    Another rehash Lee? The usual suspects must be very frustrated. Interesting how you constantly harp on Trump's known past and ignore the dozens and dozens of other proven allegations regarding other members of congress both past and present.

    I think it is pretty well acknowledged Repubs have a gender gap problem. The treatment of Ford is doing nothing to help them and is likely hurting them.

    The treatment of Ford is the American law process at work. We don't blindly believe someone because of their breasts and their uterus. I'm sorry if that stuns them, but this isn't a college campus(and that's actually very sad to say about our college campuses, but that's another reform topic.)

    In the eyes of liberals and Democrats, sure.
    Rational, thinking people, however, understand this for what it is - a desperate ploy to derail a confirmation.

    It needs to be reopened due to these currents allegations and everyone knows it. The FBI was not privy to this previously...common sense here.

    Why would the FBI investigate allegations of a state crime that is completely unrelated to national security?

    It's hilarious that you keep repeating that meme. You really need something not so patently absurd as an excuse. The minions keep saying the FBI has already conducted a vetting of Brett..........and then go on to say they can't do a more thorough vetting of Brett under new circumstances. It's a laugh riot.

    Yeah,if ever there was a instance for donnie to keep his mouth shut, I can predict what is going to happen-in the near future here come all the women that donnie has sexually assaulted over the years---does "mad as a wet hen" come to mind? When I heard his statement on the news this morning, as a woman, I was madder than a wet hen so,I can just imagine how the women that were assaulted by him feel,Oh, Boy---what a piece of Sh## this guy is----

    Maybe you could explain, how would they investigate it? And why would the fbi be the ones to do so?

    Obviously there is no physical evidence. As a practical matter the only thing to do is to interview anyone they can find who attended the party as well as classmates who went to the schools the two principles went to in an attempt to get as much corroborating evidence as may be available. Ultimately this will come down to which story seems the most credible. At least that's the case for the public. It appears based on statements at least some of the Repubs on the committee have already made up their minds regardless of what an investigation could turn up.

    During an investigation, the FBI would consider any information which might have an adverse effect on the ability of the person to perform his duties.. However, that does not mean that they will hear or see everything which happened during that person's lifetime. In short, they would have to know about such an event before they could investigate it and then it borders on the impossibility to investigate a high school drinking party with no information on when or where such a party took place. Any recollections of that party are going to be hazy at best. Except of course, Ford's. Her memory might be clear, but there is no way her story can be verified.

    No one knows the date or location of the party. How do you find people who were there?

    Their minds were made up before Kavanaugh was nominated.

    Because, things change, things were missed, things may not have been noticed.

    MOST right wingers say, he has been thru 6, so it is a burden to make him go thru another.

    It is not so much the burden as it is the time. And regardless of how many times they investigate, it is still near impossible to find anything to prove or disprove her accusations. The democrats want to do nothing more than drag this out so they can kill his nomination with a democratic senate or taint him so he they can kill his nomination with the republican senate. That is why Ford is not wanting to come in on Monday. Senate protocol says they must give seven days notice for a meeting. That puts her testimony out until next Friday and by then they will have another reason to delay.

    I looked at the title and thought it was about Keith Ellison or Weinstein. NM, carry on.

    Again why would the fbi, who has no jurisdiction on this, be the ones to do that? And how are we supposed to interview people who were there when she won’t tell us (because she can’t) WHO all was there, WHERE it happened or even WHEN it happened. So what exactly would there be to investigate other then the accuser and the accused, and the accuser has already refused to testify. Also why would interviewing other students and principals who weren’t there matter?

    And spare us the “some republicans have already made up their minds” outrage when you know damn well every single democrat, you included, judged him guilty before you even knew there was an accusation. Democrats were calling for his nomination to be canceled the moment Feinstein made the announcement and back then it was just an “an anonymous unknown claim that Iv forwarded to the fbi.” That was it. They didn’t even know what the claim was and they were already saying he was unfit for the position. So do not try and play that stupid game.
