Feinstein's Letter about Kavanaugh.

[Scout26]

Well...........maybe. It could easily be a 4-3 court at any point.

There are 5(+) vulnerable Senate seats, all held by D's in states that went for Trump.  Flipping the Senate would be a reach.

Are you taking into account the turbo charged, nitro fueled, rocket powered fraud machine?

[bedlamite]

And Ford's gofundme is over a half million ...

And Ford's gofundme is over a half million ...

That's only one of them, the one for her "security" is over 200K.

Trump is creating more wealth on the left than Obama ever did. And the beauty is that it's the left's own money.

I would be very interested to see how the money made for these gofundme millionaires, supposedly for their legal fees, etc., is spent. I thought Ford's legal fees were covered by leftist organizations, so what's the half a million bones for?

Those are in Illinois, New York, New Jersey, and California.  Not so much in Indiana, West Virginia, South Dakota, Montana, Wisconsin, and Missouri.  Ohio, Pennsylvania, and the 2nd Minnesota seat could also flip, but they are long shots.

Walking around money?

[Fly320s]

Walking around money?

I'd chip in a few bucks for "going away money."

I wonder how many GoFundMe beneficiaries got a wake-up tax bill from the IRS.  And when?

The Dems are apparently outspending Rs in every possible medium here in Colorado.  You can't pick up a net video around here any more without a listen-to-the-whole-ad-whether-you-like-it-or-not for the Governor's race.

What really ticks me off in this whole mess is limiting the number of otherwise fully-qualified candidates for appointments.  Who the hell else would accept a nomination, 100% straight arrow and all saintly and sinless or not?

At the end of 7 days my prediction is the FBI says we can’t prove Kavanuagh did any of the things he has been accused of or at least the statements they report will stay the same. The MSM and Dens will claim Kavanaugh can’t prove he didn’t do any of these things so he is obviously guilty and we will be back at square one. Due Process and rule of law is out the window for anyone on the so called right of US Politics.

It's not happening to pickup any D votes. It's to appease / give cover for the squishy Rs so they can try to have it both ways - after a week they can say everything has been properly and thoroughly investigated and then vote yes (or that's the hope anyway).

[Ron]

The squishy Republicans are looking for cover to scuttle the nomination.

The squishy Republicans are leftists and don’t want to empower the right, not even the milk toast conserve nothing Republicans.

Yep, the D's have already moved the goalposts; saying that one week is simply not enough time; the investigation is a farce; plus he was angry and upset during his testimony, showing a lack of temperament needed to be a justice...etc.

I hope someone (Lindsey Graham maybe ?!?!) will call them on it.

Is anybody here old enough to remember that sorority party at Stanford in 1954 when Dianne Goldman (Di Fi's maiden name) got drunk and was making out with Hilda Isenberg when Hilda was too sloshed to resist? It caused Hilda to resign from the sorority and to change universities.

Everyone knew about it at the time. It was talked about on the campus for weeks.

I don't know the date or the name of the sorority, or even if Hilda Isenberg was the name of the victim ... but I'm positive it happened.

Make no mistake.  I'm fully on Kavanaugh's side.  But, I fear that the Left is going to ruin him in his chosen profession.  If he is forced to find another occupation, I wonder if he might find he has some aptitude operating, say... a bulldozer?    

[DittoHead]

I'm sure all of you have been thinking the exact same thing that I have through this whole circus:
"But what does James Comey think about it???"

There seems to be a desire on the left to hold on to the chivalrous delusion that women are naturally more morally upright and trustworthy.

Social conservatives absolutely believe this also!

I was wondering how much of it was backroom politics.  Flake realizes he was the deciding vote so he tries to play sides for extra favors.

A coworker just said at lunch that he told his wife they are voting this time around.  He was disgusted by the hearings and what the Democrats are doing.  I wonder how many people in those states are making the same decision.

Three women in my office were horrified by the evil, evil rapist Kavanaugh.  I had to close my office door.

Democratic operatives now agree Ford has no case:

“An allegation standing alone is not necessarily sufficient to conclude that conduct occurred, particularly where the accusing party declines to produce supporting evidence that she herself asserts exists,”

Not this one.

I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.

Well! I guess "She must be believed" didn't last long, did it?

[Angel Eyes]

She must be believed ... if she is accusing a conservative.

If she's accusing a liberal, she's a lying little tramp.

And now Joohn Brennan decided he needs to weigh in. How many more has-beens do we need to hear from? Does Brennan have a gofundme that he needs to advertise for or something?

[just Warren]

Key takeaways this week: Dr. Ford is a national treasure; Sen. Jeff Flake is an admirable man with a conscience, while craven politician Lindsey Graham is not; Kavanaugh’s temperament and blatant partisanship are disqualifying of a Supreme Court seat.

Now who can argue with that?
