Turning The Ballot Box Against Republicans

Kavanagh worked in the Bush Administration and which have a bearing on what he will be like as a Supreme Court justice.

What-you have some objection to checking out the president's choice for a Supreme Court justice before voting him in?

Personal opinion?

No, the public has a problem with "last minute" issues that were "known" about 6 weeks prior to them being brought up.

Kavanagh was a lawyer. He had a high position in the White House Counsel's office. It's absurd to think that would not be pertinent to his opinion on the law and the Constitution.

The Office of the Staff Secretary, along with its sub-offices—the Office of the Executive Clerk, the Office of Records Management, and the Office of Presidential Correspondence—is the largest of the White House Offices.[1]

The public doesn't actually care much about minor adjustments in procedure if the truth comes out. I think the public wants him to be checked out, and if they have to re-open a case a few days later, so what.

It's clear the Trump supporters are trying to make another excuse for Kavanagh to get rushed through. The papers from the Bush Administration were released a day before the hearings, too late for anyone to check anything out. Clearly Kavanagh is being pushed through before anyone can do anything about it.

As far as the 6 weeks, the person in question made it clear she did not want to come forward, as attempted rape victims find the recollection quite devastating. Then the story came out anyway, and she figured as long as she has to deal with the public knowing, she might as well let the sstory out. Outside of the strongest Trump supporters, nobody cares about 6 weeks. The public cares about whether Kavanagh did it.

During a subcomitte hearing on the investigation, Senator Rob Portman said that US agencies were responsible for these children ending up in the hands of traffickers.

“It is intolerable that human trafficking — modern-day slavery — could occur in our own backyard. What makes the Marion cases even more alarming is that a U.S. government agency was responsible for delivering some of the victims into the hands of their abusers,” Portman said after learning of the case.

“Whatever your views on immigration policy, everyone can agree that the administration has a responsibility to ensure the safety of the migrant kids that have entered government custody until their immigration court date,” Portman said.

This is on Obama's watch. The Dems care so much about the children,

He is a lawyer, but he was not in the Counsel's office, get your facts straight, he was the White House Staff Secretary. It's absurd to think you would actually have the correct information.

When George W. Bush took office in 2001, his first White House counsel, Alberto R. Gonzales, hired Mr. Kavanaugh as an associate counsel....
.....Mr. Kavanaugh advised the White House on dealing with the investigation into the collapsed energy firm Enron. But much of his time went to judicial nominations, particularly to the D.C. Circuit on which he would later serve. He worked on the candidacy of Miguel Estrada, a prominent conservative who was blocked by Democrats, and he strongly backed nominating John Roberts, later to become chief justice.

Minor adjustments? If this were the GOP doing this same last minute "Hail Mary", you would be frothing at the mouth.

There have been no excuses to push anything through. Sotomayor was nominated and confirmed in less that 3 months, in fact it was done in 72 days. In fact it's been 70 days since Kavanagh was nominated, so "pushed through" is a massive lie.

Judge Kavanaugh had over 4,800 pages of opinions provided for review. On the evening of September 3, just hours before the hearing began, as part of the nomination process around 457 thousand additional documents had been produced in response to his nomination as of September 3, 2018.[61] A nominee questionnaire was also returned with 17 thousand pages of supporting documents. Over 267 thousand of the documents not already public as part of his service in the Bush administration have been released publicly.[62][63][64][65] The White House of the Trump administration has used presidential privilege to prevent the public release of over 100,000 pages of Kavanaugh’s records of his service for the Bush administration.[66]

Anything to get a conservative court.

Why is every conversation with you a waste of goddamn time? I have to unravel every cockamamie notion you pick up wrong and then go on for post after post maintaining it.

Next time get your own facts straight before criticizing others for getting them right.

After George W. Bush became president in 2001, Kavanaugh was hired as an associate by the White House Counsel, Alberto Gonzales.[25] There, Kavanaugh worked on the Enron scandal, the successful nomination of Chief Justice John Roberts, and the unsuccessful nomination of Miguel Estrada.[25] Starting in 2003, he served as Assistant to the President and White House Staff Secretary.[27] In that capacity, he was responsible for coordinating all documents to and from the president.

The Staff Secretary ("Staff Sec") is a position in the White House Office responsible for managing paper flow to the President and circulating documents among senior staff for comment. It has been referred to as "the nerve center of the White House."

Notable cases
The Supreme Court has adopted Kavanaugh's position on cases 13 times, and has reversed his position only once. These included cases involving environmental regulations, criminal procedure, the separation of powers and extraterritorial jurisdiction in human rights abuse cases.[25][48] He has been regarded as a feeder judge.[49]

Yes, minor adjustments. They didn't even take a single vote yet, and now a major new issue comes up days before the vote. Opening it up again is no big deal.

Everybody on both sides were given all the information that was requested with Sotomayor before the vote. Here, as I stated previously and which you ignored, there were records from Kavanaugh'a time in government and the White House Counsel's office as well as the Ken Starr investigation that likely reveal much about Kavanaugh's legal philosophies and approaches, but they were denied access to the committee until the day before the hearing.

Dumping documents until the day before the hearing when there was no time to read them, Trump outright witholding 100,000 pages of documents about Kavanaugh's service to the White House-of course they're trying to jam him through.

Fact is, the GOP knows they better get Kavanaugh through quick because they figure if they take the normal time, he'll never make it.

Except there was photographic evidence against him.

It doesn't matter if she wanted to come forward or not, she made the claim and now has to defend it. This is the joke about all of this, it could have been done 6 weeks ago
