The Odious Intent Behind The Democratic Obsession To Get The FBI To Investigate Kavanaugh
Townhall ^ | Sep 20, 2018 2:05 PM | Matt Vespa

Democrats are doing everything they can to stop the Supreme Court nomination of Brett Kavanaugh. We knew that. The problem was they had little to no tools to accomplish this. The GOP had the votes. The moderate wing of the Senate GOP had more or less given their stamp of approval. All they could do was create a ruckus, which they did during the hearings. The committee vote was slated for this past Thursday, but Feinstein’s office dropped a bombshell: a sexual misconduct allegation that has so far been poorly handled by Democrats. The timing is incredibly suspect. The allegation is nearly 40 years old. And the accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, can’t remember where the party was, who hosted it, how she got there, or how this gathering came about. There are no corroborative witnesses, all those cited by Ford have denied the incident occurring, with some even wondering if such a party took place. It’s unprovable. Period. But that’s the beauty of it for Democrats; it creates a path to delay until after the 2018 midterms. They’re weaponizing Me Too for the elections. It’s the resurrection of the War on Women from 2012, though this allegation could be totally false. Democrats want the FBI to investigate. The FBI has already said they’re not going to touch it. They did their duty concerning the background check, there’s no federal crime, and this is a political issue, not one for law enforcement.

Odd, because by far, most of the male perps seem to be way, way lefty dems.

It all stinks to high heaven. It also sends a message to all future conservative nominees: expect to be destroyed on your way to the Court.

Since day one of me too, I have always said this is going to be Weaponized. And here we are. Now we know the reason for the eff me too movement. It’s a hammer to use against Republicans. Too bad our political right side betters didn’t see this one coming. I thought Politicians were the smartest people on earth! Apparently not

Whole thing was mishandled. Republicans should have said thanks for the letter, we believe you, now let’s vote. Her story never should have been considered disqualifying. Drunk 17 year old jumped on a girl at a party. Big deal.

Really, Feinstein should have hired a private investigator to research this and the “the media” should have confirmed the story before publicizing it.

Of course, all Feinstein and “the media” wanted is to assassinate Justice Kavanaugh’s character.

WHAT are they going to investigate? There is no police report, no witnesses, no evidence!! This thing starts and ends with HER. SHE is the one making the accusation, it is on HER to prove it. This is absolute BULLSH*T that anyone can just out of the blue make this kind of accusation at the 11th hour and all these lefties treat it as 100% true and Kavanaugh guilty, what kind of totalitarian anti-constitutional crap is this? Is this how the left wants things to be run? Maybe we should start accusing them of being child rapists and demand they be thrown in jail ASAP.

Supposedly jumped on a girl but most likely did not as there is no evidence, no police report nor any witnesses.

The only reason they want the FBI is because it delays Kavanaugh. Its all about time. The Senate has to vote. And when they do, it all goes away.

The supposed victim does not even know where or when this supposedly happened.
There is nothing to investigate without that.

The RATS can call for an “investigation” of this by the FBI until they are bluer in the face. Ain’t gonna happen. FBI works on federal crimes, not this high school stuff.

It is obvious that this has been just a Democrat stunt from the get go.

Okay, men, let’s fight this. I think lots of younger (and all ages of) men will have a little light go on that shows them the dark, slimy side of the women voters who vote feminist.

They want revenge on men. We males are guilty unless and until proven innocent (which no one can do. You can oppose a guilty verdict but how can you prove a non-action?).

Every old female friend or date is now a potential aggressor who can decide to destroy a man out of revenge.

I hope there will be a huge backlash by males against this.

Here is the truly nutty part of this......the harpies are infuriated that Ford is being forced to “testify”. Absolutely insane, so did they think that a secret letter from a secret source, given to a political fellow harpie was all they would need to put Kavanaugh in prison for the rest of his life?

Another Democrat effort to politicize the FBI.

The mistake the Democrats made here (one of several) is that they demanded an FBI investigation instead of going right to the "we must have a special counsel" bullsh!t.

Everyone in both political parties knows that the "independent, bi-partisan FBI" will become the "crooked, white-washing Trump FBI" as soon as their investigation ends and they don't produce a report with any damning information about Kavanaugh.
