In my former blog I got caught in the Flint water scandal (declared "National Disaster" by Obama) and followed up the issue from the first water analysis to the fate of the millions channeled to Flint. Now I am being fascinated by the Brett Kavanaugh debate in the Senate. Kavanaugh is a Republican nominee, in a country divided. The trial, because that is what is, was carefully orchestrated. Feinstein kept the sexually abused woman in reserve till the moment came to make her public. The tactic was to gain time and leave the position open, so she was not allowed to fly - under false pretenses - to Washington. The Democrats did not let the issue be finished in the Committee, they lost but won a week and complicated the process by an FBI investigation aimed at collecting dirt on the candidate.
My impression that it is reasonable that two drunk teenagers tried to play with the drunk girl, but at 17 they were virgins and did not know how to do it. No penetration nor anything resembling it. To inflate this episode into a gang rape is ludicrous. The police would not even register the incident, as no one was hurt and they were all underage and drunk. Basically, nothing happened.
Brett had an enviable youth, a week in the beach with his friends, sports, beers, fun. None of the identity hang ups of a refugee Jew like me. He was happily unaware that he was the ruling class of America and "privileged". He appears a serious, responsible candidate to the Supreme Judge, a man born and raised for the job. I see nothing wrong with him.
I assume the second raw were sitting the Senators' assistants and trainees, the future generation of American legislators. There was an immobile fat African woman, is she the next "Wise Latina"/"Wise Bantu"? Heather Sawyer, a homo activist and minority counsel for the House Judiciary Committee, was there. As we use to say, we survived the Pharaoh, we shall survive them too. Sad to see America so hysterical and divided.
