No ****. As a species, we sure are creative when it comes to inventing a variety of death cults.

Aliens.
Middle Eastern men who died hundreds of years ago.
Lack of sex.
Pretty much anything will do, apparently.
 
Some of those new allegations are a bit shocking and if true very troubling. Also troubling is some of her statements include she saw lines to the bedrooms where she knew people to be getting raped and did not call police or do anything or say anything to anyone at the time potentially stopping the crime she was witnessing?

Well, apparently she claims to have witnesses. Lets watch the circus play out. Frankly, this last minute crap does not taste well for many reasons.

As noted upthread - this is actually entirely routine. FBI background checks for judicial appointees have been re-opened 10 times in the last 3 months. The call to re-open this one isn't what makes it an anomaly, the refusal to do so is.

Ford cold have come forward in July. Feinstein could have called for more background checking in July. Re-opening the process isn't unusual. But I bet you're not interested in re-opening background checks on nominees from three years ago. I bet that at some point between last July and July 2021, you'll want to draw the line and say the time to do background checks has passed, and the time to decide has come.

Apparently nobody called the police. During a teenage party. Where questionable and bad **** happened. I'm not sure how sheltered a life one has to lead to find this shocking. More sheltered than mine I guess, because I don't find it shocking at all.

As far as "last minute" - It's a pretty normal pattern, where one person speaking out leads to others finally speaking for a variety of reasons. It is only 'last minute' because the turtle McConnell is making it "last minute" with an arbitrary deadline.

AIUI, she did.

I don't know exactly what you're assuming or implying, or what point you think you're proving by doing so, but whatever it is it's something that you've invented out of whole cloth and has absolutely nothing to do with anything I've said, or anything I believe.

Is this another case of someone who is partisan being utterly unable to imagine that other people aren't?

And yet he said it was legal at the time in his Fox interview. Odd thing to lie about.

He said it was legal for seniors at the time referenced in the question, so he can Clinton his way out of that obvious lie. Still should be asked to him under oath, “ explain why you lied about the drinking age, or how you told a quibbling truth that you know became a lie the same year you were discussing.”
 
Third woman reports on Kav's high school days:
Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh was accused Wednesday by another woman of having engaged in sexual misconduct at parties while he was a student at Georgetown Preparatory School in the 1980s.

The allegation came from Julie Swetnick, 55, who like Judge Kavanaugh, 53, grew up in the Washington suburbs. In a statement posted on Twitter by her lawyer, Ms. Swetnick said she observed the future Supreme Court nominee at parties where women were verbally abused, inappropriately touched and “gang raped."

That's too bad you don't find it shocking. I bet you would if it was your daughter. Also, My late teen and early twenties years were pretty wild as I performed in several bands. If someone I knew was drugging women and raping them they would not only get their ass kicked, they'd be lucky to make it to jail.
 
Just dump the dick waggler/rapist/hypocrite.

Get a new abortion banning corporate lackey candidate. How about Ted Cruz? After he loses Senate race.

Again, FBI investigations can be pretty quick. If they had requested an FBI review when Ford came forward they would have the report by now. It is the GOP that is trying to hold the vote as quickly as possible while simultaneously trying to sandbag any real investigation of the accusations (which do seem to be piling up).

I'd draw the line once the decision has been made that background checks as part of the hiring process stop - right up until the terms of service are signed however, if new information comes to light...

Your statement infers incels can only be men. Only blame women? Or can incels be women that blame men as well? I do find it rather amusing that people would use these in a forum setting. Is anyone here an incel? Do you know of some incels? Is this like an insulting term one would use like a racial insult? (only sexual?)

Curious minds want to know.

nope.

why don't you do some research and see if you can dig up a female incel?
