[No one, including Donald Trump, needs to attack Ms. Ford. She believes what she believes. This is not he said-she said. This is a case of an alleged teenage encounter, partially recalled 30 years later without corroboration, and brought forward to ruin Mr. Kavanaugh’s reputation for partisan purposes. … Letting an accusation that is this old, this unsubstantiated and this procedurally irregular defeat Mr. Kavanaugh would also mean weaponizing every sexual assault allegation no matter the evidence. It will tarnish the #MeToo cause with the smear of partisanship, and it will unleash even greater polarizing furies. 17sep18 WSJ]

Michael Moore has come out forcefully that there should be no vote on Kavanaugh until there’s been an FBI investigation.
And no FBI investigation into the Kavanaugh allegations until the Mueller investigation is over.
It’s almost as if… it’s just Moore’s recipe for maximum delay.

But if she doesn’t want to speak, if she doesn’t want to testify, you have to wonder what the Republicans really are supposed to do except demand a vote. This is something that happened in high school. This is going to need her voice. There is no other way around it. No one can do it for her,” she continued.

Crabbman tried to change the STEM thread to a bitch about Garland thread… here’s my attempt to put it in the sandbox with the other litter encrusted kitty krunchies.
Yes, the Kavanaugh circus is about the left’s anger that ANY justice that rejects the social justice warrior Living Constitution fans on the Progressive Left. The SCOTUS has been where the Progressives (in name only) have won most of their battles and the prospect of the SCOTUS to actually pay attention to the words in the Constitution and their meaning to average people for decades to come.
No, the Senate has no requirement to do anything about any SCOTUS nominee. Just that a nominee to the court cannot take a seat without the advise and consent of the Senate. That was true during the time of his Accidency, John Tyler; it was true during Obama’s reign and its true with Trump.
I tried to tell the right wing fanatics here at RR that McConnell was doing a great job with a lousy hand dealt… a bare majority in the Senate and a hostile President does not make it easy, especially with a fanatic press a’gin him.

In the “we need a hard body count before it’s true” dept., an ESTIMATED 5,500 pigs and 3.4 million chickens and turkeys have died as a result of hurricane Florence. Most of them are presumed to have drowned while trapped in enclosures on large factory farms. It apparently is too expensive and too massive of an undertaking to move that large a number of animals to safety. Then there is the issue of the 36 giant hog poop lagoons that are overflowing or currently filling with storm water and another 36 that are expected to overflow in the next few days. The resulting algae blooms from all of the nitrogen in the receding waters will pretty much snuff most of the marine life causing millions of dead fish to wash ashore. Coastal property values just went into the toilet, so to speak.

Since most of them have already spent millions, spending one more dollar before the election will trigger the disclosures. The SCOTUS refused to hear the case upholding a lower court decision.

It’s also ironic that by the fat blob’s own reasoning, Kavanaugh, if he done the dirty deed, will have done it again and again…according to criminality. Since there is has not been one iota of evidence that Kavanaugh has ever engaged in a such a pattern of that kind of behavior, then that means he is didn’t do the dirty deed in the first place.

