(32,731 posts)Just say, "reopen the background check and interview those involved in the attempted rape incident. Then issue a revised report." Sadly, even Joe and Mika were acting confused about what an "investigation" would uncover. I thought they were smarter than that.
So Dr. Ford's team and democrats should simplify the language being used so everyone will understand. Otherwise, repubs are able to mock the question and slither out of demanding that the white house reopen the file.

(41,171 posts)A hearing before the Senate Committee as proposed for Monday places the questioning and outcome solely in the hands of partisan politicians with special interests. BK has had an FBI evaluation, as pundits state, but they often omit that it was conducted before Dr. Ford's allegations.
