  1. Lol. It's good the Republicans got Trump. What is it about Trump??? ONLY TRUMP CAN GET THE LEFT SO EASILY UNHINGED!
  2. These Democrat Senators should move elsewhere where they belong. Venezuela, maybe?
  3. You're ranting. There is nothing with substance in your long post. It's a mindless tirade! You also proved that this opposition to Kavanaugh is all about TRUMP! Excuse me, Rue....but I think the ABA (American Bar Association) has the facts, the knowledge and the credibility when it comes to his demeanor as a judge. It gave him the highest rating a month before this fiasco began. How the ABA is now reacting towards him (re-evaluating his ratings), is but evidence how the Democrats had ruined this man's reputation.....all because of an allegation. An uncorroborated and refuted allegation, that has more holes than a sieve. I hope the populace will realize that. It doesn't take much to shred someone's life and reputation in our current climate. I suppose the sexual assault accusation had collapsed - so now, the Dems are using Kavanaugh's alleged "partisanship" and "temperament" as the new goalpost! That's the kind of dishonesty we're dealing with - and there isn't even any attempt at pretense, anymore. That's what's scary about this. As for his "temperament' at the hearing - you're forgetting that he wasn't there to judge. He was there to face vicious accusations - which he saw as a smear campaign to destroy his reputation, his family, his accomplishments. Under such circumstances - I'd say he had controlled himself well. He's but a normal human being - not a heartless, evil person - not a psychopath - like the Democrats, who doesn't have the capacity to emphatize as to how someone in his shoes would feel. What are they? Robots? From another world? Lol. The Democrats used partisanship in demolishing him, and yet they are outraged by him when he pointed out their partisanship! That's rich! On that same token - I question the so-called impartiality of the Democrat senators, some of whom had already vilified him - some even had stated that they believe Ford - even well before they heard Kavanaugh's testimony. I question the Democrats' integrity. We saw how these Democrats had blatantly disregarded his right, they ignored due process, and threw away the principle of fairness and presumed innocence. They don't belong in the Senate. I also question the temperament of these Democrats - who based their decisions on emotions, rather than facts! While they are entitled to their opinion - fair or not - they don't, however, belong in the Senate. While there is reasonable basis for Kavanaugh's hurt and outraged response to the allegations against him, there is nothing to warrant whatsoever, the Democrats' reactions towards him! These Democrats don't belong in the Senate.
  4. Now, let's talk about the backlash. Both sides - blue and red - are claiming to be the tsunami come this midterm election. I'm putting my money on the Red tsunami, for these reasons: 1) For all their bravado, the Democrats doesn't really have much going for them. All they did was inflame the anti-Trumps into a frenzy - but they aren't going to vote Republicans anyway, with or without Kavanaugh! 2) The Democrats are counting on the Metoo movement - but women who support Metoo are not really sold on it. Objective MeToo supporters question the way Kavanaugh (and his wife and children along with him), were unfairly and viciously treated......on national tv. Some MeToo supporters could very well see how the Democrats had mocked REAL victims of sexual assault/rape......by making a caricature out of Christine Blasey Ford. As Ford's testimony fell apart, women see too how the Democrats' tactic could now harm real victims of assault/rape. 3) A lot of women see Christine Blasey Ford ill-used by the Democrats! Her request for confidentiality was ignored, she was thrown to the wolves. By whom? The person responsible for leaking her name could only come from either Feinstein, Feinstein's staff, or her own lawyers. 4) That speech by Collins - don't underestimate it. She was eloquently talking to everyone.......especially, to ALL WOMEN! 5) What happened to Kavanaugh sends a chill down everyone's spine. Women - no matter what stripes they wear - have a son, or a husband, or a father, or a brother to protect. Lucky that the Kavanaughs have powerful people to rally behind them. Kavanaugh is an expert on legalities and understands the law. He's rich, too. But what about us ordinary people? Imagine how it will be if your husband is fired from his job - your family's life turned upside down - based simply on an uncorroborated allegation. Condemned. With reputations tattered! Women see their fathers, husbands, sons.....in the shoes of Kavanaugh! I bet, a lot of folks have been talking about this at their dinner table. 6) A big chunk of the APOLITICAL populace must be enraged by the treatment of Kavanaugh. They saw the chilling, utter disregard by the Democrats for men who are falsely accused. They must see a future of a society that puts politics over the principles of fairness, due process, and presumption of innocence. I bet, a lot of folks have been talking about this at their dinner table. Many will want to send a strong message, and many will want to put a stop to this dangerous precedence. 7) What about the men? What do men of all ages think about this? How many men are silently going back to their high school years - maybe even in their kindergarten years - trying to recall whatever they may have done that could haunt them in the future? How many men who'd done stupid things like getting drunk 30 years ago, are sweating bullets right now? 8) The Reps have a powerful weapon to use in their campaign(s) or rallies. They now really have a good reason to demonize the Dems! It will ring true!
  5. Only $1.5 million for Indonesia???  Are you kidding me?

