GOP Sen. Jeff Flake: Judiciary Committee Must Hear From Kavanaugh Accuser Before Voting
Daily Beast, Sep 16, 2018

Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) said on Sunday that the Senate Judiciary Committee should pause its consideration of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh until the committee hears more from the woman who has accused him of sexual assault. “For me, we can’t vote until we hear more,” Flake, who sits on the judiciary committee, told The Washington Post.

Earlier Sunday, Christine Blasey Ford went public with her allegation against Kavanaugh, which dated back to their time in high school. Ford alleges that Kavanaugh pinned her down and groped her, then covered her mouth when she tried to scream. Kavanaugh has flatly denied the allegation.

The committee is planning to press forward with a vote on Kavanaugh’s nomination on Thursday. But a committee spokesman told the Post that Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) “is actively working to set up such follow-up calls with Judge Kavanaugh and Dr. Ford ahead of Thursday’s scheduled vote.

They should do like they were going to do with the op-ed.  lie detector test.  Get it over with in ten minutes.  Don't give legs to a story that cannot be proven or disproven. It was high school and she is the only 1

Go through every dollar she has, every political whim she has acted on, all notes from the therapist for her entire course of treatment.

Expose who she is and who is helping her.  If this means dragging her through the mud, so be it.   Make this a teachable moment on libel and sedition.
