Was she? He didn't seem to care much. He went on every network he could to tell us the 'story' of 9/11 "Hijackings and boxcutters". In 2006, under oath, the FBI testified his claim of receiving a call from his wife didn't happen. He lied.
"A society deadened by a smothering network of laws while finding release in moral chaos is not likely to be either happy or stable." -Robert Bork Former Solicitor General of the United States
Bork just came across as a man who enjoyed gamesmanship too much. He didn't come across as prudent, cautious or contemplative. He conducted his interviews as if he enjoyed attention more than he enjoyed being a public servant. That made him dangerous to the people. He had an ego so enlarged he tripped over it.
I think Jefferson was opposed to creating the Supreme Court, and he fought John Marshall over whether the Court should have the power to overturn acts of Congress.
He fired the prosecutor and then resigned. Then the others urged him to stay on until a new AG was found. His thinking was that Nixon would just keep firing people, which he would have. Nixon routinely re-shuffled and shook up his cabinets.
@@crimony3054 he didn't resign immediately, I think. He claimed to have intended to, but to have been persuaded not to. That was a poor judgment. I understand why he fired the prosecutor - the President was arguably entitled to have someone carry out his orders - but the appropriate course was then to resign immediately.
I found the person conducting the interview to be bias towards the views of Mr. Olson. Not what I have come to expect from Frontline. And no questions about the controversial 2000 election decision by the Supreme Court, and Mr. Olson's part in that case? Pathetic.
Charles Martin: While it was mildly interesting to allow Olson uninterrupted talking time, I too wd have wished for more depth, more pushback. Olson did not even listen to most of Kavanaugh’s accuser’s poignant accusations. I know blacks, admittedly D’s, who met Thomas in person & were repulsed by him. I agree w some of his last points. Our process has become ugly. Ugly ppl, IMO, like K, do indeed besmirch the Court. K’s “fighting back” in Olson’s words, was a true bottom. I had read some of K’s work, was even briefly impressed he reversed himself after working as GWB’s Secretary, but the R’s demeaned themselves by refusing to be transparent, and before / disallowing the Garland nomination to proceed in regular order. R’s embrace process when it suits them.
There were statutes, timelines for recounts, The Democrats thought they could keep extending things. The Republicans fought back. You lost. Get over it.
@@lincolnmaceachern2410 I voted for Ralph Nader in that election. So I didn't have a dog in the 2000 fight. Nevertheless I didn't like some of the tactics used by the Republicans during the Florida dispute, even though it appears Bush won the state by a slim margin. In any case, I could say the same to you now in 2020. Trump lost. Get over it.
I wish that all men in positions of power would take a class and listen to professionals in this field (working with women who have been sexually assaulted, raped or harassed) and listen to some of the victims and what it’s done to them psychologically and emotionally and then maybe they could learn that no woman is going to testify falsely about assault. I’m not talking about “buyers remorse”. I think there are some women who make a bad decision and have sex and think they’ll get something from it like a promotion, movie part, whatever and when things don’t turn out the way they bargained for then they FEEL taken advantage of and they turn it into something it’s not. That’s very different from sexual assault and workplace harassment.
It is especially interesting when he is asked about Kavanaugh and how the Kavanaugh he know was not the person that Ford testified him to be. He said the same thing about Thomas. What conservative men don't understand is that when men interact with other men- and when they interact with other women - that same man could be vastly different. Abusive men are socially considered to be the "salt of the earth". It does not mean they don't abuse women. For this reason, I sadly feel conservative men will never understand or believe women. Olson will never see the side of conservative men that are abusive - they are smart enough to know not to bring that side out.
Our duty is to hear those allegations, but we do not have the obligation to believe. I listened to every word Blasey-Ford had to say, I observed her demeanor, her voice, interactions with her lawyers, and did not believe she was convincing. Thomas and Kavanaugh are both conservative and yet vastly different. The tactics used by the democrats to destroy them were identical except they went to the extreme against Kavanaugh because he was a Trump nominee and a "white man of privilege." Thankful that he fought back!
Woman InTech - It would have been different had the other people (both male and female) whom she said were there and witnessed her attack would have corroborated it. Most people seem to believe that something happened to her somewhere by somebody, but that she is likely melding the drinking party that night with another night or time that she was attacked, possibly also under the influence of alcohol.
I don't see it as revenge. Democrats established the rules of engagement when justice Bork was borked and then sexual misconduct accusations were brought 3 times. Most people don't believe that well established judges were all sexual predators and we didn't know about it until after they were selected and the appointment process started. The precedent to follow was established and now, it will be followed. I moved from being an independent to a republican after strike 3.
Is noone going to comment on how ridiculous his hair is???. How dellusional do you have to be to look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself that looks good??? Lol
Dave Ware - That is the only reason Garland didn’t get in. He wasn’t a bad guy. Also, Joe Biden is on tape years earlier stating that he did not support the installation of a Supreme Court Justice the year of a Presidential election.

the video description explains exactly why she was on that plane...
"Trail of Tears?" This reporter needs to read on history. The comparison is really hollow.
Bork's name became a verb.
Bush v Gore was a disaster.
it never would've come down to gore v bush if gore would've won his home state of tennessee.
Glad gore lost
Wow , bork fired the special prosecutor ? I forgot that detail...on that Saturday night ? ...bork borked the prosecutor ...that was the Lynch pin ...

@@jimferris9447 Excellent point.
Great, now do Bill Clinton, Joe Biden, and Al Franken.
The man, Robert Bork, defended the Jim Crow laws. You have got to be frackin kidding me.
What Jim Crow laws did he defend?
A conservative? Accused of sexual harassment? Name a better duo. I'll wait.
Revenge is a non-virtuous concept, almost evil. Love how PBS equates Justice Kavanaugh’s confirmation with revenge. Well done.
Eddie Brahhh - Why do you love it?
It may be evil, but it is sweet.

The more republicans on the SC, the more power goes to big corporations.
The corona flu shutdowns done by the states hurt small businesses and helped corporations. And the Left screamed for shutdowns.
@Red Dead Not for me, but I'll answer Yes. Democrats actually support big corporate agendas as you can see by the way things are stacked.
Olson’s analysis of Kavanaugh’s hearing conduct is weak and almost embarrassing…
Merrick Garland forever.
Would it make you both feel better to know Garland & Kavanagh sided together 96% of the time.
Merrick garland got treated the way bork did.
Pay backs are a bitch
Dave Ware - That is the only reason Garland didn’t get in. He wasn’t a bad guy. Also, Joe Biden is on tape years earlier stating that he did not support the installation of a Supreme Court Justice the year of a Presidential election.
So happy garland never got a confirmation hearing.
