Grassley is the perfect person for the role of the spider.

"Will you walk into my palor? said the Spider to the Fly,
Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever did you spy;
The way into my parlor is up a winding stair,
And I've a many curious things to show when you are there.


"Oh yes, yes, said the Fly, to ask me is in vain
For who goes up your winding stair can never come down again.


"...And if you like to rest awhile, I'll snugly tuck you in!


Oh yes, yes said the little Fly, for I've often heard it said,
They never wake agin, who sleep upon your bed!.....



This innocent Fly will be devoured by Grassly and his vermin as he crouches high on his bench of rightousness. With a solemn sneer he will pass judgement and condemnation. It is more than just a sham. Its a chamber of immorality. The Republicans have transformed government is to caldron of evilness that reeks of hatred and exclusion. They chose this path long ago and this is but another chapter in the story of the Spider and the Fly that is strewn with their hapless victims of their deceit.

They will succeed for their plot has been in the making for tens of years and they will celibrate with unabated glee like imps dancing around a corpse of another innocent Fly brought to justice. No better depiction of their victims is the Fly who they regard as refuse justifiably destroyed for the sake of the nation's innocents in a justifiable crusade. They all shake their heads in mock sorrow. It isn't a crucifixion, but an act of salvation to protect the just and honorable against contamination.

They know exactly what Kavanaugh is. They just really don’t care. Do you?

This group has to be a slap in the face to anyone who desires to get to the truth or else just another sad disgusting joke which we have seen before ala Anita Hill.

They utter one common sense statement every 2 months, then toe the Trumpian Goosestep

Somebody's got something that keeps them from breaking out

He's such an idiotic tool. He's like a milder Lindsey (If that's possible), he'll tweet out a modicum of criticism of tiny hands, but then of course votes for everything that putrid party proposes.

link to all the members of the Jud. Comm. It has all of their contact info. I called Hatch last night and I have called them all before. Call the Dems to say "thanks" and give them support. The staffers usually ask for contact info if you compliment them but if you criticize them they don't.

I guess not much has changed. Maybe its time for another Women's march right up to the steps of CONGRESS, thousands and thousands of women, marching up and into Congress....They can't arrest everyone...

Needs to be voted out of Congress , especially the Senate now, and replaced with democrats , and many more women and minorities need to be elected because these guys will never represent women or minorities , or anyone who can't bribe them like the super wealthy are doing now. People like Cruz and Cornyn really need to go. Trump and the republican party hate women , and repeatedly accept people who abuse women into their party , along with child abusers and worse. Women need to run from these people and their party or they'll regret it. They always frame women as liars and bad people when accused , when its usually the opposite .
