What I don't understand about the Kavanaugh case is why he lied to such a degree. His attempts to paint himself as a choir boy in his younger years are so transparent. Does anyone really believe that he and all his friends called themselves "alumni" of some girl they knew as a way of showing their respect? It's amazing to me that he didn't go with "yes I was a shitty kid, but I didn't try to assault anyone" instead of "Alcohol sir? I was much too busy with my studies to party".

I'd take him out of contention just for being someone that's willing to lie with such regularity.

Exactly, he should be disqualified for the position based on that testimony alone. But this is such a partisan decision that the republican feel the need to push him through no matter what.
