Ugly war of words in Senate as nation splits over Kavanaugh
Washington Examiner via MSN ^ | 03 Oct 2018 | Susan Ferrechio

Republicans and Democrats are ramping up accusatory tweets, floor speech insults, and hallway criticisms of each other as the Senate hurdles toward what the GOP hopes is a final vote this week on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.... ...Late Tuesday, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, got fed up with it after Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., sent along a letter that included a vague allegation..."My investigators have serious work to do," he wrote to Coons. "I therefore hope that, before forwarding an allegation in the future, you will first consider whether you'd want you or your staff to spend valuable time investigating it.".... ….McConnell and Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., traded barbs on the Senate floor Tuesday, after McConnell said he's never seen anything like the Democrats' "despicable" mission to destroy Kavanaugh's reputation.... ...“If you think this is about a search for the truth, you need to put down the bong,” Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., told reporters.

I wouldn’t classify 60/40 as a “split”.

Ugly war of words, indeed.

Democrat Senators are lying treasonous hypocritical nannystaters.

The Ugly War of Words is their doing and no one had the sense to respond “how dare you, sir/ma’am”.

After Schumer got the Senate to have the FBI investigate Kavanaugh for the 7th time, yesterday he demanded time for the Senate to now investigate the FBI!

No, you see, our betters (MSM} have assigned us a split, so we have to accept it and behave as if it is true.

When the MSM-Democrats start complaining about the “ugly war of words” they started, you know things aren’t going their way.

It isn’t ugly when they mount a phony BS attack on a man of accomplishment, it only gets ugly when he fights back.

It’s all Alinskyite politics, every single thing they say.

Then when they get caught, all of a sudden it’s “ugly.”

“he demanded time for the Senate to now investigate the FBI!”...………

When oh when is ANYONE going to demand that “Beastly Ford” be investigated? There is sooooooooooooooooo much evidence that she is in deep with the swamp critters and definitely prior to her debut with the Kavanaugh circus. If you have been following Ford’s act, she lied under oath not once but several times. Why is no one calling for her to be investigated?

And the criminal conspiracy of the Senate Democrats to suborn perjury before Congress, and to lie to the American People, needs to be INVESTIGATED...on anongoing, and PERMANENT basis!!!

it’d be more fun for the FBI to investigate Schumer and his role in the artificial banking collapse

1/3 of this country is hopelessly addicted to the Free Sh** Express. Add to that a layer who can't make a firm decision on anything.
