Grassley and Feinstein are ready to play hardball politics.
Everyone on the panel at abc(except Gov.Christie) all ignoring that balsy Ford is a dem activist first and that none of this is about women’s rights and how they have been treated historically. No matter how hard they try and make it that this is about killing off the best scotus applicant we have had in decades.
For starters, per Anita Hill, an advance on a book, hero status, and lucrative speaking engagements. Secondly, she lives in Palo Alto, where SJW's are beloved. Death threats ? Pullleeaazzz ...
Which show is that stupid wench lawyer on?
I have doubts that her movers will let her appear, given the parameters of testifying under oath and testifying before Kavanaugh. The "agreement" wasn't a real agreement, leaving them an escape. I don't believe that she is a coachable witness no matter how much time given.
And now with 4 (four) sworn witnesses against her, I believe that this is about Grassley giving the 'rats enough rope (and enough time) to hang themselves.
Counter-balanced by the optics of old white men grilling a younger woman. And her assumed liberal leanings add creditability to her prosecution.
Best line was Pompeo’s last one”:
“I assume that talking about wiring the president, talking about the 25th amendment is not being on the team,” Wallace said.
“Not remotely,” he replied.
The cross-country trip will prove too draining, they'll need more time. Denied. She won't testify...terms haven't been agreed upon to their satisfaction.

I don’t think Ford will ever testify.
Why not? She's the one that opened that door...and seemingly has "a reputation"....unlike Kavanaugh.
Why would a 15 year old attend an alleged drinking party with four boys?
Because she has "a reputation".
Ford is the only one who remember the party. None of the other four attendees remember it including her long time girl friend.
That's because she's a lying-whackjob, another attribute you can add to "alcoholic-slut".
This is the second time in recent weeks that I’ve seen Chris Christie appear as a ‘panalist’ on one of these shows...one more appearance will confirm a new career path for Christie is emerging.
Indulge me in a little personal story.
My friend, who I call Diane Feinstein cause she looks like her, has had a very, very rough year.
She lost her quasi-husband in February, we had to have her dog put to sleep about a month go, very sick dog, crippled.
She’s in a financial mess but she’s doing well. She is 70 years old this year. I do admire her. Wish the REAL DIFI was such a dedicated worker.
Anyway, my DIFI decided she needed to get a job.
So she did up a resume and found a couple of folks she used to work for to use as references. She went to the library and copied then sent them off.
Guys and gals reading this, SHE IS GOING NUTS!!!
Everybody in Sussex county wants to hire her! Hey people, when Trump says the economy is rocking, IT’s TRUE!
“I don’t want to serve pizza,” she says when Pizza hut calls. On and on she went about getting contacted for a job and at some point I told her that Trump has this economy so there’s more jobs open than people looking for one.
Hey folks, there are thousand of jobs out there. My Difi had to turn off her cell phone and I told her to stay off the streets lest they grab her to employ her.
Heh.
I don't see how that can be possible under the Constitution. We are not at war and they are American citizens afforded all the Constitutional protections.
Following in his shoes is Nikki Haley on ABC. She just politely put Stuffy Stephy in his place as well. Stuffy asks her: "you mean potus won't ask Rouhanni to come to the us for talks.?"
Haley says; "no way, what has Rouhanni/Iran done to expect the potus to talk to him". This after Haley tells Stuffy potus won't go to the norks either since bad behavior does not win acceptance from Trump.
That gripes me as well.
It’s not correct to address a person with a PhD as “Doctor.” That title is reserved for those who have earned an MD.
The correct title is “Professor.”
There are reports that Flake is going to vote “Present.” I don’t know if 50-49 is good enough for confirmation. I hope it is.
Good as gold Rock,its pretty well acknowledged that by 18 or so Balsy Ford was an alcoholic. That’s why she doesn’t want to talk about her early days and expect much of that to be erased as well.
Christie does a pretty good job no doubt.
I wont argue with you since you have probably forgotten more about govt. than I know. Just telling what I see on the web.We always appreciate your wisdom.
