          Mrs. Ford offered clear and concise responses to all questions, regardless of who posed them. Why is Mr. Kavanaugh having such a difficult time doing the same? The words “Yes” and “No” seem to continually escape him when the Democrats ask a question. What gives?

          Bravo, Dick. Kavanaugh keeps changing the question with an off point answer. He’s evasive, avoiding repeatedly responding to the question of whether he would invite an FBI probe. He’s scared shitless of an FBI probe, clearly. Now asking Knoblauch if she’s ever passed out drunk.

          "testimony" is not the same as "investigation". Would he as a judge expect no more in a case he was presiding over? Hell no. He'd rely on the FBI.
