“Many posters are convinced Kavanaugh is drunk at this hearing.”

They’re projecting, poor things.

“She knows what she’s doing. Don’t you know being drunk means zero in women being sexually assaulted. I’m not being facetious.”

In terms of consent drinking is not an issue, however drinking may effect her memory of the event.

I also think the current standard of sexual assault is ridiculous. By today’s definition a teenage boy trying to get to second base (even over the clothes) during a makeout session is guilty of sexual assault if the girl objects. Sexual assault used to mean something serious, now it can be almost meaningless.

Grassley may be one of the good guys, but he's kind of tough to listen to.

He's sort of a Republican Sam Ervin, for those old enough to remember.

"You obviously didn’t watch his opening statement."

I haven't watched any of this circus. I've been relying on input on Free Republic and other sites. So did his eyes water up and a tear run down his face or not? Please answer.

Remember that one of Fords lawyers is also McCabes lawyer. Think about that for a minute

Yup. They know they’re cooked alright. Kavanaugh’s opening statement took a lot out of what they had planned ... you can see it in their Leftist mugs.

Everyone bitches about the evil loony Dims (and with good reason), but there's been a lot of serious 'unhinged' in this thread today.

If the FBI couldn’t find out anything with 6 background checks, what can they find out now?

It’s all a ploy to delay, delay, delay.

On October 10th a very important hearing before the Supreme Court will be held.

16-1363 NIELSEN, SECRETARY OF HOMELAND SECURITY V. PREAP
DECISION BELOW: 831 F.3d 1193
CERT. GRANTED 3/19/2018
QUESTION PRESENTED:
Whether a criminal alien becomes exempt from mandatory detention under 8 U.S.C.
1226(c) if, after the alien is released from criminal custody, the Department of Homeland
Security does not take him into immigration custody immediately.
*******************************
The Dems want to drag out any confirmation so as to pack the court for the above case. Obviously the lower court ruled that illegal alien criminals walk free, if Homeland Security fails to immediately take the criminal alien into custody. With Sanctuary States and cities fighting ICE, and refusing to hand over illegal aliens, this becomes very important.

Would Kavanaugh be able to be part of the ruling, if he were not seated by the time the appeal is heard by the Supreme Court?

If the vote is split (probably will be), the ruling of the lower court would stand and the Dems fighting ICE and Trump will have succeeded in allowing illegal alien criminals to be immune to arrest or prosecution for their illegal entry into the US.

Exactly. Precisely.

And Feinstein put that into hypermode. It will be open season. The D’s actually tried to get Judge K to answer to charges before Ford even made a statement.

Definitely “counterproductive”. Mitchell was ineffective with Doctored Fraud”. She was sucking air for Kavanaugh, which was killing his defense case.

Graham appeared and galvanized the testosterone levels like an injection.

The ground shifted.

But I have NEVER, not even once, NEEDED a pro athlete, a media personality, or a Hollywood entertainer for ANYTHING.”
I think it was Alice Cooper, or Gene Simmons who said "Anyone who gets their information from a celebrity is a bigger fool than the celebrity."

“Haven’t seen her in a while. Maybe the committee members had a choice. Each one has a turn, and they could either call on her to do the questioning, or question themselves. She may turn up later.”

She may - I wouldn’t be surprised to see herdo a bit of a closing statement. I’m not as critical of her as some because I don’t think she has been trained for bare knuckle politics.
