I have no doubt he will be confirmed but when he is seated is another matter, anytime after OCT 1st and the left wins as he wont be seated in time for the upcoming session.  There are alot of things coming down the pike and to have another Constitutionalist on the court who will uphold the rule of law is desperately needed.

He may not be confirmed by 10/1, but that does n0t take him out of the entire session. He would miss only the cases where he does not hear oral arguments.

Thanks, I was hearing the whole session which made no sense. Be hard to have the committee vote and the full senate vote by the 1st, it could be done if the republicans stand up.

The bigger question, as I've been pointing out, is why are the RINO entertaining lunacy?
They should have said "Too Damn Bad" you had your chance and blew it, but they didn't, which raises the question, are they helping the left?

There is a HUGE problem that just arose!
(Not yet being discussed but one that I foresee as a problem)

According to the law in Maryland, there is no statue of limitations on sexual assaults!

The problem?

What if this woman were to file charges with the police in Maryland ... would the senate actually hold a vote to confirm a SC Judge who is under a 'now active' investigation?


By her description it is not technically "Sexual assault" which requires penetration, what she describes 2nd degree assault under Md law. A misdemeanor.

More Lies!


The woman at the center of the story, Deborah Ramirez, who is fifty-three, attended Yale with Kavanaugh, where she studied sociology and psychology. Later, she spent years working for an organization that supports victims of domestic violence. The New Yorker contacted Ramirez after learning of her possible involvement in an incident involving Kavanaugh.
The allegation was conveyed to Democratic senators by a civil-rights lawyer. For Ramirez, the sudden attention has been unwelcome, and prompted difficult choices. She was at first hesitant to speak publicly, partly because her memories contained gaps because she had been drinking at the time of the alleged incident. In her initial conversations with The New Yorker, she was reluctant to characterize Kavanaugh's role in the alleged incident with certainty.

After six days of carefully assessing her memories and consulting with her attorney, Ramirez said that she felt confident enough of her recollections to say that she remembers Kavanaugh had exposed himself at a drunken dormitory party, thrust his penis in her face, and caused her to touch it without her consent as she pushed him away. Ramirez is now calling for the F.B.I. to investigate Kavanaugh's role in the incident. "I would think an F.B.I. investigation would be warranted," she said.

In a statement, Kavanaugh wrote, "This alleged event from 35 years ago did not happen. The people who knew me then know that this did not happen, and have said so. This is a smear, plain and simple. I look forward to testifying on Thursday about the truth, and defending my good name--and the reputation for character and integrity I have spent a lifetime building--against these last-minute allegations."

It's about a 61 second clip of the entire video where Carlson discounts your statement.
(That is why I said to start at 1:29)

Fine.
Don't bother.
What exactly is your point ?

Carlson is obviously spoofing any asshole that sneaks in with bullshit claims at the 25th hour.

WTF is your point ?  It's as though you're giving these lying shitheads some sort by of legitimacy.

Please by all means tell me I'm wrong.  Elsewise you'll be no more like intelligent that a randomized lying accuser with no facts to offer.

This is all a part of the whole.

1) Democrat-dominated educational systems have turned out the most ignorant, the most emotionally-driven population the USA has ever suffered.
2) This GREAT ISSUE fits the democrat view of ugly, aggressive, white men so perfectly it is guaranteed to succeed.
3) In the progressive congregation the Liberal Church has an inexhaustible supply of bewildered, lonely, attention-seeking females and this SEX thing simply cannot be run out as the democrats run out the clock as they hope to take the congress in Nov.

Spot on!
It's true, the left has destroyed an entire generation. They taught them that logic and commonsense were secondary to how one "Feels" about any given situation.
And sadly, they were also taught "Privilege", white privilege in particular, is the new evil, that all sins originate from "Old White Men", therefore the Constitution is racist and sexist and must be done away with.
Yeah, and we've been hearing a growing chorus to rewrite our unfair Founding Documents, in favor of socialism, or as most off us recognize their true goal of communism.

Not if the judge is going to clear his name 100%.  This BS has to stop some place or the Dem's will keep on using it.

Cryptic Bert

Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's legal team has sent a letter (which can be seen below via NBC's Frank Thorp) to the Senate Judiciary Committee amid continuous negotiations ahead of Thursday's scheduled hearing.

In the letter addressed to Sen. Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Ford's legal team cited Sen. Majority Leader's Mitch McConnell's (R-KY) speech on the Senate floor on Monday afternoon as "flatly inconsistent" to Grassley's promise of a "fair and credible process."

"In our view, the hiring of an unnamed 'experienced sex crimes prosecutor' as Mr. Davis described in his email, is contrary to the Majority's repeated emphasis on the need for the Senate and this Committee's members to fulfill their constitutional obligations," attorney Michael Bromwich wrote. "It is also inconsistent with your stated wish to avoid a 'circus,' as well as Dr. Blasey Ford's repeated requests through counsel that senators conduct the questioning. This is not a criminal trial for which the involvement of an experienced sex crimes prosecutor would be appropriate."

Ford's team requested the identity of the sex crimes prosecutors the Committee would invite to the hearing along with their resume.

The letter also blasts the the White House's refusal to order an FBI investigation into Ford's allegation.

"The hearing plan that Mr. Davis described does not appear designed to provide Dr. Blasey Ford with fair and respectful treatment," Bromwich said.

So, Ford accuses Kavanaugh of a sex crime and  yet thinks being interview by an expert on sex crimes is unfair.
