I think when you read the full quote the meaning changes. What they gave the FBI was the scope of the investigation, not the allegations.

not to debate this issue much, but Flake said their scope was current credible allegations, that certainly implies Ford's allegation was credible. I am sensitive to that because I think Ford's story is a complete fabrication. you can have last word if you want, better things to discuss now peace | |||

Are you guys just about done gnashing your teeth and pulling your hair out? Seems as if all of that worry and concern was unwarranted, and things are playing out exactly as planned.  | |||

Meanings, not intentions, are what should be the basis of decisions. Therefore judges should be calling "balls and strikes," not trying to divine what someone intended. Here is a very good explanation on the topic, for those that actually care about the Constitution and the law, rather than trying manipulate them based on personal bias/desires: http://www.proconservative.net...Interpretation.shtml Again, if you are advocating for manipulation of the meaning of the Constitution and laws, as written, then you are advocating for the destruction of the very liberty the Constitution was intended to protect. However, you statements show once again, it's not just the "left" who wishes to ignore the Constitution as written, when you find it inconvenient, and there are just as many on the "right" who are willing to ignore the proper processes laid out in the Constitution when they find it expedient to get their desired outcome through the courts, rather than the Amendment and legislative processes laid out in the Constitution.

I wish "credible" had been the standard. If so, no investigation would have ever been conducted. . | |||

Without enough Americans seeing this for exactly what it was, and expressing anger about it,Kavanaugh could have been thrown under the bus. Bork was. I am glad to see people showing their outrage over this clown show,not only here but all over the internet. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

Oh no criticism or debate intended. I was just posting the way I read it is all. I've appreciated your posts in this thread so please keep them coming. “Everybody wants a Sig in the sheets but a Glock on the streets.” -bionic218 04-02-2014 | |||

I'm not talking about the outrage. That is 100% justified. I'm talking about the worry and breathlessness over every little detail that was obviously part of the overall plan. The sky is falling! It's not, it never was, and here we are. | |||

Like incompetent criminals, The Democrats couldn't plan their way out of a wet paper bag, the pure out and out lies by the three women are so obvious now; Democrat "activists" being advised by Democrat lawyers/politicians. It seems the media is giving up on this whole charade, now they are focusing on Trump's taxes, AGAIN  "I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965 | |||

^^^ To the point. The "Sky" never falls. But, the tactic is to get people focused of the falling sky, while the GDCs slowly undermine everything good that this Republic is built upon. That belief is my continual and ever-present admonition and in everything of which I speak, and the motivation to do so.

What I like to see from members, in a situation such as this, is confidence and defiance. I like for members to bolster each other. If this were a real battle- a life-or-death physical confrontation- would you want to be around people who go all Bill-Paxton-in-Aliens on you? "WE'RE SCREWED, MAN!! WE'RE TOAST!! THAT'S IT!! GAME OVER!! GAME OVER!!!!" Seriously, who wants to be exposed to that kind of shit? Don't be cynical. Instead, be resolute. Keep your fears to yourself. Buoy up your comrades. Defy the enemy. Laugh in their Goddamned faces. Victory will be that much sweeter, and you will have demonstrated your resolve for all to see. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

Here is what Democrats and the anti-Kav crowd accomplished with their demand for an investigation. Some that believed her, though not necessarily that Kavanaugh was involved, no longer believe her at all (copy-n-pasted Tweets):
Thread on Twitter: I believed Dr. Ford More agreement, in follow-ups, than criticism, last I looked. Incl. from others who've changed their minds for similar reasons. They screwed up. Tried to hard. Sank their own leaky boat. N.B.: As of the last Senate hearing I was willing to believe she likely suffered something. Now I, too, am firmly convinced it was a put-up job perpetrated by the left--perhaps with Democrat collusion. "America is at that awkward stage.

well, well, well https://www.breitbart.com/big-...o-53-to-decide-vote/ Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) signaled in an interview published Thursday that decades-old sexual misconduct allegations against Brett Kavanaugh will not play a major role in his vote on the judge’s Supreme Court confirmation. Manchin, a key Democrat swing vote, lamented the Senate Judiciary Committee’s handling of its investigation into allegations against Kavanaugh, describing the previous few weeks as “horrible” and a “circus.” “ I am looking at the gentleman as an adult from 22 to 53 , thirty-one years of professional service,” Manchin told Al-Jazeera. “I am looking at him as a father. As a person in a community, how he interacts with his community. I am trying to put the human side to it.” xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx is there a hint in there ? anybody ? there is a video of Manchin saying that at the link in the video Manchin says he is looking "for clarity" in the report. At the time of this statement, Manchin had not read the report yet | |||

Applicable to all the bitches - Schumer, Booker, Harris, DiFi, and the rest of the GDCs.  Or like "Operation Market Garden", they tried for a "Bridge Too Far"... | |||
