Are you making things up again?

She said on CNN that his credibility in this accusation is "very questionable", specifically because of the way that he has decides cases, and she specified women's reproductive rights. As if Kavanaugh is opposed to reproductive rights in any general kind of sense, but liberals don't like to use the word "abortion", even though that's all this is.

Unless he decides cases by forcing himself on unwilling women, how can his judicial record have any bearing in this accusation? Go ahead and explain that, please?

Now he's a serial rapist according to the 3rd accuser, and yet six FBI investigations failed to uncover any of this. Fascinating.

I believe she questioned his application of the facts in cases she's very familiar with and questions his credibility because of that. This makes her an "enemy of the people?" That's some standard.

As for the background check, we've covered that before.

Put a fork in him Jim.

I believe she questioned his application of the facts in cases she's very familiar with and questions his credibility because of that. is above reproach because she' has a 'D' after her name. Fixed it for you.

I would advise a ten day FBI investigation, and if it turns up zip, that's the end of it. I don't think they will withdraw his nomination based on allegations that are not only unsubstantiated, but explicitly denied by the witnesses named by the accuser. Spence, how many times does Ford have to say "this person was there", and have that person flatly deny that, before even you start scratching your head? Is that remotely possible? Or is all that matters to you, the politics? Does justice ever factor into your thinking? Because if there's any actual evidence, I'd scream for his nomination to be withdrawn.

And if Trump ever nominates another judge, I hope he picks Mrs Barrett, the one who Feinstein said "the dogma is loud in you". Let your side dig up dirt that she's a slut.

Trump isn't Bush. I wouldn't count on him withdrawing the nomination without something more than allegations. For all his many faults, one thing I admire about him, is that he cares about not cowering to the mob. He could not care less what they think. There's no pressuring this guy with these tactics.

I think Judge is the only witness who denies he was there. The others just don't recall, and I believe most of them support Ford. I don't think I could recall most of the parties I was at in high school or college unless something noteworthy happened.

This isn't a matter of justice, it's a very big job interview.

these are the weakest allegations of sexual assault in the history of allegations of sexual assault

"In the course of calling former classmates to corroborate her claim that Brett Kavanaugh drunkenly exposed himself to her at a dorm party, Deborah Ramirez told a number of them that she wasn’t entirely sure that Kavanaugh was responsible, the New York Times reported Sunday.

“The Times had interviewed several dozen people over the past week in an attempt to corroborate her story, and could find no one with firsthand knowledge,” the Times reported. “Ms. Ramirez herself contacted former Yale classmates asking if they recalled the incident and told some of them that she could not be certain Mr. Kavanaugh was the one who exposed himself.

Ramirez went public in a Sunday New Yorker article with the accusation that Kavanaugh, then a freshman at Yale, thrust his penis in her face while playing a drinking game. The article does not include any eyewitness accounts and several of Kavanaugh’s college friends and roommates disputed the claim in a statement."

So how has Kavanaugh decided any cases, in a way which makes it more likely, that he is a violent pervert? I'm all ears...

I believe you believe what you wrote, because I believe you can talk yourself into believing pretty much anything that the Democrats go along with.
She should be called out for the extremist she is, oh and also have her head examined.
