Do they have the right to demand tons of paperwork? Which could delay things?

On the other hand, could they say they will vote no because of not getting documents? But they will.vote no anyway.

It’s not like they want these documents to help make an informed decision.

Quick question: could Judge Kavanaugh decline to answer questions from every senator who has already indicated opposition to him?

The bright side of all of this Democrat BS is the Democrats are shooting themselves in their pants 2018, and IMO 2020 as well. Keep up the good work Dems. You are keeping our costs down too.

I think McConnell can set time for debate and schedule a vote. He will allow a long debate as he said the vote would be in Th Fall - sounds like early October

Maybe they can get the FBI to go through the paperwork as fast as they went through Hillary's 650,000 emails.

They hope to drag out the election process until they imagine they will seize the Senate in November. Then they hope to elect another Ginsberg or even Bernie. Good grief.

The Dems has the list of candidates for over a year, in some cases a year and a half.

They have no excuses.

Start the confirmation process tomorrow and confirm Friday.

Let them go to the gd library. All his cases are on record.

Demand????...that's BS...

I believe the Senate submits written questions to the nominee first and then they will interview/interrogate him..

bkbio; bkcasehistory; bknominated; bkworkproduct

These are the worst non-humor keywords I've ever seen here. Who would come to Free Republic, especially in a couple of years, and search the keyword "bkworkproduct" when looking for articles related to Brett Kavanaugh?

No.

Elections have consequences.

Next question?

I am at least thankful we went have to endure that smarmy Al Franken this time. There are some people whose very countenance make you want to slap them. He is one.

If the definition of a conservative is a liberal whose been mugged, then after this smear campaign is over and he’s confirmed he’ll probably be the most conservative Justice of all time.

He’s going to remember who his enemies are.

I think Trump has become more and more conservative because of the way that the left has treated him and his family.

When all is said and done Trump will be the most conservative President ever.

They can see the Kavanaugh files as soon as we see the DOJ and FBI Russia investigation files.

Filter them through the DoJ. They will receive about four percent of them by the time the vote is taken.
