Ty the attacks were based on lies, distortions and defamatory schmears. That is a borking. Also, please explain the point of a demo senate staffer obtaining and leaking the list of movies he rented from his local video store in the first weeks after the appointment.
Here is an example of the lies and smear rhetoric from a man who while drunk drove his car into the drink and then cowardly left a young girl (who was carrying the lovechild of either him or his late brother?) to die a brutally horrific death while he went to his wealthy parents' home, napped, showered and initiated a lie-filled coverup (ie Senator Edward Kennedy) --
"Robert Bork's America is a land in which women would be forced into back-alley abortions, blacks would sit at segregated lunch counters, rogue police could break down citizens' doors in midnight raids, children could not be taught about evolution"
Is there any shame on the left?
