    Rand Paul isn't on the Senate Judiciary Committee BTW.

    You really have turned into one of the most vocal defender of Trump and his cronies on this Forum. It is remarkable you have ascertained the truth of Blasey Ford's allegations without ever hearing her under oath or Kavanaugh's under oath testimony in response.
    Okay. Lindsay Graham and Orin Hatch then.

    LOL!

    You just don't like that I do well debating things I don't even feel that strongly about. You would feel better if I was a Trump worshipper so you didn't feel like such a failure at this.

    I created a thread with an OP link alleging that Kavanaugh is a conspiracy theorist. Didn't that make you happy?

    Last I heard, the Republicans on the Judiciary Committee don't want to question Ford personally - they want to hire an outside counsel to do so:

    But they're eager to avoid the spectacle of 11 Republican men cross-examining a woman who says she's been victimized by a man. Doing so would almost certainly evoke the panel's handing of Hill and potentially alienate suburban women voters who could decide the elections and control of the House and Senate.

    Republicans are considering bringing in an outside counsel, possibly a woman, to question Ford.

    The politics of a bunch of old guys attacking a woman who has alleged a sexual assault doesn't seem very appealing all of a sudden.

    Stop being cynical.

    Just because something is typical doesn't mean it is appropriate or moral or just. If Americans learn nothing else from this administration, then they should at least learn that lesson well.

    I don't intend to normalize death threats--against either of them--to the point that we shame them when they are traumatized by those death threats. I challenge you to say the same.

    It is already normal whether you like it or not. How many death threats do you think Trump gets per day?

    Stop pretending not to be cynical. This is the real world.

    That has not stopped Trump. He must not have gotten the memo. LOL

    ford has not accepted anything. Or better yet, the DNC lawyers haven't. Go ahead and point to one of my predictions that was wrong...Ill wait.

    Committee source says they’ve contacted five people alleged to be at party. 4 deny any knowledge of the party and allegations. 5th person - Dr. Ford - is the only one who has not provided them a statement. #Kavanaugh

    I don't suppose it could be because they are assswipes who don't want to get involved? NAH, that COULDN'T be it could it? Or perhaps so drunk they don't remember? I suppose you also think it's just fine the committee is not allowing ANY other witnesses, ONLY Ford and K? Or refusal to allow FBI to get involved? THAT would be because they don't want to lend ANY credibility to Ford's statements. Yessir, a real unbiased bunch on that committee. And you agree with the whole travesty. You are as morally corrupt as that committee.

    So, you're basically admitting that you have no convictions at all.

    You're merely trying to provoke reader reaction. You're trying to satisfy a twisted compulsion: A feeling that "any attention, is good attention".

    This must be the emotional warmth, which life has long denied you.

    It seems your accuser doesn't even know this, how are you to find a witness to something that has no time or place? You really are stupid aren't you?
