    Notice how Guiss has no comment on Biden videos / comments when the Republicans are using his own words and actions as they did years ago. Democrats set the precedent, and now they are crying that it's being used against them..

    Nope. You're just gonna have to grin and bear it. The good news is, you too get to share in the benefits of President Trump's BOOMING economy, his historically low jobless rates, his skyrocketing stock market, his conservative Supreme Court appointments, his historic tax cuts & regulatory reform, his cutting of corporate tax rates and repatriation of corporate dollars from overseas, his reversal of Obama's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, his recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital, his restoration of America's relationship with Israel, his virtual elimination of the radical Islamic state's physical caliphate, his withdrawal from the ridiculous Paris Climate Accord Agreement, his surprisingly tough line with Russia --including his imposition of economic sanctions-- his enforcement of Obama's "red line" against Syria's use of chemical weapons, his cancellation and renegotiation of old trade deals that were horrible for this country, his removal of the Obamacare mandate, his rollback of absurd EPA regulations, his freeing of American hostages from North Korea without giving dictators money, his cancellation of the horrific Iran Nuclear deal, his gutting and restructuring of the corrupt FBI & Intelligence community reporting to the Justice Department, etc.......

    I could go on and on. But the good news is, even YOU get the benefit of all these improvements.

    NOT true. The difference is, the Republicans controlled the House and the Senate when Obama nominated Merrick Garland, and had the right to delay the vote because of that control. Today, the Dummycrats DO NOT control either the House or the Senate, so are powerless to stop it.

    Avenatti got duped today. LOL! Did you hear about that? He was set up by the Republicans, and took the bait hook, line and sinker. Avenatti had to cancel his press conference today when he found out his latest "witness" was fake, and wasn't going to show up for his press conference.

    But I'm curious. Just how would this "investigation" start once the local police are brought in to investigate? Who would they interview? What are they going to investigate? She has no recollection of time, place, attendees, witnesses, etc.... According to her own statement, Ford doesn't even know who's house and at who's party this event supposedly happened at. And the only alleged witnesses in attendance say it didn't happen.
    You aren’t very smart. The FBI does do background checks and that is exactly what this is. No one is saying this is a crime.

    They’ve already done several background checks on Kavanaugh through the years as he has progressed through the judicial system, including one for this nomination. Feinstein sent Ford’s letter to the FBI, they saw no reason to pursue it.

    There have been SIX FBI investigations of Kavanaugh over the years. All SIX of those conducted after the alleged incident.

    But, okay, just for laughs...

    How would the FBI conduct such an investigation? Er, Dr. Ford, where did this take place? Ford: ummm, somewhere in Maryland. FBI: Well, can you narrow it down a bit? Ford: it was in a, ummm…, a house...somewhere.

    Witnesses! That's the ticket! Guess the FBI can post on their Facebook page a call for "witnesses." But, the 'craps, her attorney(s) have already done that in hopes of finding someone, anyone! who would lie in support of Ford's "story." Nothing...

    So, that's a no? If it is all blowback from Garland, that seems to indicate that the accusations are merely political strategy. That's certainly how I see them. I am not against an FBI investigation provided it takes place in a timely manner, but again, I don't see how anything could possibly come from the investigation that would either clear Kavanaugh in the eyes of his opposition OR disqualify him (in any but the most partisan eyes).

    So, it's just as I thought, this is a delay tactic. If it's just a delay tactic, then none of them will want to testify anytime soon.

    Re: Travesty unfolding in Kavanaugh Hearing

    Now, Ms. Ford has friends willing to sign affidavits setting that she told them about the incident years ago. Can’t really refute the fact that she told them something. It doesn’t prove that she did tell them anything. Sorry d80, no time to travel option to go back and verify.

    Actually it doesn’t mean the accusations are merely political strategy, but it means the Democrats are going to use them politically. Again, there are at least three different motivations at play here as it pertains to Ford’s accusations, and they may not be the same - the motivations of Ford, the motivations of Feinstein, and the motivation of the leaker.
