Dems say Kavanaugh should recuse from cases involving party: 'He revealed himself as a partisan'

Democrats on Sunday said that if Judge Brett Kavanaugh is confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court, he should recuse himself from cases involving congressional Democrats because of his “partisan” performance during last week’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.

“I think the proper thing would be, yes,” Rep. Jerrold Nadler said on ABC’s “This Week.” “I was astonished at his rant… he’s supposed to be non-partisan.”

“His animus toward the entire Democratic party, toward people associated with it like the Clintons, should be disqualifying,” said Mr. Nadler, the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee. “He showed no judicial temperament.”

Sen. Mazie Hirono said on the program that the judge’s performance showed that he’s a political and “partisan” operative and that “the veil is revealed.”

“He revealed himself as a partisan,” said Ms. Hirono, Hawaii Democrat. “I would think that if I were a Democrat going before him, I’d ask him to recuse himself.”

Maybe Facebook and Twitter should do the same.

He revealed himself as a man who was angry for being attacked and having his wife and children go through this all for an unsubstantiated, unbelievable tale. Can't say I blame the man. No, he should not recuse himself. He may retain a bit of anger towards the Democrats. I'd say you brought that upon yourself. Reap the wind, sow the whirlwind.

Well it is the Dems who are causing all the problems. Who is he supposed to blame? The Dems have acted outrageously and partisan against him. I sure hope he gets in, but at this point he may not want it anymore. Hope he sticks it out!!
