Well, Now Brett Kavanaugh Can Face His Accuser

[AGBF]

We'll see.

It was already proven, 'red. The only thing not, yet, proven is whether Trump knew about the conspiracy taking place between members of his campaign and the Russians. All of our intelligence services have proven, and agreed upon, the fact that the Russians heavily influenced the election in Trump's favor. How much they influenced it-i.e. whether they put him over the edge to winning the election- may (or may not) ever be known.

Like I said, we'll see. Are you as interested in the next Horowitz report?

As interested in what? The toppling of the U.S. government by Russia? No! And neither is the CIA or the NSA or any of our defense agencies. 'red.... Russia is at war with your country, girl! This is not a joke!

...with a little help (or more than a little) from the Russians.

If that is true then the D party should point their fingers at Obama for not investigating into the matter.

Isn’t that the truth!!!!

@Dancing Fire , Is everything in life Obama or Hillary’s fault???

But the fact is in 2014 Obama was POTUS, so if the Ds kept on talking about Russian collusion then it is Obama's fault for not investigating into the matter.

It's also very possible that if the Democrat party continues marching further to the left they may never win another election.

I used to think that but now I'm not so sure. Maybe they need to march ALL the way to the left. That's the vibe I get from younger people (that I'm around all day). I didn't vote for Bernie in the primaries because, among other reasons, I didn't think he had a chance. My daughter kept telling me that Bernie had a better chance at beating Trump than Clinton did, but I didn't believe her. I thought, oh she's a naive young idealistic new voter but now I realize that I'm just an old fogey!

My nephew and his friends thought the same thing @Maria D . They felt Bernie had a much better chance at beating Trump than Hillary.

Interesting developments arise surrounding Ford’s credibility ... letter from Sen. Grassley to Ford’s attorneys highlighting potential perjury by Ford.

Was he throwing crushed ice or cubed ice? b/c cubed ice can put a person in the hospital .

This is the bravest and most factual post in this thread.

"It is impossible at this moment to envisage the Republican Party coming back. Like a brontosaurus with some brain-eating disorder, it might lumber forward in the direction dictated by its past, favoring deregulation of businesses here and standing up to a rising China there, but there will be no higher mental functioning at work. And so it will plod into a future in which it is detested in a general way by women, African Americans, recent immigrants, and the educated young as well as progressives pure and simple. It might stumble into a political tar pit and cease to exist or it might survive as a curious, decaying relic of more savage times and more primitive instincts, lashing out and crushing things but incapable of much else."

The idea that nothing needs to change until it happens to someone close to you, baffles me. Yet this is basically the way many republicans think and feel.

How would you feel if Kav. was your father or brother? just believe the accuser without any witnesses to corroborate her story?

 

[soxfan]

Perhaps you could ask the Central Park jogger suspects DF?

Donald Trump paid $85,000 for a full-page ad calling for the Central Park Five—innocent young boys—to be executed. In 2016, he continued to insist that they were guilty even though they had been exonerated and the real attacker had been found.

The White House hasn't given the FBI a green light to interview Kavanaugh or Ford, just FYI

Ummmm....Lindsay Graham is coming unglued on national TV.

That was his dramatic stage performance in an attempt to replace Sessions and Rosenstein. He should stick to sucking at his day job, whatever that is.

Speaking of... that assclown needs to be recused from anything relating to the Russia probe. He’s accepted nearly $900K from a Russian oil billionaire, and a former banker for a sanctioned Russian bank.

I would want it investigated because even if it was my family, I'd want to know what happened.

 

[Tekate]

Well it does mean that less people voted for him and now we are stuck with him, it means his views and policies appeal to less of the voting public. This means that eventually he will either not be rehired in 2020 or fired before unless a miracle happens. There is only so long the voting public will put up with minority rule, until this happens we can and have been stuck with schmucks like Trump.

LOL. Popular Schmopular. Doesn't mean a thing in a constitutional republic of states.

 

[Tekate]

This could be true, but as the republicans march further and further right they have a bigger chance of losing.

It's also very possible that if the Democrat party continues marching further to the left they may never win another election.

At this point I think we just need to sit back and Let Donald Trump and Lindsey Graham keep talking. The republicans will just do THEMSELVES in.

I could not help but laugh at this Callie, really when in doubt bring out Hillary and Obama.

Isn’t that the truth!!!!

@Dancing Fire , Is everything in life Obama or Hillary’s fault???

 

[redwood66]

I think the dems should continue to call voters stupid. Please do it. I think it's hilarious. Especially every time Maxine Waters, Hank "will Guam tip over Admiral?" Johnson, Blumenthal, Durbin, and other intelligence free individuals get reelected. The same party that has a problem with Kavanaugh drinking beer and throwing ice elected a dope smoking, cocaine snorting dude as president. Please.

The alleged sexual allegations against Kavanaugh are falling apart. And races are tightening because of this circus. Reasonable people are waking up to the dems hand in this.

If this is the case then I am glad that I am older and won't live to see the destruction that will cause. I feel for my children and future grandchildren should younger voters embrace the tenets of socialism and postmodernism. At that point we'll get the government we deserve.

Not necessarily. My state is considered a purple state, North Carolina. However you would never know it looking at the proportion of Republican versus Democratic congresspeople and senators. Once the Republicans got in, while the Democrats were definitely guilty of gerrymandering, the Republicans took it to a whole different level. A selected partisan group rewrote the maps. The map has been ruled unconstitutional but the Republicans are fighting it in court and so they are not going to be re-written in time for the 2018 elections. There is also voter suppression. In the triangle one might have to wait hours to get your license. However if you go into the county, no lines. ETA- it seems the lines are even longer in rural areas! But in thr triangle area some places 8 hours! I'm sorry, but it's simply Unamerican to disenfranchise voters.

People keep reacting to Trump tweets. What we really need to pay attention to: voter ID laws and how they impact minorities and others from voting. Throwing names off voter rolls and who is doing this. Gerrymandering. There should be a rule that a non partisan, independent group draws the districting maps if they need to be redrawn due to population changes. Not whatever party is in power.

Hmm. I think most people have common sense. The young kids I see, my daughter and her classmates are more aware and articulate than when I was at their age. And what kind of world are we leaving them. They want to live in a world that has opportunities for education and progress for everyone, not just the rich, that everyone is entitled to clean air, water and soil. To safety. They want to contribute and are high achievers. However they can also look in the eyes of Politicians who say they have the best interests of their constituents, see what they are actually doing and call BS. And if they get voted out by the younger generation, that's just the law of natural consequences. Personally it can't happen too soon.
