Republicans allowing for anything less than a full under oath hearing will be a mistake.

If Dr. Ford is denied a hearing, she will be all over the television telling her story. How do republicans think that will help them?

1. End of womens rights, gay rights, workers rights, environmental protection rights,

you bet your ass NOTHING will stop them.

I want to be wrong, believe me

voting rights
almost forgot that one

2. Republicans do not care...the SCOTUS seat is primary, all other considerations are secondary.

They abide Trump to get this seat...
They tore up the Senate to get this seat...
They stiffed Garland and Obama to get this seat...
They have heaped enough shame on themselves to last 3 generations...but they are going to get this seat and a nearly insurmountable 5-4 (or worse) edge in the SCOTUS for the next 20 years.

They only care about one thing...getting that seat into the most overtly noxious hands they can as fast as possible before returning to the status of the "Party of No" for the foreseeable future.

3. Just read a letter from Dr.Fords High School..in support of her speaking out -

Here’s the statement in full:

Statement from Susanna A. Jones


Holton-Arms School


Sep 16 7:00 PM


In a recent article, The Washington Post describes an alleged assault of one of our alumnae by Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh that occurred in the early 1980s, while she was a student at Holton-Arms. In these cases, it is imperative that all voices are heard. As a school that empowers women to use their voices, we are proud of this alumna for using hers.

Do you suppose this HS kept records of any reported incidents - just asking...probably not from that era..
