Around an hour and a half to go....again. Will the second trombone player grow a pair?

Les Sénatorium The Musical

One Day More

Christine Ford:
One day more,
Another day, another destiny,
This never ending road to Calvary;
These men who seem to know my crime
Will surely come a second time,
One day more...

Brett Kavanaugh:
One more day before the storm!
At the barricades of Freedom!
When our ranks begin to form,
Will you take your place with me?

Chuck Schumer:
One more day to revolution,
We will nip it in the bud!
We'll be ready for these schoolboys,
They will wet themselves with blood!

Chuck Grassley & Mitch McConnell:
Watch'm run amuck,
Catch'm as they fall,
Never know your luck
When there's a free-for-all,
Here a little dip
There a little touch,
Most of them are goners
So they won't miss much!

Us:
One day to a new beginning
Raise the flag of freedom high!
Every man will be a king
Every man will be a king
There's a new world for the winning
There's a new world to be won
Do you hear the people sing?

All:
Tomorrow we'll discover
What our God in Heaven has in store!
One more dawn
One more day
One day more!

-PJ

There aren’t many Senators I would trust, but Grassley’s one of them. He’s facing one hell of a headache from the fence-sitters in the GOP, and knows every move he makes must include a bone to throw to them.

Again, its not the Dems, its us. We won’t vote (so called republicans) If they give this victory to those who seek to destroy us they are truly domestic enemies and should be dealt with accordingly.

Grassley has what could be called a very flexible spine...

We noticed that FoxNews and FoxBiz hosts have been calling this lying weeotch a ‘survivor’. Even Hannity did.

WTH??

I saw on Twitter from a pretty credible source that this whole groveling ordeal is all the result of Flake, which should surprise absolutely no one.

Exactly right. And the Dems get a twofer here of non thinking Republicans mad at the whole party and sitting out the election.

We need MORE senators to avoid crap like this, not less.

Good riddance to Flake and Corker, now we have to get rid of Collins and Murkowski.

But his flaw may be that he is actually somewhat of a normal human, and he is dealing with evil sub-humans like Chuck Schumer and Kamala Harris.

Normal humans are always at a disadvantage when dealing with sociopaths.

Maybe flake is looking for a “McCain” moment.

"I know it sounds a little far fetched for the Republicans, but give that Even HuffPo could conduct a poll showing that anyone believes Ford maybe their intentionally letting this drag out in an attempt to make the Dems look even worse."

MM...

Yes is it will be all about intensity that first Tues in Nov. Follow me on this, gets a bit wonky.

* In 2006 the R's lost the House and Senate.
* I saw an interview with Schumer and he said they targeted essentially blue collar communities that were tired of Bushes wars.
* They started in PA and went westward through OH, etc etc.

So....

I looked up the lost districts and thought gee what faiths live in these districts?

* I found a map nationwide that had % concentrations per district. Wow that cool I thought, but to this day I regret not saving / downloading a copy of it.
* Then I looked at the D wins.
* The districts they won were highly Catholic.

Kavanaugh is Catholic. His getting on the the SC is probably a source of pride for them and will tend to vote R this fall if he does, just a hunch, given he is probably a pro-life Catholic @ heart, but must follow Stare Decisis, via his judicial temperament and no real case has come up through the ranks to challenge Roe-V-Wade.

With all that said...

Is this subtle Anti-Catholic vote supression? Seriously, they are trying to make him look like a predator, at a time a certain church is also dealing with these issues? Are the D's that clever or devious? Hmmm FISA/702's etc their is your answer. I think if they are this is a dangerous game, it may not suppress but drive folks to the polls.

Remember the Map I found, per Schumer tipping their hand of their strategy? Those places they took to win the House and Senate, Were Trump Country in 2016. So are they trying to win these back on the margins to take the House to go into their Goat Rodeo Impeachment? One might ask...

So freepers am I crazy here or is this theory a possibility.

Is it an absolute certainty that no Democrats will vote for Kavanaugh? Before this charade, it looked like a few very vulnerable Dems. might shift.

Which is why the skank won't show. The commie dems won't give anyone on the committee the chance to expose her lies and fabrications; especially under oath. It would give those few dems cover to vote for Judge BK.

I dunno how much longer Americans can coexist with these communist dems. I don't see it happening long term. Probably 20% of the registered dems are communist dems. They need to be identified and purged from our shores if we are to survive as a country.

I suspect it’s less Grassley and more Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski. As long as they want to drag this out it will be dragged out. The GOP holds only a one vote majority.

I thought Flakey said he’d vote for Kav, if this weeotch wouldn’t testify.

Did he change on that?

I think most of us see it exactly that way. This is definitely not Grassley’s doing. Just trying to coddle Flake just enough...

What about Kavanaugh's rights!

Wish more pundits would point that out..........

It's been 36 YEARS. He's completed -6 - SIX background checks as a sitting judge.
