100%. It's how 'practically grab them right in the pussy' or whatever it was got through. He just shrugged and said: look, this was locker room talk on a hot mic. It's how guys talk, it's how some women in that area are around celebrities, and it was supposed to be a private conversation between two dudes.

The majority of America is going to look at what is happening and think "I had a few beers when I was 15, we're having congressional hearings over this? We should probably fire these dipshits in congress"

I would hope a step further and look in the direction of the news: they are the ones perpetuating this nonsense.

Think in this case the news is doing everyone a favor, and making sure that Kavanaugh goes through.

They're making it about a teenage boy that got drunk and made immature remarks about sex in his yearbook as a joke. Teenage boy? Immature? Inconceivable!

What i'm looking forward to is people digging into others involved in these hearings. If the news cycle in recent years taught me anything, the people that go on and on about someone elses (usually very mild) mistakes of the past are the ones who did some really twisted shit back in their youth.
