If I was a Republican I'd be proud of Jackson hearing

The respect Republicans are treating this lady with stands in stark contrast to how democrats have been treating recent Republican presidential nominees. Questions have been based on policy and judicial decisions and have been tough but fair. No personal attacks, no unsubstantiated allegations no attempt to destroy her and her family. They truly are the adults in the room and are schooling democrats on how these hearings should be conducted. It's a pleasant change to not be embarrassed for my country watching this dignified proceeding.

I take it you missed Josh Hawley's contribution, then.

By staying inside of sentencing guidelines?

Don't pretend there's any dignity in any of this. It's the same old tired shit.
As per the OP her decision was questioned not her character. You only confirm the OP with your post on it.

Horseshit. You and I both know what Hawley was trying to imply.

Other than his commentary on her going easy on pedophiles?

Hirono went through all the Republican appointed judges who have sentenced child porn defendants to below guideline punishments and the Republican legislators who voted to confirm them.

This is part where stone throwing Republicans in glass house cry.

Ya Beverly Leslie Graham producing fake outrage. Then the drama queen walks out. Graham is the poster child for Congressional term limits.

Unfortunately that's her judicial record.

Its hypocrisy.

You are making my point for me. No personal just no attempt to destroy her life, just questions and comments on her rulings and judicial philosophy. If I was Republican I'd be proud. As an American I'm heartened.

Agree or not, right or wrong it's based on her rulings as it should be.

Just holding her to standard to which they did not hold Republican nominees, and for good reason. Its a bogus issue. It's reckless and dangerous..

Best you can do? Worst personal attack on Jackson you can come up with? You make my point for me.
Cotton hasn’t finished up yet, don’t count your chickens……

If that constitutes abuse then what was the Kavanaugh hearing? Genocide?

It's not :poop: but it is more spin than fact.

If this is the worst that is said, it was a creampuff of a hearing. As OP says, this should be the standard and Democrats are not meeting it.

But only for Democrats. Republican nominees' rulings that are similar get a pass.

No one has accused Jackson of sexual assault.
