Grassley Announces Monday Vote on Kavanaugh After Rejecting Further Talks With Ford

http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/09/grassley-scrubs-talks-with-ford-schedules-monday-vote.html

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley appears to have ended the halting talks with Dr. Christine Blasey Ford about testifying next week about her allegations of sexual assault against Brett Kavanaugh. After setting a sudden 10:00 PM deadline for agreement with his terms and rejecting further talks with Ford or her lawyers, Grassley has reportedly scheduled a Committee vote on the confirmation for Monday.

More kabuki theatre. One Dem after another, maybe simultaneously, will raise points of order and motions to adjourn. Grassley will let it all play out while the sandman watches.

Grassley just tweeted that he has granted the extension to the Ford woman. I don't know what this means for the vote on Monday.

It will be must see-TV.

Tweeter and @jack are just playing games since they are part of the leftist cabal.

I hate the freakin' Repukes.   Gutless wonders the whole lot of 'em.

NOPE!

Grassley has caved in AGAIN.

The committee meeting is postponed:

Once again, I ask in exasperation:
Can't anybody here play this game?

It means he doesn't have the votes needed yet.

[InHeavenThereIsNoBeer]

They want one more day to think it over

Would it help to confuse it if we run away more ?

I think it's highly possible you are correct. I'm thinking there are a few waverers who will only vote for Kavanaugh  if Ford gets her hearing.
The Dems are clearly trying to delay, and after a certain period of time, enough is enough.
I just hope the Pubbies have the votes.

Yup.

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

We mean it this time! We're super serial!

The FINAL deadline, or the FINAL FINAL or the FINAL FINAL FINAL?

Yep.  Just when I thought they had finally grown a pair, they fold like a cheap suit. 

Well, they aren't called the Stupid Party for nothing. 

And people wonder why I won't vote for them in November.

@CatherineofAragon

Cruz and Beatoff the fake Hispanic O'Rourke debate. There's a thread on the Texas Board.

@austingirl

Thanks, I recorded and watched this morning.  What a beat down.

He may have them for the committee, but McConnell probably doesn't have Murkowski for the floor vote.  She is using her vote to shove a stick in the spokes.  I maintain McConnell can burn that vote, giving a 50/50 total vote, with Pence in the big chair.

ETA:  I sure am glad McCain is finally out.  He's usually the holdout.

[skeeter]

Predictable.

And an example of why I don't mind Trump's tweeting. At least we get a shot or two in before the inevitable surrender.

[RetBobbyMI]

The FINAL deadline, or the FINAL FINAL or the FINAL FINAL FINAL?

But then again, subject to change.

The "new red line" deadline is 2.30pm today (Saturday).

As I post this, 2'22" to go.

Will Grassley cave again?

[Cyber Liberty]

The FINAL deadline, or the FINAL FINAL or the FINAL FINAL FINAL?

I love deadlines!  I especially love the "Whooshing" noise they make as they fly by.  I think we're just a couple of hours before the next Whoosh.

@mrpotatohead

That was the Dems’ bright new hope, lol?
