Kavanaugh, accuser to testify publicly on Monday
The Hill ^ | 09/17/2018 | Jordain Carney

Posted on 09/17/2018 3:23:05 PM PDT by SpeedyInTexas

Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and the woman accusing him of sexual crimes during a party when the two were teenagers will testify in public on Monday.

The public hearing could be pivotal to Kavanaugh's confirmation, which was on a glide path until Christine Blasey Ford came forward publicly with her accusations on Sunday.

An entire WEEK for the Rats to set up their freak show? Why??

'Pubs need to get their ducks in a row, too. Any Republican says so much as 'boo' to this bimbo and the Rats and media will be running around with their hair on fire screaming about attacking the victim.

And she, in the process, will have made a jack ass of herself.

That will be something she will need therapy over.

I have been asked to not criticize FR’s protected senate candidate but I am at a loss why any but the most die-hard Trump foes would object to Kavanaugh. If Kavanaugh gets turned down do they think the next choice will be better? And if it is then delayed until after midterms, do they think that is good? I listened to almost all of the Kavanaugh hearings and think he is an incredible choice, likely should become Chief Justice when Roberts retires. What am I missing here?

He was barely alert .
Did you see him .

Grassley let the Senate he runs look like an embarrassment.

Nobody but the radical left base and informed people saw the chaos.

The Dem media spun it like it was a great thing ..

The Gop looked weak .

Poor girl, can't remember where or when this happened, how she got there, how she left. Now you want her to provide proof ? What kind of sexist are you ? (/sarcasm)

how does one defend against this?

I, too, believe she won’t show up. There are six full days between now and then. That’s more than enough time for her slut history to completely bombard the airwaves and social media.

I agree .

You are telling the facts .

Where are the Gop senators defending him .

I know if only L Graham which is shocking.

Ted Cruz is no where defending him but likes to push new hearing dates
the Dems want and Never Trumpers ?

Our base should be the concern .

Its called the Stupid party for good reason.

Isn't that the point ? The technique that these politicians use to attack ? All it takes is one woman making a 'claim'. No trials needed, no evidence asked for.

That is exactly right. If they run to a microphone now all they could do is call her a liar or otherwise defame her and look bad doing it. Once she's in front of the committee they can ask her anything they want about her story and it will be appropriate. The left can howl then but it will be hollow because they called for it.

Cruz has the worst politics instincts.

Who can forget when the left organized fights and a riot at the Trump campaign rally in Chicago, forcing it to be canceled. Cruz jumped at the chance to pile on with the Democrats and media and blamed Trump's rhetoric for the atmosphere. Politically tone deaf.

“I want to see her take a lie detector test.”

Generally, sociopaths have no problem passing polygraphs.

"Judge is the weak link in her chain... which is why even DiFi is distancing herself from Blasey-Ford."

is Mark Judge related to Mike Judge of "Office Space" fame?

“If Kavanaugh gets turned down do they think the next choice will be better?”

Quite possibly, yes.

It’s a moot point.

“Whatever happens, it’ll be fun.”

I hope you forgot the sarcasm tag because this isn’t fun. It’s exhausting. It’s ruining a man’s reputation. It’s thwarting and delaying Trump’s mandate. Let me count the ways it won’t be fun.
