Exactly. The stories are really laced with "drunkenness and hazy recollections" so the people who are making them have a ready-made excuse NOT to testify or file a sworn statement.

If I read one more post from someone who claims Charles Grassley is a naïve fool, I'm going to vomit all over my keyboard.

The guy is 85 years old and has been in politics for more than five decades. Does anyone really believe he doesn't see the political landmines in front of him? He's one of a very tiny group of sitting U.S. Senators today who was around for BOTH the Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas confirmation debacles.

FIVE DECADES. Talk ‘bout not giving any warm-n-fuzzies.

So ‘experienced’, he’s
- Allowed never-Trumpers and lame-ducks to pollute the process
- Let Feinswine railroad a more than capable SCOTUS nominee (no call for removal/censure...as of yet. Way to uphold the rules\process, Grassley)
- Kissed the ass of the accuser ((s) now) instead of holding firm and telling ‘em to being impeachment proceedings if they find anything in the future.

Problem is, he’s BEEN THERE 50+ YEARS. Our banana republic couldn’t get much better under these jelly-fish FOSSILS.
