Hillary: Kavanaugh's Accuser Deserves 'the Benefit of the Doubt'
Grabien ^ | September 18, 2018

RUSH EXCERPT:

CLINTON: “What I would like to see is a democratic majority that actually has the chance to make that choice right now the Democrats have very few tools at their disposal to stop the Republicans from going full speed ahead and engaging in the kind of unprecedented behavior as they did with the Garland nomination. So I’m not in favor of either unilateral disarmament or defcon-10. I think there has to be some effort to try to get back to regular order, try to get back to having a system, a process in place so that we are not subjected to the hardball behavior of the Republicans that we saw in the Garland nomination, and we’re not subject to the outrageous denial of the information that was requested on Kavanaugh. I mean, there can’t be one set of rules for Democrats and one set of rules for Republicans. That’s one of the reasons why people don’t have any confidence in the Congress. How can you? You don’t know what’s going to happen from day to day. I remember back in the Thomas hearing when senator bird was asked what he was going to do, and he said in a situation like this we should give the benefit of the doubt to the court and the country. And that’s what the Republicans should be doing right now, from the White House down Pennsylvania avenue to the Senate, give the benefit of the doubt to the court and the country. And that means have an investigation that will then lead to a hearing that will then lead to a vote if appropriate. And instead, they are playing the hardest of hardballs to try to pack the court with, you know, another nominee, regardless of the questions. Remember, Rachel, there were lots of questions raised in the hearing itself about some of his testimony, some of the statements he had made when he was first confirmed for the circuit court, and then additional statements. So there were already reasons to doubt the testimony and the positions that he was taking as well as substantive issues that are fair game for senators to explore.”

Did the accuser write the same kind of letter to the Dems about Gorsuch last year?

Same age as Gorsuch. Gorsuch went to same Prep school as Kavanaugh, two years behind him.

Saw this on twitter

Sorry Clintoon. Judge Kavanaugh “deserves the benefit of the doubt”. He’s an upstanding, honorable judge. Your old wacky Ford broad is a liberal, pu**yhat-wearing, loony toon activist “psychology professor”. Gonna have to do better than this Clintoon.

Being a hateful self-centered person ages you in an unflattering way. She has no apparent softness.

What does John McCain have to say about the accuser?

If there were real penalties for lying about this, less women would lie about it.

“No, the accused deserve the assumption of innocence you hypocrite.”


Indeed. “Benefit of the doubt”, like “innocent before proven guilty” is a expression reserved for the accused, not for the accuser.
Clinton is not only an hypocrite, she is dumb beyond imagination.

On most issues, Hillary has zero credibility. On this one, she has negative credibility, like the Joker in Batman. Yet the libs will still take her seriously.

But Kavanaugh, in defiance of established canons respecting burden of proof, does not.

Got it.

The last time we had a big sex scandal, the wife of the accused said that the accusations were due to “a vast right-wing conspiracy” - and who would know if the wife of the accused didn’t?

So the simple answer to this otherwise insoluble “he said, she said” is simply to take the word of Mrs. Kavenaugh. Sure, she has reasons to want her husband to be elevated to the status of SCOTUS justice - but Hillary had more reasons than that to want to remain in the White House.

So if Mrs. Kavenaugh says it didn’t happen, Judge Kavenaugh’s nomination has to be confirmed.

And if she adds, “What difference, at this point, does it make?” Mrs. Kavenaugh should be nominated for President of the United States.

That’s right! She was the head of the Bimbo Eruptions Unit.

Give the accuser three chances to answer questions under oath.

Have each chance be a day apart starting next Monday.

If she misses all three, vote on Kavanaugh on the fourth day, and get him confirmed.
