So the Repubs are corrupt but the Dems are some degree more corrupt yet that "degree" causes you to hate the Dems. the way you do - wow.

"So the Repubs are corrupt "
Some, sadly yes. There are tens of millions of, any group that size has bad apples.
"the Dems are some degree more corrupt"
A lot more.
"that "degree" causes you to hate the Dems"
I dislike their policies, and especially dislike their methods. I see Republicans trying to talk about issues, and the democrat response is, way too often, an accusation of hate. I hate the identity politics. I keep hearing liberals talking about the Kavanaugh case in terms of race. Everyone involved is white, why is it a racial issue? |

The senators are not making race an issue. The entire liberal media is, "look at all these old white guys judging poor Dr Ford".
I don't see a racial component to this. |

Just pointing out the lack of diversity (age, sex and race) on the panel, how it didn't change from the Thomas hearings and how they did not want to question her so they farmed it out.

I don't see a racial component either.
And I think if K has problems at this point it isn't what he may or may not have done to Ford. |

Who cares? Why does gender and skin color correlate with due process?
"And I think if K has problems at this point it isn't what he may or may not have done to Ford"
I respect you for saying that, and you may well be right. |

If you think that Republicans focus on identity politics more than Democrats, well, suffice to say I disagree. That's practically all you hear from democrats these days. |
