The Last-Second Attempt To Bork Neil Gorsuch Was A Complete Dud
Liberal activists' search for dirt on Neil Gorsuch has come up empty. Now, they want to smear him for discussing ethics in an ethics class.

To “Bork” someone is to obstruct through systematic defamation or vilification. The practice slightly pre-dates the obstruction of Robert Bork’s nomination to the Supreme Court in 1987, but he was its earliest and most prominent victim. The campaign against Bork was run by leftist activists and Democratic senators and included publishing his video rental records and scurrilous allegations of reprehensible views, lack of evidence notwithstanding. It worked, to the shame of those involved in the efforts.
