As long as Kavanaugh doesn’t do anything outrageous (like smoke a cigarette, God forbid), he’s in good stead for confirmation.

We are on the downhill portion now, so all he needs to do is coast in to the confirmation. It is now apparent the brilliance of the 5 minute interval strategy. Fairness and bent ear for Ford, momentum building for Kavanaugh. He should just coast now, there is nothing more to be gained by being any more outraged. The break will allow a reset regarding composure.

The Judge needs to say asked and answered here on out if they bring up anymore questions about the drinking, memory, passing out.

No one asked Ford how long she was at the party before the incident occurred. Like had she been there for hours and never drank but had to go up to the bathroom? You go to a party and don’t drink? Or did she walk in and 5 min later went upstairs to bathroom and got attacked shortly after arriving?

Yeah, but those of us in New Jersey all know that never happened.

Cory Booker has a habit of fabricating stories to enhance his credibility in key areas of his life where he feels major deficiencies.

When he ran for mayor of Newark and the incumbent mayor called him a white suburban Jewish guy, he made up a story about hanging around on the streets of Newark with a fictional thug named "T-Bone," listening to his stories about how hard life is in the 'hood.

When he was an athlete at Stanford and everyone suspected he was a homosexual, he penned a fictitious story about a groping incident on New Year's Eve 1984.

See the pattern here?

Yes, they did not press her to avoid any issues, but with Judge K pounding back like this, it will turn out okay. Not that they had any plan of that. They were just avoiding getting called bad names.

She’s a liberal activist, a rabid supporter of abortion, even did work for the company that makes the abortion drug RU468... She sees herself as called to do this, lie for the greater good.. It’s like asking someone, would you kill Hitler if you had a chance to, even though murder is a crime.. Everyone would say yes... She sees her mission is to stop a man she believes could be a deciding vote on abortion laws.


I totally agree, this is all about the BLOOD LUST that Democrats have for abortion. They’re terrified that their “right” to murder babies may someday be taken away from them.

They just can’t get enough of aborting babies under any circumstances. They are pure evil and deserve to roast in hell for eternity.

She was there to be completely impartial and to pull out information. Her role ended when she indicated that she “had no more questions”.

Oh goodness yes. Many live election night threads are bigger.

POTUS 2016 Live election thread had 10K posts I believe.

I’m waiting for the edit of just Mitchell’s questions and the responses. Without all the Dem speeches. But with all of Ford’s giggling and other strange behavior.

The Rats have turned this into a circus, so why not make it a three ring circus. Dare the Rats to prove they aren’t engaging in smear tactics to delay and to vote for Kavanaugh. Only after he’s confirmed do they get to have an FBI investigation, and if it’s fruitful, they can impeach Kavanaugh.

That would never happen, but it would be entertaining.

Yes. Don’t bag on the prosecutor! She followed what the GOP wanted done. Left the Dems no soundbytes or “sexist” talking points that they can use.

She wasn't killing anyone

She was killing auditors (a long word for the audience listening to her). The most emotionally charged hearing of a lifetime, on one of the most important questions of the day and she was going to run out the clock putting us to sleep.

I hope she doesn't do that as a prosecutor.

Threads this long were a common daily occurrence during Gulf War 2.
