You have diddled enough.
Stop debate and vote.
Let the majority rule.
Then move on like the Constitution wanted you to do.

The timing of this allegation is beyond suspicious.

But even if there was some contact between two teenagers fifty years ago. Is it possible that it was some sort of misunderstanding by clumsy kids? Is it possible the lefty lady is embellishing the encounter for political reasons?

teenagers are awkward people who sometimes get themselves into awkward situations.

At best this is unfortunate misunderstanding. At worst this is a craven attempt by politicians to do by innuendo what they are unable to do by legitimate means.

In America, we are presumed innocent until proved guilty. Also, God doesn’t want us to gossip.

So, I don’t much think about the gossip smear job against Trump or Kavanaugh or Moore.

It’s not my business.

That would be my first question: Why didn't you say anything about this incident to authorities for 36 years? If it wasn't important enough to you to tell authorities in all that time, then it certainly isn't important enough to merit mention at a Supreme Court nominee's hearing.

Libtard trying to throw a monkey wrench into Kavanaugh's confirmation process, using the thinnest of reeds:

This tactic should infuriate people and cause a backlash against the vile Democrats. Sadly forty percent of the American population does not have the discerning skills or disposition to recognize this nonsense for what it is. They will vote Democrat regardless of the facts.

If there is no evidence, you cannot thrust this matter into a confirmation process.

There isn't any evidence, and they thrust it into the confirmation process anyway.

Perhaps after Kavanaugh is confirmed, one of Roy Moore’s lawsuits will go to the SC.

I’ve reached the point where I firmly believe that the left is incapable of telling the truth - even when their miserable lives depend on it.

That is only one piece of this issue. There is another one.

Should old high school misdeeds that wouldn’t have added up to a whole crime in a previous era be used against anyone to deny them appointments or jobs decades later, when society’s mores change (or simply the individual becomes an adult with decent comportment)?

Clearly, accusing a man of a child rape as a teen, or helping to bury a murdered victim’s body back then, would be accusations that might point to a permanent character flaw as well as perhaps a prosecutable crime.

Lesser bad deeds, though. Do we want everyone to be judged by such standards? In a day where attacking girls sexually was commonplace, where women on tv said no but meant yes, and when one’s morals are not fully formed but testosterone is raging, should a misdeed of pulling at clothes and rolling round on a dressed woman be enough to ruin a man’s later career? What else? Trying cocaine? One visit to a gay bar? Dropping off a frat brother drunk with no money in a bad part of town? Changing high school grades in AV class? Being drunk in class? Getting a girl pregnant?

Are there enough people who did nothing wrong in high school to find 9 for the court?

Major correction. In the U.S., you do NOT have to prove you are INNOCENT. The prosecutor has to prove you are GUILTY.

I smell opportunity. If this woman is as bat shut nuts as she appears to be, the GOP shouldnoress for a public hearing asap. My spider senses tell me that DiFi held this back because she knows this woman will come across as a lunatic.

1. Democrats begin to believe their own press and start to think that gaining control of the Senate in January 2019 is possible.

2. They fail to lay a glove on the nominee in the confirmation hearings proper.

3. They decide to unload this strategy – to weaken the nomination, to try to get a delay past the election, in the hope that they get a majority and can offer Flake and Corker something in the lame duck session to obstruct a vote until the new Congress.

4. While everyone was looking at Collins and Murkowski – they already knew that Flake and Corker were their best bets.

5. They are shameless.

6. I hope the Senate holds and two more openings appear on SCOTUS during 2019.

Did we even have to guess? I mean seriously, did we even have to guess
that a claim of sexual assault would come up against him? This is de
rigueur for the commies, whether it be Clarence Thomas, Herman Caine,
Trump, Roy Moore, these guys never ever ever have one single solitary complaint against them until they run for office or in this case are being confirmed. I bet these commies pukes have some handbook hidden away that
dictates procedure step by step and then of course the next step is Gloria Allred
having a press conference with the “victim” following the same script
word for word just like a million times before with the “victim” crying crocodile tears
on cue and Gloria handing her a tissue. It’s Groundhog day with these
commies, they pull the same schit over and over and over and over and
over and if we had a real justice dept. they would investigate the bank accounts of these slimebags. The redhead that accused Roy Moore was a real doozy, 75 year old lady claiming she was 55 showing a forged yearbook, unreal and nothing happens to them.

The down and dirty is upon us and its against Donald Trump at the end of the day, the man who nominated Judge Kavanaugh.

Roll up your sleeves and fight back against this smear job.
