      There’s nothing else. No more corroboration, nothing. Just requests to delay. End this. Vote and let the chips fall.

      "Vote and let the chips fall." But if they don't fall the way you want, then, and only then--after the dispositive vote on a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the land--*then* you want an FBI investigation into the underlying questions. Listen to yourself.

      If Dems believed this was serious they would use and participate in the Committee’s power to investigate. They maneuvered these claims around it, lied about doing so, then refused to ask questions in interviews of the subjects. Because the point is delay.

      When one argument--it's definitely not true--weakens, you pick another: Dems should have investigated further earlier. Yet you don't want any further investigation *now*. Why not? What's the problem with delay? You are all over the map, tweet to tweet, my friend.

      No. The accusation isn’t credible. It was maneuvered around the investigative process for the purpose of scuttling and delaying. Dems have demonstrated their insincerity in seeking an investigation other than as a delay tactic.

      Let's leave it here and revisit in 6 months. Me: Further investigation may have been warranted earlier, and definitely is now. You: Further investigation *was* warranted earlier, and--if you don't like vote--will be again in the future. But it isn't *right now* because "delay."

      And also because the actual alleged victim’s testimony is not worth considering by itself andcyskrn in its own terms, but must be folded into some meta-narrative of Dem perfidy. It’s as if she said nothing at all.

      It was worth considering. We’ve been given no good reason to credit it. And can’t examine the supposed reasons we ought to credit it, such as the notes from 2012. All we know about them is that they “corroborate” her by contradicting her.

      Frankly, I think Kavanaugh's calendar is corroboration. It has Kavanaugh having drinks with Judge and PJ (two boys named by Ford). https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2018/09/brett-kavanaughs-calendar-for-july-1-1982-go-to-timmys-for-skis-with-judge.html …

          He’s at best a repeated liar too. Not even a reliable conservative beliefs that he writes about scoring with women in a yearbook as some compliment to her. He repeatedly lies little lies about his past, nothing definitive on the main item but it’s a pattern.

          If I were a cynical man, I'd say that he's so close to a 5th vote to overturn Roe that he can taste it.

          Also corroborates Blasey Ford's statement that Kavanaugh hung out at Columbia Country Club. Kavanaugh family apparently not members, but Blaseys & Inghams were at that time 1/2

          Family of Garrett, who he identified as present at that party, were also CCC members (my info not absolutely definitive as to 1982, but his mother remained a member as surviving spouse after father's death in 1997) 2/2
