Especially when you throw in Justice Stevens statement.

I don’t see how any rational person could believe Kavanaugh will be an impartial judge.

They should've said they are withdrawing the original rating until their new evaluation is completed.

You can't give those spineless fuckers any wiggle room at all because they will wiggle right into it.

of that puzzle.

Yes, they have to rush this because I bet more victims will be coming forward. I suspect someone with money would fund a private investigator to research and find the most credible victims and witnesses.

I'd love for the next election to have slogans like, "Vote Democratic. Republicans put rapists in power."
