This reeks of a political move.
That is because it is a political move. That is why they call it politics. Now it is the Republicans move, which really isn't much in my opinion.
To me it seems like the Democrate Leaders don't want Trump as President more than the Republican Leaders want him as President.
Trump is representing the people that voted for him against our own government moreso than any other President in my memory.
He should tell the republican leadership that if they will not support him then he will run 3rd party in the next election. I know, I know. Partisan Republicans will hate that idea, but imagine how much more support Trump will gain from the middle.
There is no more sure way to get a democrat elected than for Trump to run 3rd party.

So many right wing politicians, media personalities and friends of the right wing have been found guilty of sexual misdeeds, yet they continue to cry that they are being railroaded. Hell, even the president toad has been accused of it.
So once again they flood ATS with questions about the accuser, like they are dumbfounded that someone in their party is possibly guilty of something sexual.
All Hail President Toad.

PRESUMPTION OF INNOCENCE.. WHAT PART OF THAT DON"T YOU MORONS GET, burden of proof is on the accuser not the accused

Presumption of innocence only applies during criminal proceedings.
This is a confirmation hearing, presumption does not apply.
In fact, considering that the position in question is for life, not just a certain term, it is even more important that the candidate be above even the suggestion of reproach.
Nice ad hominem, by the way.

All Hail President Toad.
So many left wing politicians, celebrities, and media personalities have been found guilty.
So I guess any suggestions against left wing people must also be automatically believed as well, correct?

You have a source for that?
If so, it should be investigated by the appropriate authorities.
If not, I take it that was your lame attempt to make a point.

Of course. When it comes to sexual assault of any kind, the assault should be taken seriously until proven to be false.
Yet, it appears you guys are not willing to give this woman a chance. Why don't you guys find it curious that Kavanaugh or his people had a list of women willing to say he is not an assaulter, ready so quickly, it is like he or his people were expecting it?

Hahahaha!
So if he has no women defend him, that is proof he is guilty.
If women do defend him, this is proof he is guilty.
Who is not giving this woman a chance?
I am willing to hear her out. So is the senate.
Yet she is refusing to testify now.
Are you saying you presume kavanaugh is guilty based merely on the accusation, and saying its up to him to prove his innocence?

Actually i find it suspicious how fast this letter came out. It was like he or his people knew this would come out, so had a letter prepaid.
You don't find this suspicious?
You're probably going to ask wasn't i suspicious of this woman, yep but let there be an investigation to clear him or her.

Again I ask, do you think the burden of proof is on kavanaugh to prove his innocence?
The burden is on both parties, the accuser and the accused.
