Calling all sane people. We have to stand up, draw the red line, make America sane again. Because the Left will never stop. Even after Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh is confirmed (at this writing, it seems likely to happen on Saturday), they will do anything they can to get him off the Court or delegitimize him. Since there is no corroboration whatsoever of any sexual misconduct on his part, they’ll try to impeach him on allegations of over-indulging in adult beverages when he was a teen and lying about it. That’s quite a stretch, because it seemed to me that he was quite forthcoming under oath about his great fondness for beer as a teenager –- maybe even going a little overboard on that point. But it doesn’t matter.
Or they’ll try to get him for his very understandable rant --- his "temperament" --- when he was called before the Judiciary Committee to defend himself against unsubstantiated allegations of attempted rape. (And, of course, he couldn't win. If he'd been calm, they'd be saying an innocent man would have been angry.) He has written an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal explaining his “emotional” and “passionate” reaction to his youthful behavior being “ridiculously distorted” in front of his family and expressing the hope that he would be evaluated on the merits of his usual calm demeanor. Leftists are already ridiculing him for writing it. His usual calm demeanor doesn’t matter.

Or they’ll just keep screaming in elevators, even after Kavanaugh is confirmed. As long as George Soros’ money is flowing, and the leftist organizations he supports can be emotionally and financially prodded, the hysteria will continue. Even now, they’re trying to lecture women, specifically white women (yes, this is also about race –- didn’t you know?), about the evils of supporting Kavanaugh. The fact that the vote will have already been taken doesn’t matter.
Some have speculated that certain states will even ignore Court decisions in which Kavanaugh’s opinion was not to their liking. That is anarchy –- potentially the beginning of the end of federalism. But it doesn’t seen far-fetched, considering that California has already done something similar by declaring itself a “sanctuary state.” The fact that this signals a breakdown in our system of government doesn’t matter. (I'll go further to say that's exactly what they want!)
The ACLU (Anti-American Clueless Leftists Union) has done a “180” and said that, in Kavanaugh’s case, he should have to prove that he’s not guilty. It even ran a shocking ad likening him to Bill Clinton and Bill Cosby, who’ve been proven guilty of sexual misconduct and lying. The ACLU is over. It's actually saying that since “this isn’t a criminal trial,” basic principles such as individual rights and presumption of innocence don’t matter.
Tammy Bruce (who also happens to be sick of liberals lecturing women) made an excellent point to FOX News’ Tucker Carlson on Thursday, echoing what we’ve been saying here: “We [women] know what our lives have been, we know what we require, and we require a justice system that is fair. And we require due process. We do want to be taken seriously, but the only way we will be taken seriously is if the system can be trusted.” Are you listening, ACLU? Of course not, because conservative women don’t matter.
It’s clear now: NOTHING matters to these people other than getting their way. They don’t care how they do it. They’ll use whatever argument is useful to them at the moment, and they can turn on a dime and say the opposite thing if they need to. When the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee tried to drag out the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation process forever by calling for an FBI investigation, they all followed certain talking points. (That’s just what they did when calling for a special counsel to investigate the Trump campaign’s “collusion” with Russia, but I digress.) One of them was that the FBI represented the pinnacle of professionalism, independence and objectivity --- that if the investigation was left to them, they would do a better job than anyone else at getting to the truth. And Trump stepped back and gave them the go-ahead.
When experts tried to tell them that the FBI essentially just talks to people and takes notes, making no determination of guilt or innocence, it didn’t matter. (Only when then-FBI Director James Comey came to his own conclusions about not prosecuting Hillary Clinton did they depart from that policy, but I digress again.), They wanted the FBI. All the Democrats got the memo. Chuck Schumer, Kamala Harris, the whole crowd; it was all they could talk about. The fact that Kavanaugh had already undergone six FBI background checks in his career and qualified for the highest security clearance known to man didn’t matter.
And the Democrats got their way, of course. They got the FBI, and when the FBI didn’t reach the conclusion they demanded, the Bureau was condemned by the very people who had exalted it. Some even said it was conspiring with the Trump administration to cover up its findings. (Wow, that would be a switch.) They said they wouldn’t accept the results of the FBI investigation until they interrogated Dr. Christine Blasey Ford. Of course, that was just another attempt at stalling; trust me, they do NOT want the FBI interrogating Dr. Ford. She has so many inconsistencies and fuzzy memories in her testimony that she barely made it through the Senate hearing. The more she talks, the worse it’s going to be for her case. Now that more people have been questioned for the record, she’s never going to be able to reconcile her testimony with what they’ve said. In fact, I think the Democrats realize this and wouldn’t be calling so loudly for her to be questioned if they thought there was even a remote possibility of that happening at this point.
Sen. Chuck Grassley, in a press conference following the announced wrap-up of the FBI investigation, called the process “a demolition derby.” He said “it really just about destroyed a good person...” We can’t allow this kind of thing to become standard for Supreme Court nominees.
Andrew C. McCarthy has an outstanding column in NATIONAL REVIEW about the complaints the Democrats have now about the FBI investigation. Of course, he correctly said at the start that this was all about delaying, nothing more. On the chance they might (shudder) win back the Senate at the midterm election, they’ve got to keep Kavanaugh from being confirmed for another month. So, of course, they want more time, but the FBI has done its job. McCarthy points out that the Senate has more information about Kavanaugh than it has ever had about any judicial nominee in history, and he goes into detail about that. It’s just exhaustive. As for Kavanaugh’s fitness for the job, that’s the Senate’s call, not the FBI’s.
The liberals we know who insist on lecturing us about why the Kavanaugh investigation wasn’t thorough and why it needs to be extended for “as long as it takes” (translation: at least one more month) should be pointed to McCarthy’s column. It refutes the objections point-by-point.
The time has come for us to draw the line. The Kavanaugh confirmation process has shown us what leftists really are, in High-Def, 3D, CinemaScope and Technicolor. We conservatives are the adults in the room, and we are tired of being dictated to by toddlers who can't stand not being in control. Their tantrums will continue, of course, until they start realizing their behavior is not working and is, in fact, working against them.
