True, it is the objective of the Democratic party. It is also objectively the right thing to do.

Sometimes you have to do what's right for the country, not for your party. Or at least you should, if you are a senator.

And if you are a nominee for the supreme court, you are supposed to be non-partisan. This one obviously isn't.

Zero evidence of any wrongdoing by Kavanaugh, at any time in his life, was the result of this hearing of testimony today.

The whole charade by the Dems simply demonstrated that Trump has chosen a nearly perfect candidate for the job.

Duh, because it's against the law to knowingly falsely charge someone with a crime for political gain.

Thank you for admitting you don't believe any of the accusations either, and that it's simply more petulant sore-losers obstructing our President and wasting tens of millions of taxpayer dollars doing it.

That was what I was trying to say, but I was too inarticulate. Thank you for helping me out.

So seeing the first accuser be completely calm and and collected and respectful to the senate did nothing while the person she was accusing of these things be completely belligerent, condescending and outright disrespectful did nothing to change your opinion on the issue? Or the fact two others accusing him have high powered and very respected lawyers, who wouldn't' take the case unless they were fully believed the issues were credible enough to take to the trial, hasn't changed your mind then nothing will. This stick you put on for the OT forums where the right is always correct and the left is always wrong has sucked me in way to many times.

I saw a rehearsed accuser field a few softball questions and provide no evidence to back up her ever-changing accusation.

I saw an honest man fight back very convincingly against an insidious attempt to destroy his life and his family's lives.

He'll rightly be confirmed, it's certain after today, but the criminals will continue to serve George Soros as Democrats in Congress.

Drain the swamp.
 
...the FBI seriously needs to look into this and if/when they do I think they'll discover that Kavanaugh's behavior as a young man was more than questionable. It does not matter if he finally became a better person and had a good career as a judge, that's not what is question here. It's about what he supposedly did when he was younger...and about him now lying about it.

...there is absolutely no reason for the GOP to ram this confirmation through without exercising due diligence ... the Senate needs to look more deeply into this.


The ABA agrees; From Fox News; https://www.wral.com/american-bar-a...bi-investigates-assault-allegations/17878622/

News reports says Flake will in fact vote to confirm Kavanaugh...that's huge.

Of course he did. This isn't a vote. Kavanaugh is the lowest rated supreme court nominee in history. Republicans just tossed away the womens vote which will likely bite them in the ass.

That's not surprising, gotta toe the party line. It's a little disappointing considering he's not up for re-election so he should vote his conscience. Especially considering he had an impassioned speech about this just the other day. But when you've sold your soul, you've sold your soul.

This is just the vote to get it to the senate, right?

...I thought about that too, Jules...maybe he's biding his time in order to see if anything else comes out before the main confirmation vote. And he may also want to confer with the other 2-3 "swing Senators" and see where their heads are at and I have to believe that if he does that either all of them will vote yes or they will all vote no, because as you alluded to, none of them wants to be the lone NO vote.
 
...I'm sure this has been asked before but why wouldn't both Kavanaugh and the GOP, if for nothing else, for transparency, insist on an FBI investigation?


...the GOP held up Garland's approval for 10 months, so why not wait ONE more week so we can be more certain?...Mrs. Ford, Kavanaugh, as well as the SC deserved nothing less. Kavanaugh himself said he wanted "a fair process"...shouldn't that include a more complete investigation?...can't have it both ways.

I have already answered this question.
 
MFs can't have it both ways.

You can't simultaneously want to drain the swamp when this administration is selecting the people they're appointing.

Y'all didn't say SHIT when he Republicans delayed Obama's pick for an ENTIRE YEAR.

i agree 100%. Unfortunately most in the two parties are not able to be , imo. There are two many polarizing social issue, which is two bad.
e.g.: abortion, & others.
It seems when there is a balance of power threaten, especially supreme court appointment,things ratchet up.

I wouldn't pass through Kav.

I think the Dems really blew it by not acting much sooner and its was bad management. If her attorneys would have not lied told her the truth about a regional meeting much earlier in then process, I don't think we would have witnessed yesterdays circus. I believe her when she said she wanted to prevent early on his selection, her attorneys blew it, imo.

Im for term limits even for SCJ's.
 
All of these lying clowns need to be removed. There's to much corruption on both sides. This vote and these proceedings will change us forever.
 
This is an embarrassment for the GoP I hope every senator that votes yes on Kavanugh goes down in flames in their next election. The Bar association is coming out and saying their should bean investigation, the dis-justice they are doing to victims of sexual assault by simply ignoring and in some of their cases saying Ford is lying, if Ford can't be taken seriously and is being smeared to high heaven for coming out with this by Fox news and other super right wing "news" medias. It makes me wonder if this is going to cause women who already under report sexual harassment and assault, to not come out at all against people with power and wealth.
What the Judicial Committee has done to try and stonewall and be completely ignore Deborah Ramirez is just disgraceful as well.

This literally had nothing to do with it. Republicans had their mind made up in the last year of Obama's term that they were going to steal his nomination.

The Dems process was irrelevant.

I'm tired of this silly notion.

It's ALWAYS been republicans that back those accused of sexual Assault.

I question anyone's morals who can watch Kavanaugh's testimony and believe it.

An FBI Investigation will take months. Then the senators will want to interview everyone under a rock.

All for nothing. There is nothing to investigate. Its just a delay tactic until the Dems can win back the house so they can better force a pic that is less conservative.

No one has come forth to verify or even come close to corroborate Ford's claims. He has impeccable references, the only ones who claim he is like this are either fucking crazy or scatterbrained and they do so without anyone backing them up whatsoever.
