This. For a second, I thought his balls finally dropped but then I remembered it was Graham.

They need to get tossed into the mix on this one. Now is a good time.

Whatever. November: the GOP is history. So enjoy while you can, boys.
Then impeach Kavenaugh and feed he and Mark Judge to Avenotti. Bring back the colliseum.

People are sometimes mistaken.

not to mention that two guys are making the claim that they and NOT kavanaugh did the deed.

oh please, kavanaugh is probably as close to perfect for the supreme court as possible. the one that sounds like a partisan hack is you. the democrats treated kavanaugh like crap through this whole ordeal. in the first hearings as i noted, kavanaugh gave them due deference even though the dems were on full attack mode and trying to smear kavanaugh with every question they asked.


it was feinstein that had the letter from ford that she held until AFTER the hearings were over befoer she released it and then demanded an FBI background investigation, even though kavanaugh has already been through six of them over the years.


sorry but the democrats got the berating they deserved.

Graham is a neoconservative "never Trumper" so I've disliked him for a while...though today might have been his best moment, to me. I appreciate his defense of this man as steadfastly as he did today.

My take as a libertarian observer who sees the SCOTUS as against my ideals most of the time. Both Kavanaugh and Ford did a great job. Basically cancelled each other out.

Problem with Ford is she sounds sincere but has absolutely nothing to back up her claim. On top of it the people she said were there have sworn statements contradicting her. So either they are all lying or she is. I have had people of the years very sincerely lie right to my face. So anything is possible.

And they are in my age range. I can't recall everyone I talked to or went on a date with that long ago. She could be confused.

Regarding Graham. Never seen him so animated. The whole russia thing with him sounds silly. Why would russia want the GOP to control the SCOTUS? What would that do for them?

This is the most despicable episode in the US Senate since the McCarthy hearings in the 1950's. Say what you want about that, but most people don't care what you or the media hacks who pump out the party propaganda for the Democrats.

This was really a bad look for you guys and virtually everyone has been watching.





Did you catch that part in Ford's testimony that her claustrophobic, second front door not only makes the front of the house aesthetically pleasing, but now it is used for the Google elites to come over and hang out.



The Google people who tried to influence an election and isn't it a part of her job description, someone posted, involving the studying of how to develop change in society? Interesting.

That fact revealed is what set off Graham.

But of course that was the Democrat s fault too.

Typical abuser....If you hadn't done "such and such" I wouldnt have to have raged at you.

Or...if that girl hadn't gone to the party she wouldnt have been attacked.....
How did his calendar prove her case? Nearly every day is accounted for. I keep Calendars like that too. Just like my Father did. Call me paranoid, but part of the reasons among others I kept a calendar diary was just in case some **** went down I had a good record of where I was, what I did and who I was with.

I would like to see how demure you would be if you were accused of heinous crimes that you were completely innocent of and your good name and reputation were dragged through the mud.
