    The anonymous accuser accused Brett and his friend of locking her in a room in which she was able to get out of on her own.

    She never accused Brett of sexual misconduct.

    This is nothing but a "high-tech lynching."

    Why ever have a hearing if it's decided on party lines with no regard to a review of the person or their record? Maybe because it matters, it's a lifetime appointment, and maybe a better judge could be nominated if the first one is vetted and rejected.

    You don't get what the word means then. Republicans are more authoritarian on social policy.

    I do, and progressives seek to move us towards it.

    High ideals that ignores the reality of a two party system. So again unless Garland had a chance of getting the required votes then nothing was stolen. For the record he could not get the votes.

    The Democrats want to force people to obtain permits and pay taxes before they can exercise their rights at the most basic level.
    Authoritarian? Get me that pen and phone!

    I gave examples: Drug prohibition and gay marriage. So no, not everything. I think in recent years there has been a move towards more authoritarianism on the left and less on the right regarding free speech, but still.

    Well, lets's think about that a bit.
    Blue states have extremely high taxes to pay for their liberal policies with respect to everything and everybody not self reliant.
    Prior to the Trump tax cuts, state income taxes were deductible from Federal income taxes reducing the amount the Fed received from high tax states.
    Now, with the tax cuts in place, these high tax states taxpayers will finally be required to contribute "their fair share" to the Federal pot.
    Shoe, meet other foot.

    Makes you wonder what they could get done if they'd work this hard on doing their actual jobs.

    This is hilarious.

    Some lady can make up some claim and we are supposed to take it seriously?

    Its pathetic is what it is.

    I'm surprised Maxine Waters didn't think of it first.

    And Feinstein had a Chinese chauffeur for 20 years who turned out to be a Chinese SPY. Did she know? And her husband just got the BILLION contract in California to build the high speed train system. Did she pull strings to get hubby the job? The woman is senile...

    Dems are NO choirboys. They are angry, bitter and childish. They lie and smear on a daily basis and then pretend to be Spartacus. What a joke they are!

    Only if those in charge refuse to respect the right to self-determination of others like King George III and Lincoln.

    FBI Yawns at Democrat Dianne Feinstein's Pathetic Smear of Brett Kavanaugh

    Hey, Dianne, If Your Secret Letter That Could Clip Kavanaugh Was Serious, Why Did You Wait So Long To Contact The FBI?

    Sixty-Five Women Who Went to High School With Brett Kavanaugh Write Their Own Letter About His Character
    https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katie...ol-with-kavanaugh-back-his-character-n2519010




    Its not turning out like the Chinese Compromised Demo, Diane Feinstein thought. Kavanaugh will be confirmed. Trump and Repubs get a bump going into the Midterm.

    Nothing the Demos can do about it. [​IMG]
