I do not like it that Grassley seems to think he should give this woman and her little partner-in-crime DiFi the time of day.  The charge is ancient; it cannot be proven and she is an obvious democrat plant.

It is an insult to Kavanaugh and all of us to even consider this bogus charge.

Here's the thing -- we don't know everything Grassley knows.  If Grassley believes the evidence will suggest that it isn't true, then he's actually doing Kavanaugh a favor by giving him a chance to rebut this publicly, in front of the entire country.  The alternative is having this accusation hang over Kavanaugh, essentially unrebutted in the eyes of most of the public, for the rest of his life.  It is entirely possible Grassley believes that when all is said and done, the Democrats will come out of this looking terrible.  There may be a lot of facts of which we are unaware.

Just looking at Kavanaugh...he doesn't exactly seem like he was a party animal in high school.  Seems more like the nerdy type that may not even have gotten invited to many parties in the first place.  I'd hold off on judging Grassley on this until we see how it all plays out.  It is entirely possible that Kavanaugh's rebuttal/denial will be very powerful, and will really hurt the Dems going into the midterms.

Obviously, that may not be the case as well.  But we here simply don't know, so it seems premature to criticize Grassley.

This doesn't look good as far as a vote on Thurs.

I was just on twitter and couldn't believe how many Repubs are ready to throw Kavanaugh under the bus so Trump can hurry and nominate someone else...do they not realize the next nominee will be attacked by the Dems too!

The other problem is who would want to go thur this process? The Marxists are willing to destroy
the country. This is why EVERYONE needs to vote GOP in Nov. We can not allow the Marxist to
regain power.

They know the democrats intend to push the process past the midterms, when they believe they have a shot at taking congress. Whether the GOP stands by Kavanaugh or not Grassley at all costs needs to speed things up.

This is all about Roe v Wade.

Of course.  And while Kavanaugh would likely uphold Roe as settled law,  Amy Coney Barrett strikes me as the sort of judicial activist that might just vote to abolish it.    The Dems should be careful what they wish for.

If you think Barrett is an activist judge then you did not watch her confirmation hearing.

I agree.   The threat of the Democrats regaining power is more dire than it has EVER been.  They are literally 'out for blood'....OUR blood... and will be from now on.  Everyone needs to catch a clue and get a whiff of that reality for the sake of the nation and of future generations.  We can not allow the rats to become the majority in Congress this November.

You're right!

It sure isn't because of anything the Pubs in Congress have done.

That's right.  Whether you like Trump or loathe him,  get out and vote this November and urge others to do so.

Whether you like or loathe your local "RINO" Congressperson,  get out and vote this November and urge others to do so.

The Kavanaugh battle shows the stakes as the Dems see it.   They will literally destroy honorable men for political advantage.  Only a resolute and united People can effectively oppose such amorality.

It is possible they have information that proves she isn't telling the truth. If that's the case they should have her before the committee and set the record straight. I know, it isn't very likely but it is possible.

They should have the vote and ignore this ploy.  They will be condemned for doing so by the libs and dems but who cares.  I don't.

Brett should not be put through a circus like Justice Thomas was.  Even though he was confirmed, it left a lot of ugliness on the reputation of a good man and his wife had to suffer through all that.

I'm still mad about it.

Absolutely.  The dems had every opportunity to question Kavanaugh about everything in his life.

And they did so.  They could not find a scintilla of anything wrong.

If the Republicans cave and give this scummy democrat activist woman and her mentor, the equally scummy Dianne Feinstein the time of day on this charge I will be so angry and disappointed.

Unfortunately, Thomas was smeared as soon as those allegations were made.  The hearing gave him a chance to refute them.  The same with Kavanaugh -- he was wrongly smeared when Feinstein and the WaPo dumped this story in the first place.  If he doesn't testify, the allegation is going to be considered unanswered by a whole lot of people.

Grassley should just tell the libtards, that the accuser should present their evidence by noon on Sep 20, or just STFU. And then proceed to a vote as planned. Kavenaugh has already categorically denied the accusations. Now it’s up the her, contrary to her lawyer’s stupid comment that they don’t have to prove crap.

So now she's saying: “I thought he might inadvertently kill me”.

https://apnews.com/e2c35c0fb46f4464bcda77441caf1f7b/Woman-accusing-Kavanaugh-of-sexual-misconduct-comes-forward

On the flip side it might provide an opportunity for Kavanaugh to clear his name. She may come across as a nut when asked detailed questions. There maybe other people she's falsely accused. Who knows...

Oh, Kavanaugh could definitely clear his name; plus a lot of unsavory stuff would probably come out about this woman.

But I don't want to do this.  She does not deserve a hearing.  I don't know why Grassley would mess around with this.  He's already stated that the charge was not brought timely and there was plenty of opportunity for that to have happened. 

It's not fair to Brett to give this woman any time at all.

Sadly, the Republican party has let set in cement the precedent that "The serious of the charge is what matters" when levied by a Democrat/Leftist.

That same rule however does not apply when levied by Conservatives/Republicans/Independents at Democrats/Leftist (i.e.: Hillary's e-mail server/pedophelia accusations et al.).

I don't care.  It can be gone into after he's confirmed.  But, guess what, once he's confirmed this woman will crawl back into whatever hole she crawled out of.

No sane person will consider her allegation unanswered.  Brett has already answered it.

We cannot let these people hijack this nomination by a sleazy Anita Hill type attack.

This lefttard can’t prove squat. Has no other witness and in fact has more witness against her allegations. Don’t give her or her delaying, leftrats the time of day. Just vote.

Amen.  Grassley has made his case.  Now he needs to hang tough and forget about some stupid phone calls.
