The vote will be this week. That's what I meant by shortly afterward. BTW, the committee handed it over to the Senate days ago.

They all knew this was going to happen. They all knew that this was a lie from the jump.

They wanted an "investigation" hoping that they could find something else, and so far they have nothing...even the New York Times ran an editorial about Kavanaugh throwing ice at someone in a bar in 1985...I guess this was their key piece of evidence that he didn't have the "temperment" for the job 35 years later

Thank God Trump limited the scope of the investigation or there would have been endless Senate debates about Kavanaugh stealing the cherry off of his sister's ice cream sundae when he was 5

They weren't expecting anything and they knew it...the man went through 6 previous FBI background checks...the latest one was this year when he was being vetted.

He lied about terms like Dev*l's Triangle.

Kavanaugh said under OATH that he first learned of Ramirez's allegations in the New Yorker yet the FBI has text messages that shows he was in contact with her friends to support him.

He referred to himself and friends as obnoxious drunks in 1983.

His credibility is gone. But what do we expect if Trump picked him?
If you backed Trump or Hillary or Obama or Romney, you don't care one iota about someone lying.

I think it's funny that many of you appear concerned about his temperment, and that he committed perjury.

Meanwhile, Feinstein's lack of ethics does warrant any attention. Ellison's accuser is not believed.

He showed his TRUE nature in that rant. He was nasty, childish, had no self control, and felt it necessary to attack everyone who was simply trying to get at the truth. The REAL Kavanaugh came out in that interview, and it was not someone who should decided the fate of millions of Americans for the rest of his life.

What we got was a glimpse of the entitled, arrogant man who was the same way when he was a teen.....probably more so, especially when boozed up.
Uh huh


When you , like him, are accused for something that you didn't do and you can see that you could lose everything important to you because of it, let us know so we can watch.

It's quite an understatement to say being accused of sexual assaults you didn't commit, having your entire reputation destroyed via a smear campaign, and seeing your family devastated by venomous hate Mai from liberals is an example of "things not going your way."

This has literally turned into this conversation:

Dems: "YOU said you had 1 beer at a party in 1982, you were 17 right????..


Kavanaugh: "That's right"

But NOW your friend is saying that you had 2 BEERS!!!!... that's PERJURY ya know!!!" "You aren't fit to be a SCOTUS...after all, it's the PRINCIPLE of the matter...STEP DOWN NOW!!!"
Yeah, because that's what's going on. It wasn't beer anyway. It was red,red,whine.

NY Times obtained 1983 Brett Kavanaugh letter to his friends: "t would probably be a good idea on Sat. the 18th to warn the neighbors that we’re loud, obnoxious drunks with prolific pukers among us. Advise them to go about 30 miles if…”

Kavanaugh signed it “FFFFF, Bart,” the name used in the Mark Judge book.
