yeah, no kidding, your buddies in the gop won t let it happen, no other witnesses, no record made by the fbi. this was the minimum standard, this is by definition a rush to judgment. and kavanaugh for all his wordy answers never said he would be okay with any expansion of efforts. so now to professor ford, a low point for her came in full view when she was asked about how she came to retain her lawyers. take a listen. did anyone besides friends and family refer you to any attorneys? i think that the staff of dianne feinstein s office suggested the possibility of some attorneys. why does this matter? because the republicans are going to cast her as a political pawn. they delayed the process, they hatched it when they wanted to for maximum effect. they lawyered her up, they got her ready, they paid for her polygraph. judge kavanaugh didn t say today he would even take a polygraph, but that s going to be weaponized.

he came to regret that, he came to regret bill clinton being embroiled in legal wrangling and thought that that did force the president to take his eye off the ball particularly with say osama bin laden. well, i think it s unfortunate when someone like judge kavanaugh, shortly after barack obama had been elected writes an article saying maybe we should think long and hard about whether or not as a policy matter congress should be allowing a president to be distracted from his job. maybe that s a good policy thing. maybe that s a bad policy thing, but i think it shows first of all that even though there was a democratic president, judge kavanaugh didn t say, oh, well, we should go after a democratic president. the party of the president didn t matter to him just like as a judge the party won t matter to him. secondly, we should remember that every time judge kavanaugh has issued an opinion on executive power, not a single time has the supreme court reversed him on that. and multiple t
