Good grief! Can you be any more narrow minded? Maybe you could learn to step up and help women get ahead, instead of whining about your situation as a white male. Your buddy, mtl1, as well...
So you can't actually dispute what he said. Only that you are mad about it.
Joe Biden called...he wants to know how that Judiciary Committee rule he thought up is working for you.
Biden argued that a nominee shouldn't be selected during an election year. It never became a rule nor a policy. The Democrats didn't act on it like Mitch McConnell did in 2016.
Biden: “Senate consideration of a nominee under these circumstances is not fair to the president, to the nominee, or to the Senate itself,” he continued. “Where the nation should be treated to a consideration of constitutional philosophy, all it will get in such circumstances is partisan bickering and political posturing from both parties and from both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue.”
Ha! This guy, Kavanaugh, may end up stepping down. Wouldn’t that be special
I assume you mean "withdrawing" from the nomination process. Sure, it would be "special".
IF the Senate can't vote him out of Committee to go to the Senate Floor - it would indicate that they believe Dr Ford and believe that Judge Kavanaugh is guilty of "sexual assault" > "attempted rape" > "attempted manslaughter/murder". I would expect this ruling from the Leftists, but Judge Kavanaugh can be confirmed with the Republican vote.
In that case - if he is not Voted by the Republicans to advance to the Senate Floor - THEN the Republicans MUST move to bring orders of Impeachment against Judge Kavanaugh to remove him from the Federal Court. They actually have no choice in that.
Because it's next to impossible to investigate something that happened 35+ years ago, based on mere word of mouth evidence and lack of an exact timeframe or location. She knows this.
What she really wants here is to sow doubt into the minds of voters and members on the senate committee... she wants people to think "Ok, maybe it's best to be safe than sorry and not confirm this guy". She is exploiting the me too movement and weaponizing it for political gain.
It's all wrong.
And yet we do it all the time when it comes to Catholic priests molesting little boys.
And when those MEN come forward 40 years later - we applaud their courage; we wipe our tears for innocence lost.
In another stalling tactic, Ford's lawyer has said she may be willing to testify later next week, if terms can be agreed upon. It's a stalling tactic because they were 18 hours away from having the hearings canceled and the vote scheduled. Now they hope the Senate can be stalled while "terms" are negotiated.
