Feinstein Statement on Scheduling of Kavanaugh Vote for Friday
Senate Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) ^ | Sep 25 2018 | Senate Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.)

Posted on 09/25/2018 6:50:20 PM PDT by mdittmar

Washington—Senate Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) today released the following statement after Republicans scheduled a vote on Brett Kavanaugh for Friday morning:

“For Republicans to schedule a Friday vote on Brett Kavanaugh today, two days before Dr. Blasey Ford has had a chance to tell her story, is outrageous.

“First Republicans demanded Dr. Blasey Ford testify immediately. Now Republicans don’t even need to hear her before they move ahead with a vote.

“It’s clear to me that Republicans don’t want this to be a fair process.”

According to Grundy’s life, Thursday precedes Friday:

Solomon Grundy,
Born on a Monday,
Christened on Tuesday,
Married on Wednesday,
Took ill on Thursday,
Grew worse on Friday,
Died on Saturday,
Buried on Sunday.
That was the end,
Of Solomon Grundy.

“Now Republicans don’t even need to hear her before they move ahead with a vote.”

Because she puts unreasonable conditions on the hearing, and her story sounds like crap anyway, and was brought at the last minute. In other words, your little ploy didn’t work.

You have to schedule the vote in advance, ie give notification. SO, if Grassley waits until after testimony, the vote wont occur until next week.

They’re trying to shame GP with their base.

Does this 90 year old juvenile expect to be taken seriously?

Just scheduling the vote early enough that none of them get too surprised by a quick call and try to find excuses to delay it...also sets a line in the sand....have Ford there or miss the chance you keep howling for...

It was originally scheduled for last Thursday!

Maybe it’s time to impeach Feinstein for her shameful BS!

Put Di Fi under oath at the hearing and get to the bottom of how this mess came to be. I’m sure the mass public will be watching and would learn something.like the time McCain was bumbling on the senate floor.

Just so we don’t forget the RINO’s (many who still need to be primaried) who Feinstinked our alabama senate nominee (just like they’re doing to Kavanaugh now) i’ll list who i remember:

Paul Ryan,Mitch McConnell,Orrin Hatch, Susan Collins, Lindsey Graham, Todd Young and Cory Gardner, Steve Daines , Thom Tillis and Richard Burr, McCain,Corker, Richard Shelby,Flake, Pat Toomey, Bill Cassidy

(grammatically correct, or should that be Feinstank or Feinstunk?)

Feinstein has no idea how far she has fallen from reality.

Why is she not in shackles and an orange jumpsuit?

I think DiFi’s brains re slipping & are scrambled.

She really is demonstrating that she is no longer fit for office of Senator.

Problem is that DeLeon is worse.

I’m 50-50 on whether she will show. You know Murkowski and the Democrats want her there.

You figure it out.

Perhaps your post was misunderstood because of your ambiguity and poor grammar?
