I've changed my mind ..... watching what the Leftists tried to do, watching the Democrats AGREE with this Character Assassination has convinced me that they can't be trusted at all ...... with anything.

I prefer Balance, I always have ..... but the Left has declared War on the President, WAR on the American people who voted for that President and they can't be allowed to get away with that.

This confirmation was the worst I've ever seen and media is saying the same thing. The next will be worse than this one ... because the have indicated they plan on Impeachment the second they regain any power. At some point .... we have to accept that the Leftists have lost their minds and move on - dealing with the Reality we have. No Quarter

Cosko was most recently working as an unpaid intern for Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, senior congressional sources told Fox News. In the past, Coscko has worked with other Democratic lawmakers including Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., and former Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer of California. He sure got around - that's a lot of Senators. I seriously doubt he was "unpaid" ... looks like a dirty operative.

Staffer who 'doxed' GOP senators faces nearly 50 years in federal prison |Washington Examiner - 10/5/18

He was charged with five federal offenses: making public restricted personal information, making threats in interstate commerce, unauthorized access of a government computer, identity theft, and witness tampering.

The criminal complaint against him also charges him with second-degree burglary and unlawful entry, which are both criminal offenses in D.C.

According to an affidavit, five U.S. senators’ restricted personal information was posted on Wikipedia.com by Cosko.
If he did all this with Ms. Jackson Lee's blessing how many of those charges still apply?

I know this because I've been interviewed 4 times over the years ...... and investigated many more times than that. Not a single person the FBI has talked to agrees with your statement.

The FBI did an in depth Interview with each of these allegations and then asked for others to talk to -- they didn't find a SINGLE PERSON that corroborated the allegations. PERIOD.
Nor did they try. People were trying to contact the FBI but were not allowed through.

FBI interviews only go to age 18; Bart was 17 when this allegation occurred.

The FBI failed to investigate one of THE most important things to come out of that hearing and that was Kavanaugh's tendency to lie under oath.

I've twice been interviewed by the FBI for two friends that applied for jobs. Do you think I told them dirt I knew on those two friends? Or did I tell them the very best parts of those two people and leave off the . . not so good parts.

That is what most people do.

All of you are expecting way too much from silly 15-17 y/o flakey inebriated teens.

Collins is so wrong about everything, I can't stand to listen to her. Of course, he did it. It just isn't relevant today because they were both so young. Whether or not it's provable is irrelevant because of their age.

His judicial temperament is relevant and disqualifying - about which she, conveniently, has not said ONE WORD.

Collins - another party hack.
These personal anecdotes are interesting, whether or not they're true. I notice you never heard from your longtime friend again. Didn't Ford and Keyser remain lifelong friends.

You believe he did it because you want to believe her.

His 12-years as a judge are a better barometer of his judicial temperament than a few minutes responding to his accusers in the 9/27 inquisition.

what? What do you want the FBI to do, to knock in every house in Maryland and ask if somebody remembers a party in 1982 that Ford and Kavanaugh were together in the same house or party? What a joke. Ford named 4 people in this alleged party and all denied it under penalty of a crime and jail time including her best friend. Her best friend went further. She said she doesn't know the judge and never met him or never been to any party with him, her best friend!!

You want the CIA and NSA on the case also? you want them to search the earth for witnesses that doesn't exist? or you want to find dirt on Kavanaugh that has nothing to do with the allegations? we know the answer to that.

It won't be investigated publicly (she skates IF she was involved in a scam - she does seem very unstable, but she has the knowledge to fake that appearance) - even Ford's Lawyers came out today and said "Blasey-Ford wants this over, not opened again - no impeachment hearings - no nothing" ..... and that is exactly what will happen -- UNLESS the Leftists push the Republicans into it. TeamBlasey-Ford is panicking - they tried, they lost. Personally .... I think she was in on it. I also think that realistically she will get away with it. They have to go after the bigger fish, she is a tool.

It's way too volatile to even investigate Blasey-Ford - although I think they will quietly do so in the context of investigating the others .... Including Monica McClean & Feinstein's office.
This stuff is Serious - I really do think the SJC will want to get to the bottom of it. Not just that Laws might have been broken, but the sheer ugliness of the unsubstantiated allegations and the possible attempt to take down this important Committee.

Interesting that Blasey-Ford's ex DOJ attorney has been in a panic DEMANDING the name of the Agent in charge of the Investigation ... calls, letters to Wray, the DOJ, the FBI .... and nobody is answering.
All this from the Senate Judiciary Committee - Chuck Grassley (bless him) posts all these letters.
I love sunshine.

The Democrats have done their part to use their talking points to fool their sheeple. We will see them continue to parrot the FBI talking point over and over for a long time.

As a matter of practicality, it was amazingly stupid of the Left to make a desperate, sordid attempt to block Kavanaugh when the likely result was and is that there is now a member of SCOTUS who will find a way to settle the score in a totally legal way. No way of knowing how or when, but, unless Justice Kavanaugh is an absolute saint, the payback will be painful for the Left.
