Wasn't the FBI a sham a few months ago for criticizing Trump?

Yep, I'm just an idiot because I don't agree with you. Solid take.
Its not false. Its a superior set of beliefs . Carry on .
I think there are people in the FBI who clearly conspired to hinder Trump before and after his election.
I also think this FBI investigation was a sham in the sense that everyone knew from the beginning that, no matter the scope and time given, it would never turn up anything more than the Senate hearings (i.e. nothing)
So, I'm not relying on the FBI investigation as any proof or disproof for my position on Kavanaugh. BUT, the Democrats were doing exactly that one week ago. Remember when every Senator started their questioning by asking Kavanaugh to personally ask for an FBI investigation? And how Flake agreed to a one week investigation upon "counsel" with Democratic Senators?
So, no, there's no hypocrisy from me because I didn't GAF about the investigation to begin with. Try to keep up, it's really not that hard
Had Hillary won as expected you guys could have Garland or virtually anyone else you wanted. The left thought that this seat and a liberal majority on the court were theirs. Then Trump happened and he got to pick the new justice. The left would have tried to destroy any conservative justice Trump named. As far as moral superiority goes, the GOP has never tried to destroy the character of a liberal nominee the way the dems have done to Bork, Thomas and Kavanaugh.
This a very well thought out rebuttal. Thank you.
I don't agree with all of it, but I appreciate that you actually discussed the issue rather than resorting to just calling Democrats stupid.
I'm not registered as a Repulican or Democrat. I've voted both ways in the last few elections, so I guess that would make me a moderate or independent. I agree that the Democrats have created this mess for political reasons (to try to protect Roe v Wade mainly), but I just don't like Kavanaugh and the way he carries himself. That might make me petty, but I'm just not a fan of his.
That said, that doesn't mean he is guilty of sexual assault. It also doesn't mean he's not. We'll likely never know.
I'm willing to listen, why don't you tell me how you know Christine Blasey Ford is telling the truth. If you believe something without evidence then you may be an idiot. And yes that is a solid take.
Do you believe in innocent until proven guilty or are you a guilty until proven innocent type Democrat?
That's fair, and I appreciate the thoughtful response as opposed to personal attacks.
For the record, I'm not registered Republican or Democrat, just a natural contrarian.
What a shock, people responding ON A MESSAGE BOARD. Lol
I’ll say it again...... us posting on a random forum in a random thread on a random sports message board in NO WAY equates to the real life hatred and violence you and your elected officials are demonstrating in the real world on a daily basis.
Speaking of faux moral superiority....... get over yourself and get your head out of your ass.
Aside from one of Flake and Co not voting, everyone is expecting Kav to get in. And the Dems only hurt themselves for November as Republican turnout is on the rise.
.. if you just would have not been little shits, you might have only taken one loss. But now, this might be one of the biggest political victories in some time. Not to mention, no one is going to put up with this nonsense when RBG goes. Can't keep crying wolf.

