Grassley knows she isn’t coming. Extend the invitation until you call for the vote on Monday.
He’s a wise old owl. I trust him.
He has to be counting votes behind the scenes and i feel that is what is holding this up.
Like Pavlov’s dog, I expect to hear the words “bully” and “arbitrary” at the sound of the 2:30 p.m. Bell.
He should grant extensions at 2 hour increment throughout the weekend, it will simply serve to make them look like fools. No vote can occur until 10:00 AM on Monday, so all of this means nothing.
apparently not
Forty five more minutes until the next delay.
Based on Susan Collins’ “appalled” comments yesterday, this additional delay is reprimanding Trump for his Friday comment about Blaseyford.
This whole issue is completely removed from the Democrats as a political weapon as long as Christine Buzzy Ford stalls the process indefinitely. In fact, she's doing great damage to the Democrats as we sit here now.
If this process drags on and: (1) Ford doesn't show up to testify; and (2) the confirmation vote is held up indefinitely while goobers like Flake and Corker keep saying "we must hear from her" ... then Christine Buzzy Ford can't make any media appearances to tell her fake story in a venue that doesn't expose her to perjury charges.
They've probably got taped interviews of her all lined up -- produced by the Democrat propaganda machine and ready to be shown on 60 Minutes, the Today show, Loser Holt's Dateline NBC, etc. She's had extensive cosmetic surgery, cries on cue, and puts on a good show. They probably have about four hours of video clips, which they prepared for the purpose of putting no more than the best 20 minutes on the air.
But they can only put it out to attack Kavanaugh AFTER he is confirmed ... and they can't put it out AT ALL if she testifies under oath.
More rope for hanging.
I’m going to dinner tonight, but I hope to be back for the 10 pm deadline and cave. I am a big Grassley cave fan; one of the biggest comedies on TV.
Catering to Murkowski s a fool’s errand. She will withhold her vote of Ford doesn’t appear, but she will vote “No” if Ford spews our her venom.
Now the left (just my opinion) is trying to go after Chuck Grassley “””Senate Judiciary aide resigns amid sexual harassment allegation: NBC””’ https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-court-advisor/senate-judiciary-aide-resigns-amid-sexual-harassment-allegation-nbc-idUSKCN1M20P2?feedType=RSS&feedName=politicsNews&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Reuters%2FPoliticsNews+%28Reuters+Politics+News%29
I have said this before. If the Republicans do not confirm Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, it may have a very negative impact on voter turn out for the election.
68 min. left...
Tick...Tock
I have two theories as to why Grassley is behaving like such a baffoon(He knows by the way that he is being played) either they do NOT have the votes to confirm Kavanaugh(My guess, either Flake, Collins, Murkowski, or all three) refuse to confirm him..and since there will be NO Democrats confirming Kavanaugh, it would be a lost cause even trying to seat him..if they had the votes they would have gotten this over with last week. Second theory is that they are terrified this is going to cost them in the midterm elections, which makes NO sense..the morons who are screaming and bitching about Kavanaugh will NEVER vote Republican anyway so who the hell cares what they think
Do we know for sure that Grassley’s latest deadline is 2:30 pm? I saw it noted on one thread, but not from a source that seemed particularly in a position to know. I’ve not seen it reported in any of the news media yet.
ISU 10 -Akron 10. 5:21 left in second quarter.
Game running a little long. Grassley might extend to 3pm.
As we pray and pray for this 2:30 deadline may we also rejoice that God has chosen Brett Kavanaugh as our new Justice of the Supreme Court
I personally believe God is taking Mr.Kavanaugh and all of us through a refiners fire
....and we need to pray thanksgiving for God’s deliverance!!!!,
No spine, no balls, no guts.
Just a DEEP pocket!!!
They’ll eventually get around to a vote. They are so afraid of PC. All the while, a fine as and honorable man twists in the wind. Probably the last Republican we’Ll ever have as a nominee.
Why they run scared of the filthy, scumbag Dems escapes me.
