That I was going to write this post.
I'm calling out the whole Kavanaugh mess, from start to finish.
Christine Blasey Ford reported the alleged assault to Dianne Feinstein, requesting anonymity. But apparently someone leaked the story. Who? Feinstein says not me, nor any of mine. Whether lying or telling the truth, I have seen 8 year-olds much more convincing.
Well, say The-Powers-That-Be, we shall investigate. We shall have a bully good investigation. Very thorough. One. Week. Long. Oooh, yeah! Way to pull out all the stops and do it up right!
And my previous post gives my opinion of the lovely job the FBI did.
And just in case the "liberal news media" reported any fake news, our Pussy-Grabber-In-Chief weighed in every day, because, why be presidential and statesman-like and quietly let the judicial process run its course, when we can grab attention for ourselves with daily interviews and Tweets?
The hearings themselves were a joke, filled with lousy questioning of both principals, and senators who were easily intimidated by Cacophonous Kavanaugh, displaying his even judicial temperament for all to see.
During the investigation, the care, sympathy, and righteous anger shown was heartening. Surely God Himself never thundered down more angrily than Lindsey Graham. Of course, damned little of it made its way to the actual alleged victim. Poor Brett Kavanuagh, his reputation has been dragged though the mud. His poor family. He's an innocent victim. And we got to hear about all his years of hard work and his fabulous intellect. All of those things, of course, could just as easily be said about Dr. Ford, but did we hear them?
And while the FBI investigated, people who were in the know about Kavanaugh, who tried to weigh in and were not allowed to, were forced to do so elsewhere.
When it all came out in the wash, and the decision was made (not enough evidence, blah, blah, blah) to confirm, there were those who could not contain their enthusiasm.
And Mr. Trump, always the soul of consistency, described Christine Blasey Ford as a "very credible witness" one week, then the next referred to gaps in her memory, before basically branding her as a tool for "hoaxers".
All of it nauseating. And here we are, poised between the rock of near-civil-war, and the hard place of snowball-headed-for-hell. Grand time to be alive, ain't it?
A Shout-Out within a Call-Out to Nancy Pelosi. Good luck and give 'em hell, Nance!
And, folks, always remember and please never forget, if you ever commit a crime, waive your right to a jury trial, and ask to be investigated by the FBI and the Senate. Maybe one week later you, too can be pronounced "proven innocent" by Mr. Trump, just like Brett Kavanaugh.
