    By demanding that the FBI investigate Dr. Ford's and other credible accusers' disturbing allegations against kavy???

    Why are your (pathetic) republican heroes shielding and protecting Mark Judge???

    I didn't say you could. I said look at the difference.

    I wouldn't know. I was 9 and 13 at those times

    I didn't see much of a circus for Gorsuch? Maybe it's not as much the Dems is that Kavanaugh wasn't a very good choice. I mean, it's not like he was one of the choices recommended by the Republicans.

    They were only interested in using this as a delay. If they were truly more interested in an investigation, why hang on to it for so long without mention?

    Credible is such a subjective word in this case

    What "moral hegemony"?

    Lefty has no such pretensions towards "morals".

    Do I trust someone who can go from being that emotional to cooly protecting himself? No.

    He said: "I'm all in", "what ever it takes", "what ever the committee decides, I'm here."

    Let me repeat this: We're not Russia, we're not North Korea. It is incumbent on Ford to show that this person WAS there, not just to *say* he was there. The senate majority has decided not to waste resources until and when the accuser actually provides proof.

    The extreme right crackpots would attack her even if she had the Mormon Tabernacle Choir in the room and signing affidavits.

    Most Americans are far more open-minded.

    Waste Resources?? LOL... isn't the FBI part of the department that has the lingering stench?? What do you care how a few FBI Agents spend their days?? At least it won't be investigating Trump... Isn't THAT a good thing??

    Democrats filibustered Gorsuch and the nuclear option was used to get him through. The hearings weren't as much of a circus though. Didn't matter who Trump picked after Kennedy retired, they would have possibly faced the same insanity of a hearing a few weeks back that Kavanaugh had to deal with.

    He wouldn't say how many beers was too much. How do we know he didn't add to his "calendar" recently? Where is his friend Judge?

    For all the help and credibility her witnesses and affidavits lent to her, Ford would have been better served by a choir ... or a tiny violin. :;):

    Can't answer one question without hedging.

    He's full of it.

    The ones it could change are the ones that are on the fence. These are watching the poll numbers and watching public reaction, not actually basing it on testimony.

    Say they do an investigation whats the timeframe for completion? Also what kind of smoking gun to prove guilty or innocence would you reasonably expect to come from the investigation? Mid November would be a convenient time for completion of the investagtion

    Kavanaugh was MUCH better when he was giving his statement.... not good at answering simple questions...
