Wall Street Journal: The outside sex crimes prosecutor that the Republicans hired yesterday to interrogate Dr. Ford, Rachel Mitchell, advised Republicans yesterday in mid-hearing that to continue questioning Kavanaugh, she was required by her oath in Arizona to inform Kavanaugh of his rights after he lied to her about the July 1, 1982 entry on his calendar. Something about Maryland statutes was the last question she asked, then a break was called. Mitchell never asked another question.

92 votes. For 49/fewer category---moving up but likely not the winning vote unless some GOP Senators get calls from their wives and daughters...
Collins will vote YES---
And face a huge war chest of that funding for someone to run against her....
Murkowski seems more on the fence
Flake flakes like he always does--another Rand Paul

Some of these senators are going to get backlash when they run--if they run
Hatch and Grassley better pack it up
They showed they have a difficult time even reading the material placed in front of them--dodos past their extinction date

Having a purported witness say she did not know and had never met Kavanaugh with or without Ford - that's corroboration but......for Kavanaugh.
Don't you love how he keeps talking about "her truth"? Hey, Booker! There is no such thing as "HER truth"; there is only THE truth. Either Kavanaugh did what she alleged, or he did not. Facts are not subjective. She can believe whatever she wants, but her beliefs are not coated in truth dust, merely because her story serves your interest.

We'll never know now. It's really hard to reconcile her different versions of the story.

Sure, it's possible. It's how many men typically react to women who report sexual abuse. Look at Kavanaugh. He's pretty much saying Ford is lying, even though everyone who watched her testimony has said she is credible.

We are in a different age now than we were 30 years ago. The age of old white men having complete control is coming to an end. And the world will be better for it.

Unfortunate for Kavanaugh, that he lost his cool yesterday and went full partisan, so there is no doubt he would be an activist judge at the highest court.

the dems took SCOTUS nominating process into the toilet with Bork and Thomas, and now this. Sorry, but the dems chickens came home to roost with Garland.


These past two weeks has been the dems breeding even more chickens. And they will cry if these chickens ever come home to roost.

It was my desired intent to castigate both major parties equally with my post by using the word "partisan" and including the later sentence.

I fully agree with your assessment.

I could very well have been more careful as to wording and that is my fault entirely.
My sincere apologies....I read the comment too fast and reacted too quickly -- thanks for setting the record straight.

I appreciate you taking the time to do so.
