Ron Wyden says Brett Kavanaugh appears to have lied in 2006 testimony
Washington Examiner ^ | Sept. 6, 2018

Posted on 09/06/2018 1:50:15 PM PDT by deplorableindc

Sen. Ron Wyden said Thursday that it appears Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh lied to Congress in 2006 when he testified about when he learned of a post-9/11 surveillance program.

The Oregon Democrat said in an emailed statement to the Washington Examiner that documents published by the New York Times appear to contradict Kavanaugh’s testimony.

“Yes, the documents made public this week strongly suggest Brett Kavanaugh was involved in discussions about the Bush administration’s illegal warrantless wiretapping programs, and that he misled the American people in his 2006 testimony,” Wyden said.

Who? If this is the kind of clap trap they’ll use against him he might want to start looking for clerks for the upcoming session. Since he’s already on the DC circuit I presume he won’t have to move his family.

It appears that Ron Wyden is still an idiot. Wyden has conflated the dates of the communication. I would call him a liar, but I’m not sure he is bright enough to check on the notes his staff hands him to read.

It means that they need to act outraged so their constituents will send them more money

Exactly. All of the whining about the additional documents is silly. The Democrats will vote against his confirmation anyway and will never vote for him. So the hearings are all for show. Therefor this move directly to the vote and be done with it.

Let these IDIOTS derail Kavanaugh

Midterm turnout should be HUGE for Republicans where we'll get 6-8 more Republican Senators + we'll probably save the House with this HUGE turnout!

Kavanaugh will just have to wait a little longer to be seated

Kavanaugh is going to be seated for Oct.

And the GOP is going to turnout anyway.

Maybe, possibly, could have lied 12 years ago? Ha, demonrats can’t make it to breakfast before lying a dozen times.
