Sen. Hatch had to deal with a loudmouthed idiot screaming over the top of his opening remarks. Why the police didn't remove that heckler is beyond me. There's a time and place for having your voice heard, and shouting over the top of someone is neither.

The Dems are so annoying.

I was watching on FNC, but they kept interrupting to run commercials. It was annoying. They cut off most of Cruz's opening remarks for a commercial.

Fred Guttenberg, father of a Parkland High School victim, ambushed Kavanaugh when the committee broke for lunch. Now the narrative being spun by Fred and the media is that Kavanaugh gave him a dirty look after Fred introduced himself and refused to shake Fred's hand.

Ridiculous. First, no member of public should be able to get that close to the nominee during the hearings. Not with the radical left-wing wackos out there. Second, Kavanaugh was already walking away when Fred reached out and tried grabbing at his arm. I'd have the same reaction as Brett. "Who are you?" Then to be ambushed by a publicity seeking, politically motivated person, Brett made the right decision to walk away.

If Fred really wants to talk to Brett, he should call his office and set up an appointment.

I heard that the Administration dumped a 40,000 page document on Kavanaugh's history and qualifications... just last night. One on the panel stated that this has been of great disservice to Kavanaugh, leaving him only 10% vetted. Another stated that with the information they have, they wouldn't even hire him as an intern.

I see no glaring reason why he shouldn't be approved. I'm just wondering why did the Administration nominating Kavanaugh hurt the very process to get Kavanaugh seated?

It wasn't the administration, it was the nominee who released more documents. The administration and nominee had already released 150,000 pages of Kavanaugh's history.

Much of the Dems protest is just that, protest and performance. So when one of them claims they wouldn't hire Kavanaugh as an intern, it shouldn't be taken seriously.

They've had plenty of time and more than enough documents to vet this nominee. In fact, there have been more documents of Kavanaugh released than any of the previous SCOTUS nominees.

I hate dirty politics.

I guess this is just how the game is played.

Anyway, while I may not agree with him on everything, I don't see a glaring reason not to confirm him.
