Gee...I wonder why Ford is now RUNNING AWAY from the Senate hearing...even if it's in PRIVATE.

She knows the bullcrap will come tumbling down around her ears, if she is questioned by ANYONE other than the DNC Manufactured Outrage While Ignoring Keith Ellison's Beaten Ex-Girlfriend Crusade....

Now here attorney has done a COMPLETE ABOUT FACE, from his client (Ford) was " ready to defend her allegation under oath", to "she won't testify until after an FBII investigation"...which is, of course NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.


Another DNC-funded Liespeak Smear Campaign EXPOSED....






Feinstein on Kavanaugh Accusation: ‘I Can’t Say Everything is Truthful’


Senator Dianne Feinstein of California conceded Tuesday that she can’t attest to the veracity of Christine Blasey Ford’s allegation that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her when they were in high school.

“[Ford] is a woman that has been, I think, profoundly impacted. On this . . . I can’t say that everything is truthful. I don’t know,” Feinstein told reporters on Capitol Hill when asked if she believed the allegation.

Feinstein, the ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, has been maligned by her Republican colleagues for failing to disclose the sexual-harassment accusation after initially being made aware of it via a letter from Ford in July.
~
Judiciary Committee chairman Chuck Grassley has scheduled a public hearing for Monday and invited Kavanaugh and his accuser to testify. Kavanaugh has accepted the invitation while Ford has been unresponsive, despite her attorney’s previous statement that she would be willing to defend her allegation under oath.

Grassley indicated Thursday morning that he would cancel the hearing if Ford were to refuse to testify and a number of fellow Republicans, including Senator Jeff Flake of Arizona, have said they would support Kavanaugh’s confirmation if his accuser won’t testify.~

Well, seeing as how Feinstein wasn’t there at the time of the alleged incident how COULD she say if everything was truthful?

I haven't seen a topic take over the forum like this Kavanaugh debacle in a long time.

Agreed. And I seem to have been sucked into it myself, which is weird because I don’t even know who I believe. I also wasn’t all that interest in the nomination until this story popped up. Something about it keeps sucking me in, though.

It got interesting when they actually delayed the vote, imo.

'Cause that surprised me. I did not expect that.
 
Um, the New York op-ed piece,

oh yeah, there was a lot of speculation around the author of that. I still feel like the Kavanaugh threads are more numerous.

I would say it's karmic in light of what McConnel did to Garland but, I'm not given to fancy. It would be nice but in order for it to actually be a cosmic force of balance at work here, the Democrats would have to retake the Senate and leverage their power to get a pro-choice pick.

Truth was irrelevant from the beginning. This was entirely, transparently, orchestrated by Feinstein and staff to delay the confirmation, as if they could pull something to change the game out of their collective butts to change the inevitable results with some additional time. Yes, she wasn't there, but more pertinent, it was always a false accusation. It isn't an issue of "I Can’t Say Everything is Truthful" but one of "I Can’t Say Anything is Truthful."

It's the kind of desperate move from an aging rock star who was never really a rock star. That glam thing was a glamour in its original meaning, an illusion created by pixies.

What did McConnel "do to Garland"?

Block his nomination until after an IMPENDING PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION?

You mean the EXACT SAME THING the Democrats did as soon as they took power in 2007, NINETEEN MONTHS before the 2008 presidential election?

Like that?


KAGAN WAS SEATED THE OCTOBER before the 2010 MIDTERMS, wasn't she?



MIDTERMS =/= PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS...but, of course, expecting HONESTY from democrats in this matter , and a bus token, will get you a ride downtown....

EXACTLY. It was a completely CONTRIVED PILE OF LIES...Duke Lacrosse REDUX..except from 36 years ago.

And I love the "No One Can Dare Question Her (Ford's) Story" bull****, too...

Ford is BAILING on defending her dubious at best, accusations....not surprisingly.

The demand for an FBI investigation is the Big Excuse, and when she DOESN'T SHOW, it will be that "she wasn't given a chance to speak "....IOW..more Clown Show nonsense..

That is Feinstein's point after all. People who believe Ford and people who don't will both answer the way she did: "I can’t say that everything is truthful. I don’t know."

That or leave a seat vacant for two more years.

Nonsense. This is MAJOR WALK BACK, coinciding with Ford's "sudden" decision to NOT go before the Senate Judiciary Committee, even behind closed doors, because she learned that SHE MIGHT ACTUALLY BE ASKED SOME QUESTIONS...the entire SMEAR CAMPAIGN is standing on feet of clay....and it's already starting to tumble over...

So many CAPS and CLAIMS,so little SUBSTANCE or EVIDENCE to PROVE those CLAIMS.

And there is the Default DP LEFT DEFAULT RESPONSE; try to RUN FROM THE EMBARRASSING (for the left) points made, and comment on FONT and CAPS...AGAIN.



It's like a Pathetic Pandemic amongst the UTTERLY INCAPABLE of ADRESSING THE POINTS, DP Left.

I'm sure no one noticed your ABJECT INABILITY to actually comment on the content of the post you are so "upset/triggered" over the "style" of. :lamo


Please keep it up...it's HILARIOUSLY PREDICTABLE... it's like Alinsky Has Risen From the Grave...at DP...

Howza bout you start by PROVING all of the CLAIMS in your OP ?..That's kinda what these forums are designed for. Pssst.'triggered' folks are the ones who use the CAPS in every post like a megaphone,as if that makes their 'opinions' any more valid. :Oopsie

In two short years is the next presidential election. We should wait to let the American people can voice their opinion before we approve any more Supreme Court nominees.

If a year before an election was soon enough to block all nominations, who's to say 2 years isn't as well. According to the GOP, this is the new standard.

The opinions of the American people were never taken into consideration before when a supreme seat was filled, why now?

Most American people wouldn't know one justice compared to another at any given time, before or after an appointment.

Many wanted to lynch Thurgood Marshal before he was confirmed, and more after he was confirmed

How could anyone assume this last second unsupported accusation by a Trump hating democrat has any merit whatsoever?
 
Frankly I have no faith whatsoever in that geriatric crowd in the middle of the Senate Judiciary Panel. They are all a screaming disaster of age induced decay...every one of them from Grassley and Hatch on one side to Feinstein and Leahy on the other. These Senate panels are run by staff. Funny how the Right moans and groans about the DEEEEP STAAAATE while willingly allowing a bunch of crusty old fools to sit there like stumps while their staffs actually run things. Then you get to Cornyn and Durbin who take full advantage of the circumstance that nobody in the middle of the panel is actually awake! Past those 6 Senators, you actually find Senators that might be worth the time of day.
 
Agreed. And I seem to have been sucked into it myself, which is weird because I don’t even know who I believe. I also wasn’t all that interest in the nomination until this story popped up. Something about it keeps sucking me in, though.

I think of this as youthful indiscretion [at most] on both their parts. Knowing it's being used as a stalling tactic by the Left only makes me think that more.
