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.
Much more @
If this accusation takes Kavanaugh down, no one will be safe from baseless smears again
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.
oh but her potential character assasination is cool with you.
No it's not "cool with" me. The allegation is not beyond the realm of reality, nor is the nominees denial.
The issue is not settled, the allegation must be taken seriously. As the lady said, each partisan side will argue differently, but there is no evidence yet in which I'm aware, presented, to tilt the issue to one side or the other.
As a former manager of Domestic Violence coalitions I've seen my share of :He said, She said: situations. Somewhere there will be evidence for the trier of facts - in this case the Senate - to make a judgment.
If the event occurred as stated by the alleged victim, what he did at 17 is not as relevant to the nomination as If he lied about it, if so, he should be denied the nomination.
