Turtle Boy giving a presser. Now Grassley up. Whole Repub Senate Judiciary Committee is giving a presser now.

A second sexual deviant will be put on the Court by the Party of family values. Think about that for a minute.

Roe?

I thought this was about Kavanaugh.

Are you admitting this adventure is the new norm?

No. Cute try though.

Why do you think people are up in arms on the right over this. I will give you a clue it isnt because they have some deep affection for Brett Kavanaugh. He could be any conservative judge and they would be fighting the exact same way. They want Roe overturned and they think he will do it.

My objection is to him specifically and I have given my reasons why.

I'd say she should vote for special K. But then again, I'm the guy who says if you're way out of the playoffs...take a dive for a better draft pick next year.

Roe is always going to exist. It's too good of a money maker for Republicans. They will destroy a woman's right to choose while Roes stays on the books. And that will be very successful and continue to keep the tap of money open.

The presser is pretty entertaining.

They found nothing wrong with Kavanaugh. Hatch thinks he's the greatest nominee ever.
 
Re: SCOTUS 13: Confirmation consternation contemplation

It appears the K hearings overall were helping the Ds for the mid terms. But the Flake extension appears to be riling up the GOP base - that may have worked some in their favor.

Heitkamp votes for K and she's persona non grata to the Ds forever. Heitkamp votes no and she's a D poster child and will be looked after.

jfc.

I know the FBI was short on time (or whatever excuse they are using) but it would appear any moron with high speed internet can now out investigate the FBI. Maybe we should just let Trump cut their funding and disband them because they are flipping worthless.

I am about to say something I havent said in quite a while...nice job media. Keep putting these stories out there. Push the narrative until the bitter end. Then do it again in a month, and in two years. This is disgusting and if the politicians and the FBI wont tell the truth then someone should.

I have. They are all hypocrites. Until the Trumpers are all gone I will do what I never said I will do and vote straight party ticket. The GOP and its enablers need to be gone.

He's a sexual deviant. Just like Thomas. And the party of family values is pushing him through.

The lies these folks on the judiciary committee from the Republican side are sick. Cornyn even used Klobuchar and what she has said and twisted it into his own sick view of the world.

Nice country, folks. Nice country.

Misogyny lives just like racism lives. They are alive, well, and healthy. Long live white males who go to prep school.

Because Gorsuch was put through the same thing. Oh wait...

If this is the new normal, it's only because the Senate abdicated its duty on Garland and was rewarded for it by GOP voters.

No.

See, we don't rattle all or nothing. We want health care for women. That's the sick thing we want. The right? They want a poor raped brown girl in Texas to go to term.

That's two very different things.

If they had nominated Gorsuch 2 this stuff never would have happened.

A D voting yes is only persona non grata if the vote matters. The party won't give a shiat if there are already 51 GOP votes.
