I'm mad. I'm fired up. I want the republicans to fight back. I only have one vote but a buddy called me Friday to ask why it was postponed. He is a strong vote but needed to assuage his wife who had been watching propaganda. A few facts later she was informed and agreed.

I want Kavanaugh more now than I did when he was named. He was my third choice.

If anyone deserves the honor of being a justice he does.

Their going to ask her detailed questions. And expect detailed answers, regardless of her victim status.
If they do she will be with counsel. That will make it less likely they will elicit anything of value, beyond what has already been said.

Ok, so here's a question that's been nagging at me for the last few days. Bare with me for a second.

It's been widely circulated that Brett Kavanaugh has been interviewed six times previously by the FBI. Based on his CV, he's done some rather sensitive assistant council work for the Executive and Judicial branches of the US government. It seems to me that some of the FBI interviews had to include a polygraph in order to be granted clearance to view necessary information to perform his job. It is my understanding, that the highest levels of security clearances require a "Lifestyle" polygraph, which I have been told is the most invasive and uncomfortable of the polygraphs given. Based on the assumption that Kavanaugh has received such a polygraph, the FBI has already been through all of this previously and has not found anything that would disqualify him from receiving a very high level security clearance.

Does this line of thinking seem reasonable?

Grassley went after the guy in Rhode Island for two reasons. One because it needs to be done and two it's a shot across the bow to Ford. Now if you lie it's going to be prosecuted. This is going to make her very queasy if her handlers let her know of it that is.

I think they are keeping her isolated and in a lock down type of environment so she is only able to know what they tell her. Which is why she didn't know about the invitation to take her testimony anywhere at anytime.

The dems fucked up way over their heads imo. I can see a convergence of shit all coming neatly together to blow up in their face.

Get ready for the Jubilee coming by the end of the week people! I can hear the thunder of retribution rolling in the distance!

Nothing of value has been said so far.

Kavanaugh isn't under investigation in this matter, because there is nothing provable or prosecutable in this entire issue.

What is under investigation is the FBI. This is the last, best opportunity for the FBI to show that it serves justice, rule of law, and the premises that this country was founded upon.

They either say that they find nothing sufficient or actionable to overturn the process or they will have proven themselves no more trustworthy than Stasi.

Well, as expected, another accuser has come out of the woodwork (as found on thelibertydaily.com), but this one is claiming that a big donor of DiFi sexually abused her years ago. . .

DOD whistle-blower: Dianne Feinstein covered up sexual assault by donor in 1990 — Video

I watched the first video embedded in the article, and she, unlike blasey-ford, comes across as genuine and believable.

Kavanaugh I believe was asked if he would submit to one during his questioning and I think he replied he would do what ever the committee wanted. I would think had he done what you are surmising he would have said so at that time.

interview this morning w Sen Graham

a little after 4:00 in, Graham says the FBI supplemental review will be done Mon or Tue .

(next 2 days)

Graham also says he is going to pursue why Ford didn't know about the offer to come to her for the comm interview

Only thing disappointing in this interview is that the tone is still portraying Ford as a victim of the DEMs.

2 things.

1- Showing the enemies your hand ahead of time is dumb. Why not just wait until the FBI is finished with their task, then BAM!, we're voting.

2- Either Ford was lying, or her lawyers hid the info from her. I'm betting she was lying.

A slight tangent perhaps.
The FBI investigation needs to include social media. If media content was changed or deleted, by an individual or corporation it should be looked at.

I think unchecked social media companies are dangerous to our country. The telephone can be misused, if so it is our legal system that steps in to right wrongs or protect the innocent.

Media platforms are begging for legislation! The bill of rights applies to any media platforms or we are sunk. The two prong approach of porous borders along with censorship is a fast track into socialism.

I also noticed this Peterson video the other day.
The ad in the video will be shown to multitudes of hard working voters who keep there noses to the grind stone supporting themselves/family, not politically minded folks in a gun forum. Social media, fake news, sound bites, are powerful along with high school in-crowd click mentality America has devolved into.

My take was that she was either a brilliant actress or an imbecile. She didn't strike me as too brilliant.

She is a tool of the left.

I feel portraying her as much of a victim as Kavanaugh due to the Democrats power lust is a damn smart move. Beating up on her by disparaging her will backfire on the republicans in a very painful way. If she’s lying it will come out.
And when it does the republicans can act shocked and saddened to learn it.
I think they have played this situation more to their advantage than anything I can remember.

She's lying through her teeth. Sociopaths can do that and still genuinely believe what they are lying about.

Anyone in this country who's turned on the news at any point in the past two weeks knows damned good and well that that offer was on the table.

She's lying.

Interestingly enough, my neighbor, the retired Federal Agent just stopped by.
(asked us not to shoot on the 15th as he has a wedding at his cabin)
We talked about the scope of any "investigation".
She has no witnesses, a foggy recollection of location and what appears to be an agenda.
He said it's not the job if the FBI to investigate sex crimes but that of local government.
And there's really nothing they can do other than gather information and deliver facts, not conjecture.

I was having a bit of grammar Nazi fun at your expense.

bear v. To hold up; support. v. To carry from one place to another; transport. v. To carry in the mind; bear a grudge.

bare adj. Lacking the usual or appropriate covering or clothing; naked: a bare arm. adj. Exposed to view; undisguised: bare fangs. adj. Lacking the usual furnishings, equipment, or decoration: bare walls.

"Bear with me" suggests "consider this." "Bare with me" suggests getting nekkid with you.

Know what made the Dems walk out during the hearings for Kavanaugh? They thought they would tear him apart instead from the beginning he exposed them for what they are and why their doing it and it scared the hell out of them that this guy will fight for his reputation and his family. Then the snakes slithered away.
