That's a domestic violence charge by his estranged wife. Not in the same class as the others.

No, it isn't. His estranged wife issued a statement that she was not the woman involved in the alleged incident.

Bauman has called for a full investigation. I'm still waiting on the first Republican to call for any sort of an investigation when he's been accused.

No need to wait. You must not have looked very hard, as the list in the first Google hit includes 2:

The 25 Candidates for 2018 Sunk by #MeToo Allegations

Rod Hamilton, Minnesota state representative, Republican

Allegation: The Star Tribune reported on April 27 that the Minnesotan Emily Schlecht, who works as an advocate for sexual-assault survivors, had filed a police report accusing Hamilton of unwanted touching.

Response: “I categorically deny accusations of sexual assault,” Hamilton said in a statement. “I deeply regret the effect my actions had on Ms. Schlecht.” Hamilton also said he reported the incident to the state House of Representatives’ human-resources department. The House hired two attorneys to investigate whether Hamilton violated the chamber’s harassment policy.

Status: House Republican leaders suspended Hamilton as the leader of a committee. He remains in office, and is running for reelection. An investigation is ongoing under the Minnesota state legislature’s sexual-harassment policy.

Next election will be: 2018


David Shafer, Georgia state senator and lieutenant gubernatorial candidate, Republican

Allegation: On March 6, a female statehouse lobbyist filed a sexual-harassment complaint with the Georgia General Assembly alleging that Shafer retaliated against her after she refused his advances.

Response: Shafer denied the allegations: “This false complaint is about politics, not the truth, and that’s why it is no coincidence that it was filed the day after I qualified to run for lieutenant governor,” he told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “I welcome an investigation and will cooperate fully.”

Status: On April 13, the state Senate Ethics Committee announced that it did not find evidence to support the harassment claim in its investigation into Shafer’s conduct and the claim was dismissed. Shafer remains in office, but lost the lieutenant gubernatorial primary in late July.

Next election will be: 2018

Well, no one could put Kavanaugh at the same party as his accuser, and it was 30 years ago.

With Fairfax, he admits to being in the same room, and it was only 15 years ago.

So yeah, $5 million down the drain for WaPo.

He's a dem, so nobody's gonna make a stink about it. He can advocate killing new born infants, no problem there. And he can't get in any trouble for putting on blackface. So he's good to go. Just more fake news from the usual right-wing sources, right aSSShole?

No, what Democrats do is investigate claims and call for people to accept responsibility, as judged by the many people who have said Northam should resign. They don't just circle the wagons and judge things on a results oriented basis as Republicans did with Kavanaugh. Based on what I've heard so far, there's far less substantiation of this woman's claim than there was of Kavanaugh's. And one thing we've found with sexual predators is that they rarely do it once. If Fairfax assaulted this woman, it's a fair bet he did it with others and they will be considerably more likely to come forward now.

As for "advocating killing newborn infants," that's the usual right wing misrepresentation when they try to fan flames about any issue related to abortion. So, it's par for the course for you, Flock.

I'm not sure you actually live in the same reality as the rest of us.

How were the accusations against Kavanaugh more substantiated? There was absolutely no substantiation. At the end of the day, none.

With regards to killing babies, have you heard the actual words coming out of Northam's mouth? He was even given the opportunity to clarify what he said. He confirmed it. Live birth. Then the doctor and mother decide IF they will continue to keep the baby alive, or let it die.

And the left compares Republicans to Nazis. smh

As usual, you left a few things out. Here's Northam's quote (and he is a pediatric neurosurgeon by the way and knows a good bit more about this branch of medicine than the yahoos who are out to get him):

[Late term abortion] is done in cases where there may be severe deformities. There may be a fetus that's not viable. So in this particular example, if a mother's in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered, the infant would be kept comfortable, the infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the family desired. And then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.

What this means is that the physician and mother would discuss whether to continue keeping a non-viable baby alive through extraordinary measures. That's the exact same situation that parents face when dealing with a minor child of any age in that situation.

Josef Mengele was pretty smart, too.

This is personal for me. Something over 17 years ago, my sister and her husband faced that exact decision. They learned during my sister's third trimester that their daughter would be born without several organs that are simply vital for life outside the womb. Extraordinary measures could have extended her existence for a few hours, or possibly days, but she had no chance of extended survival. And the measures necessary to achieve this extension would have been highly intrusive (in the medical sense) and, to the extent she could feel pain, quite painful for my niece.

My sister and their husband, together with their doctor, made the decision to let nature take its course after birth. My niece died a few hours after she was born. Our family gathered from across the country for the funeral. So when you compare my sister, or anyone else who had to face this heartbreaking tragedy, to Josef Mengele, you can go fuck yourself. --Bob
