They are certainly different, but they are both wrong.


I could flip it on its head - at least Kavanaugh got a hearing, and what will happen ultimately, at least I think, is that Kavanaugh will be confirmed and be none the worse for wear. But yeah this is a very ugly look - for the dems, I suspect.

Shirking your responsibility as the repubs did just because they could - maybe you don't like the word sleazy. Maybe you'd prefer irresponsible, but it left one very important branch of govt hobbled for an extended period of time, unnecessarily, just for political expediency, and now with all this talk of "elections having consequences" among the repubs - apparently they don't always feel it necessary to live by that principle. Just when the other guy is suffering the consequences.

I'm ok with slapping the word "sleazy" on that, especially in this thread's context.
