, just defer?
