Michael Goodwin: Kavanaugh saga: Before Trump, only Dems were allowed to fight win. Now it’s a fai
fox news ^ | 10/3/2018 | MICHAEL GOODWIN

Posted on 10/03/2018 9:29:26 PM PDT by bitt

Reader Jamie Gelfand asks the right question about the Brett Kavanaugh disgrace, writing: “If Christine Blasey Ford held a news conference tomorrow and said she made everything up and apologized for dragging Kavanagh through the mud, would even one Democrat change his vote?”

The question answers itself because the Dems keep moving the goalposts. When one line of attack fails, they come up with another. The only consistency is their determination to keep Kavanaugh off the Supreme Court.

Recall that some of the party’s initial talking-point objections described his judicial rulings as “extreme” and “out of the mainstream.”

They are neither, which is why the Dems moved on, as a last gasp, to allegations of sexual misconduct. Ford would never have been heard from if the “out of the mainstream” tag had gained traction.

We may see a confirmation vote on Saturday, when most government employees are drunk, stoned or otherwise being entertained. Good timing!

It isn’t a fair fight for Kavanaugh.

This man got royally screwed unlike anyone I have ever seen in my life.

This is way, WAY worse than Bork.

Yep. And that’s why anyone with a logical bone in their body will VOTE conservative on November 6th!

No, it isn't.

This is a war of wits and the enemy is unarmed.

I will, but in regards to the Senate, only for a candidate who worked without a hiccup for Kavanaugh’s nomination. An incumbent who so little as said he wanted to hear more from Blasey wouldn’t have gotten my vote.

Agreed. There won’t be the slightest chance for another Sandra Day O’Connor, either. We’re drumming that idea off of the list of possibilities, before the GOP-e tries to push it.

Every nominee must have thoroughly proven himself with a long record of decisions that are conducive to public trust.

It's worse than Bork and Thomas combined!

I can't think of anything, re the ADVISE & CONSENT of a Justice, EVER, not in all of the history of this nation, that has even remotely been this brutal and disgusting.

There was an attorney on the Laura Ingram show tonight and apparently he is one of best defamation attorneys in the country. He said that Kavanaugh should keep the option of suing on the table even if he is confirmed to the court.

Alan Dershowitz said that Julie Swetnick could be in trouble for perjury as well. He said if she knowingly set up to defame a person she could get jail time if found guilty. There are rumblings that she has never ever met Kavanaugh and the whole thing was made up of whole cloth..

Not being a pinko is extreme to the Democrat shill who run the so-called “news” media.

They have corrupted this process and the senate to a point that basically defies description.

The only way these people can even begin to try and turn back the damage they have done is to admit their mistake and vote for this man 100-0.

But they are not going to do that.

The Demonrats have gone all in on the total destruction of a totally innocent man solely to quench their lust for power.

It’s sicking, literally disgusting, to have seen this, but I cannot even imagine how Judge Kavanaugh views what has happened.

I totally agree with you on this, Kavanaugh WAS a Bushy type Justice could have very well turned out to be like Roberts, HOWEVER these IDIOT Dems have created a justice that will be another Thomas, Scalia, Alito, he will NEVER forget what was done to him and THEY will now pay for it!!! He NOW has his eyes wide open as to what these BASTARDS want to do to this republic!!!

These criminal vermin must be made an example of.

None of this can be allowed to stand.

All of the Demonrats of the senate Judiciary Committee need to resign, and they should go to prison as well, for abuse of power.
