You’d think that lawyers at least would understand what the FBI does and does not do

The ABA needs to be disbarred. It’s obviously been overrun by anti-American communists. And no, I’m not kidding.

The American bar association needs to be disbarred, they’re just a bunch of liberal anul orifices. Why don’t they suggest that the Democrat party sign a legally binding agreement that each and every Democrat will vote for Kavanaugh if the FBI PROBE FINDS FORDS CLAIMS ARE UNSUBSTANTIATED.

You’ve heard of the ‘Golden Triangle’. Well this is the ‘Manure Triangle’:

1. Leftist professors indoctrinate the legal professionals.

2. Legal professionals and the DC Swamp get rich together through arbitrary power plays.

3. The DC Swamp helps enrich the colleges with tax money and fraudulent grants and encourage more liberalism in ‘higher’ learning and ‘research’.

The Committee already has the ABA opinion and it was read by Graham - a sterling review of Kavanaugh as a judge and as a person. The ABA has already spoken and what they said should be taken at face value - uncorroborated allegations from high school do not and should not change a thing. Dr. Ford HAD HER HEARING and could offer no new evidence. Potential witnesses have all submitted statements under penalty of felony. The FBI can add nothing to the process, other than to give Ford more of an opportunity to perjure herself and give the Democr@ps what they desire - delay. Any further delay continues the destruction of Kavanaugh and his family, which is the relevant CRIME that is being committed.

VOTE!

The entire Swamp revolves around one axis — the network of leftist professors.

Like Rush L. says, “an organization not specifically conservative at its founding eventually moves leftward.”

The last half hour/45 minutes of that attempted take down revealed the toll taken on a good man.

I forget the question or comment, but Kavenaugh had been spoken to about something simple, and I saw his face screw up two or three different expressions that to me, clearly showed a man on the verge of a break down.

After I think I realized that thought, I ALSO saw him recover in smart style, but it is clear, Grassley saved Kavenaugh from more psy-0ps performed by the enemies of America ... the entire democrat party.

Fienstein should be in prison right now for purposefully violating her position as confidante.

difi brought this entire machine to the room, fueled it up and pushed the start button.

Welcome to The Supreme Court, Judge Kavenaugh

The interestinf fact though is that the ABA supported the nomination.

The ABA is now atoning for tht sin by taking up the party line, the hue and cry for an FBI investigation

By asking for an FBI investigaation the whole body of democrate were admitting they had nothing.

I wondered why no one ever clarified what time of day this alleged incident occurred. Being in a bathing suit at night is different from going to someone’s house from the pool during the day when parents were at work. I could only bear to watch Ford’s testimony for about a half hour so I did not hear this.

ABA is far left, they just need there thug street cred back. No doubt the death threats started coming in after their glowing review of Kavanaugh.

Dems need more time. The pink-hat wearing resistance who “will do anything” for the cause aren’t coming out of the sewer with accusations as fast as they were expected to. They’ll show up to yell “I believe survivors” and force people out of a restaurant but not to commit perjury even when offered lawyers and whatever other aid they need.

The FBI has already said it was not going to get involved. They sent whatever they were given by Feinstein to the WH..and called it done!

They can have their FBI investigation after he is confirmed. If it proves that he is a rapist (and everyone with half a brain knows that it won’t), he can be impeached.

Let’s also call for an FBI investigation concerning the leak of Ford’s memo.

LAW & THE COURTS
American Bar Association Gives Kavanaugh Unanimous ‘Well-Qualified’ Rating
By MAIREAD MCARDLE
August 31, 2018 6:08 PM

Supreme Court nominee judge Brett Kavanaugh looks on in the East Room of the White House, July 9, 2018. (Leah Millis/Reuters)
The American Bar Association on Friday awarded Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh its highest rating, giving the judge a unanimous “well-qualified” score.

“The rating of ‘Well Qualified’ is reserved for those found to merit the Committee’s strongest affirmative endorsement,” the ABA states in its description of the ranking process.

Kavanaugh, President Trump’s pick to replace former Supreme Court justice Anthony Kennedy, will begin what is expected to be a contentious four-day confirmation process before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday. Senate Democrats have threatened to tank his nomination and have requested millions of pages of documents from his tenure as staff secretary to President George W. Bush.

Of particular concern to his Democratic critics are his apparent view that a sitting president cannot be indicted and his views on health care and abortion. Abortion-rights advocates are worried the D.C. Circuit Court judge would vote to overturn the landmark abortion case Roe v. Wade if it were re-litigated.”

How fickle and how quickly they turn...notvto mention their previous endorsements of Judge Kavanaugh. Politics is war by other means.

“”“I am not in a position to demand this or that investigator, that is the job of the committee?””

“”As I recall he said it several times.””

You’re right - he did.

He'll be confirmed.

The next pick will definitely be a woman.

Then again....President Trump may shove it to them and pick a man.
