    Feinstein: "Chairman Grassley today said there would be only two witnesses invited to testify at the Kavanaugh hearing next week on sexual assault allegations. Compare that to the 22 witnesses at the 1991 Anita Hill hearing and it’s impossible to take this process seriously."

        ... the number of witnesses for Anita Hill was *precisely the problem* that turned the hearing into a circus. Feinstein sat on this letter for months and waited until the 11th hour to release it - it is she who didn't take the process seriously.

        A travesty, but not surprising. Then again, Kavanaugh has been a squirrelly, evasive witness in other matters, so he may not do so well. Will GOP care? Note: Hatch basically said he’d vote for BK even if he’d completed the rape.

        They don't have any witnesses to call. This lady can't even remember the place, the year, how old she was, who was there or if was 2 or 4 guys. The one name she did mention denies it every happened...35 years ago.

        My point is obvious. The woman is always refered to by some variant of the term “That woman”. I’m sure you address him as “Judge Kavanaugh”.

        No. It's an unsubstantiated, 35-year-old allegation (from high school, for the love) that never surfaced until, magically, Dems had nothing to stop the #KavanaughConfirmation. Nothing like exploiting sexual assault. #MeToo #Epic #Failpic.twitter.com/33FimnKqiv

        Feinstein held on to these allegations since July...she can no longer take a moral high ground on this issue.

        That Orrin Hatch was involved in the Thomas-Hill hearings, and is *still* in the Senate making a hash of things this many years later is an indictment of the ancient, male-dominated GOP stuck in power in D.C. Retire, already!!
