Democrats Have Made Sure That Brett Kavanaugh Will Never Get A Fair Hearing
Federalist ^ | September 17,2018 | David Harsanyi

Posted on 09/18/2018 8:31:42 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Without the emergence of new evidence, we will never know if Christine Blasey Ford’s accusation against Brett Kavanaugh is true or not. And there’s nothing Kavanaugh can do or say that will clear his name. If you’re a man, a single uncorroborated account that dates back to 1982 is all your political critics need to accuse you of attempted rape.

It’s worth remembering that these Democrat tactics aren’t only meant to sink this nomination — should they end up forcing Kavanaugh to withdraw — but also to damage the credibility of any Supreme Court featuring Trump-nominated (or, let’s be honest, Republican-nominated) justices. Democrats have been dishonestly challenging the “legitimacy” of the court throughout these hearings. They don’t want to abide by any authority that treats the Constitution seriously, because it’s often the only thing standing in the way of their coercive policies.

Democrats have another character witness waiting in the background. 94 year old Madelyn Beamish claims that when Kavanaugh was 11 years old, he failed to return a library book when she was his school’s librarian.......

“What would the left do if President Trump nominates a staunchly conservative female?”

We’ll see after RBG takes her Dirt Nap! MAGA! :)

P.S. My bet is that it will be just as brutal, if not more so.

If it is televised, the truth will out them.

Video of her crying on the stand could cut either way.

I’m betting money that she won’t show up for the hearing as her attorney didn’t expect Kavanaugh to fight back. Feinstein hinting that there’s more dirt out there on the judge.

Even Ford didn’t go so far as to say he’d raped her so Benson needs to drop that bit.

The book in question had some pencil marks of some kind.

Probably something discriminatory or something.

If all allegations were 100% true, they refer to non-criminal behavior 36 years ago when Kavanaugh was a minor whose judgment was impaired by alcohol, completely inconsistent with his behavior or character before or since. They have no relevance to his qualifications to be a justice. And apparently the only evidence of this non-crime is an evolving, 30-year-old, fragmented, recovered/discovered memory of a Democrat activist politically hostile to his appointment.

All that matters is the votes of the squishy GOP Senators and those of the vulnerable red-state Democrats, who all desperately seek any excuse for a “no” vote. If McConnell were serious about this, he’d threaten to go Medieval on them for misbehaving.

I am holding out hope that McConnell, the master of the Senate, comes through again. Not a fan of the guy, but credit where credit is due, the guy can get it done if he wants to.

Additionally, Trump’s recent remarks did seem to telegraph that this is a done deal. So I hope so.

Now on to Ginsburg!

Grassley suggests hearing could be canceled if accuser doesn’t accept invite
Fox News | September 18 2018 | Alex Pappas
FR Posted by rdl6989

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley on Tuesday raised the possibility that next week’s high-stakes open hearing to examine the sexual assault allegation against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh could be canceled if the accuser doesn’t accept the committee’s invitation.

Grassley, R-Iowa, scheduled a hearing for Monday for Kavanaugh and accuser Christine Blasey Ford to answer questions from senators about the allegation. But Grassley said during a Tuesday radio interview that his office has reached out several times to Ford and her attorneys to discuss her allegation, but has heard nothing back.

I suspect that Monday’s hearing, if indeed there is one, will be a zoo. Code Pink and other groups will be there and I doubt that the nominee will get little chance to talk. This is what things have become.

See, I take issue with this reasoning.

Who cares if he gets a “fair hearing?”

FFS this is ABOUT POWER and nothing else. We have it, they don’t. Use it. There should NEVER be a “fair hearing”. There should be you putting your agenda in place.

Yesterday, a FReeper mentioned Judge Jeanine Pirro. That would be a brilliant choice to replace RBG if only to spite the left.

They keep demanding the FBI investigate this but of she doesn’t remember the date or place what are they supposed to investigate?

In Benson's defense, the word "rape" occurs in his quotes of others. Still, the accusation is attempted rape. In fact, Ford said she thought she might die when she alleged that Kavanaugh covered her mouth, so she implied manslaughter, too.

Since she will not post we know she is lying and I really don’t care. Confirm him and be over with it.
