I think the vote tomorrow is to lock in some positions https://www.sacbee.com/latest-...rticle219172735.html Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says all 51 Republican senators supported the motion to proceed with Kavanaugh's nomination. But it was approved by voice, without a roll call to put senators on record. In fact, GOP senators were slowing Kavanaugh's final confirmation for at least a week. President Donald Trump agreed with their request to launch a "supplemental" FBI investigation into the allegations. McConnell calls Kavanaugh "most qualified and most impressive" and says, "This is a nomination that deserves to move forward." xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "I’d be happy they could keep hysterical protesters out of the Senate" good one | |||

Now all they need is 51 Senators to vote on the Motion to Confirm. That’s where any one of them can name the price. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way.

The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

Fuck Flake. What a limp dick. And any other Republican that doesn't have the decision making skills to handle this. Trump is correct, the Dems are laughing their asses off behind closed doors. Everyone knows the scam they're running. And we sit here powerless to stop it. Roe-V-Wade and the 2nd-A drives the desperation on the Communist Left. The commies are all-in on this fight. And the first rule is: There are no rules. The good news is this: We're still in the fight. It ain't over yet. Hang in there, Judge Kavanaugh. When the smoke clears, hopefully it will be Justice Kavanaugh. Then, perhaps, we'll get the last laugh. ... | |||

This is 3D Chess and I can barely follow Chinese checkers. I have faith that Judge Kavanaugh will be our next SCOTUS Justice, and that Amy Coney Barrett will soon follow, when, by the Grace of God, Justice Ginsberg sees the Light and retires. And that John Roberts repents and supports Liberty and the Constitution as written for the rest of his days. ____________________ | |||

I read this earlier and love it. Trump saw a fighter in Kavanaugh yesterday (like we all did) and he knows that's exactly what it takes to defeat the left. My favorite part of Kavanaugh's opener was how he basically said he doesn't care what way the vote goes, he is not going to quit. That is half of their plan after all, to stop him or get him to withdraw (by their goons threatening his family, how very Stalinist of them). Also to send a warning to other potential nominees that they are not safe. Kavanaugh's response, even though his name and reputation are destroyed, his family threatened, was to stick it right in their eye. THAT took some intestinal fortutude.  | |||

This is one thing that has puzzled me; that these feminist commie protestors have all-access backstage passes for all of this shit. We need some counter-protestors in there to "counter" these professional goons.

Thinking outside the box a bit. Flake’s lunchtime flip was a bit odd...especially after the statements he made earlier in the morning. Politically, out of the “undecideds” he has the least to loose, not up for re-election and only his robust 2020 run at play. Perhaps he was muscled into this by his dem buddies, giving those that are in a pickle, a bit of political cover. Don’t look at Maine, Alaska, or Arizona. Look at North Dakota and West Virginia. I know nothing of WV politics, but know a bit about Nodak. Those two are facing “Sophie’s Choice”. “Justice Kavanaugh”. Get used to saying that because it’s gonna be. Despite my differances here, good, honest, moderated political commentary can always be counted on. -------------------------------------- "There are things we know. There are things we dont know.

I still say the D's are afraid of the final vote. For all the media back and forth about the R's not having the votes, the D's have been pulling out all stops to prevent it. Hmmm, I wonder why? Things change all the time in DC, but one thing is certain for both parties. People in office like to get re-elected. The longer this goes on, the more polling for D's in vulnerable seats will show a groundswell of support for their R opponents. They are going to get leaned on big time, and some will do what is best for them above all else. | |||

SO just to clarify, this seventh FBI check is somehow more valuable for cover than the other six background checks were? There's a small handful of Repub's who are absolutely disgusting, and who have 'zero' reason to be an elected official in Washington DC. As I noted before, 'if' the Repub's keep the senate and add to their majority after November, the GOP leadership should wage jihad against Murkowski and Collins. Eliminate them from everything having to do with authority and decision making in Washington turning them into breathing door mats. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom.

There are half a dozen Senate seats held by God Damned Commies up for re election in November in states Trump won by big margins. Those Senators fear having to vote no on Kavanaugh, and fear having to vote yes. Putting the confirmation off past the election relieves that pressure. Maybe the election results in a God Damned Commie majority. If the seat is still open, they can deal for a more acceptable candidate, maybe like Merrick Garland. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way.

I agree. As I said earlier, her story is full of inconsistencies, contradictions, and holes, but no one will dare question her aggressively. The FBI, with their anonymity and authority, might do so. Careful what you wish for, Democrat scum. zin everything they have done with Kavanaugh, the Democrats have been playing to their most extreme leftist constituencies-- leftists who make a racket, call enormous attention to themselves, and, in general, cause the Democrats to way overplay their hand. Middle class and working class America, with which the media and the Democrats are completely out of touch, is repulsed and angry by Kavanaugh's ugly mistreatment. It's good that it is all bleeding closer and closer to the midterms. The Democrats are going to get their asses whipped. ______________________________________________________ "You get much farther with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." | |||

Nope. Not gonna happen. Kavanaugh is going to be confirmed and Barrett is in the on deck circle. Barrett will get the nod once it's realized that RBG has been room temperature for months now.  _____________________________________________________________________ “One of the common failings among honorable people is a failure to appreciate how thoroughly dishonorable some other people can be, and how dangerous it is to trust them.” – Thomas Sowell | |||

No, we need Marshals with guns to bodily throw out any shouting protesters. The Senate Chambers is not a place for raucous protesting--it is a place where our Senators do their work and it must be kept quiet and calm; if the protesters want to do their thing, they can do it outside. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

Saw one headline tonight, that Ford's GoFundMe page, which she just happened to mention in her statement, is doing well. What the hell does she need a GoFundMe page for? You know the Dems are picking up the tab for all this. At least, we now have an answer to what's in it for her. If, like most fair-minded people you are appalled by the Dems behavior, keep in mind that their goal is even more disgusting, the continued, unrestricted ability to keep killing babies in the womb. | |||
