Judge Kavanaugh Confirmation Debacle

Judge Brett Kavanaugh -  Supreme Court Nominee

This is an analysis from a FB friend 
which deserves broad viewership. 

It is a succinct and lucid summary 
of the Judge Kavanaugh Senate 
hearings and issues.

Facts:

1)  Six FBI background checks over 25 years:
     No Negatives found.
2) 1,325 written questions from US Senators:
    No Negative Comments
3) 65 meetings with US Senators:
    The allegations were never mentioned
4) 32 hours of public hearings:
     No mention of the allegations
5) In US Senate Judiciary Committee Executive session:
    No reference to the allegations

Booker: aka: Spartacus 

6) Senator Cory Booker
     Made no mention the allegations
7)  At the time of this post [18SEP2918], the accuser continued to refuse to appear before the Senate Committee.
     -- No other witnesses will be allowed to appear before the Committee.

8)  The Washington Post published a hit piece mentioning a single, uncorroborated, allegation from 36 years ago, during Kavanaugh's high school days, and the Senate Committee must now delay or defeat Judge Kavanagh's nomination to the Senate for confirmation to the Supreme Court.

This is a disgraceful, partisan debasement of the 

US Senate and the confirmation process, and the 

fact that it was held until the eleventh-hour is 

suspicious, at best, and nefarious at worst!

To clarify, here is the Democrats timeline:

Senator Feinstein

• Dianne Feinstein, a Senior Democrat member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, had a written statement in her possession from a woman accusing Kavanaugh of misconduct when they were both teenagers, weeks before Kavanaugh ever came before Congress for hearings.

• Feinstein did not turn the letter over to the FBI, which would then have had the authority to discretely interview those involved and assess the allegation's legal ramifications for a public figure.

• Feinstein (and other Senate Dems who presumably knew about the letter) did not ask Kavanaugh about the allegations they knew had been made against him during the hundreds of hours of closed and open testimony and thousands of submitted questions.

• Feinstein held the letter until Kavanaugh's hearing was concluded and a vote for him was all-but-sure to pass nomination, and then first mentioned the letter during a press release to reporters - where the case would be litigated in the public arena, and not within the halls of investigative or deliberative bodies whose job it is to assess these claims.

• Because Kavanaugh was never asked about the accusations or his relationship with the accuser in days of questioning by the Senate, the Judge presumably had no idea what the allegations even were.
   a) The accusations lack a time, place, and circumstances
   b) making them all but impossible for Kavanaugh's defense
   c) Such accusations would never be admissible in a court of law!

Senator Grassley

• Feinstein did not cooperate with Republicans in setting up follow-up calls with the Kavanaugh accuser who accuser continues to ignore requests from Senator Grassley for a hearing.

• Feinstein and Senate Democrats refused to speak with Kavanaugh and the Senate Judiciary staff Monday after the accuser had gone public and Kavanaugh had forcibly denied the allegations.

The accuser's lawyer says it is not her client’s job to corroborate her claims against Kavanaugh
[a normal process in a court of law]

Every legitimate accuser should be  heard -- after investigation and verification;  and such cases should be  litigated to the fullest extent. However, the way Democrats have handled this claim has in no way benefitted the accuser, accused, or the greater Me Too movement.  
A court would throw out such an accusation for lack of evidence as well as the fact that the event allegedly occurred 36 years prior. The fact that the accuser is linked to the Hillary campaign and to the Steele bogus accusation degrades the accuser and the accusation. 

It smacks of political weaponization!



EDITORIAL NOTE:
Who is the accuser?

Presidents I've Known

Trump has to clean up this mess

We are reposting an excellent commentary by an eye-witness to history. 

Roof, an astute observer with skills honed by a career in the Military, 

shares with us his observations.  We repost for your edification.

