You are the one who brought it up.

Oh wait--that was someone else, but they did let that pervert into the WH.
Go backstage at any beauty pageant or dance recital, and you'll see the same thing: contestants and participants changing clothes, doing their hair and makeup, etc. I know. Recital Mom for about 10 years. BIG recital. 5 hours long, so required an intermission. In such huge demand that there were two performances (Saturday night, Sunday matinee), and each family could only buy a limited number of tickets.

You mean like Ann Coulter, Tomi Lahren and Laura Ingraham?

They are balls of repressed anger that ooze hostility, nastiness and meanness. And they actually do hurl epithets!

No thanks. They appear to be extremely unhappy.

And we sure don't wear pink hats.

There are articles by people who lived with Bret Kavanaugh for years, who contacted the FBI, but who the WH did not allow to be questioned.

Trump is a liar and this 'investigation' was a total sham--that is quite clear.

In any event, I do hope they go ahead and confirm this lying, biased conspiracy theorist. It will be the best thing for the Dems. The blue wave will be pretty much guaranteed, and once the Dems get the House, Trump will discover what Obama's life was like with a hostile House and many angry voters. Not fun. He'll probably freak out as we know he does not handle pressure well and has massive tantrums when he does not get his own way.

They should confirm Kavanaugh, watch the volcanic electorate reaction, and then let's get on with the midterms!
They questioned 10 people in all.

No. They’re saying the scope of the investigation was relegated to specific witnesses that could only reaffirm the narrative supporting Kavanaugh’s innocence. And that additional witnesses named by Ford and Remerez were ducked by FBI investigators at the WH’s direction. The parameters of the supplemental investigation were commissioned by the client - The White House.

Perhaps it’s a stall tactic, that’s probably (most likely) true too, but they’re not saying the FBI is corrupt.

A: Diane Feinstein's office hasn't leaked it yet.
Let me see, it took years and years to investigate one incident (Bengahzi) that happened not too long ago.

It took less than four days to investigate two incidents that happened decades ago.

You look at the math, it doesn't add up.

And when things don't add up, it's usually good news for the Republicans.

They didn't question Ford or Kavanaugh. That would be like the police not interrogating a murder suspect, wouldn't it?

I think if your family was intruded upon and interrogated, if everyone you knew was being watched and recorded, if you felt like you were in an episode of "Twilight Zone" if your whole life was turned upside down for something which may or may not✔ have happened thirty, 30, THREE DECADES ago, I think your feathers might become somewhat ruffled. I know mine would.
