Schumer calls on Kavanaugh to withdraw from Supreme Court confirmation process
Vox ^ | September 26, 2018 | Li Zhou

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer thinks it’s time for Brett Kavanaugh to withdraw from the Supreme Court confirmation process. If he won’t, Schumer called for Republicans to press pause on Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination in the wake of explosive new allegations of sexual misconduct that emerged against him on Wednesday.

“I strongly believe Judge Kavanaugh should withdraw from consideration. If he will not, at the very least, the hearing and vote should be postponed while the FBI investigates all of these allegations,” said Schumer in a statement released on Wednesday. “If our Republican colleagues proceed without an investigation, it would be a travesty for the honor of the Supreme Court and our country.”

It’s a call that all ten Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee have now echoed as well. Sens. Dianne Feinstein, Kamala Harris and Richard Blumenthal are among those who have signed onto a letter urging Trump to withdraw Kavanaugh’s nomination....

Schumer, it is time for you to resign from the Senate. You should also seek medical help because you are one big brain dead individual.

Interesting that Bill Cosby's sentencing over ancient allegations went down the same week as this crap storm - coincidence? I think not.

Some questions for Julie Swetnick, who is accusing Kavanaugh of drugging and gang raping women at “more than 10 parties”:

Why did Julie Swetnick keep going to these parties?

Why didn’t Julie Swetnick warn other girls about attending these parties?

At any of these parties, did Julie Swetnick do anything to stop these sexual assaults?

Did Julie Swetnick ever call the cops to report all these rapes?

If Julie Swetnick knew what was going on at these parties, why did it take her 36 years to come forward?

So Julie Swetnick had direct knowledge of criminal behavior while it was occurring and did nothing? Doesn’t that make her an accessory to the crime?

It’s the seriousness of the charge that matters.

So dems are all on record that they’re voting No.

If it’s proven without a shadow of a doubt that all accusers are paid operatives of the left and that memos are found detailing the questions and answers; and she admits on a video recording that she never has met Kavanaugh, and that tthe whole story is made up....would they still vote NO for his confirmation?

What would the backup excuse be? This is Russia, Part Deux...

At the pace this bizarre story is changing I suspect we’ll hear someone say Judge Kavanaugh committed murder by tomorrow’s hearing. I suspect the hearing will be anti-climatic. How can they top, under oath, what we are already hearing? I almost (almost) suspect we’ll even see some Democrats trying to backtrack a bit as they and their media partners are making a complete mockery of their opposition to Judge Kavanaugh.

For the good of America, civility and sanity, I “call on” schumer to self-exile (for the rest of his worthless life) to the Congo to care for ebola victims.

Why make him withdraw? In the old days, the leading Marxist democrat (Stalin) would just have them disappeared (with or without a show trial).

"starting to look"??

This attempted lynching by those demonstrating a pathological hatred for fair play, decency & reason, certainly does not reflect a very high level of intelligence. Rather a demonstration of how thoroughly the Left in the media & education, have undermined the ability to to understand something as basic as cause & effect.

I am old enough to remember a time when the Democrats--even post LBJ--were still capable of having a sapient leader in the U.S. Senate.

I feel like I have to shower merely looking at or listening to Schumer.

Ya know, I suddenly sat bolt upright in bed last night after suddenly remembering Schumer flashed his wee schumer at me 30 years ago. I can’t remember exactly when or where or if it was even him but the thing I’m definitely sure of is I was drunk. Maybe he should step down from his seat.

See, Schumer, how easy that was. There’s your guilty until proven innocent. The burden of innocence is on you. Harvard Law sure turns out dummies.

Schumer is irrelevant. Vote. If K goes down, nominate someone more conservative.
