Really?!..not one?


Yep really, not one. What they do care about is the seat and the rulings that come with it. This is political theatre over that, nothing more or less. No one up there gives a shit about Mr Kavanaugh, Ms Ford, or whatever happened to them back in high school. Politicians are politicians.

They only had bearing a couple weeks ago but after that arbitrary deadline passed they are no longer valid.

I’m saying no senator that is voting for or against his confirmation cares a single bit about the allegations.

Are you saying that if he is guilty of these alleged sexual assaults that they should have no bearing on whether he is confirmed to the US Supreme Court?

Better stay away from the news then, because, this is going to be a thing for a long while.

I say "Hey Google, Good morning" to my Home mini so that it can give me the daily speech... and like 4 different outlets go from start to finish on this story every damn day with every single detail repeated. I don't mean to blame the victim but FFS you guys were at a college party and drinking... and that part is repeated too.

I think that he is saying that the senators simply don’t care. I too thought that this morning but the hearing has gone so wrongly for the Republicans that some of them are caring now.

I understand what he is also saying, yet I want an answer to the original question. It's a very simple question that requires only a one word answer.

Are you saying? Are you saying? I’m saying what I said. They don’t care about the allegations, they care about the SC seat.

Are you saying that the Senate GOP cares about the allegations, or do they just care about the SC seat?

If Trump is brought up for impeachment for colluding with Russia, will you care if he actually did it, or will you instead write endlessly about how everyone in Congress only cares about the politics?

News flash: political motives are common in Congress. It's the fact that you think this is the most salient aspect in all of this which is odd.

Again, I’m saying exactly what I’ve said. Numerous times. There isn’t a single person who will be voting on whether or not he’s confirmed that gives a shit about Mr Kavanaugh and Ms Ford and what happened between them 35 years ago. It’s foolish to pretend otherwise. This is, has always been, and will continue to be about control of the SC seat.

I find it hilarious that Lindsey Graham is going to lecture anyone on anything being a sham considering he went from being a #NeverTrumper to sucking Trump's dick because he realized it was the only way to get whatever he wanted.

I am asking you. Answer the question or say you refuse or keep not answering and I'll keep asking. I have no power to hold you in contempt, but it would be fun.

It is of course utterly impossible for you to make that statement with even the slightest bit of confidence.

I’ve answered you many times, whether he is guilty or not is irrelevant to the people who will be voting on it.

Maybe that's why he's not got a significant other. He's got trouble staying hard in 1 spot.

If Feinstein was conserved about that she wouldn’t have sat on it. To think a politician is doing anything other than playing politics is naive.
Dude, listen...
Feinstein found out about this by virtue of Ford contacting her... she felt bound by confidentiality. She had to sit on it because Ford did not want it revealed, pure and simple. Get it? She only spilled the beans when Ford was outed by virtue of leaks, and Ford let her know it was OK to reveal the situation. It wasn't Feinstein who leaked it.

He knows this already. It's been explained about 308,765,329,245 times.

I nor anyone else on this planet other than Mr Kavanaugh, Ms Ford, and Mr Judge will ever know what happened. The goal of the council isn’t to find out what happened. The political leadership that will be voting on his confirmation don’t care what happened. If he sexually assaulted someone then no I don’t think he belongs on the court, but an accusation shouldn’t be the end all which is becoming the norm. What we saw today was calculated political theatre as both parties wrestle for control of the seat. Pretending that the congressmen care about what happened gives them the fuel to continue, this will be every judge going forward. Congrats.

Just shut the fuck up already. You've posted this tripe multiple times already with zero corroborating evidence other than your feels. You are a "both sides" bitch who happens to only complain about one side just like the other "both sides" bitch on this forum.

All you are doing is simply projecting the Republicans next move for when they regain power. Its the goto play of the right.

Corroborating evidence of what, that politicians are engaging in politics? o_O

You seem to be implying the burden of proof should fall on the accuser..
