    Garland would disagree
    They didn't hold a vote, or a hearing.

    They didn't deliberate at all.

    Kind of hard to claim the high ground for red team on that one.

    polygraph exams are hot garbage. that's why they're not admissible in court.
    This is not going to be used in court

    If it’s hot garbage why did her attorney have her take one ?

    This is what she should have done from the start. Someone gave her terrible advice when she said the only way she'd testify is if there is an FBI investigation. Now she's having to backtrack.

    Her testifying will have more immediate impact on the senators who are on the fence. If she makes a compelling argument this guy is finished. Instead she gave the republicans a reason to say welp, lets vote.
    and vote they may.

    apparently CBF can't testify on Monday, but can later in the week.

    Ford is in two populations

    the huge majority of women who are sexually harassed, brutalized, or raped and who don't report it.

    the tiny minority of women who are raped and do report it

    Ford is an educated, informed woman knowing full well that her accusations would derange her life, maybe for years, even end her life (she is in hiding due to death threats), but she came forward anyway.

    Bigger balls than any chicken less Repug in Congress.

    For the tiny minority who do report, 400K rape kits not processed in USA, and in good 'ol rapist boy state:

    After crowdfunding law, Texans raise nearly $250,000 toward testing rape kits

    I don't have a theory on that.

    Because the polygraph has folklorical validity? People believe in it for some reason?

    She has an opportunity to her story. What science am I denying, btw?
    Doesn't answer my question Darrin.

    Did the big bad woman make it up so she can have the pleasure of fleeing her home from death threats? Is that your conspiracy theory?

    A few arrests at the hill - this might start getting the same attention as the health care issue.

    WH might not opine, but I will: Because she wants people to believe her.

    Fairly simple. WH was right, that polygraphs are not at all reliable though.

    Can't blame the woman for wanting to prove herself.

    Reffering to old gots like Orin Hatch and some other out of touch old man within the senate.

    Old boy done said that she was "mistaken" even though he knows nothing about her or her experiences in life.

    You're either misinformed or lying.

    The FBI investigated Antia Hill's claims and it only took three days.
    The FBI investigated the Anita Hill case because it had jurisdiction under federal law. It does not have jurisdiction in this case. That is the truth and not a lie or being misinformed. But again, this whole line of arguing by Democrats is only believable to those who want to believe. What is the FBI going to find in a case where the accuser can't name the place or the time or how she got there or where she went after and that she told no one and the only person who has ever said that she named him before the letter to Feinstein was her husband? Kavanaugh and the two others named have said they have no recollection of the events. Ford has said everything that she remembers. If not, it would be leaking. To be honest, the only one that needs investigating is Ford because if she can't get more details, she has a paper thin allegation and they can't do anything with it.

    not lying, just knowing how stupidity, ignorance rules in the court of public opinion, which is EXACTLY what Trash, Nunes, Repugs are doing.

    Knowing that Trash and his mafiya are going down, they are all denigrating the FBI/CIA/DoJ as corrupt and politicized to try to turn the people against Mueller. It ain't working, polls show trust is higher in Mueller than in Trash.

    Excuse here for minute
    There are prominent Republicans who want to hear what she has to say .
    Why? Look at the timing of this thing it looks horrible.

    So why are Republicans and the president even entertaining having her testify ?

    Looks like she's open to testify but not Monday. The problem and what is hitting her credibility is that everything she is doing is in lock step with the Democrats. If she has given her whole story, then while it's sounds believable, it also sounds crafted to be an allegation that can't really be proven, so when she looks like she's working in concert with Democrats, it looks like her story is made up. If she has a full story, then tell the story. It shouldn't take months to prepare. She took a lie detector test over a month ago after hiring an attorney with experience in these types of allegations. To say she can't testify next week because she needs more time just looks like it's lock step with Democrats.

    Also, Ed Whelan is saying that they have evidence that is exculpatory and will be released next week. I don't know what it is or even what it could be, but the claim is out there.

    They didn't. They included the letter in the background check.

    Try to keep up, Boo.

    or do you just mean, they've since included it in the file, having already completed the background check.

    They've already done a background check. But as I've said many times, how does the FBI investigate a claim that supposedly only three people know about that has no location, no time, no date, no explanation for how Ford got there and no explanation for how she left or where she went. They have no physical evidence for DNA. All they can do is ask Kavanaugh and the three others if they did it and they say they have no idea what Ford is taking about and it is made up. So they go to Ford, and she can only give them what we have so far. End of story. Nothing to "investigate." You act like there is concrete evidence. It is entirely possible that this is a political hit with a story crafted so that it gets an allegation out that can never be proved or disproved, especially because Ford just hired a Democrat political operative and she has been working in concert with the Dems on asking for a hearing, then saying a hearing shouldn't happen, then saying that the FBI should investigate first.
