So we haven't heard about this for 2 months cause they apparently thought it happened so long ago and didn't send it to the FBI until being pushed further on it cause the Dems were playing politics. 

 

You two should PM to get your story straight and decide how best to complain about this. 

Is the New Yorker wrong?  Did Feinstein send this to the FBI when she got it  in July and both her and the FBI are lying now claiming she only sent it to them on Wed this week?  

 

Or is it just a question of her motives behind her actions?

So some of you are ****ing that the Democrats didn't come out and make accusations and instead gave it to the authorities to investigate? Interesting. 

my issue is why wasnt it sent sooner to the FBI?

And those second hand accounts sure sound like attempted rape to me.

Sure, and it sure sounds like the Duke lacrosse team raped a girl at an off campus party...

If her motive is trying to sink Kavanaugh, we would have found out about this a lot sooner.

That's the most legit issue with what happened. I don't understand the complaints from the right. Extremely defensive

Not necessarily.  If she didn’t believe the allegation, it would make sense to not do anything about it at the time hoping something else would derail him.  Seeing that nothing else has, this is the “hail Mary”.

DiFi is hella dumb then. None of this makes her look good. Sitting on it for months is not good politically. Her Hail Mary is for her to take a lot of **** from voters?

[Kilmer17]

That’s the thing.  There is no really good explanation for the way she handled it.

There should be an investigation. I'm sure we can figure a way to address issues like this.

[DogofWar1]

I think the concern from the right, understandably, is timing.  Maybe she held it for good reasons.  Maybe it's coincidence that this all came to a head right at this moment.  Maybe Dianne didn't intend for this to blow up like this.  But it is.  And it looks very politically timed.

 

That being said, the entire American right is owed a massive sucker punch to the teeth for what they pulled on Garland, so frankly I don't feel too bad.  If Brett truly sinks for this, we'll call it even.

Yeah, the idea that the right has any right to decry "dirty politics" is kind of hysterical.

 

Besides, with Flynn, Manafort, Cohen, Trump Jr. Gates, etc.  I think the Republicans have kind of lost the benefit of the doubt on any moral issue whatsoever. They are the party of crooks, traitors, and the wretched.

Yes, it wasn't said he raped her. And yes, the 65 women are from another school but...

She didn't see any good from releasing it ,but someone else forced her hand.

what, ya'll don't like your own rules?  thanks Joe

Much better not to toy with Garland and be upfront.

 

even will be when the Dems are no more.

 

[Hersh]

The letter from the 65 women is disturbing. Any reason why people sexually assaulted don’t come forward all the time. No saying Kav is guilty but it’s ****ty to see a letter like this as a response.

Wow, TWA making things up. 

 

 

Some things never change.

[twa]

why is it ****ty?

[bearrock]

Agan, if the woman doesn't want to come forward and address this, how is the Senate or the FBI supposed to consider this at all?  It's not like there's any other evidence to go on.

Sure, but it’s also ****ty proving a negative. 

 

Do we we have any actual evidence he did this? We don’t even have an accuser?

 

Interesting you don’t find that ****ty.

The Democrat gave it to the FBI to look into. I find that to be what should've happened right away. 

[gbear]

Gee, do people wonder why a woman wouldnt come forward? Anyone remember a lady named Anita Hill? How did that questioning go? Think that is unusual?

 

As for FBI, what crime bas been comitted whose statute of limitations has not passed?  What should they investigate?

 

The question is whether the standard for being sworn into a life time term on the Supreme Court should require more than just "not convicted."

It's a fair question that she should answer.

I can totally understand why she wouldn't come forward.  And I don't think an allegation has to be proven to a level of criminal conviction for it to be considered by the Senate.  But without any other corroborating evidence to go on, I don't see how the Senate can consider it.  There's gotta be something more than an anonymous allegation.
