      Presumably once Dems take the House in the midterms they will launch 100 investigations into different things, and Kavanaugh will be one of them, with a view to eventually impeaching the guy and removing him from the court for his various crimes.

      Until then, what exactly is there that's new to talk about?
      "I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump
      "Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism" - George Orwell
      "[Capitalism] as it exists today is, in my opinion, the real source of evils. I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy" - Albert Einstein

          The ignorant "hang em high" crowd takes those statements and perverts them into "the White House limited us"!

            People wishing to justify an action can paint it however they want. The fact is witnesses that claimed to have relevant information were 'passed over'. Given that all potentially relevant testimony was not part of the investigation, it is possible the conclusion of the investigation would have been different had the investigators been allowed to interview those people. Given the Trump administration would want to be assured nothing interfered with the Kavanaugh nomination, them directing the FBI to limit the investigation and ignore testimony from people that claimed to have meaningful information is a clear conflict of interest - at best.

            My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

            If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

            This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

              Are you saying that Trump told the FBI who to interview or not? Do you have any evidence of this?

                In light of the porn star lawyer flat out LYING about his own client's testimony, it's no wonder the FBI didn't go chasing down every possible source of gossip and wild accusation.

                Jeff Flake offered, and the Democrats accepted, a limited investigation - it's right there in the "proof" (cough, sputter) that Tass offered....

                  Such investigations, like the earlier one, would be seen as primarily motivated by politics. There is no statute of limitations in Maryland for assault with intent to rape, so if this were truly a legitimate claim there's no reason to wait to press charges. Even a Supreme Court Justice is not above the law.

                    • Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh is declining to accept the more than half a million dollars raised in a Go Fund Me campaign during his bruising confirmation hearings, citing ethical concerns. But the North Carolina man who started the effort said the money would go to three Catholic youth programs that Kavanaugh has supported in the past.

                            I believe there are criminal referrals in the works... hadn't heard much on that lately. I do believe there needs to be some consequences.

                              Agreed.

                              There's of course a difference between an accusation that can't be proved and an accusation that is definitely false. I don't want women to be afraid to come forward to report actual incidents, but if there's indisputable evidence it was made up, that's a different story.

I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

                                And how many times just in this thread were we solemnly informed that for all practical purposes this sort of stuff doesn't happen and we should always default to automatically believing the accuser?
