like - it's not important what someone did in their teenage years???????

hmmm - so, we should just forget the teenage, high school shooter mass murderers?

Like - when they want to be high court judges - we should just forget the past?

Funny - I might be different - but, when someone does something when they are young - if they are engaged in a normal position in life - it shouldn't be forgotten - but, it does not take on the same level of importance or interest than if it involves someone who is going for a gig in the highest Court of law in the nation -

and, for a 'life' role - and, a role where they will actually be judging the legal and sometimes moral issues of law

hmmmm ---------- I think it might just be a good idea to hear all sides of the story - particularly from someone who is not anonymous and who will be testifying under oath

lets face facts here ---------- Donald Trumps record at picking duds and failures is world class -

so, it would be extremely wise to tread very carefully with such an important position to be filled.

Of course Trump supporters might think differently - that oath thingy being what it is - and, for some reason - people want actual facts and not Trumpfacts -- funny that

Society is placing an impossibly high bar on public officials.

A teenage boy groping a teenage girl at a party, is hardly an act that should be held over someone's head 40 years later.

Coupled with the #MeToo movement, we effectively have a situation where merely asking a girl out decades previously can now be cause to deny you a job.
