Pence: 'The Way Some Democrats Have Conducted Themselves' During Kavanaugh Process Is a 'Disgrace'

Source: Mediate



by Josh Feldman | Sep 22nd, 2018, 12:45 pm

Vice President Mike Pence spoke at the Values Voters Summit today and briefly addressed the ongoing deliberations concerning the Brett Kavanaugh Supreme Court confirmation.

The vP touted the number of judges the Trump administration has confirmed to date before bringing up the Supreme Court, Neil Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh.

Pence expressed his confidence that Kavanaugh will be confirmed, and while he did not directly address the sexual assault allegation against him, he said this:

“His record and career deserves the respect of every member of the United States Senate. But honestly, the way some Democrats have conducted themselves during this process is a disgrace and a disservice to the Senate and the American people. That being said, the President and I are confident that Senate Republicans will manage this confirmation properly with the utmost respect for all concerned, and I believe that Judge Brett Kavanaugh will soon be Justice Brett Kavanaugh and take his seat on the Supreme Court of the United States of America.”

all the traitors to America and Russian/Foreign mobsters that took part in that coup.

And like Manafort and Trumpy, he has a history of being dishonest and shady with campaign money. "During a failed 1990 congressional run, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence used nearly $13,000 in campaign funds for a slew of personal purposes, including paying down his mortgage and covering golf tournament fees."

Tell that to Vince Foster's Family and friends, Mike.

Now I don't know if Kavanaugh got it but at one time he wanted a hair sample from
Vince Foster's daughter for some kind of DNA analysis in order to push the long
since debunked right wing meme that HRC had Vince Foster murdered to cover up
Bill Clinton's crimes.

That can be added to the list. He knew at that point, I understand, that Vince Foster had committed suicide but wanted to continue the investigation for political purposes, regardless of the anguish he caused to the family.

Because when Kavanaugh reopened the Vince Foster case it had already
been "cleared" by the Secret Service, the D.C. Park Police, and I think the
FBI but the whole Bill Clinton had Foster murdered to cover up his cocaine
operation which was being pushed the right was given new life by Brett K..

He’s applying for a lifetime job paid 50% by women. Wipe the smirk off your face and consent to a full hearing with FBI interviews of witnesses.

Plenty of RW appointees behind you. Maybe one of them is not a rapist.

Because we know that "respectful and reasonable" to him would mean that we were letting the Repubs control the situation.

GOOD for the Democrats fighting like crazy to DO something, even though we don't have the power to do much.

The "DISGRACE" was done by McTurtle in not honoring a President's right to nominate a candidate for the Supreme Court and allowing that candidate a hearing.
Just for your memory - Merrick Garland.
