DEMS NOW WANT KAVANAUGH INVESTIGATED FOR ALLEGED BEHAVIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL
Powerline ^ | September 13,2018 | PAUL MIRENGOFF I

Posted on 09/13/2018 3:55:29 PM PDT by Hojczyk

It looks like I spoke too soon when I said that the Kavanaugh confirmation process never reached the nauseating lows of the Bork and Thomas hearings. The Washington Times reports that Sen. Dianne Feinstein has asked federal investigators to probe a secret complaint about Kavanaugh. The complaint, reportedly lodged by woman, pertains to an incident that supposedly occurred when Kavanaugh and the women were in high school.

The woman passed her complaint to Rep. Anna Eshoo, a California Democrat. She apparently is unwilling to come forward publicly to talk about the alleged incident. Buzzfeed contacted the woman rumored to have lodged the complaint. She refused to comment.

The Anita Hill ambush of Clarence Thomas was bad enough. But at least Hill was willing to stand publicly behind her claims. And at least those claims, though not coming close to stating a case of sexual harassment, were less than a decade old.

A spokesman for Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Charles Grassley said that Grassley is aware of the referral. He added that “there is no plan to change the committee’ consideration of Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination.”

Nor should there be. No nomination should be derailed by ancient claims of misconduct made by someone who is unwilling publicly to state them. In an era where partisans try to bribe Senators into voting against a nominee, it will always be possible to find someone willing to make secret allegations of misconduct from the distant past.

Indeed, there’s no reason why the FBI, which has vetted Kavanaugh multiple times since 1993, should investigate a claim pertaining to an event that may have occurred 35 years ago, when Kavanaugh was a teenager. If Kavanaugh committed a crime, the time to accuse him was decades ago. If he didn’t commit a crime, who cares what happened

“The New York Times publishes the double top secret exposé on White House gossip anonymously, yet we are told to believe it.”

And by the way, they hate whitey.

Living in CA, land of the fruits, nuts, illegals and jungle primaries, I get to have the privilege of choosing between Feinstein and her fellow Dem Kevin de Leon for US Senator in November.

Up until now, I was going to vote for Feinstein as the lesser of two evils as de Leon is even farther to the left. Well, Diane, you just lost my vote and my wife’s vote. We will not be voting for either you or de Leon come November. Maybe I will write in my own name. Yes, that sounds nice.

Once, in daycare, he bit another kid. Ok, maybe the other kid bit him. Well, fine, then it didn’t happen but I’m sure someone will swear it did.

We realize that the Gobbles/Soroz-DNC “Big Lie” (big smear, big defamation) technique can work, especially when almost the entire mass media is promoting the lies 24/7/365

but.. high school?

THIS is getting really ridiculous!

(and today along these same Big Lie methods,
a whole bunch of far-leftists are assembled in San FranShitco...blaming PDJT for “global warming”... AT THE SAME TIME another bunch of Soroz sock-puppets is blaming PDJT for the Carolina hurricane

which is it, Mr. Soroz? warming or rainstorms?

I didn’t know Kavanaugh played a prank on a girl...

Oh my God - the world is really coming to an end now!

Teenage girls talk, and talk, and talk.

They live to talk.

I’m very suspicious of any claim not backed by contemporary information transmission.

The number of post-hearing inquiries submitted to #Kavanaugh is greater than the combined total for every Supreme Court justice in U.S. history. Democrats are beyond desperate.

Yet RBG, a counsel for the ACLU and a Clinton nominee, was approved 98 - 2. FU DiFi!

Do you have a link for this? It is pretty significant I think but I couldn’t find it on the Guardian site.

This is from the party that makes a fuss about personal privacy.

Turns out it doesn’t apply to Republicans.

Kavanaugh graduated from an all boys Jesuit High School, Georgetown Prep. I went to an all boys Jesuit high school too. There are no females on campus. Discipline in those schools is tough. About half of my freshman class did not make it to graduation. If he pulled a girls pigtail at a football game he would have been expelled.

Isn’t it strange how judges who have served for many years, and in some cases have been elected previously, suddenly have accusers come out of the woodwork at the last moment.

They stepped into it big time.

Kavaugh is two years younger than me, so we’re talking about the late 70s.

There is no statute of limitations if you’re a Republican.

Things like that never remain “confidential” for long in Washington. It leaks like a sieve.

However I know about Diane Feinstein. If this is what Senator Feinstein referred to the FBI for further investigation, she is not only corrupt but an ass.

I am not that up to date on California politics, but seem to remember that, for the first time in her career, Senator Feinstein has an opponent from the left. As a result of the jungle primary system used in this election, her opponent in the general election is another Democrat who is more radical than she is. She is probably desperate as the "conservative" in a California election. (She probably qualifies as an ass also.)
