Kavanaugh vote postponed. Judiciary Committee hearing on Sexual Assault complain Monday.

50 years. That would put us back at 1968 ladies. Sound good? We can watch Archie bunker and those fab Anita Hill hearings all over again.

This all sets a very dangerous precedent. You don’t like a nominee? Scream #MeToo. You don’t like a pick for an administration position? Scream #MeToo.
I hope he does not withdraw because all the liberals here would say, “See, guilty as charged.” He needs to fight these charges. These women should be charged for making false allegations.

Ronan Farrow has destroyed his reputation with this poorly sourced story. Avenatti was slimy to begin with. This only makes him less credible, which is a good thing.

It is all sketchy. And, it will be interesting to see if Dr. Ford appears on Thursday. It is clear now that this was a delay tactic.

This 100%.

Charge the women? Yeah, good luck with that.

Stacy Washington is reporting that her FB posts are being dug up (internet is forever folks) and In March of 2017, Christine Blasey Ford posted on Facebook that someone needed to come forward an accuse Gorsuch of rape to derail his SCOTUS nomination. She further said such accusations should continue until Trump nominates Merrick Garland

This appears to be fake news. Unless you have better sourcing, Stacy Washington's Twitter feed simply shows her retweeting a meme from other person who appears to have deleted the original tweet. The meme doesn't even show a Facebook post, but simply makes the claim.

Give it time.

"We found classmates had been talking about this for weeks and months since July. There'd been an email chain of Yale classmates of Kavanaugh talking about will this thing come out? long before Christine Blasey Ford came forward"

I can see charging someone with slander for false accusations.

He is essentially O’Bannon from Dazed and Confused.

He has not admitted this in the context of his hearings, he has denied that the sky is blue when he could have just said, poor judgement, youthful indiscretions, yada, yada, yada.

All I can say as a woman of his generation is that he is clearly one of those frat boys that give frat boys a bad name. The ones your girlfriends warned you not to let them corner you at a party.

The fact that he has excellent legal credentials for the far right crowd does not mean that his moral compass doesn’t matter. It should matter to them too.

It is exactly this sort of reasoning that decided the Duke Lacrosse men were guilty. Because of sort those types of guys are guilty, we all know their type.

Not them, not what they did or did not do. But our perception of their type.

You don't decide guilt or innocence based on stereotypes. You decide it based on facts.

There's not a little bit of irony with Kavanaugh being a protege of Ken Starr. Live by the sex scandal, die by the sex scandal.

IF this is true, and that is a big IF, she should be investigated and if she did, should be fired. Feinstein should be investigated as well.

https://www.dailywire.com/news/36228/name-emerges-feinstein-staffer-thought-have-leaked-ryan-saavedra

A staff member for Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) is thought to have been responsible for leaking Christie Blasey Ford's allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, according to a Washington insider.

In a tweet, The Federalist's Sean Davis wrote that "according to multiple sources familiar with Judiciary's Kavanaugh investigation, Feinstein staffer Heather Sawyer leaked Ford’s letter to the media in violation of Senate Rule 29(5)."

Come on. Everyone is leaking.

Did you see that the unredacted letter from Ford was released by Grassley? Did you read the cover letter?

Keep digging, Brett. This will end in divorce or worse. I think he’s vile but is also totally delusional- his life seems unusually status-dependent, and if he continues to live in denial, he won’t have any support from anywhere that matters.

And Kozinski.

I know from experience that you don't get to pick your first mentor. But you don't have to stay with them if they're not the right mentor.

But this isn't deciding whether or not he should go to jail, this is deciding whether or not he has the moral character and rigteousness to warrant a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court. I say, if there is even a whiff of someone being a douchey frat boy, the answer is a resounding NO.

Takes one to know one. BK probably felt very confident going after BC.

Can we just dispense with the scum and get some dull public servants in govt? Party away but find a different career please

This could get interesting if she produces the email chain.

Yes, you decide based on facts, such as the facts that were uncovered during the Duke investigation which exonerated the boys. Such as the investigation Ford is requesting.
