Rooting for rape? The awkward position of the left
I have been blogging for well over ten years now and there have been highs and lows, political battles won and political battles lost, and there have been times when writing was easy and times when writing was hard. But there has never been a time like this. A time which makes me question why I even bother paying attention to politics at all. A time which makes me question why I care or why I try.
I am talking about the Brett Kavanaugh situation and the accusations against him, but I am not talking about the politicians. I expect the politicians to be ambitious, designing men and women with no scruples or morals who will do or say anything to get elected and reelected. I am talking about the leftist voters and what I noticed on Facebook yesterday.
If you go on Facebook you will see that the right naturally believes the women are lying and the left has already convicted Brett Kavanaugh and believe he is lying and nobody is concerned with the truth or waiting for it to play out.
But that is just the beginning because it has gone way beyond hoping for justice with the left, that would be understandable, and has reached the point where the left is actively routing for, and hoping that, these women were raped by Brett Kavanaugh. Rooting for rape? That is the awkward position of the left, but it has a position they have gleefully taken because it would help them and their agenda. And how are we supposed to debate when one side comes from such a position? How can we reason with people who have lost all reason?
But that is where we are and it is so frustrating. Since Donald Trump was elected we have joked about enjoying a systematic and steady decline of sanity from the left. We have laughed at how he was driving them insane. It was fun watching them scream at the sky but it is no longer fun because now they are rooting for evil because they believe it will help their political agenda.
“Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.” (1 Corinthians 13:6 NIV) But nobody is interested in waiting for the truth for “their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall.” (Proverbs 4:16 KJV)
Where do we go from here?
America's Watchtower 
If the media’s respected truth, Justice and fair play this debacle would have been upended in day one or day two. But their hypocrisy, dishonesty and hatred for anyone and anything anti-left along with a soap opera loving empty headed public we now have a perfect storm augmented by the inability of the republicans to see the nose in front of their faces. While it now seems that once again the Democrats will be shooting fish in a barrel there is a slim chance that this may turn out well for Kavanaugh; don’t count on it.

I think you nailed it, especially the part about the Republicans. We expect this from the media and from the Dems but the Republicans have mishandled this whole thing.
