Well, there's a new nugget.
Finally waking up to the reality that we are in a Civil war. We may not be shooting guns (At least not Republicans)but laws, media, bureaucracy, as well as civil disturbances are all weapons that the left is using. Anything that can be weaponized they are using to overthrow the United States.
May I ask a silly question? Everyone here is so sure kavanuagh will be confirmed...as of now, with flake a no, how can y’all be sure he has the votes? I see it as it stands now one rat has to vote yes, assuming the other two RINOS vote yes. Am I seeing it correctly did I miss something?
I’m fearing the worst now. When I saw Flake with Coons yesterday making jokes about the elevator, I knew he was a ‘no’, and most likely so it Collins and Murkowski.
And Demonicrats, or at least significant numbers of Demonicrat leaders, need to be tried, convicted, and publicly hanged.
Nobody’s sure if Kavanaugh is going to get confirmed or not. Based on his record and qualification, there is no reason not to confirm him.
It’s just that it will poke the bear one too many times if Kavanaugh ended up losing his confirmation (very rare occasion in history) probably also losing his current job as a federal judge, and/or Trump couldn’t get another judge to the SCOTUS.
It will effectively tell the Americans that elections have no meaning. The cold hard anger in the pit of our stomach now will be hard to contain.
And those politicians know this calculation.
And what’s worse is wimpy Mitch McConnell WILL DO NOTHING in the way of payback if their three RINO “NO” votes on Kavanaugh ends up scuttling his confirmation! If Dingy Harry Reid was GOP Senate Leader these three wouldn’t dare cross him with the shenanigans their pulling now and would be guaranteed YES votes!

He may have some leverage over Collins and Murkowski, but Flake is leaving anyway, so what can Mitch do to him?
“while many women are as motivated as ever to vote Democratic after hearing Christine Blasey Ford’s compelling testimony.”
It wasn’t compelling and she didn’t “remember” (in quotes because something that never happened can’t be remembered) squat except she was sure it was Kavenaugh.
Agree he can’t much to Flake at this point but if he does force Collins and Murkowski to vote YES on Kavanaugh that will give him the 50 votes he needs to ensure Kavanaugh’s confirmation provided Flake and a few endangered Red state DimRats don’t also vote YES knowing he’ll be confirmed anyways, this not needing VP Pence’s tie breaking vote!
Mitch has Guaranteed Kavanaugh would get confirmed - it would be a major blow to his leadership and prestige if Mitch FAILED to get Kavanaugh confirmed providing some REAL damning evidence on Kavanaugh doesn’t come out prior to the vote!!
“I’m dying to see his written opinion when one of these College Kangaroo Court “sex assault” cases makes it to the SCOTUS. He’s gotten an up close and personal look at why Due Process matters.”
Ah, but I’ll bet Dems will demand he recuse himself from any such case at this point.
This is what I’ve always found so infuriating about Bush Republicans. They go to great pains to try to separate them selves from those bigoted troglodyte Tea Partiers and Trumpers, when it should be perfectly obvious that the Left/MSM/Dems will never make any such distinction in any way that matters.

Feinstein petitioning the ABA is off the charts and for that alone she should be censored, but, we need to look closer at Ashoo, who Ford testified was charged with delivering her letter to Feinstein. (a letter than read like someone with a second-language wrote it). People who skim under the radar are usually skimming for a reason.
