I find it fascinating that no one is writing about or talking about the ludicrous nature of the Republican Party.
Republicans line up an operative for the Supreme Court straight out of Republican privilege and affiliation that is a violent sexual offender. No one in the party knew about Kavanaugh’s preferred lifestyle of drunken bashes and sexual exploited?
In addition to that, Republicans never become unnerved when one of their own has issues with infidelity. I believe they don't care about women at all.
The reason given for Trump instituting an FBI investigation of the allegations against his nominee was because some of the Republicans were on the fence about their votes. That is dearly few Republicans, and I am guessing they are women, that actually find even allegations more than should be tolerated yet alone the drinking.

The White House appears (click here) to be playing all kinds of crafty rhetorical games to obscure the answer to a simple question: Has it deliberately placed limits on the scope of the FBI’s renewed background check into allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh, or not?
As of this morning, there are conflicting reports about who will now be interviewed by the FBI. The New York Times reports that the White House directed the FBI to interview only four people: Mark Judge, who is alleged by Christine Blasey Ford to have acted as Kavanaugh’s accomplice in the sexual assault; P.J. Smyth and Leland Keyser, who Ford claims were also in the house; and Deborah Ramirez, who has accused Kavanaugh of exposing himself to her at Yale.
Meanwhile, The Post reports that Kavanaugh will also be interviewed, but that a third accuser — Julie Swetnick — will not be. It’s also not clear whether Ford herself will be contacted — she has not yet been, according to her lawyer.
You’ll be startled to hear that instead of providing clarity, White House officials have sown further confusion. Press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told Fox News that the White House is “not micromanaging this process.” Similarly, counselor Kellyanne Conway told CNN that, while the investigation will be “limited in scope,” the White House is not setting those limits, which will be “up to the FBI” to set. Conway pointed to President Trump’s weekend tweet saying the FBI should “interview whoever they deem appropriate,” and insisted (somehow without dissolving into giggles at her own disingenuousness) that Trump respects the FBI’s “independence.”...
Typical Republicans that don't know where to point their guns. If Kavanaugh makes it to a vote and has a real chance at sitting on the court, I look forward to the day when he is charged with sexual assault due to drunkenness because there is nothing to inhibit his behavior with a life long appointment and whatever inhibitions he may have will be turned loose. I firmly believe that.
He is already beginning with perjury before a US Senate Committee.

A Yale classmate of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh (click here) accused him on Sunday of being untruthful in his testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee and making a "blatant mischaracterization" of his drinking while in college.
"I can unequivocally say that in denying the possibility that he ever blacked out from drinking, and in downplaying the degree and frequency of his drinking, Brett has not told the truth," Chad Ludington said in a statement to CNN.
Ludington said in the statement he often drank with Kavanaugh when they were classmates, and said Kavanaugh had played down "the degree and frequency" of his drinking in his testimony. Ludington said he often saw Kavanaugh "staggering from alcohol consumption," and said he often became "belligerent and aggressive" while drinking.
In his testimony to the judiciary committee Thursday, Kavanaugh denied ever blacking out from drinking....
This is almost hysterical in the choice Trump made. He chose Kavanaugh from a list of the Federalist Society and more than likely due to Kavanaugh's fluidity in decision making when it comes to impeachment and because he is fifty something. That is age discrimination by the way. But, think about it. How close at the age of fifty something is Kavanaugh's liver to collapse? I suppose he'll have to do a Cheney and get a liver transplant, but, here is an age discriminated choice with a liver that is about to fall apart. Amazing.