    Why is Trudeau suddenly so miserly when he thinks nothing of squandering $10 million, let alone 4.2 billion, without batting an eyelash?

  6. hahahaha ......now, we have to put up with the endless melt-down! Hahahahaha BushCheney already covered the economy! let me add this: Funny thing about this so-called bumbling idiot: in such a short time, he's already made two huge changes that would last even long after he's gone - he's already installed TWO Supreme Court Justices! There might even be a third one! He's appointed lawmen who will stick to the Constitution - unlike the Democrat appointees , who manipulate and twist the Comstitution to suit their narrative. Speaking of authoritarian - it's the Democrats who's behaving like authoritarians. http://www.claiminghumanrights.org/presumption_innocence.html https://www.wabash.edu/international/uslaws They totally disregarded Kavanaugh's right! Only evil dictators do that!
  7. Because the New Testament is about the Messiah who'd finally come - as was prophesied throughout the Old Testament! The Old Testament gave us the history fromthe very beginning, that we may understand why mankind was in need of a Messiah! The Old Testament is actually about the promise of the coming Messiah. The New Testament is the fulfillment of that promise. Jesus takes from the Old Testament!!! He quoted from it in His teachings! Except for a few things that had become obsolete (due to the coming of the Messiah) - like, sacrificing animals for the atonement of sins - what Jesus did was explain or expand on the Old Testament! As an example: how he explained more about adultery! Who would've thought that just by coveting a woman in your mind, is adultery! That's just your own opinion.....which means diddly squat! What do you understand about the Bible? By the looks of it - based on your own responses - hardly anything!
  8. They're bringing out the big guns!

    HOLLYWOOD!

  9. Argus touts out this retired Judge Stevens' opinion - who could be going senile for all we know - and yet, ignores the clear explanation of Collins! Argus is clutching at anything now....
  10. Those Who Wish Me Dead by Michael Koryta. I'm on a quest looking for an author with similar writing style as John Sandford.....and looks like he comes close. Just started. This is the first book of his that I'm reading. The 2 villains here are really creepy, and so far it's hard to put down. It's really competing with Kavanaugh's and forums!
  11. Now we know why Leland keyser had said she believe Ford. https://www.wsj.com/articles/friend-of-dr-ford-felt-pressure-to-revisit-statement-1538715152?redirect=amp#click=https://t.co/n6dl9rPNMn Monica McLean - isn't she the one named by Ford's ex-boyfriend to have talked to Ford about polygraph tests? Witness-tampering! Good thing this wasn't a criminal investigation, or they'll have a lot to answer for.
  12. Senator Collins socked it to them!

    A must-see!

      I saw a woman protester interviewed yesterday by Marcia McMillan of CTV.  She's a young mom - and quite a naive - because she was bragging that the group heading the protest are professionals (I guess maybe she didn't really know what that means)....... and that if Kavanaugh is confirmed, like something will happen (I assume she meant violence).

      All the loonies are coming out.  Is it full moon today?

  13. This is a surprise! No one expected this kind of speech! Here full written speech here: https://twitter.com/SenatorCollins?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author Right after this speech........Democrat Manchin said he'll vote to confirm Kavanaugh!

    But, scream racial slurs at anyone - and you're arrested!

     

    At least, the employers of this man (a hairdressing salon - Noblestudio101, Toronto), had seen his photo - and he's fired. 

     

    Quote

     

    In a statement posted on Instagram on Wednesday, Noble Studio 101 – a Toronto hair salon – identified the man in the video as Jordan Hunt.

    “It has been brought to our attention that Jordan Hunt has been caught on camera assaulting an innocent bystander at a pro-life rally,” the statement said.

    “We don’t condone his actions and he has been let go. We believe that everyone has a right to an opinion and the right to voice their opinion without fear of physical violence.”

     

     

    Kudos to them.

      According to the story the police showed up a few minutes later and didn't even get out of the car, they downplayed the whole thing telling her it was minor and nothing much would come of it before leaving. They either didn't want to do their jobs or didn't want to for personal reasons. From what's been reported they were extremely negligent to say the least

  16. Deborah Ramirez was interviewed by the FBI.   They contacted the people she claimed to have witnessed her allegation.  Like Ford's witnesses - they all refuted her story too! That's what one of the Reublicans had explained at the press conference an hour ago.

