Holy shit! John Heilman (MSNBC analyst) knew Mark Judge when he (Heilman) was a . . . .

[Stinky The Clown]

. . . . bartender in Georgetown. He said he was exactly as described now: a slovenly, obnoxious, loutish, thuggish, drunk.

Hahahahahaha






Live on O'Donnell's hour at the 10.17 mark.

1. Haven't followed the Judge part carefully,

but hasn't he stopped drinking? If so, may even understand something about the 'syndrome,' including tendency to lie to cover up.

2. I figured more people would step up and speak out

but I didn’t expect this one.

Interesting.

3. Alcohol junkies like to hang out together. n/t

4. Heileman a bartender in Georgetown!

When was this?

Georgetown can be a tough town on the bar circuit. I was warned about that when visiting, by an old friend who played music in a very popular Georgetown bar. He wouldn't even let me wait for a cab on the main drag there. And I recall that there were young men hitting on older women all the time and thought that was odd. Now I wonder what was up with that.

5. Heilman said he had acquaintance with Judge in 1987/1988 when he tended bar in DC.

6. I really do not understand Republicans who want to fall on their sword for this guy.

McConnell didn't even want him as a nominee in the beginning, obviously because he knew he had a questionable past and could be a difficult confirmation. Why not cut bait and nominate someone that isn't horrible?

7. Is it due to timing?

8. My first thought was what bar did Heilemann work at in Georgetown.

Friends hung out there lots, and I've known the area for years.

Since the beginning of this issue I've been saying Mark G. Judge must be called to testify, absolutely.

9. Heard John say that last night.

Those Georgetown bars must be pretty bad. They warn women to stay away from them.

10. The bartender guy sez Judge was as bad as Kavanaugh?

Fascinating.