Presidents I've Known George Roof Chief Master Sergeant (Retired) US Air Force Because I am a "lifer" in the military, I've seen the impact of a President more than many of you can imagine. I enlisted with LBJ and saw just what a Democrat cluster flock was all about. I went to Vietnam and saw how we were constantly and incessantly  bombarded with micro-management from Washington that got thousands of military  people killed. I sometimes wonder if I'll get to heaven, but if I go to hell, I'm sure I'll  still be a few hundred floors above those bastards Robert McNamara, LBJ, John Kerry,  Jane Fonda, and yes, even the "hero" John McCain. After Johnson "abdicated" rather than having his ass waxed, I lived through  Nixon who was hawkish but allowed the generals (and there WERE a few real generals back then versus now) run the show. He was so out of touch  that he never knew North Vietnam was about to surrender when the Paris  Accord was presented. Only God could help us after Gerald Ford was beaten by Jimmy Peanuts  who'd been funded by Saudi money. The military was turned into  Section 8 and even the Whitehouse suffered the austerity. Then the light began to shine and Ronald Reagan swept into the fray.  He not only loved the country and the military, they loved him back.  Esprit d'corps was off the scale during his presidency. The Liberals  were slowly turning into socialists, however, and about this time all  the draft dodgers of the 1960's who'd been given amnesty by Jimmy  Peanuts were turning out college graduates with degrees in socialism. Bush 1 was an enigma from the CIA and though he never did much  either way, he NEVER DID MUCH EITHER WAY. Welcome to Bill Clinton. Clinton spent most of his two terms wagging the dog and creating the Oral Office, sending a bomber to blow up  Quaddafi's tent and killing a goat or two, while allowing the UN to  set up the infamous Black Hawk Down situation. He made history  by becoming only the second president to be impeached. I actually felt sorry for Bush 2. He was doomed to infamy from the start.  He thought most of America was still the rah rah patriots of WWII when  they were simply socialists waiting to feed him to the sharks. Then there came the Manchurian Candidate with a faked  (OK Democrats, let's say "of questionable origin" to assuage your PC  brains) birth certificate, who'd gotten a free ride through college under  a foreign student exemption, and whose college records and complete  life history had been sealed. (We know more about Thomas Jefferson's  bastard children than we do about Obama, Michelle, OR their two kids.) From his inaugural address, he slandered America and within days had  begun to encourage dissention of the races as well as slandering police who "acted stupidly." That was mild to the crap that would come in  doubling the national debt from what had been built by  ALL THE PREVIOUS PRESIDENTS COMBINED,  feeding us bullspit about how Muslims built this country, and nationalizing  American industries. Fueled by George Soros' money and using the  Air Force fleet as his personal charters, he appointed malcontents and  traitors into positions of authority. He trashed the Constitution by installing  "czars" (interesting he chose a title like that) to bypass Congressional authority.  By that time, Congress was completely corrupt on both sides of the aisle.  No one had balls to impeach this charlatan. Mysteriously, the lone outspoken conservative Supreme Court Justice  suddenly dies in his sleep at an Obama pal's hunting lodge and the  Supreme Court is evenly split. Finally, Congress shows some balls  and rejects Obama's nomination. The Libtards aren't worried because  the fix is in. Soros has paid demonstrators to cause turmoil at all the  Republican gatherings, Obama concedes that illegal aliens should  vote as they won't be prosecuted, and Soros-manufactured voting  machines are caught switching votes in certain precincts.  Hillary has cheated her way to the nomination and her lies are  completely ignored by the brainwashed minions of sycophants who  follow her. But a shocking thing happened on the way to the forum. Middle America had had enough and although the pollsters and the pipers tried to convince them not even to bother to vote, they were  fed up with the denizens of the swamp. It was time. Florida was  designated a "swing" state ignoring that all those old retirees living  in St. Petersburg, and the fed up Cuban Americans of Miami weren't  interested in their platform. Ohio and Pennsylvania, where coal  production was blacklisted and where Obama had ridiculed them  for "clinging to their Bibles and their guns," lay awaiting this supposed  "landslide" Hillary vote and creamed it. The Socialist world of the Democratic Party disintegrated.  An American who expressed unbridled love of country and respect  for police, firemen, and military steamrolled across the heartland and  the liberals realized their scheme was trashed. A CONSTITUTIONALIST  would be nominated to the Supreme Court and if the hag who'd claimed to retire if Trump were elected would actually leave, the Supreme Court  would have a massive majority of CONSTITUTIONALISTS for the next  40 - 50 years. Now, the same party who'd ridiculed Trump on his comments about  the election being rigged, started screaming that the election was  rigged. They even advocated having the election repeated. They  created mobs that burned and pillaged, stopped traffic, threatened murder, batter and rape of Trump supporters, and became the  anarchists that the socialist dream thrives upon. They run like  castrated pigs for safe zones and use diaper pins as their national  symbol. This is exactly what happens when political correctness takes  over and participation trophies are awarded to everyone. They  can't conceive how disgusting and subservient they have become.  Donald Trump may NOT be the best person for the job, but he's  such a welcome respite from the candy-assed whimps who've been running the swamp that it's refreshing to see. At the very  least, Donald Trump derailed the Socialist train and bought us  precious time. If he only does half of what he's promised, we'll  still be legions ahead of where Obama has dragged us.  Already, countries who held us in contempt are lining up to be  found in the favor of America. So for you liberal lurkers and you half-assed fence-sitters, kiss off.  You had your big hurrah and now your party is over. For you staunch  Republicans in office, don't gloat so much yourselves. You've been  put on notice by the American people that we're fed up with  ALL YOU BASTARDS and if you don't start putting America first,  you do so at your own peril. You might want to buy a copy of  George McGovern's autobiography and see how shocking and  humbling it can be for a professional politician to have to try  to find legitimate work once he falls from grace.  This election was pure, unadulterated AMERICAN.  Hillary got beaten and AMERICA WON THE ELECTION.  You can claim he's not "your president" all you want, but unless  you forfeit your American citizenship,  YES HE IS!!!! Go cry a river some place they need water.
