Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell insists the U.S. Senate will vote on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, and most voters still support that decision. There’s also only slightly less urgency in their minds about getting the job done.
This must be driving the libs crazy...........er.....................than usual...............
Let’s vote already
I predict, Christine Sunglasses Ford will not testify, saying through her attorneys that some aspects of the structure of the hearing are unfair.
Then, she will be free to go yakk with Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar and Rachel Maddow and go on 60 Minutes, and tell her story. And none of that will be under oath, so no legal liability for her to go yakk it up with these media types at that point.
"When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle." - –Edmund Burke, Thoughts on the Cause of the Present Discontents 82-83 (1770) in: Select Works of Edmund Burke, vol. 1, p. 146 (Liberty Fund ed. 1999).
She was never really going to testify.
I believe the Republicans have a slight problem like Flake, Murkowski and Collins. Maybe more.
I suspect the Dems may try and set up a fake hearing as they famously did with Sandra Fluke.
Get a location that looks like a Senate hearing room. Have important looking people ask questions from the podium. Have her sitting at a table with a Mrs. Ford nameplate and a glass of water. Have her answer softball questions and cry on cue.
Don’t be shocked if they try it.
VOTE THURSDAY RIGHT AFTER THE HEARING.
Ford can testify or not, she has no new information other than a flimsy “allegation”. Vote Thursday night.
Vote now. Put the onus on the Senators. If they have not been convinced that this was planned they do not belong in any office. They are the criminals.
with tina Fey playing sara palin as the questioner?
Senate Rules will preclude a vote of the entire Senate on Thursday. I think that the earliest will be next Tuesday. There could be a vote of the Judiciary Committee, but I’m not sure that if it is required.
P
Get on with it.
Senator Cornyn just explained that the Judiciary Committee will vote on Friday and the nomination will be sent to the Floor of the Senate on Saturday with a vote on Tuesday.
Vote Thursday, no more delays!
BTTT!
Absolutely
HAHAHAHAHA That means the RATS have to stay in Washington over the weekend for the 30 hours of debate on the nomination.
Okay, I’ll tip my hat to Mitch on that...
I’m beginning to think this is correct.
If GWB was President, they would have won as he would have pulled it.
