You're whining about the Democrats delaying a SCOTUS pick. You didn't whine when the Republicans did it.
If it was bad now, it was bad then. But I suspect you didn't think it was bad then. So... see the problem?
Rushing? Has anything in our government ever happened as a result of rushing? Are politicians even capable of such a thing?
Her sworn testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee does not mirror the account she gave in her letter to the WaPo.

It wasn't a script it was an opening statement. Are you going to state Kavanaugh's was committee scripted when he gives his as well?
The Iraq War?
Ah, this is the 'rushing' I was meaning:
Under White House pressure, the Senate Republican leadership is moving to expedite the final stages of Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court after Thursday’s planned hearing featuring the woman who has accused him of sexual assault when they were teenagers.
GOP Sets Committee Vote on Kavanaugh for Friday
You can get this from any news source you like though, the intent to go-ahead and not be slowed down. Of course, I don't take that as written in stone, that nothing could make McConnell slow down. I presume McConnell presumed nothing would come up that is significant. I suppose if something new and significant came up, McConnell might slow down, and not push it through in a rush.
To me, the 2 new men that showed up yesterday are something significant. And needing investigation. My hope is that everything possible come to light as totally as possible.
I'd be delighted for K to be confirmed with many doubts removed....should that be possible.
Rushing seems to make that very unlikely. See?
Kind of hard when you get interrupted every 5 min. Mitchell hasn't even built her case yet, but she is getting close. I see where she is going.As for Mitchell, what a complete disappointment. I could conduct a better cross examination than she is doing.
Many doubts? There were none until the last hour before his confirmation. How do unsubstantiated allegations create doubt? Actual evidence could create doubt, but I have seen none.
The answer you would like an investigation to uncover.What is it exactly "we" already "know"? Looks like another has come forward claiming responsibility. What do we "know"? I know people are rushing to judgement without a court or hearing. Is that good old country justice?
Ford's was written by committee, carefully crafted with (cry here) inserts and every victimology buzzword in existence.
Can I get your source for this accusation please?
Have you not listened to her testimony? She sounds like a thirteen year old girl. In addition, given all the hype concerning her education, she didn't even know what the term exculpatory meant? A PHD in psychology and she doesn't know how a polygraph is conducted? She just remembers things all over her body? This is insane.
Good point. Please remove the prejudicial word 'whining' when you write your otherwise good point!
Ok, I'll take it as just a family like way of talking, as from love then (though I wasn't one of the 'whiners', and can't speak for them)No. I meant exactly what I said.
A good, decent man is being destroyed right in front of us all, and our friends across the aisle are snickering with glee. I find it infuriating the so called prosecutor the Republicans hired is treating this as a deposition as opposed to a hearing, acting so afraid to offend or even sound the least bit aggressive in her questioning the rebuttal case isn't being advanced in any fashion. Mitchell has gotten no where while the Democrats are crafting the image of an accomplished woman living a completely devastated life. Both can not be true.
No I see an effort of tit for tat. Enjoy the delays, evidently by your own admission politics is all about paybacks, and the Republican bank is mighty full after almost two years.