Quotes from this time in our history
Non Compos Mentis I: “We just can’t go back to [the pre-Roe era]. That’s unconscionable to me. And also — I’m sure that this will unleash another wave of hate in my direction — but as a deeply religious person, it’s also unchristian to me.” —Chelsea Clinton
Non Compos Mentis II: “We need to judge Brett Kavanaugh not just by what he may or may not have done but how he treats a woman’s pain.” —Wonkette founder Ana Marie Cox (“The real question of the Duke lacrosse case, by this standard, wasn’t whether a stripper was actually raped — the question is whether the members of the Duke lacrosse team were sensitive to her feelings while she was falsely accusing them of rape.” —Ben Shapiro)
What due process? “Enough with the ‘he said, she said’ storyline. If this is he said, she said, then let’s believe the ‘she’ in these scenarios. She has nothing to gain, and everything to lose. For 250 years we have believed the ‘he’ in these scenarios. Enough is enough.” —ABC News’s Matthew Dowd
Guilty until proven innocent: “For a woman to come forward in the glaring lights of focus, nationally, you’ve got to start off with the presumption that at least the essence of what she’s talking about is real, whether or not she forgets facts, whether or not it’s been made worse or better over time.” —Joe Biden
Hypocrite: “Supreme Court justices should not be an extension of the Republican Party.” —Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), who wants the Supreme Court to be an extension of the Democrat (read: “Living Constitution”) Party
Braying Jackass I: “[Trump] really is the rare combination of an eight-year-old boy — he’s got the maturity of an eight-year-old boy with the insecurity of a teenage girl.” —John Kerry (Ironically, Kerry’s comrades weren’t amused … because sexism!)
Braying Jackass II: “Barack and I agreed we would be quiet for the first year to let the new administration get up and running. God forgive me.” —Joe Biden
And last… “Hello, FBI? We need you to investigate a sexual assault allegation? Oh, that’s a police matter? Still. When was it? Roughly 36 years ago? The actual date? No idea. The location? Not sure. What do we know? There were either 2 or 4 people in the room. Hello, hello? Did you hang up?” —John Hawkins

Brother Todd, no need to say a word about Dr. Ford. The orginal release from her Soros funded lawyers is that her client “believes” something happened. The lawyer believes that Dr. Ford believes something happened. Heck, let’s give the psychology professor (irony alert) the benefit of the doubt and say she believes something happened.
No need to trash her as that is the trap being laid before us by those that have lost their ever lovin’ minds. This is so much bigger than Dr. Ford and here is too much to comment on concerning the process.
Senator Jeff Flake of Arizona did not even try to run for re-election, something that he really wanted to do. He had presidential aspirations. He loved being Senator, but when his pre-primary numbers showed him at 11-13%, he became a very bitter Trump hater with a huge case of TDS. Having the people of Arizona reject him has enraged the poor soul. There is nothing more that Flake would rather do than drive a big knife right through Trump. Yet, Flake has called for the hearings to continue as scheduled and tough titty if Dr. Ford refuses to testify.
Bob Crocker, another Trump hater that is a lame duck bitter Senator since the Deplorable Dregs primaried him has also come out and said no to delaying the vote.
This is because all realize that if at one minute to midnight a wild salacious pre-planned accusation can be dropped after all testimony is heard and stop the whole process dead in its tracks with 100% uncollaborated charges without a chance to question the witness. We are lectured that we must believe the witness or else we are old white male chauvinist pig wife beaters…..well, if that has become the standard of the US Senate, then we truly don’t live in America anymore. That is the fight. This is a hill worth defending. This precedent cannot be allowed to happen without due process for both the accused and the accuser. No ifs, ands, or butts about it.
It’s not about Dr. Ford, never was. It’s about a party out of power whose only issue in life is sucking the brains out of the unborn. And, of course, getting that power back to exact revenge on all who did not toe the line when they were out of power.
It’s also all about stall, delay, stall, and delay. They are hoping to retake the Senate and want to delay any Trump nominee til after the mid-terms. If they don’t take back the Senate after the mid-terms, they will stall and delay until the 2020 Elections. If they fail to take back the Senate and the White House in 2020, they will delay and stall until…..
There is plenty to hold up to the light without disparaging Dr. Ford. Afterall, she did seek medical attention after the incident she believes that happened…..30 years later and the medical attention was her therapist. She did tell people after the dirty drunken teen orgy…not her Mom or Dad, not any classmates, not and friends or neighbors….but 30 years later she did tell her shrink, without mentioning names. See, no need to trash her. That’s not who we are. It’s who they are…. 🙂

The current debate over alleged sexual harassment from Kavanaugh’s high school days has nothing to do with delivering justice for the accuser.
