so I'm sure you'd agree we should investigate before we vote on his lifetime appointment to such a serious and significant role

Like I was suspecting, this is a desperate delay tactic. Daddy Brett will be on the court by the end of the month and there's nothing you can do about it. Let the Handmaids Tale commence!

I’m no Kavanaugh fan but trying to Roy Moore him isn’t going to stop anything.

Will be an interesting test case as to how far society has progressed, or more accurately how our government reflects that advancement, since sexual harasser Clarence Thomas was confirmed 52-48

We might do worse than that.

Red state Democrats have NO reason or excuse to vote to confirm Kavanaugh.

I'll be watching Manchin, Donnelly & Heitkamp closely.

Except we have absolutely no evidence about this, the FBI dismissed it and Feinstein didn't think it was worthwhile except as a hail-Mary. Stop deluding yourself

"Sixty-five women who knew Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh in high school have testified to his good character in a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee, in light of recently surfaced allegations that he tried to force himself on a girl during his time at Georgetown Preparatory School."

https://www.vox.com/2018/9/14/17860488/brett-kavanaugh-sexual-assault-georgetown-prep-defense

I mean, none of this matters, Republicans will happily vote for him even if the claim can be substantiated, but what a bizarre and unbelievable defense Grassley prepared for this. Kavanugh is 53-years-old and went to an all boys' school. There is zero chance he can name 65 women he remembers from the time he was a teenager.

The charges of sexual assault against Kavanaugh are completely baseless, which is why Republicans went and got 65 women to sign a document detailing what an awesome not-rapist he is. Just in case.

The FBI literally dismissed this report  as BS really quickly . That indicates this document was more of a smear document than anything

Let me guess, you were one of the people who believed Harry Reid when he made up sh@t about Mitt Romney's taxes?

How on earth did they just so happen to have a prepared document with sixty-five testimonies of women Kavanaugh apparently knew in high school?

I’m no Kavanaugh fan but trying to Roy Moore him isn’t going to stop anything.

The allegations against Moore were much more thoroughly substantial (and I, too, do not care for BK and think he will make an awful Justice)

If the document had actual corroborated accusations in anyway , Feinstein would not have sat on it , the fact that she waited all this time indicates it’s more of a smear job than anything else.

This gives red state Democrats an easy out. If Kavanaugh is confirmed with this information out there the Senate is gone for Republicans. His confirmation isn't going to stop more details from being released and if that happens it's an electoral nightmare. It isn't 1991 anymore.
