Democrats turned the confirmation hearings for Brett Kavanaugh, a distinguished federal judge and well-respected community member, into a bizarre circus of interruptions, both from shrieking audience members and from Democratic committee members who complained obsessively on document production, despite the fact the custodians of Bush presidential records had cleared for release every individual document requested by Democrats.
Now we know
that while they were preening and posing and proclaiming “I am Spartacus!” they
were also doing precisely what they were falsely accusing Republicans of —
concealing a document. Specifically, concealing a letter from Christine Blasey
Ford accusing Kavanaugh of sexual assault somewhere in suburban Maryland
sometime in the 1980s. That document — which, if not concealed prior to the
hearings could have been resolved through background investigation or through
public interrogation — was instead held by committee Democrats for leaked
public release (in violation of Senate rules) after the
hearings, on the eve of a scheduled vote.
The strategy?
Delay, delay, delay. Win the Senate. Keep the seat open through the next
presidential election. Win the White House. Appoint a liberal. We know that
because the Democratic point woman in the smear campaign, Senator Mazie Hirono
of Hawaii, was asked point blank by Politico if a Democratic Senate
would keep the Kavanaugh seat vacant for two full years and she said: “I think
we’ve had those types of vacancies before… so the world does not come to an
end.”
The Blasey Ford
letter was not credible on its face. But the purpose behind its release was to
stall and delay, and for that it worked.........To Read More.....
