    I think your post is a good argument for the FBI investigation, which would clear things up considerably. That way, we don't have to choose which side to believe, but we'd have evidence to help us decide.

    The problem is that the Senate committee is highly politicized, and there are forces at work on both sides to turn events in their way. An FBI investigation would be politically neutral, and follow the evidence wherever it led. That would be more accurate in its conclusions and more in keeping with the law.

    How can you vindicate someone with such a ridiculously vague accusation?

    I would like to announce to the group that I personally witnessed XplreR sexually assault a woman sometime in the early 2010's. Prove me wrong.

    What is there to investigate by the FBI? A flimsy accusation from 36 years ago. Also, why would this fall under their purview of the FBI? And just because he is being appointed to SCOTUS does not count. He's already in a lifetime position currently, so don't go that route either.

    Which one is it Christine ?



    [​IMG]

    Is it the Supreme Court nominee that the Democrats want to block anyway possible or
    is it the guy who's house you where drunk at that you described in the letter to
    Diane Feinstein that she will not release to the Senate Judiciary Committee in unredacted
    form......


    You might want to think long and hard before answering this, because you are already in
    a legal mess of your own creation....and this potential perjury trap you're entering is
    not going to end up well either way. It's a FELONY !

    You vindicate the honest ones thru having an FBI investigation determine the facts. I'm not suggesting we simply accept Dr Ford's word & discount Kavanaugh's. I'm supporting a politically neutral FBI investigation to get at the truth. Why would anyone oppose that?

    The FBI investigation would be the shortest, simplest and most trustworthy approach to the truth. How can we resolve this with any claim to justice if people like you keep rejecting all the non-partisan approaches to a solution?

    I'd be willing to bet you'd feel differently if it had been you facing that situation.

    Because as I have explained to so many different people now... that's not how our federal law enforcement system works.

    Why is this so hard to understand?

    Again, that is not how the FBI works. Are you okay? It's been explained over and over now.

    If that's true, why was it the very way it was handled by many of the same Senators for the Thomas/Hill dispute? From what I've heard, it actually IS the way things work--or are supposed to work.

    Someone in a position of power has to request an investigation by the FBI. In past situations like this that's exactly how it's been done. Why not now?

    They have already investigated it.......
    Three individuals have given testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee....
    The FBI has already looked into the "allegations " !
    She's toast if she shows up.....

    And Feinstein KNOWS it !

    They should let Cory Booker " Sparticus " the self admitted groper and
    Kamala Harris " Willie Browns " concubine go first and second....

    Because in the Thomas/Hill incident those allegations took place at their place of work... a federal building... federal property. Also, it was within the statute of limitations.

    This Ford allegation did not. It allegedly took place at some house... in a neighborhood... not federal property. Those allegations would fall to the state of Maryland to investigate... in which the statute of limitations has lapsed. Stop equating the two events. Please. Thanks.

    Since when did sexual harrassment become a federal crime?

    Do you?

    Each FISA application — the original one in October 2016, and the three renewals at 90-day intervals — is labeled “VERIFIED APPLICATION” (bold caps in original). And each one makes this breathtaking representation:

    The FBI has reviewed this verified application for accuracy in accordance with its April 5, 2001 procedures, which include sending a copy of the draft to the appropriate field office(s).

    In reality, the applications were never verified for accuracy.

    Whether the event occurred on federal property or not is irrelevant. It becomes important enough for the FBI to pursue simply because Kavanaugh is in process to become a Supreme Court justice. Any criminal activity, anytime, anywhere for which he is responsible, is a concern for the FBI, or should be. I'm not saying Kavanaugh is guilty. I'm simply saying we need to know for absolute certainty whether this event took place before we elevate Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.

    Actually the Democrats have played it beautifully. Considering that Kavenaugh was certain of getting the appointment the Democrats have managed to permanently damage his reputation while making the Republicans look insensitive to womans rights and thus potentially gaining more votes for Democratic candidates in the midterm elections. Take the whole thing for what it probably is which is a cynical political ploy and realize that the Democrats have come out quite well and the Republicans have lost more political capital in what should have been a slam dunk.

    Okay, believe what you wish, but that's still not how this works. He's already gone through six background checks at the federal level. What new thing would they find? That Ford has made and an allegation against Kavanaugh. That's it. It's a waste of time and taxpayer dollars. I told you not to go the SCOTUS route earlier and you did anyway.