      Why do the Democrats want the FBI to interview Ford AGAIN?  She already told the "truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.". What more was left?

      They wanted the FBI to investigate. They did.

    2. betsy

      betsy

      Yes, why do they have to interview her?   They didn't interview Kavanaugh, either!  Why?  Did she forget to say something?  :D

    3. scribblet

      If not for Senator Feinstein’s egregious mishandling, this investigation could have started 7 weeks ago. Attacking the FBI's valuable efforts because Senate Democrats chose to keep information from them is a mistake.

      Sen.  hatch 

  17. No one's trying to excuse Kavanaugh for sexual assault! There's nothing to excuse....because, there's no sexual assault! The problem with liberal women who excuse men and women who make false accusations, is that they are most likely dishonest themselves - that's why they don't see anything wrong about lying!
  18. CTV says, "Thousands upon thousands protest today....."

    where are they???? 

    Why don't they show them all - like they did with the pink-hat women?

  19. White House Finds No Support in FBI Report for Claims Against Kavanaugh https://www.wsj.com/articles/white-house-finds-no-corroboration-of-sexual-misconduct-allegations-against-kavanaugh-in-fbi-report-1538625927 There you go! Looks like the voting will proceed as early as tomorrow morning.
  20. Democrat Schumer tries to weasel justification why Kavanaugh does not deserve PRESUMPTION OF INNOCENCE! 

    watch how he trips himself!

     

     

      If it's a fact-finding proceeding (and not a criminal trial) - you do not jump into conclusion that an accused is automatically guilty just because somebody accused him of a crime!

    Yes, IF - IF Ford is right, of course....Kavanaugh's credibility is shot.


    But that's the question, isn't it, moron?

    Is Ford right or not?



    The purpose of fact-finding IS TO DETERMINE WHETHER FORD IS RIGHT,
    OR NOT!




    Hey, moron.....until it's determined that she's right (through what you described as, FACT-FINDING) , that means, you don't declare the accused automatically guilty!

    You wait to see the facts!

    See? You're tripped by your own words that this so-called "fact-finding job interview," is nothing but a farce!

    You pathetic, deplorable weasel. You're no better than a con man!
    I hope voters see through these deceptions the Dems try to weave around their supporters.


    BLEEEEEECH! Sorry....I just puked.

      It's this kind of fanatical determination to ignore reality which is going to get the Republicans hammered, both in November and in 2 years. There's no reason why Kavanaugh can't be withdrawn and another conservative nominee put in his place. Continuing to push this guy, despite his pathetic performance in front of the committee, his lying, evasiveness, yelling at the committee, crying and anger management issues, is moronic.

    2. betsy

      betsy

      The video of Schumer is clear.   Don't ignore reality.

  21. They say confirming Kavanaugh could alienate women voters and may cause Trump to lose in the next Presidential election.

    Kavanaugh, if confirmed, will be SC  judge....... for life.

    Trump can only get a maximum of two terms - just another term to go, if he wins.

     

    GO FOR IT, TRUMP!   Get them to CONFIRM Kavanaugh!!!

      The longest wait.    Will he get confirmed, or not?

  22. DEMOCRATS LATCHES ON TO KAVANAUGH'S TEMPERAMENT AS SEXUAL ASSAULT CLAIMS CRUMBLE

    https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/oct/2/brett-kavanaughs-lying-temperament-come-under-atta

     

    That's why we hear a lot of arguments that now try to focus on his "temperament!"  :lol:

      Get this now...

      The creepy porn lawyer Avenatti's new witness is now claiming that she attended "over 20 house parties" where she saw Kavanaugh spiking the punch with Quaaludes.   (how did she know they were Quaaludes)

      So let me get this right...   she saw them spiking the punch with drugs yet still went to 20 parties - and she was best friends  with Ford and  Swetnick.   Who in Gawd’s name are these people?

  23. Leland Keyser refuted Ford's claim to the FBI!

     

    Leland Keyser meets with FBI, doesn't back Blasey Ford's story about Kavanaugh

      Holy molly, did you see the list of pro-Ford who tried to connect with the FBI????   They're all whining that the FBI didn't get back to them.

       

      Why should the FBI do that?   They meant to tie the FBI in knots!  :lol:

       

       

  24. FBI investigations' expected to wrap up today.......but, Ford hasn't been interviewed by the FBI......yet. Just refer solely to that hearing statement? Hmmmmmm. No given chances of making any corrections, eh? Perjury seems to be loooming up, closer and closer.
  25. he asks - how is this relevant! hahahahahaha Hahahahaha
