Democrats and Republicans are party first country second.  You can see it by the way they vote.
Republicans obstructed obama as much as possible & now Democrats are going to do the same.

This is our new normal.  Bend over and take it.
...as Russia polarizes the two sides and giggle on the sidelines at all the funny headlines their troll farm creates.

Unfortunate, but true. This is politics.

Keep this in perspective though. During the Civil Rights Era, people were beaten and killed for expressing support.
Think about the thousands who were beaten or killed under Chairman Mao based on uncorroborated allegations. Have you ever stepped on anyone's toes in your life? Exes, business partners, relatives, random acquaintances?  What if that person decides to lob a Dr. Ford caliber allegation at you? You will be doomed. "I believe women!", that's all the proof needed nowadays.

whether or not you thought there was gender inequality in the workplace before, there will certainly be inequality after this whole debacle because who in their right mind would want to hire women who could potentially take down a businesses with false claims of sexual assault?  the mentality moving forward will be that you can't even be in the same room with a woman in the workplace with the door closed to have a meeting without risking your job and your life.
 
It's falling apart right in front of our eyes.

'Christine Ford threw her under the bus.' Strained 'sex assault' witness Leland Keyser is seen for the first time as close family member confirms she did NOT corroborate schoolfriend Ford's story to FBI

A weary-looking Leland Keyser was seen for the first time since Christine Ford named her as a corroborating witness to claims Brett Kavanaugh attempted to rape her
Keyser, 52, whom Ford described as her 'best friend' at Holton-Arms preparatory school in Bethesda, Maryland, was her final hope for corroboration
However, the former pro golfer couldn't corroborate Ford's story when she was interviewed by the FBI on Saturday
Pictured in DailyMailTV exclusive photos for the first time since news Ford named her, Keyser showed the stress of being put into the national spotlight
The close relative expressed anger at Ford's suggestion that Keyser could not recall the party because of the 'significant health challenges'

The more dirt the dems can dig up on brett, the better they will look come NOV midterms.
If brett gets confirmed or not, the dems need to make sure he looks really bad.

That way if brett does get confirmed, the fence sitters will vote dem in the midterms for confirming such a crap candidate.
So expect a ton more shit to come out about this guy in the coming days.


Call it what you want...it's sound political strategy.

Wow. Just... Wow.

You guys/gals confirm every stereotype of Trump's base. Congrats.

As I have said several times before , the political forum is the watering hole for select really hardened Orange County Republicans.  You can beat your head against the wall wrt logic , it only excites them ( ?look ma, I am owning the libs again :)
 
A Classmate Has Told the FBI That Kavanaugh Lied Under Oath About Knowledge of Yale Assault, Report Says

A Yale classmate and friend of Brett Kavanaugh, the embattled Trump nomination for Anthony Kennedy?s former seat on the Supreme Court, has reportedly delivered text messages to the FBI that were exchanged among Kavanaugh?s friends related to an accusation of assault before the details became public.

If the texts were found to be accurate, they contradict sworn testimony by Kavanaugh.

The classmate, Kerry Berchem, prepared a memo about the text messages and attempted to submit them to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Sept. 27 following Kavanaugh?s testimony and that of Christine Blasey Ford, according to NBC News, which obtained a copy of the memo. ...

Agree . As I said here last week , best outcome from a pure midterm perspective is Kav naugh gets confirmed and THEN more bad stuff comes out right after .

Dems can always increase the size of Supreme Court in 2020 and beyond
 
good morning!

White House Finds No Support in FBI Report for Claims Against Kavanaugh

The White House has found no corroboration of the allegations of sexual misconduct against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh after examining interview reports from the FBI?s latest probe into the judge?s background, according to people familiar with the matter.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/white-house-finds-no-corroboration-of-sexual-misconduct-allegations-against-kavanaugh-in-fbi-report-1538625927
 
I can't keep track with all these posts but who else other than Kings and morekaos supports Kavanaugh?

Is this really partisan/Trump support?

Again, I'm neither Dem/Rep but it just seems that a position that doesn't have term limits requires someone who is more balanced.
 
Why can't the White House answer simple questions regarding the limited scope of the investigation? Pretty funny Kavanaugh isn't being questioned considering the patently false statements he made to the Senate Committee under oath.

If you're one of the fence-sitters on this Committee, or the Senate at large, you can easily argue that, "My No vote isn't a verdict on the sexual assault claim. My No vote is the result of Kavanaugh's conspiratorial rage, very InfoWars-like, demeanor and evasive/false testimony before the committee. We can do better. We have plenty of Federalists to choose from. Let's pick a different one."
 
In general, this is why top talent out of college go to private industry. (the government is rigged)

Let?s have an investigation, but partial. Give me a break!
 
So the Dems demand an FBI investigation and now they say an FBI investigation is uncredible.

Boy, didn't see that one coming.

Dude if someone robbed your house. I think you expect the police to investigate who did it. But if they only look at your neighbor and not camera footage from your ring camera or witness that saw a car with people running from your house.

I think you might be appalled if that happens. But what do I know.
