This is truly insidious behavior on the part of the democrats.

As angry as I am and I'm sure all you are, I can only imagine what is going through Kavanaugh’s mind. His poor daughters are getting a nice lesson on just how vile the left is.

Hopefully, my own daughters, and the daughters of millions of others across the country are also getting a nice lesson on just how vile the left is.

I like the letter. Never Surrender or retreat! Victory or Death!

Just like William B. Travis, whose memory is still revered in these parts.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

One of the things I've been wondering is what in the world was Ford thinking? Did she think this was going to be easy, and that Kavanaugh would just roll over and cave? She's bringing an action that threatens everything he has, everything he is, and probably most of what he wants in life. She's bringing it to a man of obvious character and very considerable achievement in the very arena in which this will play out; he's been a lawyer and a federal judge, for crying out loud, and knows the game inside and out. He's demonstrably brilliant and clear-thinking, and decisively articulate. And she's bringing something that wouldn't make it past a lowly prosecutor's office for a criminal charge due to lack of substance, evidence, witness verification and on and on, not to mention being way past the statute of limitations. What was she thinking? What did they tell her to convince her it was a good idea?

I really appreciate Judge Kavanaugh standing up to do what is right and not back down despite the hideous insults to which he and his family are being subjected. He had to know and expect that the Democrats would pull out all of the stops, but I really feel for his wife and daughters, who didn't ask for this. I'm praying for them all.

She was told she had to do it for the "sisterhood"... and she's obviously having second thoughts. I still don't think she will actually testify.

The simple answer could very well be: she is just not very bright.

It worked in Alabama against Moore.....where did his accusers disappear to after the election??? at this point I am totally surprised that only one other accuser has come forth.

The left wants campaign videos of white male Repub Senators going after a poor woman who was the victim of a sexual assault. They don't get that if women are asking the tough questions.

GOP needs to handle this correctly if not they risk losing a lot of the female vote. They need to treat her with respect and hear her story. Once they prove she is fabricating the story, then they need to hammer her and make her an example.

McConnell just said on the Senate floor that there will be a vote of the full Senate, up or down.

This after detailing the outrages and indignities and perfidy of the Democrats. He sounded serious!

I also see these shenanigans going against the the Dems in the midterm elections.


If he ruled in that manner, it's a million times worse than drunkenly whipping his Dick out at a party and doesn't deserve a seat on the court. I am quite sure he doesn't let petty partisan crap sway his voting.

What is the point of this letter?
She says nothing new. And does anyone think it wasn't written by her lawyers?

She had nothing whatsoever to do with the writing of that letter, apart from signing it.

Did she write that letter while on her cross-country road trip?
Or has she suddenly overcome her fear of flying? Roll Eyes

So what is alleged that Mark Judge did to her? What is she accusing him of?
