Republicans seem to have the votes to move forward with Brett Kavanaugh(Just Do It)
WaPo ^ | September 19, 2018 | Aaron Blake

Republicans haven’t officially made the decision to press forward with federal judge Brett M. Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination, but they appear likely to have the votes to do so.

Three key GOP senators have fallen in line with the arguments put forward by their colleagues. They said that Christine Blasey Ford has been given a chance to share the story of her accusation against Kavanaugh in a hearing setting, and encouraged her to testify — even without the FBI investigation she says must come first.

After learning of the allegation, Chairman @ChuckGrassley took immediate action to ensure both Dr. Ford and Judge Kavanaugh have the opportunity to be heard, in public or private. Republicans extended a hand in good faith. If we don’t hear from both sides on Monday, let’s vote.

even DiFi has back=pedaled on the Ford ‘recollection refreshed” charge against the nominee of 36 years ago.

“The good news is that the democrat slime job attempt has now made it easier for Flake, Collins, et al, to vote aye.”

Looks like this little charade by the dimoKKKRATS has backfired with the opposite results that they desired. I sure hope that is the case.

I agree. Just do it.

Hold the votes Thursday, tomorrow, as originally planned.

Deep State swamp dwellers from the Democrat Socialists of America already leaked the text of the next letter to me. It’s even more disturbing due to our ages, the seriousness of the charges, and evidencing a pattern of behavior:


September 20 2018
CONFIDENTIAL
Senator Dianne Feinstein

Dear Senator Feinstein;

I am writing with information relevant in evaluating the current nominee to the Supreme Court.

As a constituent, I expect that you will maintain this as confidential until we have further opportunity to speak.

Brett Kavanaugh physically and sexually assaulted me during kindergarten in the early 1970’s. He conducted these acts with the assistance of REDACTED.

Both were one to two years older than me and students at a local private school.

The assault occurred in a suburban Maryland area playground at a gathering that included me and four others and our moms.

Kavanaugh physically pushed me on the swing as I was headed forward and then back again. He and his friend pushed me and squealed with laughter, precluding any successful attempt to yell for help.

Kavanaugh was touching me on the bottom with each push and even on bare skin that became exposed from his vigorous pushes while laughing with REDACTED, who periodically pushed alongside Kavanaugh. They both laughed as Kavanaugh tried to dislodge me in their sugar-high state. With Kavanaugh’s hand on my lower backside I feared he may inadvertently tickle me.

From across the playground a REDACTED also on a sugar high said mixed words to Kavanaugh ranging from “go for it” to “stop.”

At one point when REDACTED sat on the swing with me the weight on me was substantial. We toppled, and the two boys scrapped with each other. That allowed me to get away, I was able to take this opportune moment to get up and run across to a playground bathroom. I locked the bathroom door behind me. Both loudly ran around at which point other persons at the playground were talking with them. I exited the bathroom, ran outside of the play area and went home.

I have not knowingly seen Kavanaugh since the assault. I did see REDACTED once at the REDACTED where he was extremely uncomfortable seeing me.

I have received medical treatment regarding the assault - almost immediately afterward with a delay of only 46 years. On September 17, I notified my local government representative to ask them how to proceed with sharing this information. It is upsetting to discuss sexual assault and its repercussions, yet I felt guilty and compelled as a citizen about the idea of not saying anything. My motive is pure patriotism and civic duty, and this letter has nothing to do with the promised GoFundMe donations or with the generous check and the scrip delivered by an elderly former Nazi who is loved by my fellow democrats.

I am available to speak further should you wish to discuss. I am currently REDACTED and will be in REDACTED.

In confidence, REDACTED.

“JUST DO IT..KAVANAUGH IS INNOCENT.”

I called all the Republicans on the Senate Judicial Committee at 5 pm. and told them all to hold the line and move on with the vote- and that NO they do not have to believe the allegations because the Democrats have a pattern of doing such things. I told them that if they let the Dems get away with it this time, they will always do this. At least a couple of the staffers told me that the senator agreed, CALL THEM!`

She's not going to be there Monday is my prediction. That way, no more doubt is heaped upon her and the Dems can go BERSERK because an FBI investigation would have revealed the truth and vindicated her. If nothing else major happens, that is probably their best play.

Pulling the threads on Blasely:

1. Lawyer is Soros tool; the story is likely inspired or orchestrated by him.

2. Social media & entire HS yearbook data scrubbed so her veracity, reputation, motives, and whereabouts remain cryptic.

3. Rumor that she pulled the same stunt with DiFi when Gorsuch was proposed.

4. Story discrepancies recorded by the therapist- 4 guys groping became 1.
5. Refusal to cooperate with authorities for 35 yrs and now.

6. Others she has named have denied knowledge of the event.

The bottom line. Many guys have likely groped her during her teens and early twenties and one particular incident troubles her. She decided to make BK the target because she hates men that are not dem-prog-libs.

It is Trump Derangement Syndrome by proxy onto Kavanaugh with sexual disorder diagnosis of unresponsive female (cold fish).

IOW, she is using Kav. as an excuse for her frigidity because she hates Trump. She probably needs some hormone injections or a new husband or something organic to cure her unhappiness.

General question. But first, this excerpt:Now the question: Why do folks like the WaPo show a Twitter remark twice? Shouldn't the remark do the job? Why must the remark be repeated? Just wondering.

“”Why do folks like the WaPo show a Twitter remark twice? Shouldn’t the remark do the job? Why must the remark be repeated? Just wondering.””

I don’t indulge in any twitter or whatever but I’ve always wondered WHY we have to see two versions of the same thing every time someone posts a twitter message...Must be missing something but can’t believe it would have any bearing on the content of ONE message...said twice!

Good imagination. I have questions that haven’t been asked or answered.

How did this person get to the party?
How did this person get away from the party?
She ran out the door and then what?
How far away from her own home was she?
If she was so afraid she was going to die, did that fear dissipate as soon as she was out of the house?
If not, did she run breathlessly into her own home crying that she just escaped a possible rape?
Did her parents suggest calling the police?
Were her parents home?
Were siblings home?
Did her dad (if he was normal) go to the party house and knock a few heads together?

Inquiring minds want to know - or just plain suspicious minds demand to know!

“...because in 2017 Blasely imagined being groped by Gorsuch....”

How would she like to be REALLY groped?

Most nymphomaniacs enjoy being groped and it’s a good chance she is one.

Someone would have to be seriously drunk to hit on that...now or ever. That’s probably why she is so bitter.Looks a little like another whack job... Hillary.

Call the offices of both McConnell and Grassley and demand that they confirm Kavanaugh now. They need to hear from us.

She looks the years older than Brett Kavanaugh.
