Unsolicited Advice to Judge Kavanaugh: Sue Them All
Real Clear Politics ^ | 10/05/2018 | L. Lin Wood

“Which office do I go to get my reputation back?” -- former Labor Secretary Ray Donovan.

But under our system of justice there is a place where an individual can go to seek redress and accountability for accusations that destroy reputation.

------------------------------------------------------- As you well know, the law provides that republishers of unsubstantiated, false accusations are liable for such accusations even when initially made by others if they republish those accusations with a reckless disregard for truth or falsity. Since at least 1896, our courts have recognized the legal maxim that “talebearers are as bad as talemakers” in the eyes of the law

Your list is long. NBC, MSNBC, CNN, The New York Times, USA Today, The New Yorker, and the parade of individuals of all stripes who cannot resist the lure of the bright lights and cameras to echo and validate your accusers in the media. And to restore some public faith in our profession, include on your list a lawyer named Michael Avenatti, who has abused and demeaned you and our system of justice for personal publicity, fame, and fortune.

Yeah right. They drag it out and appeal to the SCOTUS, Watch Karen or Ruth Buzz Ginsburg be on call to accept the case. Kavenaugh recuses himself. 4/4 tie and he looses

This was a political battle, which is appears Kavanaugh will win. Actions are taken by either side, for political benefit.

So ask yourself - what is the political benefit to Trump, the GOP or Conservatives of Kavanaugh suing his accusers - no matter how deserved it is?

Forget suing. Criminal actions were committed. Go after the criminals.

The radicals won't stop until people are made to pay a price within our justice system...that any of the rest of us would have to face.

It may not completely stop them, but it might give some of them pause.

Doing nothing / zero repercussions only emboldens them.

that is my earnest hope...will be interesting to see how deep this thing goes..

if mcclean wanted leland to change her testimony, why didsn’t she just say she was at the party in the first place...must be a reason for that..did they think lelands illness would prevent her from telling the truth? ford sure made it appear leland had mental problems..she not only threw her under the bus but backed up a few times..

Just become the most extreme conservative Supreme Court Justice ever. Make the liberals cry and wail. Make them hurt forever. And mention to historians that they drove you to being an extreme conservative, and that if they had not worked so hard to destroy your reputation the outcome might have more lenient decisions. Give liberals butthurt!

I agree he should sue if not for himself but for our system of checks and balances as well to uphold the rule of law. Consequences for this evil from the liberals has been sorely lacking.

The Godless communists and cultural Marxists have never been called to account. That is why they continue to do it. The powers that be and the dominant culture reckons their “hearts are in the right place,” and there’s the end to it.

Let us not suppose that your position is to fall back and remain on the defensive. Justice demands accountability, political motives or not. JMHO
