To say the confirmation process for Judge, now Justice, Brett Kavanaugh was grueling is an understatement of gigantic proportions. There may be no one involved in any part of the process who is pleased with the way it was conducted. Even if you are pleased with the result, there can be no pleasure in the process.

The process is over now, and as Sen. Lisa Murkowski stated, it is time for healing. To what extent there can be healing is a difficult question.