No liberal ever posted here... they're all moderates.
I poked ya a little but your views are welcome by me . I dont really like echo chambers and robotic thought.
I didn't say I believed her. I said she was credible, and she was/is. There's a difference, but I don't have to tell you because you're much smarter than me.
Do I think she is lying? No, I don't. Do I think she could be misremembering some things? Sure. We'll likely never know either way.
Oh, and if you immediately think people are stupid because they don't think the same way you do, then you may be an asshole. And yes, that's a solid take.
Lefty accuses someone of sexual assault, attacks the person for defending himself.
Lefty makes a dumb ass post on a message board asking for a reply, attacks people for replying.
Idiots, the lot of them.
That's the most retarded thing I've ever read.
The definition of "credible" literally is "able to be believed; convincing".
She isn't credible at all. Her story is not believable. There isn't a shred of evidence and it is full of inconsistencies.
Oh, is that what this website is for? I had no idea. I guess I am stupid after all. Damn.
I was commenting on the speed with which the responses came, not that they came at all. I just picture you guys hitting F5 in this thread just waiting for something to get all riled up about. It's funny to me as I try to ignore the work that I'm supposed to be doing right now.
I do. I think she is a liberal activist and since when has a liberal activist told the truth. The truth is not in them. Like I said and it needs to be repeated, BK and any Supreme Court nominee who is seen as a threat to this sacred right of women to kill a baby in their womb will be destroyed. Male or female they will be attacked and destroyed. Your side has destroyed Kavanaugh and now we go to the next one. Trump may nominate Judge Barrett if some one can wake up Ginsberg and tell her she is the walking dead. . Watch them go after Barrett and destroy her.
The poor little "doctor" will be exposed as a liar, if one will open their eyes they will understand She will be fortunate not to be tried for perjury. She lied in front of a Senate committee. Many times. But she still has her liberal lapdogs and media to cover for her so I doubt anything will come of it. Democrats have a "Liar's Club" card and that gives them a pass.
Far be it from a political expert.. but today *might* be kind of important. I'm gonna guess that traffic to the Political Forum here might be sort of high.
Congratulations on your googling skills to get that definition.
I know you're not this stupid, but I'll spell it out for you anyway.
Plenty of things can be believable ("able to be believed") without evidence. That doesn't mean it's true, just that it's believable.
Before 2 weeks ago, the biggest negative they were saying about Kavanaugh's personal life was that he liked basketball too much. Kavanaugh wasnt even the guy I wanted Trump to choose, but Im glad Trump and the rest of the GOP have decided this is a hill they're willing to die on.
This is just about principles and not cowering down to an obvious smear tactic.
What was credible?
That's fair, and I get it.
You're right that Democrats would likely do this with any nominee, so if this is the time for Republicans to make a stand, then I can understand that.
I just don't like BK. Rubs me the wrong way.
Thanks for actually answering the original question.
I dont think too many on the right are trying to hold the FBI up to be this great thing now cause of the investigation. I think most people on the right have gone about this entire FBI thing as
Why is everyone on the left screaming for an FBI investigation when 25 years ago Biden made a huge statement going out of his way to say how little the FBI can really do in a situation like this.
They already have sworn affidavits by everyone in question, that is basically all the FBI can do in this situation. When it was announced they were going to do the investigation, many people on the right just said it was pointless and nothing is going to come from it, but if that is the hill the left was going to die on, then so be it, have the investigation.
Lmao love Lebron he hired armed guards for his home he will be a great liberal politician
So we don't allow people you don't like on the Supreme Court? I bet you don't like Clarence Thomas either. Tell us, who do you like?
Really? Who's being dense now?
Like I have any bearing on who ends up on the Supreme Court, lol.
I don't like Tom Crean, so I would never want him to be our coach. Does that matter to anyone at UK? No. It's just my opinion. Nothing more.
We're done here.
Where would you like me to get the literal definition of a word for you? Do you keep a paper copy of a dictionary nearby? Jesus.
You lefties and your fairy tails.
More importantly, it doesn't disqualify him from being appointed to the court.
No, jackass, I have a vocabulary and know what some words mean without having to look them up.
And I'm not a lefty or a righty. But you're a douchebag.
Do you know what the word "literal" means?
It means if I'm going to give you the literal definition, I'm going to tell you what's actually in the dictionary, you goddam dunce.
What is credible about her allegation?
Once no one could be found to back it up, the credibility was lost. She should’ve never been able to testify before the senate judiciary, and wouldn’t have if Feinstein hadn’t waited to leak it. Which is exactly why she did, she knew if it was looked into it would fall apart, so she was hoping simply the accusation would torpedo the nomination.
It’s f*cking ridiculous that the Dems operate that way, it makes a mockery of our Govt.

Another ‘moderate’ with lock-step liberal views/takes.
Unreal.
Unreal.
Hmm, I think so.
Let me try.
I literally want you to GFY. As in go find a quiet place and see if you can contort your body into that position.
Yep, I think I got it.
Flake and Collins appear to be headed to "Yes" votes after new FBI report.
