Now, why oh why would Kirsten Powers pretend she was actually totally fair to Justice Brett Kavanaugh and claim there is no ‘Kavanaugh double standard’? Oh, that’s right, she doesn’t want people pointing out how grossly hypocritical she is now for defending Joe Biden and pretending Tara Reade is some sort of right-wing smear campaign from the GOP to end his campaign.
Luckily we have folks like Jim Treacher on the right, who are more than happy to hold our friend Kirsten accountable.

“Margaret, I just sat here and listened to you go on and basically smear this woman… You just basically said, you know him and he didn’t do it. And that’s irrelevant, and you know that it’s irrelevant." — @KirstenPowers, 9/19/18 https://t.co/WHXXZCppoc

"Repeating over and over that you want a fair process but not really answering the questions, I don’t think necessarily bolsters him… It will have its intended effect which is to portray him as somebody who’s being persecuted." — @KirstenPowers, 9/24/18 https://t.co/d7itjINS4x

"Has anyone else noticed how refusing to just take the word of a man and asking for a fair investigation has been cast as an scurrilous attack on a good man's reputation? This is what male privilege looks like." — @KirstenPowers, 10/4/18 https://t.co/LDwCBXzrHR
