What do they hope to gain/ If Kavanaugh goes down, there’s more conservative nominees waiting in the wings, who I’ve heard are more conservative than Kavanaugh.

We need to secure the Supreme Court pending the actions that are coming.

Timing is important. The derps MUST delay until after the mid-terms in the hope they can retake the House and/or the Senate. The Judiciary Committee and full Senate MUST bulldoze through these delying tactics (and possible kill shot) and get Kavanaugh confirmed. I am confident they will. But expect a full court press by the derp state Mockinbird media. This is their nuke.

And this is their desperation move. They, too, have a plan.

It just sucks compared to ours.

...sent to the FBI

Hail Mary Pass: We can’t possibly go forward with a nominee that is currently under investigation by the FBI.

Doesn’t he have the right to face his accuser?

Re: 61

Agreed. These Dem Senators, and their water carrying Media pals, are all despicable.

Re: 69

I agree if such a claim was made - but now it is all very vague. I haven’t seen the actual accusation in print. I was just trying to provide some benefit of the doubt. The bigger point is: ‘so what’?

Probably Collins..she received many death threats, which according to MSNBC is just “Democracy in action” but if it was THEIR side getting those same death threats Dems would be calling US fascists

A source familiar with the confirmation proceedings told Fox News that Feinstein received the letter back in July, but did not make its existence known publicly until Thursday. According to a report by The Intercept, the letter was relayed to lawmakers by an individual affiliated with Stanford University and concerns an incident involving the 53-year-old Kavanaugh and a woman while they were in high school. According to two officials who spoke anonymously with the New York Times, the incident involved possible sexual misconduct between Kavanaugh and the woman. The letter reportedly was given to Feinstein by Rep. Anna Eshoo, D-Calif., but has not been publicly disclosed by senators who have seen the document. Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., said that the letter in question has been referred to the FBI for investigation. The FBI conducts background checks on all major government appointees, including Supreme Court nominees. “Upon receipt of the information on the night of September 12, we included it as part of Judge Kavanaugh’s background file, as per the standard process,” the FBI said in a statement.

The timing is important. We don't know when Anna Eschoo initially got the letter, but if this reporting is accurate, she passed it on to Feinstein sometime in July. Feinstein did not give it to the FBI until September 12 -- i.e., yesterday. So: the Democrats seem to have sat on a hearsay accusation for at least six weeks, preventing the FBI from investigating and, of course, denying Kavanaugh any opportunity to defend himself. And after a six week delay, they rush it to the press. This is beneath contempt.

This is why the founding fathers put in the Constitution that a person has the right to face his accuser, so that somebody like Diane Feinstein could not pull crap like this.

It’s going to be much more serious than a kiss, in fact, I am betting an allegation of sexual assault, maybe even rape. It will be a criminal act,

If the FBI has any credibility left, it will refuse to investigate something a teenager did more than 35 years ago.

The FBI ought to be looking at why DiFi kept a Chinese spy employed for 20 years.

How many assets did Feinstein get killed or sent to prison in China via her Chinese spy? Anyone ask her yet?

Only the Good Die Young
Billy Joel

Come out Virginia, don’t let ‘em wait
You
Catholic girls
start much too late
Aw but sooner or later it comes down to faith
Oh I might as well be the one

Well, they showed you a statue, told you to pray
They built you a temple and locked you away
Aw, but they never told you the price that you pay
For things that you might have done
Only the good die young
That’s what I said
Only the good die young
Only the good die young

You might have heard I run with a dangerous crowd
We ain’t too pretty we ain’t too proud
We might be laughing a bit too loud
Aw but that never hurt no one

So come on Virginia show me a sign
Send up a signal and I’ll throw you the line
The stained-glass curtain you’re hiding behind
Never let’s in the sun
Darlin’ only the good die young
Woah
I…

There are inter High School dances/mixers between all boys and all girls schools. I presume that is where the alleged transgression is claimed to have occurred. Or maybe a date with a girl from the neighborhood.

Georgetown Prep is a selective, single sex high school in a big city. It is not a boarding school. The boys have perfectly normal social lives, with kids that run the full gamut of high school types (except that they're all smart). They just don't have girls in the classroom.

Georgetown Prep is a pricey school in a pricey part of Montgomery County. It caters to the carriage trade. There is a joke at Gonzaga to the effect that Georgetown Prep has a golf course on its campus, while Gonzaga has a homeless shelter. Both are academically selective, though the most rigorous Catholic boys school in DC may be St. Anselm's, off South Dakota Ave in far Northeast.

Democraps must apply the BJClinton Standard that they created in 1998. The allegation, even if not true, must be worse than any sexual act or crime that BJC did before, during or after holding the office of President. The standard includes the following presumptions: (1) everyone lies about sex; (2) what anyone does in private does not affect their ability to perform their gub’mint job; (3) it depends on what the meaning of “is” is, or “was” was.

I am sure Feinstool voted to acquit BJClinton during the impeachment show trial.

One of the articles I saw (have scanned several, and read a few) claimed that they were high school classmates.

But Yeah, All are INTENTIONALLY extremely vague, including statements by Feinstein, to prevent any refutation by Kavenaugh: Since the ‘victim’ is completely anonymous, the ‘chain of custody’ of the claims is ‘iffy’ and no specific charge has been made, Kavenaugh can’t even deny it happened.

Too bad our society is so stupid that this kind of crap actually works to sway public opinion, and not of just those on the left.

Feinstein’s letter will be fan mail from some flounder.

She has a tube wireless behind a bookcase complete with straight key, headphones, and code book, tuned to her handler’s frequency in Beijing.
