Rob's House Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 31 minutes ago, Deranged Rhino said: The whole lot of conspirators. The Senate is not in play anymore for the dems. The GOP will hold the Senate and now, likely, the House. Who leaked the letter? It was staffers on the committee who leaked it. Whether they came from DF's staff or Harris's staff, or both is really irrelevant. It was a political move by those on the left to expose Dr. Ford to the public (against her will) and throw her to the wolves of public opinion - not because they cared about Dr. Ford or the issue (or even believed it), but because they knew in the MeToo era the accusation alone would grind things to a halt and allow them to pressure Trump to drop Kavanaugh. They badly misjudged the situation. ***************** From a woman pushing sharia law. I don't necessarily believe that Ford wanted this kept quiet. Maybe she did, but I'm not taking them at their word. They've proven they'll say or do anything to achieve their ends. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't a LESS controversial judge to be had. Any "controversy" you may feel is attached was ginned up by the Democrats. Period. Honestly, it amazes me to see people suggest things like that. Decades of experience. Impeccable resume. Scores of people from across the political landscape speak of his demeanor and nature on the court. Not a controversy to discuss until, almost magically, a "controversy" without time, date or place rocks arises. After an unprecedented delay and additional hearings and FBI investigation....demanded by the accuser, her attornies and the opposition party and agreed to by the White House....no credibility to the accusations. Old Alf walks away with the thought that the President was the problem. Might as well just say "Trump should have nominated a liberal that everyone approved of.".

They either outed her against her wishes in order to turn a confirmation hearing into a shitshow or diabolically waited to spring this at the last minute in order to turn things into a shitshow and delay the confirmation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSHMEAB Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 10 hours ago, Kevbeau said: Don’t get it do you? The fact that bill gates vote counts the same as the dude living under the overpass is both beautiful and idiotic at the same time. The EC is the balance. People in disparate places will have different interests. We have a long history of urban lead city states that have failed for the exact reasons you put forth. But that's not true. Bill Gates lives in a relatively populous state while the dude living under the overpass in Wyoming does not. So the dude living under the overpass in Cheyenne has MORE of a say than Bill Gates based on the electoral college. Not only that, the dude living under the overpass in Cheyenne is represented by the same number of senators as the overpass dwelling transient in Los Angeles despite the fact that 20 million people live in CA compared to 580k in Wyoming. The whole system has allowed Bridgy Bill in Cheyenne to choose our leaders; thus Trump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would explain why the recent accusations could morph into whatever she needed later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the election, there would be national polls saying Trump has pulled even, Trump has gone slightly ahead, and whatnot................And every liberal I know said - who cares, it's all about the Electoral College. Then they want to declare victory and/or change the EC, after they lost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magox Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I have been catching up and reading articles from the mainstream and it's more feverish than ever. They have lost all pretense of impartiality, they dont even pretend anymore. And that comment from Sarsour is so out of bounds its amazing that this socially acceptable. I dont think I'm exaggerating here, of this trend continues at this pace, I shudder to think where we will be in a decade. This is already nightmarishly bad. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the only liberal who hasn't lost his damn mind in this me too/believe every woman era. If we don't have a presumption of innocence, we may as well just throw everything away. I expect rank hypocrisy from the right, but the left is really giving them a run for their money. They'll probably silence Maher soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think American citizens would allow this country to be taken over by Nazi's than you're confused because of your lack of understanding fascism. This country is likely to be overrun by anti fascist fascists than anything else right now. I emplore us to use Maxine Waters tactics and hunt them down and harass them.
