Hmmm The left did it's best to delay the vote. They even accused Kavanaugh of sexual assault without a shred of evidence. After intentionally delaying presenting the accuser. Pretty low.

I would say a quick vote is exactly what the dems have coming.
That said I hope Kavanaugh is not selected. There is a female judge that seems pretty impressive. I believe she was the plan B for the right.
I have to wonder though. Who will the left accuse her of raping? Her sophomore HS science teacher?

Beat me to it, she went against the republican leadership in what she knew was a losing battle. It didn’t take courage to toe the party line.

You mean they support Kavanaugh but there is a time limit on that support???
If they had to wait until Tuesday their consciences might kick in and they would realize what a creep he is and decide to vote NO?
That is really a strong support group then...really built on principles...

I hope he nominates Ann Coulter when RBG has no EKG.

That would be true, if it was just the President making the appointment and done.
But here, he had 100 jurors, prosecutors, and judges, called Senators. He was on trial in the court of public opinion.


This was no job interview. It was a baseless lynching.

She’s very gullible whenever she makes a decision. Remember when the Repub leadership promised her that they would protect ACA for her state, and then they stabbed her in the back? The same will happen again when the lying white jackal Kavanaugh promised her that he would rule by stare decisis. Mark my words- white jackals don’t change. He will lie and lie and lie to win at any costs like most of his ilk.

Excuse me, I was driving an oil train. You know earning a living so my tax dollars can be spent feeding deadbeats. Just saw the late news. No radios allowed or phones allowed while on duty.

Heads up to anyone on this thread. Mitch McConnell will be on The Ingraham Angle exclusively on Fox. Show's on for another half hour but I have no idea which segment he'll be on so tune in now!

Again, someone not a liberal is trying to speak for liberals. It's stupid when anyone does it no matter what side they're on. It only shows their own bias and misunderstanding of what they're talking about. Here's what I hate. I hate that this man showed us who he is, a partisan liar who can't handle criticism. If you or I acted like the spoiled brat he portrayed, we'd still be looking for a job.
