Give it a rest. Just because an 85 year old Senator thinks that her attorney hasn't responded to a couple recent phone calls made hours earlier doesn't mean she isn't responding.

In the meantime, Susan Collins has already proposed a format that's completely different than what Grassley outlined, so it's not surprising that her attorney is being deliberate. Note that she's a private citizen on a different coast who's being asked to provide a public victims account on national TV... I don't think it's unusual to take some before agreeing to logistical details. Most depositions I'm involved with take months to schedule, and her appearance is requested in 5 business days.

You obviously have an agenda. Drop it and let the process work.


She could request a closed-door hearing then, if that is her concern.


Huh? That would defeat the purpose of her letter.


Purpose of her letter? You mean - to delay and derail this nominee’s appointment. Yep.


Indeed, that was her purpose. To publicly show his character. Not to do it in a closed-door hearing.


We have publicly seen his character. For over 30 hours spanning several days of hearings.
If she wants to be heard - let her be heard by the committee.

I have been rebutting a lot of the crap written on here.... so you are probably talking about me, for one.
I can assure you that I am not a Republican staffer and I actually live no where near DC.


Great, take your false information to your local site, and let the grown ups talk. We can access Fox without your help.

Unlike the other 85 year old Senator who knew these allegations for around six weeks and interviewed the "assailant" and never even asked him about it.

Who cares whether Feinstein asked him it. Irrelevant. Go back to your yardwork and let the real lawyers weigh in.


It’s absolutely relevant. She sat on this information for months, and now wants a full blown FBI investigation.
Tell me she isn’t trying to delay. It won’t work.

Agreed.

Feinstein's motivations don't really matter. There's now a credible witness that has appeared, and there's no reason for the matter not to be vetted. Time is not of the essence here. Flake and Collins agree, so it's irrelevant. Back to the point: there's nothing unusual about a Congressional witness not having their counsel return phone calls hours after they occur. Your hit job is failing. Please go to the bullpen and bring in someone better at this.

Yeah, that didn’t go so well for him. He seems allergic to telling the truth. Exactly why her corroborating witnesses should be heard. No innocent person would not want them cross-examined.

All members of the Judiciary Committee will have that opportunity. If Collins has her way, Kavanaugh's attorney will also get the chance.

The fact that the republicans are absolutely terrified of even the most basic of investigations, i.e., calling additional witnesses, makes abundant clear they know Kavanaugh did it.

BTW, don’t worry about delay, Trump told us that just yesterday.


I am actually not at all worried about this hearing. I would LOVE for this woman to appear.
I have no doubt that Kavanaugh is totally innocent of these allegations. Innocent.
The fact that Feinstein sat on this for months tells me she has questions about the veracity of the claim.
And, my understanding is that she sent the information to the FBI with the name redacted. So, how would she expect the FBI to investigate this claim? And, it also makes me believe that the name was leaked on the Democratic side of the aisle since the Republicans knew nothing about these allegations.

Why all the concern about delay? Trump said take the time needed, as did several Republican Senators. Absolutely no reason not to do this right, amd if I was Kavanaugh and wanted to clear my name I would present every witness relevant to that, amd want her witnesses cross-examined. Only a Guilty person would want to short circuit the process.

Nice try attempting to brush off the delay tactics by Feinstein. We see this whole episode for what it is.
All the other attempts at derailing this nominee failed... so out of that back pocket they pull the #MeToo card.

I believe the FBI knows how to pick up a telephone and call her office to request the name. In any case, this is moot, we all know her name.

Feinstein sat on it because Ford requested confidentiality. No conspiracy here. She went public once press started hounding her and it because clear her identity was going to leak.

Also quite telling that you refer to her as "this woman," similar to another entitled male harasser from 20 years ago.

Why don't you tell us what this episode is then? Elaborate plan by the libtards to get Amy Coney Barrett onto the court instead?
