Watching the Dog and Pony Show

Every member of the committee that supported this nonsense deserves to be flogged in public. And I'm being generous. I think they should get worse.
The entire process exemplifies how deep the swamp in DC is and the opposition Trump has faced on a daily basis from both parties. It's embarrassing.

So here's a thought...

Say that everything she's saying is true. It's not even admissible in court due to statute of limitations, but she thinks she can derail a SCOTUS nomination with it?

Listening to the two faced BS going on; apparently she can.

This country is fucked.

As we used to say in the 60's, "Come the revolution...".

Mr. Grassley, get you war face on; this shit has become intolerable. "Ladies and Gentlemen, this hearing is now closed. We meet again on Friday to cast votes, and nothing else.".

But, nooooo.....

If this isn't a wake up call about the 'guilty until proven innocent' shit with anyone that makes any kind of sexual allegation against you, I don't know what is.

The penalty for lying about it should be the penalty for being guilty of it.

And seriously, if you're going to bring shit up 20+ years later, have an IQ over 70 and have some actual fucking proof.

That's how the old Mosaic law worked.
It would sure make people think twice about being false witnesses

That's the problem now.... no consequences for lying about someone & trying to ruin their lives...
No consequences either for those that pay for, promote & coach people to lie for their own political gain.
 
He called it as it was. Go choke yourself on a tampon.
I'll give Kavanaugh the benefit of the doubt but he's not someone I would tie myself to a cross for. If (and this is a gigantic if) evidence shows he did participate in gang rapes amd sexual assault ( I personally believe he didn't) then Lindsay Graham is on record vehmently defending a despicable kind of person. That's a big risk to take and I would have expected that from TX-R Cornyn who's been friends with Kavanaugh for a while (as per the confirmation hearing last month) and not from someone who barely knows Kavanaugh (as per the confirmation last month).

I say move on, there are better candidates for the Supreme Court. We could go even more Constitutionalist than Kavanaugh for sure.
 
Did you expect anything different?

Not in the least. I'm just mortified by what we must look like to the rest of the world, and the function of this spectacle to confirm my worst understanding of the caliber of some of the men and women who represent our political subdivisions in the Senate. Where once I considered our polarization with chagrin, I now stand at my end proudly on the other side of a line drawn in our sand.

That's not really the point... Pick somebody you think would be good to nominate then....
Bet you the Democrats will have some pack of lies and distortions about them whipped up nearly as soon as their name is officially mentioned..
They even have attack campaigns lined up and primed against others on Trump's short list...

You won't find anybody "conservative" that won't be subjected to the worst possible lies and character assassination by the Communists...

Well one thing's for sure.

Maybe the Conservatives haven't caved, but you sure have. You don't personally believe he's guilty but you're kicking him to the curb anyway.

I guess this government business is just to messy for you.

Wow, there is a whole lotta wrong in your post. So, for my own edification, Lindsay is supporting Kavanaugh when there is no evidence of guilt BUT if opinion is that Kavanaugh is guilty then Lindsay is equally as bad?

Also, how do you know that moving on from Kavanaugh would have a different outcome? You do understand that this has nothing to do with Kavanugh, right?

I live in TX and Cornyn is a pussy and our version of McCain, as far as I am concerned. In all the years I have lived in TX the ONLY time I hear Corntn's name is during an election.
 
So I just got back from the indoor range . My 11yr old boy begged to go "I'll just watch " . First time on a pistol , 9mm in the 10 on a silhouette. Boy's happy . I'm happy . Then we come home to the hearings on the the tube . Wife says she's saying rape and that he and buddy took turns now . What in the motherfuckers gonna cause alot of American blood to spill do they fuckin think they're doin . Every elected official that is supporting this shit should be told to their greedy evil fuck8n faces . " This shit right hete is why you will end up chokin on your own blood as yoluo draw your last ragged breath in tears. . Even Resist.org and byanymeans necessary are backpedaling on their statements that there will be no Trump SCOTUS appointments . Yet the Dems keep pushing without care of repercussion.
LEGOWI ! Buy more ammo .

I hear Cornyn's name a few times a month, usually in close proximity to 'piece of shit', 'worthless', etc.

These damned communists...

You obviously don't get it, do you? This isn't and never was about his supposed shenanigans as a teenager or college student. And by the way, Ford's accusations don't even come close to rape, much less gang rape, by her own testimony. This is, and always has been, about delaying the confirmation until after the mid-terms. The smoke and mirrors and red herrings are all about that and have been since the beginning of this charade. Ford is being used and abused by her own party for the simple and single purpose of delay, maybe willingly so. Other than the travesty that is being paraded in front of the American people as "justice being served", this is truly nothing more than the worst partisan politics that has been imagined up until this time.

If you don't see that, then God have mercy upon your soul.
 
The job I was working today had a T.V. within hearing distance. I cranked up the volume and listened in as much as my created noise level would allow. Best part of the whole circus was was when Feinstein started asking questions. The Judge handed her her ass!!

After that the Sawzall drowned out all the stupid Demmy questions.

He did very well there. I also liked the part toward the end where Shitstain took a personal privilege to clarify that she didn't leak the letter. I enjoyed watching her squirm, and want to see more of it.
 
Today was an insult to anyone that stands for this country, has fought for this country, died for this country. It’s an embarassment to us on a world scale and most of all makes us look super weak. The government has lost all real control due to their own lack of spine. The republic is lost. There is no getting it back. It may not fall into complete peril today or tomorrow but it is coming! My oldest daughters generation, she is 4, is going to have super tough times ahead. There is no doubt about that. As AJ says, stock up on Ammo, train, band common thinking people together, gather supplies. You are going to need them.
 
A not so funny but 100% true story that happened to someone I know.

A couple of years ago an uninvited girl was kicked out of a college house party, she then called the police and claimed she was raped by two of the students. The police did their thing, hospital rape kit, bed sheets to the lab etc.

Needless to say the guys who were renting the house were shitting.

A few days later she claims that she was indeed raped but it happened elsewhere not at the house party.
and by her drinking alcohol it had some reaction with her prescribed meds that caused her to be confused.

Now go question her 25 years from now and see what you get.

I can not envision a situation where Judge Kavanaugh would ask you to tie yourself to the cross. When confirmed I hope he will keep me (a gun owner) off a few leftist crosses.

Yes, there are plenty of other great candidates out there but that’s not what this is about. If this kind of nonsense is not stopped now then it sets a very very dangerous precedent on many levels, the least of which is having someone completely castrated for false unsubstantiated accusations. I won’t even get into the level of how fucked up this makes our government. As I said in an earlier statement, they have lost all control. The republic is lost. We have to make our stand somewhere. Many have taken the oath to defend this country against all enemies, foreign and domestic and many of us are failing miserably at protecting it from itself. This is getting out of hand.

I think it may start when the person recalls it... like other states with respect to childhood incidents.

Statute of Limitations

Criminal Cases for Sexual Abuse
Criminal cases are filed by the State of Maryland on behalf of a victim. In order to file criminal charges, you must notify law enforcement of the sexual abuse. The authorities will investigate your claims and a prosecutor may file charges against your abuser. If a suspect is found guilty of criminal conduct, he or she may be sentenced to significant jail time and sex offender registration.
In Maryland, the criminal statute of limitations varies depending on the severity of the offense. The criminal statutes of limitations include:
  • Felony sexual offenses: no statute of limitations, and
  • Misdemeanor offenses: one year from the event.
