    OK, so to mash all the air bubbles out of this thing as we understand it so far, Kavanaugh is now being accused of "sexual misconduct" with a girl when HE WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL!

    Link: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...ination-amid-intrigue-over-secret-letter.html

    Evidently they found some woman from the ranks of "Me, too" who's willing to 'come forward' and blast Cavanaugh with charges of mischief with her when HE WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL.

    Typical Democrat delaying tactic to avoid there being a balance achieved on the Supreme Court. They figure that if they can win back the majority status in the House of Representatives, they can destroy the nomination of Cavanaugh altogether.

    Funny. We were all FORBIDDEN to be able to see President "Messiah's" college transcripts, but it's perfectly OK for an ANONYMOUS woman to snipe at Cavanaugh about 'misconduct' when he was in high school.

    https://www.nationalreview.com/corn...ianne-feinstein-statement-strange-disturbing/ I continue to believe Ms. Feinstein, Mr. Booker and Ms. Harris will not be President. Because being President is a serious job. And it means sometimes doing things that people don't like.

    Paraphrasing Barack Obama :)

    Only a Democrat could sink low enough to dredge up some bunch of childish crap from HIGH SCHOOL!

    I would agree it is a bit much. On the other hand, please show me where in the US Constitution a college transcript is a requirement to become President.

    I personally hate this ****. There is enough on the table questionable about this guy without having to dredge this garbage up. There has to be a statute of limitations on allegations like this coming up this far after the occurrence...

    Wasn't Kavanaugh confirmed as a District Judge in front of Congress way back when? Where were these claims then??

    Hate this crap... Same thing has happened to others in the past year of the #MeToo movement.... I won't name names, but some of you know who I'm talking about...

    I want to believe all the women, but ya gotta come forward a lot sooner.... sorry...

    Don't prolong this. Vote on him now because the next thing will be that he murdered someone. This is so ridiculous. Republicans vote and be done...

    You're right. Just RAM the damn thing down their hyperliberal throats! They sure as hell wouldn't hesitate to ram it down OURS....

    This whole idiotic 'political civil war' has assumed the proportions of unbelievably destructive insanity! An anonymous letter? From some woman who was a girl in high school with Brett Cavanaugh 'back in the day' when they were both teenagers?! This "Me, too" crap has gotten completely out of control....

    Ha! If I had to be raked over the coals for a lot of the crap I did when I was in high school, I'd be burnt to a CRISP! :party:

    Just an outrage and that Feinstein would go public with an anonymous person from HIGH SCHOOL makes a claim she can't even tell us what it is, refuses to pursue it, just wants to do a hit and run on the mans reputation but that she has turned it over to "investigators" is OUTRAGEOUS. This is a public lynching on unsubstantiated unprovable charges for which there can be no defense other than a denial. She should be thoroughly criticized.

    Yes McConnell should announce tomorrow there will be an immediate floor vote in order to stop further spurious character assassinations on this honorable man by the Democrats.

    Attempt to derail: failed. :)

    Just another low below from Democrats that makes them look even worse than the day before. I didn't think it was possible.

    BTW, why isn't Feinstein under investigation for the Chinese spy? What is she an illegal that gets a pass for committing crime?

    And let's not forget Feinstein lied in the hearings.

    So, we're supposed to take her seriously?

    I gather from reports she has refused to divulge the information because the person wants total anonymity, or something like that.

    So what's better, a hint so speculation can run rampant across the massive liberal media partnership, or revelation, so the issue can be dealt with head on?

    If I were a member of the New Democratic Party, the hint avenue would be much more effective on many levels.

    I don't know that I have ever seen anything this low since they tried with Anita Hill to intimidate Clarence Thomas with phony accusation and he said NO, take it to the floor I will not withdraw. Hill never thought she would have to testify it would remain secret.

    She want anonymity, she doesn't what it disclosed what happened, and she doesn't want to pursue it. She just wants to do a drive by shooting.

    No, there isn't, that's why Feinstein is doing this. Plus, he wiped the floor with her misunderstanding of "common use' when it comes to semi-automatic firearms on national television. This is her way of lashing back at him for having the nerve to be correct on a constitutional issue and allowing her to embarrass herself on national television.

    He had yet to make Feinstein look foolish on national television.

    On this I will agree.

    Well, that's what we're being told. Consider the source....

    And the drive by is exactly right. Better to leak some hints. Far more effective. Far more juicy for their MSM partners.

    I'm beginning to wonder if these leaders in the New Democratic Party have some kind of profit sharing deal with their MSM partners.

    Do you suppose the reason this request went to federal law enforcement is because there may be criminal conduct alleged? I can't imagine a lot of the criminal code is conceivably impacted by college transcripts.

    Until I hear more, I am inclined to believe that the nature of the accusations left Feinstein feeling she had no choice but to send that letter. I also think that absent any more detail on the nature of this accusation, the Senate ought not forestall this vote, waiting for a response by law enforcement.

    FBI: Why No, We're Not Going to Be Investigating an Anonymous, Third-Hand, Completely Evidence-Free Allegation of a Local Alleged Crime Allegedly Committed 40 Years Ago, Well Outside Any Statute of Limitations

    New -- FBI does not now plan to launch a criminal investigation of the Kavanaugh matter; instead the bureau passed the material to the White House as an update to Kavanaugh's background check, via @mattzaphttps://www.washingtonpost.com/powerpost/feinstein-says-she-referred-letter-concerning-kavanaugh-to-federal-investigators/2018/09/13/d99cfb1c-b775-11e8-a7b5-adaaa5b2a57f_story.html?utm_term=.3eb7f5780be9 …

    Feinstein says she referred letter concerning Kavanaugh to federal investigators
    The top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee said the letter was from a person who “strongly requested confidentiality.”

    washingtonpost.com


    Feinstein reportedly had this Mystery Accusation in her large back pocket since July.

    What a shock, she drops it as the hearings are coming to a close and there's not enough time to "investigate this matter fully" before the elections.

    I happen to believe both parties are destroying this country. the republicans have been all about destroying democracy forever by hacking and controlling the vote and the dems do it with outrage.
