        And if she had done it in July, he would have called it a preemptive smear job. It doesn't matter to Hatch if it happened or not. He would take a dozen attempted rapes by Kavanaugh and react the exact same way: by trying to confirm him.

        Orrin Hatch is on the 11th hour of life, and personally I don't think that awful fart should be taking part in making any decisions that will impact the lives of so many for generations

        He really is a POS. People think because he has some witty intern running his twitter account he's not a bad dude - but the guy stinks in every decision. He's a hack.

        What "11th hour?" It's an artificial deadline imposed by @GOP @ChuckGrassley @SenMajLdr @OrrinHatch for no legitimate reason other than they wanted to do it this way. There are days, weeks, months, if we take the Garland nomination as precedent, even years worth of hours left.

        What does it matter which hour it occurs? Does that somehow change the accusation?

        Since Brett went to all male schools until college, the ability to find 65 women that knew him while he was of high school age in 24 hrs, highly unlikely.

        This situation is complex. Clearly there were negotiations to have the woman appear. She did not. 65 witnesses for a boy who attended an all male school. Coming forward overnight. Please spare me your indignation.

        Grassley: "Anything damaging in your past we should know about?" Kavanaugh: "Well, I did try to rape someone once." Grassley: "Did you try to rape everyone?" Kavanaugh: "Excuse me?" Grassley: "Get me a list of all the people you didn't try to rape. We can fix this."

        Orrin Hatch is pretending nobody knew about these allegations until recently. So then how did his party know they needed to find 65 women who knew Kavanaugh to sign a letter about what a swell guy he was in high school? https://twitter.com/aterkel/status/1040682054168588288 …

        So Orrin Hatch is OK with an accused rapist because the charges came at a particular time? So #GOP has now said DOJ is not allowed to investigate Republicans and certainly not Republicans whose accusations come at an inconvenient time?

        The sooner Hatch shuffles off this mortal coil the better.
