    beyond a reasonable doubt is that the left has no regard whatever for the truth, for justice, or for fair play let alone due process. The only thing anyone needs to know about these accusations and yes they are accusations not charges is that the available witnesses do not corroborate either woman's story. That being the case, not only is there no reason to hear their testimony there is every reason to dismiss them out of hand. There isn't a DA in the country would even file charges in these cases even if what they said is true, and the preponderance of evidence says it is not, it is unclear based upon the women's own stories that any law was broken.

    All in all the left's approach reminds one far more of Torquemada's inquisition or the Salem witch trials than anything else.

    I think the American people can easily see this for what it is, another lame attempt to remove republicans from office. The problem dems have is they believe the lying liberal media's propaganda.

    Gentlemen I hope you are correct but history keeps proving that no one ever went broke by under estimating the intelligence of the average American. Gullibility, stupidity, avarice, ignorance and insanity are the only reason I can come up with to explain why so many people still think socialism is a good idea.

    All the moral outrage on the right, but trump supporters quickly forgot this stunt:

    https://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/2...-bill-clinton-accusers-rattle-hillary-n663481

    Why would the Dems play nice when Trump and cohorts have upped the game with respect to nastiness in politics?

    And, no, I am not defending Bill Clinton. I am just saying that both sides use victims for dirty politics, no matter what the truth is.

    I find it a bit amusing that Republicans thought there would be no blow-back from their refusing to even give Obama's Supreme Court nominee a hearing.

    The hypocrisy you and the GOP are willing to display here is really something special.

    I can't believe you have the audacity to complain about due process. Completely setting aside the credibility of the accusers, you still have four women and plenty of circumstantial evidence to look at from Georgetown Prep and Yale, the convenient and instant 65 women who approve of BK's behavior (summarily gathered within hours of the accusation, though the number diminishes daily). Furthermore you have Mitch and Trump precluding that they will ram his nomination along regardless of ANY due process whatever it exposes. Set that within the context of Merrick F*****G Garland, the fact that Gorsuch was approved with some Democrat crossover, and Trump's UTTER disregard for due process with Mueller and the GOP's rubber stamp approval of literally every single indiscretion of Trump's page 6 life. Honestly. You guys have surrendered your ethics, your morals, and your credibility.

    You need a smaller echo chamber.

    Hillary should have been indicted.
    Ellison should be indicted.

    Who am I missing?

    Ohyeah... Cosby should go to prison.

    No damn comparison. The only thing Ramirez and Blassey-Ford are victims of is their own imagination and Feinstein's ham handed attempt to use them to delay the inevitable. Blassey-Ford wall not be there Thursday neither she nor her lawyers want any part of having to answer question from an experience prosecutor who specializes in assault cases. Because he or she will see through their phony baloney in about two minutes. This was never about whether or not Kavanaugh was guilty it is about trying to delay the process until after the mid terms still more than a month away.

    Yep, and the GOP didn't even give Obama's nominee a hearing. You reap what you sow.

    Look, I am as disgusted by dirty politics as anyone. But to pretend that it is only the Dems engaging in dirty tactics is being blind to reality.

    There is a difference between blow back and drumming up a bunch of false charges in an attempt to ruin a man's life and career. And Please drop the Holier than thou crap Democrat have been doing this and worse for since Reconstruction. You have no moral high ground. Your side started this **** storm decades ago. It is about damn time Republicans started to fight back.

    My side? Hell, I think both parties are screwed up and wouldn't be a member of either - but if you look at the history of Supreme Court nominations, it's been a political football since day one. And I AM holier than both the Republicans and the Democrats - I didn't vote for Hillary or Trump. I didn't sell my soul for 20 silver pieces.

    Again no comparison some one once told me elections have consequences, had you won the proceeding election Merrrick garland would be on the supreme you lost so he is not. You want to pick who sits on the supreme court win a damn election don't subvert the establish process.

    First off you have not had a conservative nominee. Kavanaugh has ruled in support of corporations over the working man 90% of the time.

    In order for me to set aside their credibility they would first have to acquire some. There are witness to these events. The witnesses say the things the women described never happened so much for those women's credibility.

    As for due process had there been any there would be no Mueller probe.

    You are correct in that statement. The stark difference here is, the Republicans did not try to smear the life's work of Garland. They just left him waiting in the wings in the event Hillary Clinton was elected.

    Your complete lack of understanding of due process is telling.

    Obamas father was a muslim

    As you may know in islam the children of muslims are muslim

    And obama spent his early years in indonesia attending a muslim school

    He referred to “my muslim faith” in an interview and has appeared in muslim garb

    So there is actual evidence to tie obama to islam

    Go back and look at some of the Hannity shows in 2016 - he was ramping up a pretty comprehensive smear campaign against Garland.
