OFFICIAL: Kavanaugh Hearings Thread

[yiostheoy]

Ford is a dingbat. Edith Bunker only dumber.

She can't even remember what happened last month. She has the Hillary defense, selective memory.

It's time to get the other people she claims were at the party to testify.

That wont happen. The repubs have already crashed and burned. If they get Judge under testimony it may very well end up with Drumpf getting impeached.

Not sure how you managed to morph to impeachment on this.

Impeachment has nothing to do with it.

This is all about a SCOTUS nomination with a bad past from high school and college using a Clintonesque denial that he did not have sex with that woman Monica Lewinsky.

What is being reported / revealed is like the sun - the Republicans want you to avert your eyes and NOT allow the FBI to do what they did with Anita Hill


truth 'it will burn out your eyes'....DON'T LOOK!

Do an FBI investigation. Go for it.


Just don't hold up the vote.

He will need to be impeached one way or another, so it may as well be while he sits on the supreme court.

 

[bodecea]

Of course she's a teacher.

Now it ALL makes sense.

Teachers and Education are BAD....especially for girls/women.

Hmmmmm

The Republican line on cspan has women being catty and nasty about Ford.

 

[rightwinger]

There is a guy on called Ron Christie who worked with kavanagh for Bush some time ago.
He thinks that she is believeable and also thinks that Kavanagh has a mountain to climb when he comes on.

I would like to see Kavenaugh questioned about his choirboy claims on Fox
I was a virginal choirboy who never drank or partied

Kavanaugh’s problem is that three other women have come forward. All of them credible. Democrats will have no hesitation in asking him about those different women. Including his male roommate from Yale.

So Jane doe is a credible accuser ?

 

[yiostheoy]

My read so far is that Kavanaugh was a dumbazz high school kid and college frat boy who now has to dance to the real music.

This can totally end his career.

He got away with something and it has come home to roost and haunt him now.

 

[martybegan]

Her state of mind in general is called into question by the hearings so far.

What is lacking is any real evidence against BK that can be verified or checked out at length.

It makes it impossible for him to mount any effective defense, and also limits her liability when it comes to any perjury accusations.

So allow the FBI to do what they did with Anita Hill?

There the FBI had jurisdiction, and the incident was less

The consequences make it a court as well, and not just an interview.

And the consequences are that he either gets the job or not.

You really think that is the only consequence?

If you really believe all the stories about him, wouldn't you want him Impeached from the DC Circuit?

You really think his career would keep going if he is turned down from the SC because of this?

Oh, wait, character assassination in the pursuit of politics is OK for political hacks like you because the ends justify the means.

No more no less than anyone else who has unpleasant stuff pop up during their job interview. If you are being interviewed for a job and they find that you've done X bad thing.....don't you think your current job should be in jeopardy?

Do they have te person lying about you attend your job interview and lie about you in person?

Actually, for important jobs, yes. That's what FBI background investigations do. Glad you're up to speed!

he's been through 6 of them in his career so far.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Wonder how many rocks the Dems had to look under to find Ford.

I think she slithered out and Feinstein outed her to assist her goal of crucifying BK.

 

[WEATHER53]

THE most remarkable thing so far is she has a remarkably poor memory. With no cooberation a razor sharp memory is you best ally and not a dull run
She cannot even remember from less than 6 weeks ago if her grandmothers death and the lie detector test were on the same day
She does come off as demure and even timid and not a wild party girl but when you bring these kind of charges-you must have sharp recollections of it

Impeachment has nothing to do with it.

This is all about a SCOTUS nomination with a bad past from high school and college using a Clintonesque denial that he did not have sex with that woman Monica Lewinsky.

This is about delaying the confirmation vote.

Kavanaugh would need to be impeached from the DC Court anyway. They may as well go ahead and confirm him, let the FBI investigate, then impeach him if they find something.

Which one are you talking about?

You have a severe antecedent problem.

I am guessing you flunked college technical writing.

Or did not go to college at all.

Just public high school.

At best.

A woman whose life is destroyed (which it wasn't), even in theory, because she went to a party and was groped by a drunk teen boy while his friends laughed....is a piss poor example of a female.

If that is the worst thing that has even happened to her, she's not a woman. She's a fucking child.

She is actually very childlike and immature for her physical age and education/profession. She is answering in such a way that a 15yo would. Did she never grow up during those 32 years?

I enjoyed the redundant phrasing and poor grammar used in her opening statement. I was asking myself, "This person has a Doctorate?"

Put that English major to work and speak English yah wanker.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Kavanaugh has been hit with a torpedo. He has a very tough chance to stay afloat with his testimony today. This will be interesting.

What was the torpedo? I must have missed it!

 

[Pop23]

A few highlights:

1. Dr. Ford stated that the incident started when they met at the Pool (her letter). But under testimony she said she only assumes it was at the pool.

2. Her attorney responded to the committee that she would not be able to attend a hearing on Wednesday because they would HAVE TO DRIVE, delaying the meeting until Thursday. BUT THEN FLEW.

3. She is claustrophobic and afraid to fly, but has spent hours and hours and hours of flying in a closed cabin for entertainment and business, but couldn't fly to, as she said, "do her civic duty"?

4. When asked if she gave permission to have her identity revealed her answer? Not that I can recall?

5. Can't recall if she was informed if she was being recorded during her polygraph test? Huh, any administrator of these tests MUST get clear and recorded permission to record, AND THESE TESTS MUST BE RECORDED.

6. Can't recall who gave her a ride home? After such a terrible thing happened? The escape would be the most memorable event, after the alleged incident itself. WTF?

 

[bodecea]

Why would you expect specific details of an event from 35 years ago

Why would you expect allegations from 35 years ago to be credible?

Ask that of all those victims of priest molestation.

No one has said the FBI had jurisdiction. Thank you for the offer f of red herring

I guess the longer in the past an incident is, the less you want it investigated.
