They're pretty much at the point of flat out lying about things, like the prayer case. Sotomayor, in her dissent, included actual photographs of the coach huddling/praying with the whole team, which is quite coercive behavior. It wasn't a 'quiet prayer'.

The problem is they lie all day, every day, even about trivial stuff that’s easily verified. This looks more like an admission of guilt.

They don’t care. They’re arguing in bad faith. It’s also called lying or being full of shit.

Yes, I am surprised at how quiet they've been this week. Must've grown tired of having every new denial answered with a new document showing them to be lying again.

So, they are blatantly lying?

I wouldn't take their description of these events as gospel. They clearly use selective information disclosure to enhance their case. For example, they imply their investigative journalism led to Drell no longer being employed at Stanford. She is the Director of Stanford Linear Accelerator.

In short: this individual is not operating on level and is attempting to make stanford's administration look more evil than they actually are. The statements about lies are literally only believed by this one individual.


They're lying.

They're lying.

What I find odd isn't that they don't tell the truth. I never expected them to. That they didn't remain silent on the issue is odd though. What can denying possibly gain them at this point other than tanking their credibility?

They're just lying.

Yes, they are clearly lying and misleading a whole lot on the stand. Or at least plausibly denying.

It is just not convincing. Their action tells all.

The people in question all lied so much that you can't even put together a straight narrative... seems to be a moderately effective defense.

Anything a FIFA spokesman says is immediately suspect and usually 180 degrees from what is actually going on.

You know when those people are lying, the first clue is their lips moving.


At this point, it's "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me", like it's tough to believe anything they say at this point.

its crazy when they lie like this, it makes you wonder what other stuff they are lying about.

The truth is like that. It's the side that is not arguing in good faith that can come up with new allegations at any time.

lol. they just flat out lied about Roe and "settled law" during their interviews and you're standing up for them? Come on. They absolutely sold their soul to get on the bench, there's not a single doubt there. Except Thomas, he is just a plain old evil grumpy old man.

Yeah, right. Like those liars didn’t say in their confirmation hearing that Roe vs Wade was an established precedent and wouldn’t be touched. Either you are so gullible that you still believe them against all the evidence or you are in bad faith. Tertium non datur.

Who's being dishonest here? That's a serious allegation to make when the facts don't seem to support it.
