BK is the poorest (possible) Supreme Court Judge ever nominated. Kavanaugh is at the bottom of the rankings with an estimated $580,000 net worth. Jul 10, 2018 https://www.marketwatch.com/story/brett-kavanaugh-may-become-the-poorest-supreme-court-justice-2018-07-10 |

There is a Statute of Limitations I believe so he can't be " Prosecuted " by the Law. Wrong. He could spend the rest of his life in jail, if this evil of lefties succeeds, |

Disappointed to have missed all the excitement of the hearings, I've been stuck in hospital all day. :(
Having read both this thread, plus another one on an American forum I frequent, it is quite astonishing how vastly different the opinions are between the two. Here, the general opinion seems to be pro Dr Ford's performance but very critical of Judge Kavanaugh's. Stateside, the exact opposite view appears to hold sway, they ripped her to shreds and reported that he came across as far more honest and sincere. I haven't got a clue whether or not Judge Kavanaugh will now be confirmed to the Supreme Court. From a Republican point of view (with an eye on mid term elections) it might be preferable if he withdrew. Whatever happens next week, however, I believe that the disgraceful manner in which Democrat leaders have handled themselves will be remembered for a very long time indeed. Their conduct has been disgraceful. |

' Disappointed to have missed all the excitement of the hearings, I've been stuck in hospital all day'. ------------ Most who watched this American Reality TV show - would have readily swapped places with you ............ - as THEY will be in need of hospitalisation - after suffering hours of this convoluted Carp. |

Nothing too serious U hope, PM?
Some prime quality SEEEEEETHING going on today, great fun CHORTLING at the lefties, as they try to pretend they believe him guilty! We all know this is no more than a leftie power play, nothing more than PURE EVIL; do humanity a favour, lefties, rejoin Lucifer pronto. |

Good morning, Tim. :)
Just a day of tests for me, several hours of generally being poked and prodded about. I consider the democrat leaders' behaviour in their treatment of Judge Kavanaugh to be truly sickening. I have no doubt whatsoever that they could not care less about justice or the concept of innocence until proven guilt, their motives were purely selfish in my view. Whatever happens next the lives of Judge Kavanaugh and Dr Ford (and worse, that of their families) will be blighted by these events. All of it deliberately engineered by democrats just to delay the SCOTUS nomination until after the mid terms. Best wishes. |

By:
The American message boards were reporting that two men had come forward and confessed to the assault for which Dr Ford accuses Kavanaugh. Did that revelation not make the news over here?

By:
On BBC? C4? Sky? Of course not, lefties NEVER allow truth

By:
I have as much confidence in the veracity of their confessions as the accusation itself to be honest, but such a development is surely newsworthy. Incredible if it wasn't mentioned, Tim. :(

what i have been reading is the GOP base have been galvanised for the mid terms with the treatment of the judge.both sides getting further and further apart. my prediction is creepy porn lawyer all over media today screaming for investigation for his client.all he has to do is take his client to the relevant authorities and submit a complaint against the judge |

Well all that was pretty low, all the dragging up of purile juvenile end of term yearbook stuff about farting and puking as a youth.
They will be mentioning he possibly cant pi55 straight and his s hit stinks next. This is everything thats wrong with politics, and is a very long way from the philisophical origins of the 'polis'. For the woman to say she is doing a civic duty is a joke. Implying shes saving the people as she 'thinks' he 'might' have 'possibly' raped her 36 years ago....but didnt, doesnt exactly paint a picture of a sexual deviant does it? |
|
By:
Look where we have ended up.
Not only has the requirement of evidence been extinquished, now we are in the realms of 'potential' guilt even when an act didnt occur. The very use of the terms 'rape' or 'kill' coupled with 'might' to assasinate a character. That has to be the very bottom. Its now seemingly enough to evoke controversy by a degenerate act being played out in the mind, from 36 years previous. Wow. 'Me Too' gunna have a field day now. |

It's been reported a bit but as it's obv bollocks most have ignored it. As a trump supporter Kavs performance was fantastic as a potential S.C. judge it was appalling, partisan, didn't know legal quotes, conspiracy heavy, stumbled on questions, long silences that wouldn't be permitted by any judge and it was clear this was no Dem set up as they had coordinated feck all apart from maybe when Ford was speaking. As I said earlier the best result is for him to be voted in placating the base for the midterms and then for more evidence to emerge over the next few weeks - really he was a moderate drinker most of the time, wasn't belligerent or angry when drunk and never passed out or had any memory blanks? There's already enough in the public to call that as b/s. Days gone by lying about that would be enough to dq him but this is Trumps America we are talking about and standards have never been lower. Trump has then served his purpose for the far right establishment that run America, tax cuts to make them all much much richer personally, out of date large scale corporations (old money) given vast amounts of capital and the S.C 'secured' for 30 years (so they think). If kav is confirmed (and the midterms go worse than expected) i can see the clothes falling off the Emperor very quickly. |

"clear there was no dem set up"
You must be living in your own little bubble of delusion, mate. What is clear is that there is no level to which the dems won't stoop. Yesterday's antics were vomit inducing from the dems - and from Ford for that matter - she came across as totally insincere. I didn't believe a word she said. |
|
By:
Several years from now most of those democrat senators will probably be accused themselves. Ford will claim she was lead into a room and five old men kissed her arse for three hours.
|
|
By:
There was little or no eye-contact delivery from Mr Kavanaugh each time at the questioner. I think Mr Kavanaugh was smug; he even used his daughter's alleged sympathetic comment for the accuser Ms/Dr Ford but chose to refer to her as "woman" instead of Ms/Dr Ford.
I hope the other two accusers have the fortitude and tenacity to seek legal justice in the near future. I believe this unsavoury episode will run for a while to come yet. |
|
By:
Confirmed or not, Kavanaugh is, and forever will be, tainted. The lying under oath, evasiveness, dodging answering about an FBI investigation to clear his name and irrational outbursts in the hearing were compounded by his blatant message that far from being impartial, as a supreme court judge should be he is nothing more than a Trump/Republican puppet. This is not going to go away as easily as the Republican party seem to assume. In the coming days facts will emerge that paint a totally different picture of this nominee and the Political disruption caused will have Putin laughing all the way to the Kremlin.

lets be fair no one can prove it one way or another
but to begin with she didn't no within 8 years when it happened doesn't no how she got to the house doesn't no how she got home her best mate who was supposedly there with her cant remember the party,been there etc, anyone presumed guilty under these facts would be devastated, in this country the cps would put a cup of coffee on it within seconds |
|
By:
Being fair, the reason no one can prove it one way or another is that the matter has not been properly investigated.
|
|
By:
I think the questions you raised could not be addressed yesterday but no doubt would be in an FBI investigation; Dr Ford asked for one but Mr Kavanaugh was not forthcoming as he deemed it to be something without a definitive conclusion.
|
|
By:
I,m sure those who set this circus up would have got the witness,s,people to answer 3 of those question if they were out there, they seem to have statements covering everything else, so if she cant answer them how does getting the fbi involved help her
|
|
By:
Involving the FBI would be purely to investigate if Kavanaugh is a proper person to be a Supreme Court Judge. As to how it could help her, that's obvious. She's the one calling for the investigation, he's the one avoiding the FBI at all costs.

It's a self-inflicted wound. I can't imagine many women voters stay on the Republican bus for the mid-terms after this.
|
|
By:
Even the American Bar Association has called for a delay of the vote to allow the FBI to investigate the claims by Dr Ford and other women. Why is Mr Kavanaugh not agreeing to this? I'd have thought this could only assist in determining a conclusion, definitive or not.
