For many years, liberals were tarred and feathered for being pro-crime, pro-dangerous drugs, pro-abortion (I don't personally think it's murder, but many do), and pro-illegal immigration. However, with Access Hollywood, Charlottesville, the kneejerk acceptance of anything Brett Kavanaugh says, have they given up on being the "Good Guys"?

Charlottesville was the alt-right not the right. It was condemned by every major figure on the right except Trump

Voting for him after Access Hollywood was a disgrace but the right werent the only ones who did as he would have lost if they were the only ones who did so.


Brett Kavanaugh is more similar to Broddrick's accusation of Clinton than Roy Moore(who by the way lost thanks to the Senate GOP going all in against him and more than Half of AL GOP voters staying home) .

The Left has certainly taken the lead in the sophistry contest, although the Right will put up a good fight the next time an illegal alien or refugee rapes and murders a girl.

yes, and liberals have given up being the liberal party too.  The two major parties are getting worse and worse.  If we were smart, we'd punish them...but, ya know, the "lesser of two evils" BS keeps you hacks lining up to vote for the slightly smaller pile of dung.  It's your fault way more than it is the evil bastards you keep voting in.  Evil bastards are going to be evil bastards.

Yeah, I am disappointed when liberals don't share the same outrage toward sexual assault when it's a migrant doing it...and vice-versa for the Right when it's a conservative white man.

They were never the moral high ground to begin with.  You can't lose something you never had.

They've become hijacked by the most rigid and most radical religious fundamentalists in the country - they come from the pit of Hell.

So every major figure on the right besides the one Republican voters actually care about and listen to.
