If this accusation takes Kavanaugh down, no one will be safe from baseless smears again

[longknife]

The Left’s use of baseless lies against political foes is nothing new. They’ve been doing it for decades. The problem is the current collusion between the Left and the Leftist Media.

It’s imperative now that Brett Kavanaugh be confirmed, and not only because of the stakes for the Supreme Court.

Yes, we’re going to find ourselves in quite a pickle if President Trump has to choose another nominee so close to the mid-term elections, and we’re looking at the possibility of a Democrat Senate next year that won’t confirm anyone he nominates – unless it’s someone chosen from a pre-approved list Charles Schumer helpfully provides.

You can be sure there will be no crossover between that list and the one from the Federalist Society.

But there’s a more important reason than that. If the last-minute attacks on Kavanaugh are rewarded with the scuttling of his nomination, there will be no restraint left on anyone to lodge any smear – no matter how ancient, scurrilous or unsubstantiated it may be – against anyone, ever again.

Regardless of what actually happened, this is just another example of our downward trajectory.

It sure as hell won't stop here, especially if the nomination is killed.

This is what it looks like when the lunatics run the asylum, gang. It's ugly and it's only getting uglier.

Kavanaugh is not the 'pivotal moment', the 'benchmark event', for lack of a better term that escapes me this morning.

Herman Cain is not, either, but he is probably the most (recent) public figure - and good man - to be bullied and beaten down by the Democrats' despicable tactic of 'the politics of personal destruction'.

In 2014 the Russians reportedly perpetrated numerous crimes associated with the KGB Bank's effort to acquire Uranium One. What Democrats do - what Feinstein just did - is not much different than the bullying, blackmail, and extortion those Russian thugs engaged in. The Russians bullied people to get what they want - so did Feinstein.

The Democrats are doing more than just 'bullying', though. For political party gain they are demonstrating they are willing to destroy a very good man's reputation, his life's work, his marriage, his family....

That is beyond despicable.

We don't know they're baseless. The people who automatically think they are lies are the people who want Kavanaugh confirmed for political reasons. The people who automatically think she is telling the truth are the people who do not want him confirmed. But I have heard some thoughtful people on both sides raise good questions about this; I agree with our senator that an investigation into this is in order. Listening to her story and then listening to him say it didn't happen is NOT going to clear this up for anyone.

her story has changed. she's deleted her social media history. she tried to delete her college feedback but forgot the archive server.

if trump or the right did any of this and then tried to say they're telling the truth about something outlandish, would you still give them enough credibility to launch an investigation?

Truth be told, he's a Democrat's friend, if they paid enough attention.

Regardless of whether or not Kavanaugh is "taken down" by this accusation, in the insane, politically correct, hyper-partisan world we currently find ourselves in NOBODY is safe from baseless accusations.

Baseless accusations and being offended have become full time professions for many Americans.

Her “college feedback” was proven a lie and the site that posted it issued an apology. Her story has NOT changed. And if I were about to face total annihilation from some of the most powerful people in America because I was a woman daring to come forward about being assaulted, I’d scrub my social media too.

You're disgusting. character assassination is bad enough, but to put partisanship before country is deplorable.

In context, McConnell's misfeasance in not bringing forward President Obama's nominee based on the excuse it was too close to a national election, is doubled down by you and the GOP who argue times are different and Trump's nominee must be vetted and approved before the next national election.
