i think what they re trying to do is setup political theater, and she s very smart to be careful how she goes about this. and i want to read you something that dean heller, republican senator from nevada, said today on a conference call that s been reported. a conference call. and this is certainly an inside look how the men certainly on the republican senate see this. he said we ve got a little hiccup here with the kavanaugh nomination, we ll get through this and we ll get off to the races. so for him it s a little hiccup. no, exactly. she would be coming before a committee that included senator lindsey graham, who has called this a drive-by shooting. we certainly have heard from senator hatch who thinks somehow she s just mixed up. so it s not that she s coming before a group of people who are impartial who actually want to get to the truth. if they wanted to get to the
hatch said there was true. it was true then. it s true now, but orin hatch won t say it now. now, when these two old men of the senate, orin hatch and chuck grassly, lie to us now they lie as if they don t know that the video still exists. they lie as if they don t know there s a congressional record of every word they ve ever spoken on the committee floor. they believed an investigation that only lasted a few days was the appropriate thing to do in response to anita hill s accusations. and now they re saying there s no reason to do that before hearing dr. ford s testimony. this means it s being issued with malice. chuck grassly won t even give her what he thought was appropriate for anita hill. before he then abused anita hill. he personally did in that
hill told her at work. and here is what orin hatch said about the fbi investigation of anita hill s accusations. chairman biden and the ranking member thurman, when they heard about this the first time they immediately ordered this fbi investigation, which was a very right thing to do. it s the appropriate thing to do. they did what every other chairman and ranking member have done in the past. and the investigation was done and it was a good investigation. they immediately ordered this fbi investigation, which was a very right thing to do. that is kind of unique ly orin hatch verbiage. it s the appropriate thing to do. they did that. they did what every other chairman and ranking member have done in the past and what orin
procedure, in fact. in fact, democrats either. they do not understand senate judiciary committee procedure, really. and do not understand senate judiciary committee history. and only one of them knows chuck grassly s personal history with this subject. and that is the 87-year-old republican orin hatch who sits beside chuck grassly in the senate judiciary committee now. they are the two republicans on committee who have been here tomorrow. they are the two republicans who personally bullied professor anita hill when she came before that same committee to testify against clarence thomas to the supreme court because she said he had committed repeated acts of sexual harassment against her in the workplace and elsewhere. they are the only two republicans still sitting on that committee 27 years later. 27 years after disgracing themselves when anita hill testified to the committee. they re still there. anita hill s accusations against
dr. ford says brett kavanaugh sexually assaulted her, tried to rape her, she believes. brett kavanaugh says nothing like that ever happened. one of them, one of those two people wants the fbi to investigate and the other one doesn t. why isn t brett kavanaugh demanding an fbi investigation? why? why not? why doesn t brett kavanaugh want to submit to the best professional investigators we have, and why does dr. ford want to submit to an investigation by the fbi? why does she want to do that? and why do the republicans on the senate want to save brett kavanaugh from ever facing an fbi question about this? every reason that they give is a lie every single reason. you just saw orin hatch say it s the appropriate thing to do. you saw chuck grassly say that that is exactly what was done when the judiciary committee learned about anita hill s accusations against clarence thomas.
