WASHINGTON — A Yale classmate of Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh’s accused him on Sunday of a “blatant mischaracterization” of his drinking while in college, saying that he often saw Judge Kavanaugh “staggering from alcohol consumption.”
The classmate, Chad Ludington, who said he frequently socialized with Judge Kavanaugh as a student, said in a statement that the judge had been unt***hful in testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee when he had denied any possibility that he had ever blacked out from drinking.
Mr. Ludington said that Judge Kavanaugh had played down “the degree and frequency” of his drinking, and that the judge had often become “belligerent and aggressive” while intoxicated. Other former classmates have made similar claims.
“It is t***h that is at stake, and I believe that the ability to speak the t***h, even when it does not reflect well upon oneself, is a paramount quality we seek in our nation’s most powerful judges,” Mr. Ludington said, adding that he planned to “take my information to the F.B.I.”

Mr. Ludington, a professor at North Carolina State University who appears to have made small political contributions to Democratic candidates, said to The New York Times on Sunday that he had been told by the F.B.I.’s Washington, D.C., field office that he should go to the bureau’s Raleigh, N.C., office on Monday morning. He said he intended to do that, so he could “tell the full details of my story.”It is illegal to lie to Congress. But it was unclear whether the F.B.I. would add Mr. Ludington’s accusations to the newly reopened background investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct against Judge Kavanaugh, which has been limited in scope and time by the White House and Senate Republicans.
The White House had no immediate comment about Mr. Ludington’s accusations.
Even before Mr. Ludington’s statement, Democrats in Washington reacted with anger on Sunday as the narrow scope of the new F.B.I. background inquiry became clear, warning that it threatened to become a sham.
Senator Mazie K. Hirono, a Hawaii Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, said on ABC’s “This Week” that any investigation that limits whom the F.B.I. can interview and which leads agents can follow would be a “farce.”
Senator Amy Klobuchar, a Minnesota Democrat who is also on the committee, described what she said was micromanaging from the White House: “You can’t interview this person, you can’t look at this time period, you can only look at these people from one side of the street from when they were growing up.”
“I mean, come on,” she said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
The White House agreed on Friday to order the F.B.I. to conduct a “limited” one-week supplemental background check of Judge Kavanaugh after a small number of Republicans joined Democrats in demanding an investigation into accusations of sexual misconduct.
White House officials have asked the F.B.I. to interview four witnesses, a typical request in a background check. No evidence has emerged that the White House has forbidden any investigative steps, and President Trump has said he wants agents “to interview whoever they deem appropriate, at their discretion----MORE---

So whats your point BB?

Are you saying that Judge Kavanaugh should not be confirmed to the Supreme Court because he got drunk 35 years ago, and in the opinion of this one person, acted aggressively?

Spare me the sanctimonious BS that he is being nominated to the highest court of the land, and should be pristine pure, and above reproach.

We are all human BB, we make mistakes. We are not perfect. None of us are.

The hypocritical members of congress who sit in judgement of Judge Kavanaugh certainly are not. Take a look at Cory Booker.

A fair and impartial process would view the sum total of a persons lifetime of service. That is how he should be judged. But that is not going to happen.

I for one look forward to seeing Judge Kavanaugh being appointed to the Supreme Court, in spite of all the partisan lies, spin, and slander by the like of Finestein, Schumer, and all the others.

Of course there is no problem with having another less that desirable person in a group that holds on to & supports others with less that honorable ethics.
Heaven for bid that they all have sinned also. Is there to be no honor among the sinful.
The good out boys club has worked well for so long.
How can any one doubt the honor of the good old boys club.

Well the issue is now open & the good old boys club is going to lose it's charter.
I say the good out boys club is & has been part of the swamp.

Trump just wish to put people loyal to him in the swamp.
Every one needs to look at what the right along with the left has added to the swamp.
Then see if there has been good that comes from the swamp & separate it from the bad of the swamp.

It is really not that he was a privileged snotty drunken frat boy years ago, it is that he lied through his teeth about it while under oath. The attempted rape is another matter altogether. Both are disqualifying.

Kevyn,
Arn't you jumping the gun a bit here? You have an unconfirmed report from one individual, not under oath, not corroborated by by other classmates, and yet you take this person's characterization of this event as proof positive. Are you that desperate to grasp at any straw to disqualify Judge Kavanaugh?

Do you feel that 6 prior FBI investigations into Kavanaugh's character and behavior should be discounted on the basis of this one report?

As to Ms. Ford's credibility, I suggest you refer to the post entitled Recap of Christine Ford’s Testimony.

Amazing how lil kev and his ilk take the word of one guy as gospel but the seventy five or more who proclaim Kavanaugh was not aggressive or a drunk are making it up. Getting drunk does not make you a drunk.

Get a grip snowflake. Partying in high school and college doesn't make you a heavy drinker. So in your pea sized mind this makes him a liar, thus unqualified. Does it bother you Ford said she has a fear of flying yet has flown all over?

The omnipotent Kevyn speaks. "Kavanaugh lied throw his teeth under oath." Not sure how he could possibly know who is or isn't lying by watching T.V. but we must believe him. Maybe he was there binge drinking with Brett in college ... or maybe he was holding Brett's pants while he attempted to rape his liberal professor friend. Doesn't matter. The almighty Kevyn has spoken ... we must believe this all knowing, thoroughly impartial poster. He writes with such authority and definiteness.

This guy has posted on OPP 10,384 times and it's the same ole crap over and over. I'll summarize:

"I'm an ill-informed, low-information socialist who believes everything I see and hear on MSNBC. While I'm incapable of independent thought, I'm good at regurgitating what I'm told by my liberal leaders. I will rush to judgement and condemn everyone without due process unless they believe as I do; in which case, I will defend the indefensible and try to rationalize the wildly irrational until I've proven to everyone on OPP just how rabidly ignorant and one-sided I really am."

There. When you see this guys name on top of the post you can save yourself some time ...
