Lady Justice's blindfold: Addendum





      In my article about Lady Justice's blindfold, I neglected to mention yet another glaring example of hyper-partisanship obscuring otherwise rational people from, well, being rational.

      Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh was accused of sexual misconduct back when he was much younger.  Was the accuser's testimony of the alleged event true and factual?  Well, that depends on whether you are a Democrat or a Republican.  The judgement thereof went right down party lines.

      How did we devolve into a nation whereby a person's guilt or innocence is determined by the political affiliation of the accuser and the defendant?
