The Left Is Turning Justice Upside Down

To The Reader’s Forum:

Telling everyone not to pre-judge Dr. Ford, the left pre-judged guilt on Judge Kavanaugh. Like Dr. Everett Piper of Oklahoma Wesleyan University in the Washington Times wrote, “If a man is accused of being a witch, then he’s a witch. Salem (otherwise known as the U.S. Senate and our nation’s media) will bind him and throw him into the deep. If he drowns, he’s a witch. If he floats, he’s a witch. Either way, he’s a witch.”

Disrespecting Dr. Ford’s wish for privacy, her leaked letter at the 11th hour milked the public’s emotions to leverage political advantage for stopping Kavanaugh. To the left, Dr. Piper remarks, “Lady Justice is apparently not blind. In fact, she seems to be well aware of race, gender, color of hair and tone of voice. She sees the tears and the quivering chin. She peaks under her blindfold and makes judgments, not because of objective facts, but rather by how she feels. The scales of credibility are tilted toward emotion rather than balanced by the weight of the actual evidence.”

The second most powerful person in the Democrat party, Keith Ellison, running for attorney general in Minnesota is accused of sexual abuse by former girlfriend Karen Monahan. “I’ve been smeared, threatened, isolated from my own [Democrat] party,” she tweeted. “I provided medical records from 2017…. I shared multiple texts between me and Keith, where I discuss the abuse with him and much more.” Not enough evidence says the left! However, for a woman accusing a man from the right, just make an accusation without substantiation and guilt is automatically declared.

Thanks to Lindsey Graham for seeing through the charade and calling out the shamelessness of the senatorial witch-hunters and voicing what many of us common-sense, fact-base, evidence-driven, objective-minded people wanted to have said.

We’re witnessing the constitutional procedure of “advise and consent” transform into a mob-like “search and destroy” mission for hanging judicial “heretics” lynched by the witch-hunters of the left intolerant of any view that strays from their political plantation.

The left says that Kavanaugh is unfit for the court since he allegedly threw ice in a bar during college. It’s laughable, yet even worse than character assassination, a leftist Georgetown professor called for the death of all white male senators.

The cruelty doesn’t stop. A cartoonist on the left drew a cartoon mocking Kavanaugh’s 10 year old daughter praying at bedtime for Dr. Ford. Who’s the grown-up here: a leftist adult doing a hit-job on a 10 year old or Judge Kavanaugh’s daughter who prayed for his accuser?
