I didn't know about the Harvard thing. First things first, this isn't point scoring for me like how your republicans and democrats do it. This is genuinely me thinking of my own country and what sort of person I want in the supreme court. I would want an above average person. That means above average in logic, in reason, in emotion and all other calibres. I would also want an impartial person who does well to keep his biases to his personal life. So when you say anyone would react like that, i'm saying I don't want anyone on any supreme court, I want the best most competent ones. That's what I am saying. If anyone will behave like that, why not just get a run of the mill judge. And he was there in his capacity to show what kind of justice he will be on the supreme court, like it or not. And he knew he would win. I'm not saying this is a republican thing, but in general parties in any country always stick to their man, more so in US these days, so he 99% knew he was a supreme court justice. Only the formalities remained. If you pretend you didn't know that, then I'm sorry but you have a bias whether you know it or not. So all in all what I saw of Brett cavanaugh, I wouldn't vote for him is all I say without any sort of affiliation bias

Look, just because you say you're unbiased doesn't mean you're not.  There is no overlap between a man's reaction to being accused of a heinous crime and his ability to function as a judge.  He's functioned as a judge for over a decade and was widely held to be the model of a professional.  Instead of using that, you only look at his reaction to watching his whole reputation burned for pure political purposes by senators that truly were acting atrociously.  This mugging a man and leaving him without the reputation that he carefully built throughout his life and expecting him to not strike back at his tormentors is simply ridiculous.  Again, his life is never going to be the same.  His daughter's lives will never be the same.  His wife's life will never be the same.  This doesn't wipe away because the news cycle turns.  It's his life going forward forever.  And you're basically using a "You mad bro" standard of judging him.

And, again, his confirmation was far from assured.  If you believe that he wasn't in danger of not passing, you weren't paying attention.

I have no love lost from either party. You can search through my posts about what I think of the US. I've been banned for that stuff. So I can say I'm unbiased and mean it. And if truly believe he was in danger of not being confirmed, you don't know how the parties in your country function. The 2 parties are not interested in what will be best for the country, they are interested in whether they keep making money or not. That's why you have gerrymandering from both sides, why healthcare and education are issues that never get resolved and why they lie about different things like immigrants, or the influence the wealthy have on both of them. Why Clinton screwed Bernie over and why people like Ted Cruz gave up any sense of decency to bow down to the new emperor of the republican party
