Feinstein Statement on Kavanaugh
Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) ^ | Sep 16 2018 | Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.)

Posted on 09/16/2018 5:29:55 PM PDT by mdittmar

Washington—Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) released the following statement:

“It has always been Mrs. Ford’s decision whether to come forward publicly. For any woman, sharing an experience involving sexual assault—particularly when it involves a politically connected man with influence, authority and power—is extraordinarily difficult.

“From the outset, I have believed these allegations were extremely serious and bear heavily on Judge Kavanaugh’s character. However, as we have seen over the past few days, they also come at a price for the victim. I hope the attacks and shaming of her will stop and this will be treated with the seriousness it deserves.

“I support Mrs. Ford’s decision to share her story, and now that she has, it is in the hands of the FBI to conduct an investigation. This should happen before the Senate moves forward on this nominee.”

Calling it “sexual assault” is a bit of a stretch even if it happened.

The Anita Hill treatment.

And Feinstein doesn’t want to talk about her Chinese spy connection.

"“From the outset, I have believed these allegations were extremely serious and bear heavily on Judge Kavanaugh’s character."

That's why you sat on them for two full months. Why should we believe anyone who employed a Chinese spy for 20 years, and then claims she knew nothing about it?

Noted. I support Feinstein being tried for knowingly aiding and abetting a Chinese spy for 20 years.

If these allegations are so serious and deserving of investigation and all that, then why the hell did Diane Feinstein sit on this story for over two months?

Is sexual harrassment/assault a serious matter or not? Or is it something you pull out for political purposes when it’s convenient for liberals to accuse some Republican of misconduct?

A: I wonder how much they paid her.

B: I wonder if they ever even actually met each other.

Yeah, so incredibly serious that she waited until the last day to refer it. After her staff played up the 'ace in the hole' to other Democrats.

A drunken teen party of 6-8 people. Maybe the FBI might be interested if one of them was a Russian?

"the victim"

The attempted "victim" being Brett Kavanaugh, since she's probably lying.

Does anybody know what happens to someone if they send a false claim to the FBI?

If it were so serious, why is it now coming out 35 years later?

The choreography of the hit job by feinstein and crew seems diabolically well rehearsed.

It comes to this: if the linguini-spined Republicans let a good man like Judge Kavenaugh get “Borked” by this evil woman and her cabal of lying Demonrats, I WILL STAY HOME IN NOVEMBER. The Federal government barely functions as it is, with the Deep State weighing it down. If Republicans are also complicit, there is no more hope for this Federal government.

DiFi’s hearing the footsteps of the opponent who's not *afraid* to admit that he's a Maoist.
