The Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday formally postponed a vote on Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court nomination, canceling a meeting set for later this week where a vote was initially expected to happen
Staffers for Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) sent out a notice that the Thursday business meeting had been canceled. The Senate is expected to leave town for the week on Tuesday.
The delay for a vote to advance Kavanaugh's nomination was widely expected following allegations from Christine Blasey Ford, a professor who alleges that Kavanaugh held her down and tried to remove her clothes at a party in the early 1980s when both were in high school.
Kavanaugh has denied the allegations.
Grassley announced this week that Kavanaugh would testify before the Judiciary Committee for a second time next Monday, days after the initial committee vote was scheduled
Grassley has yet to say when the Senate panel will now vote on Kavanaugh's nomination
The chairman declined to comment when leaving a closed-door meeting of Judiciary Committee Republicans on Monday night. Grassley also dodged questions about it on Tuesday morning during an interview with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt
Kavanaugh's nomination first appeared on the Judiciary Committee's agenda roughly a week after the initial round of hearings took place.
President Trump on Tuesday ramped up his defense of Kavanaugh amid the allegations, saying he "is not a man who deserves this." Kavanaugh confirmation before midterms will result in GOP loss of the HOR, he's that bad.
The GOP wing of the party will totally lose the HOR if they confirm *JJ Swamp before the midterm elections.
*Jesuit Judge Swamp
Now Kavi can go back to picking up Hillary's spent shell casings, and other cover up ops to protect her.

Had to believe that the Republicans let this happen. They have the power, and could simply ignore the nonsense and plow ahead. Let's say that Kavanaugh did what was said: locked a girl in a room 30 years ago. Who cares? It's long done. The statute of limitations has run. The whole thing is ridiculous.
This is true. Let's say that Kavanaugh did what was said: locked a girl in a room 30 years ago. Who cares? The man probably had such a squeeky clean record in College they had to go back to High School to find something. Ok, Don't know about you Vic but there are many things I did in High School I am not proud of. It's long done. The statute of limitations has run. The whole thing is ridiculous. Not to be callous I have to agree. There was no police report, rape kit no evidence it is the classic "he said, she said" scenario from 35 years ago. The Democrats apparently believe in sinless perfection. Go figure.
I will freely and candidly admit every immoral thing I ever did. The reason I keep my mouth shut about all of it is not to protect me. It is to protect the other half of the relationships. They have families and children and reputations too. Mine will shrug their shoulders - I never claimed to be a saint. People hide things for a reason. It is not my place to go exposing them.
Sound judgement and sense.
PJ Media did a nice little satire piece:
The Interrogation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh That was good. You may enjoy a new HuffPo poll. https://big.assets.huffingtonpost.com/athena/files/2018/09/19/5ba234fde4b046313fc11590.pdf Huffington Post has a YouGov poll with Question #9 regarding Christine Blasey Ford — "9. Credible accusation Do you think that the allegation of sexual assault against Brett Kavanaugh generally is or is not credible?" The results show that the following percentages found her allegation credible: 26% — total 26% — total All that huffing and puffing and still no sale. A HuffPo poll. That had to sting.
You know just as well as I do that they don't give one damn about that poll no matter how stupid it makes them look. It's all about the end game which is make sure Kavanaugh is not confirmed.
You see this one yet? Montgomery County police: No word from Christine Blasey Ford about Kavanaugh investigation The helmet BDE is on the move there.

Lol. Yeah he's been sitting on a couple of the Kavanaugh threads for a couple of days now. You would think he has something better to do but I guess not. He was on the board almost continuously from 10AM to 2AM and made about 40 posts strictly on Kavnaugh. And I'd bet if I took the time to read from his very first post on the subject the theme would be "Kavanaugh is guilty he needs to be hung, neutered, drawn and quartered". AAARRRGGGHHHH....... That subject most be his only assignment from his handlers lol... BTW I sent you a PM.
