Also, where is Christine Blasey Ford right now?

Shouldn't she be in a white Bronco somewhere, slowly driving through ... Nebraska? I mean, she has to be in DC in about 36 hours?

Or maybe its that powerful male syndrome who controls everything like trump controls his animatronic wife melania.

Why doesnt Kav say , I want the American people to hear see and know I am innocent of these accusations and will serve America well.
???

It s all about himmmmmm.

Nuther jerk who WILL NOT be told he CANT HAVE SOMETHING HE WANTS AND IS ENTITLED TOO.

Even tho he is NOT entitled to be a Supreme Court Justice just because he was nominated by anyone.
Even tho he is NOT entitled to sexually assault a woman just because she is drunk..altho our fearless President thinks otherwise and that anyone is surprised at his new attack position on this.
Lighten up, Francis.

Why do some people come up with far fetched dialogues in their fevered minds and work themselves up into believing such nonsense?

'Plowing' Kavanaugh through despite all the allegations and his low disapproval rating is going to haunt the GOP bigly.

I can't wait until the third accuser comes out tomorrow!

Wow. Attorney for Kavanaugh's second accuser has made multiple attempts to contact republican senators and have been given the run around.

What a shocker. What an embarrassment the GOP has become.

Well, I'm no fan of Joe Biden, but I have to admit he is correct and I've seen tons of FBI background checks.

All they do is report what everyone said. They make no determinations about what any of it means.

Deal with it. This guy is getting confirmed -- the hell with 36 year old allegations. It was a high school kid who was drinking for Pete's sake. A HIGH SCHOOL KID.

The reasons you give are exactly WHY it should be investigated further.
Dr Ford reported something happened to her so shouldn't we try our best to find out what it was or should we dismiss it and confirm Kavanaugh? Without a proper investigation it will hang over his head forever...you know did he or didn't he?

When he is confirmed without further investigation whenever the supreme court makes a decision I will always question the judge's decisions if this isn't cleared up.
Who are you kidding lol?

In other words, this doesn't even represent the will of their base. Given that.....why are they pushing it?
Desperation... they think a lifetime Justice appointment is worth a few years as a minority in the Legislative branch.

But they are gambling bigly here because they may well lose the Executive and Legislative branch for years to come AND Kavanaugh can be forced out/impeached. The Dems can also decide to change the # of Justices to 11 and fill the courts with Liberal Justices to dilute the power of the 5 Conservative Justices...

The GOP can be so short sighted!

Good.
Any male who knows he has sexually assaulted a woman better think twice before running for office to represent the American people and take a paycheck from the American people.

You are the guarantor of your own reputation. Don t do it and you don t have to worry about it.

Current culture that the assault of women is reduced to political ploys to sway votes -must change.
Sexual assault is more than just about "power"...it s about men who receive sexual pleasure through causing harm to another person. It s an emptiness of empathy. Who wants someone in power like that ????
A powerful person with out empathy gets ya Kim Jong Un.

All of America should be mortified when these allegations come out at anytime.
Investigate it.
Investigate it.
Be a big freakin boy and investigate it. He wants the big money..this comes with it.
No one is entitled to ignore allegations of a crime.
Are you effing kidding me ?
Whos Country does that???

How much self respect does Kavenaugh have for himSELF to not demand an investigation?

Does he not mind having the American people ,and his family at that, thinking for the rest of his and their life that he is someone who commits assault for sexual pleasure ?

He does not mind that there is a shadow of a doubt that perhaps he is someone who gains pleasure from participating in and organizing the sexual assault of one woman by several men??
He s okay with that ?
He will never represent the American people. He will always be beholden to the powerful men that rammed him into those court robes. They are telling him.."you dont have to ever really give a second thought to matters before you in court..just consider WHO the parties are that are involved and which side you are supposed to be on.

Tell ya what s dead...and it is not attorney client privilege.
