Yes Grassley just took a giant shit on Kavanaugh. I hope they all lose their seats. American doesn’t deserve Kavanaugh.

Keep in mind the Committee requested all pertinent docs from the test and were refused because the Atty for Ford said they were “not important”

It’s interesting that the letters from the 2 men that indicated it was them didn’t come up. Bet it will now.

Listening to NPR, they do not realize how they are over analyzing the situation. Some people have the ability be able to discern that - the people on NPR. Marra (sp?) Liasson, Nina Totenburg, Ron Elving (sp?), etc - all are doing this.

Or option 3; the GOPe wing of the Uniparty is trying to injure Trump and cripple his Administration so they are managing this process to lose. 3,983 posted on ‎9‎/‎27‎/‎2018‎ ‎1‎:‎06‎:‎55‎ ‎PM by Truth29 I'd add the GOPe wing of the UNIparty is PRO-ABORTION! There are a lot of conservative people who are asleep!

Yes, that also crossed my mind. I remember the 1970s, for sure, and only one person I knew even HAD a one-piece suit, and she was a competitive swimmer. EVERYONE ELSE had bikini’s. I have to believe that was the same in the 1980s.

THEN - if Ford HAD been wearing a 2-piece, the assaulter would have had an easy time getting into her clothing.

So the 1-piece assertion kind of reflects badly on her, on two fronts, IMHO.

"Christine, shove it up your hippocampus!"

While watching her while someone other than the prosecutor was talking, her eyes, and head were darting all around, like she was watching a tennis match.

If it were my husband I’d probably be more mad than anything else. And probably ready to kick someone’s behind.

The Republicans boxed themselves in to the point where they had to have this female prosecutor come in because they were accused of being all white men, but then even with this female prosecutor, they still had to guard against beating up on the witness and so on.

I think the prosecutor did an excellent job in laying out the case really well and poking lots of holes in Ford's story and credibility. However, I'll acknowledge it's a case better for a courtroom then public opinion which is going to be bullshitted anyway by the media.

On the other hand, I think the damage was actually done with one word and that was from Grassley who thanked Ford and couldn't help himself and called her heroic. With one word, he undid everything else on the Republican side because that'll be the clip of the day.

We know that the Democrats are going to spend 4:55 of their five minutes braiding and insulting and badger ring Judge Kavanaugh and then leaving him 5 seconds to answer a very loaded question when they're done.

This should be Kavanaugh's closing argument...

For those of you with a son, imagine if a girl accused him of sexual assault at a party. But, the three other individuals who the girl says were there said it either didn't happen or don't recall any such party. Who would you believe?

I know it is not that simplistic, but this ultimately comes down to a "he says, she says." Without any eyewitnesses or proof, you can't say definitively conclude that he is guilty and thus you can't keep him off the court. Sorry.. tie goes to the runner!

Goodness. I can’t imagine a cat not knowing its name.

“CATS” had a great song about naming a cat.

Insert wink here and I’m a bit bored.

Kavanaugh is being serious or is worried.

Grassley is entering the 3 party goers’ affidavits of denial of any this happening into file. He should have done that while that wacko prof was still under question.

“they will figure out that the tactics no longer work.”

wouldn’t count on that...
when something doesn’t work for a dim.. they just escalate whatever they did in the first place by 5.
