Cory Booker's Grandstanding Stunt Backfires Bigtime
BPR Business and Politics ^ | Sep. 6, 2018 | Vivek Saxena

An attempt by loudmouth liberal Sen. Cory Booker to hijack Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing Thursday blew up in his face big time.

It all started when the obnoxious New Jersey Democrat threatened to commit an act of “civil disobedience” by releasing a confidential Kavanaugh email.

“I am going to release the e-mail about racial profiling and I understand that the penalty comes with potential ousting from the Senate,” the arrogant senator, who had the gall to liken himself to Spartacus, bloviated during the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Thursday.

While working for the administration of then-President George W. Bush in 2002, only months after Islamic terrorists had killed almost 3,000 Americans, Kavanaugh allegedly sent an email touting his belief that the federal government should use racial profiling to root out terrorism.

That wasn’t a controversial view at the time, but this wouldn’t have mattered to Booker’s radical base, ergo why he pulled this stunt and implied that Kavanaugh had been a supporter of racial profiling. And it would have worked had two additional things not happened.

First, Booker released the email in question. And second, Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Sen. Chuck Grassley released not only that email, but scores of other documents as well. What makes all this so wonderfully beautiful for conservatives is that the documents that were released, including the email Booker foolhardily leaked, proved him to be a disingenuous hack.

Plus ... they were already cleared.

Bill Burck said today, “We cleared the documents last night shortly after Senator Booker’s staff asked us to. We were surprised to learn about Senator Booker’s histrionics this morning because we had already told him he could use the documents publicly. In fact, we have said yes to every request made by the Senate Democrats to make documents public.”

Democrats need to heed their own warnings referencing six ways to Sunday. Playing gotcha like Booker and Harris did today only serves in aiding in your own ugly demise.

Their “own early demise” depends on the American voters, and the voters are not too reliable. Many are too uninformed to make a legitimate choice.

All the people I work with only get their news from CNN, so they have no clue.
