This. But don't waste your time trying to change any minds.

We can have California pay for a wall around it too. We can convince them it's to keep us out.

So far - she has not been interviewed by the FBI ..... but they sure have been busy interviewing a ton of people. I'm smelling burned toast.

Nailed it. Rep given.

It's a win-win for the Conservatives. If Kav gets confirmed, the SC makeup is in their favor for the next 20-30 years. IF he doesn't, it causes a red wave midterm and they get a new, potentially more conservative in Kav's place, then replace RBD once she is gone.

I happen to know a guy who did all of the above who is running for the United States Senate.
Yep. Every time I hear this guy talk, I think about that movie "Chappaquiddick."

Doesn't anyone ever think of this movie, and the "Lion of the Senate" when they're perusing this Ford/Kavanaugh case?

Well, that’s indicative of the only people still left in the dem party —felons, illegals, angry minorities, socialists, anarchists, elitist arrogant academics, feminazis, air head sex-assaulting celebrities, corrupt hyper biased journalists, and creepy porn lawyers...

If not, then that shoots her credibility right there.
Leland Ingram, whose married name is now Keyser, has said she and Christine Ford were best friends in 1982. They were inseparable and went every where together. Leland says she never met Brett Kavanuagh, not in 1982, not since then either.


Ford is the only person who is saying these things, everyone has sworn under oath the exact opposite, all of Ford's assertions are turning out to be false.

He would certainly fight for the good old boys club. Everyone else step aside.

I agree. And now that he's not running for reelection, any idea of truly "representing his constituents" is out the window. His mask and gloves are off.

And I, at least — and I, myself, heard about that, that she was doing that. And you know, that just strikes me as, you know, what is going on here? When someone is calling around to try to refresh other people, is that what’s going on? What’s going on with that? That doesn’t sound — that doesn’t sound good to me. It doesn’t sound fair. It doesn’t sound proper. It sounds like an orchestrated hit to take me out. That’s what it sounds like."
I hope you don't hurt your back bending into all those positions.

Just saying - if you want to claim Ford is lying about something, use the same standard for the guy with his sights set on a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the land. At best he was "misleading" about his alcohol consumption, while under oath. At worst, he flat out lied.

You know, I think most people would be understanding that some students in high school and college get inebriated. And many of those get to the point where they probably passed out. The Venn Diagram of "Adolescents that party" intersects with "Adolescents that drink to excess." Yet, he wants us to believe that somehow the circle of "Twenty-something Virgins" is somehow part of partying, excess drinking teenagers?

Yeah, not sure who is buying that - other than people that simply want to believe it.

Kavanaugh is afraid that people would try and make the argument that if he did drink to excess and blacked out that it means that he sexually assaulted Ford. Like many have said, she has no concrete evidence. So why couldn't Kavanaugh simply be honest from the beginning? Honest about his drinking, honest about the meaning of boofing and devil's triangle?

It is really sad that Congressional aides went and updated the wikipedia entry to reflect what Devil's Triangle is... yeah - a drinking game. Sure. Keep bending over backwards.

It is sad that this spot on the bench is more about "winning" and less about finding the best person to fill the spot.
