Sen. Jeff Flake just said he would vote to move Judge Brett Kavanaugh out of the Judiciary Committee and to the floor of the Senate as long as the main vote would be delayed by up to one week to allow for an FBI investigation.

They better be careful with a cancer survivor. The stress he would be under could make the cancer return. But what do the libs care?

I suspect you are correct. Flake called for it knowing it wouldn’t matter. Wouldn’t doubt he got permission to agree to this from either McConnell or the White House.

Probably not. If Sessions was still in the Senate he’d agree with Flake.

Flake always has as an objection.
When one objection is resolved
he moves on to another objection.
And then he will move the goal post again.

No the FBI should come forward and say that they do not do these investigations.

I won’t repeat what my husband said when he saw this joke. Men in this country better wake up.

Sessions was an early Trumpster - Flake was always a never-trumper. As I recall.

This gives the Dems a full week to manufacture their Frankenbimbo complete with more allegations, this time maybe accompanied by some Soros bought and paid for “witnesses.”

First, when they torpedo this nomination, there'll be fighting in the streets.

Sadly, no there won't. If they approve him then you may see riots in the streets. Conservatives do no riot, they work for a living, Soros gives them nothing.

What changed is that everyone keeps buying the transformation of lindsey…
He says what they want to hear now after hugging Huma

Lindsey Graham Forgets He Hates Trump

The problem is that people don't change that quickly. They don't.

It is incredible to me that the Mormon mafia in Arizona supports this miserable cowardly sonofabitch. I figure they paid Flake his thirty pieces of silver many years ago.

Waiting to Friday instead of Tuesday is fine. It’s face saving but if it gets us there so be it. We’ll be free of Flake in January thankfully.

"dems didn’t get what they thought they were getting."

They got what they wanted.

They got one week in which to roll out more and more "victims" to level increasingly heinous accusations -- each of which will, of course, require an FBI investigation.

Consider:

"If you agreed it was reasonable to have an investigation for mere inappropriate touching, how can you possibly object to giving the FBI as much time as they need to investigate these serious allegations of multiple child molestation incidents?

"These poor men have been wounded for life due to this man molesting them when they were young boys. Don't they deserve at the very least an FBI investigation, just as you granted that poor Doctor he abused?"

What changed? The Republican Party is replete with cowards like Murkowski, Flake, and Collins. Personally, if I were Trump I would tell McConnel to bring the vote forward and warn both Collins and Murkowski that I would work to defeat them should they ever choose to run again for office. Appeasing people like those three is like appeasing Hitler at Munich.

Sounds like your projecting again..

No, A student of the game and I observe over a period of time how others respond and most importantly what they say

Opinions vary and few besides you have ever said that, I am actually being nice in my response. But then there are certain things that one feels compelled to respond to and unless that capability is removed (say by Anarchists) I will use it

Good Day...

Run along now
