Democrats silent.........Ellison too......Democrats silent.

They aren't. But that's still no reason for Kavanaugh to get a pass to the Supreme Court with an allegation of attempted rape hanging over him. There are tons of other judges. Go find another one. You and
@AriFleischer need to be better than "Oh well," when it comes to rape. -
Not disagreeing, but another judge will be scrutinized the same as Kavanaugh and you and I both know it.....it was 30 yrs ago, even if true, we are presumed innocent until proven guilty.

Help me out here: So there's a time limit on attempted rape, is what you're saying? Or that we should just assume all judges Trump would pick have attempted to rape girls and women in their lifetime?
-
No. What I’m saying is that it was 30 yrs ago. Not that it’s ok by any means IF THE ALLEGATIONS ARE TRUE. However we are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
-
And that's why an actual investigation into Kavanaugh should be conducted, rather than rushing through things and shoving them under the rug.
-
Well remember when you tried to take advantage of me? I’m deeply affected by it and think we should bring it forward.

Update from Karen Monahan, one of 2 women who made recent accusations against
@Keithellison both of whom reported incident immediately after (one in a 911 call.) She Tweeted last night that Ellison is refusing to meet with her and investigatorpic.twitter.com/S8GSIQE0hg

More from
@keithellison accuser Karen Monahan. Just posted her doctor's record from 2017 that say she told him that Ellison had physically abused her. Not a peep of support from Gillibrand, Schumer or Harris- who have all said they "believe" the Kavanaugh accuser.pic.twitter.com/IIn2bvDPVI

Clearly, the Kavanaugh accuser double standard has been very upsetting for Ellison accuser Karen Monahan, who has been Tweeting a lot. She says she has been subjected to smears from
@MinnesotaDFL https://twitter.com/KarenMonahan01/status/1041899390401740800 … Here's a nasty Tweet from Ellison's own brother Ericpic.twitter.com/KcdlmC5h99

And I’d expect this would be a serious problem, if not disqualifying, for Gore if he ever pursued office or accepted a federal nomination position again. So...what’s your point? Does your playbook go more than one deep to shout “but a Clinton admin person” here? I’m guessing no.

The article stated she failed a polygraph test. Christine Ford passed...
-
What did she “pass” on the polygraph that she knew her name? She doesn’t remember anything else, not much to “pass” on. And why did she preemptively even take a polygraph, to help substantiate what she didn’t know? Zero credibility.
-
Not sure why word pass is in quotes. You pass or you fail. She passed one administered by a former FBI interrogator. Of course that’s not enough, is not entirely accurate & testimony under oath is for best. My question is why not take 2-3 weeks to investigate out further details?
-
The urgency here is arbitrary & specious. Sure, Grassley & McConnell keep saying this is plenty of time to prepare to testify & this is the 11th hour (as per their scheduled out plans) there’s a vote scheduled. Super duper. But now there’s this - & this merits inspection.
-
Criticize Feinstein all you want for holding a card to the end. Criticize the timing. That’s fair. But don’t cheat the process. The seat isn’t Kavanaugh’s to have or not, it isn’t GOP majority party property. SCOTUS is an institution & that institution merits highest hurdles.
-
And you have no clue as to who is credible & who isn’t here. You don’t have any statements from the affiants, you’ve not seen the confidential medical files notes from her therapist. Nobody has yet. So it’s reasonable to say this isn’t ripe for a dispensation yet. Agree?
-
There is nothing to prove at this point, she can’t remember anything about the alleged incident, seriously, after almost 40 yrs?
