Deborah Ramirez - Really?

There is no way Brett Kavanaugh should withdraw his nomination.

The Democrats cannot be allowed to derail the will of the American people.

I've had enough of the Republicans appeasing the deranged Democrats.

It's no surprise that the Democrats have another woman accusing Kavanaugh of inappropriate sexual behavior.

From National Review:

The cynics — or, perhaps more precisely, the realists — believed that the Democrats were playing for time in the hopes of finding another accusation against Brett Kavanaugh. The cynics were right.

The New Yorker stooped to publish a shoddy story alleging that Kavanaugh exposed himself to a woman while he was at Yale. The alleged incident occurred at a drunken party when both were in their freshman year. What’s extraordinary is that the woman making the charge, a fellow Yale student named Deborah Ramirez, admits that she hesitated to come forward because there were such large gaps in her memory.

As the magazine puts it: “In her initial conversations with The New Yorker, she was reluctant to characterize Kavanaugh’s role in the alleged incident with certainty.” She only decided to talk, it says, “after six days of carefully assessing her memories and consulting with her attorney.”

Even after her new-found certainty — which happens to accord with her political interest as a Democrat — her story still contains gaps. She was drunk and didn’t directly see that it was Kavanaugh who put his penis in front of her face when she was on the floor. She says she heard someone yell out that it was Kavanaugh who had done this, and she saw him make a motion afterward that was consistent with pulling up his pants. So even she is making the charge as a matter of hearsay and interpretation.

The only other corroboration is an unidentified classmate who tells the magazine that he heard of the incident afterwards — in other words, more hearsay.

...The New Yorker story comes on the heels of another blow to the credibility of Christine Blasey Ford’s account. She has identified four other people who were present at the high-school party where Kavanaugh allegedly assaulted her as a teenager. All have denied it, now including Leland Keyser, who is a long-time friend of Ford’s and a Democrat. She told the Judiciary Committee through her lawyer, “Simply put, Ms. Keyser does not know Mr. Kavanaugh and she has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford.”

Clearly, the opposition to Kavanaugh hopes that the two stories — with perhaps more on the way — will support each other despite their inherent weakness. If Democrats take down Kavanaugh on the basis of these charges, they will have achieved the miraculous by stopping a Supreme Court nominee with two unproven and probably unprovable charges, in a smashing victory for garbage-pail politics.

...If Republicans surrender on the basis of what we know now, they will face the fury of their own voters — and rightly so.

Deborah Ramirez says she has large gaps in her memory!!!

This is crazy!

The Republicans need to grow a spine and listen to their constituents. They need to stand up for the rule of law and justice.

I am beyond disgusted with the way the Democrats and their media partners are conducting themselves.

In addition, I've lost my patience with the Republicans.

The reason I voted for Trump was the future of the Supreme Court. Republicans cannot permit the Democrats to take control of the process.

I can't stand what the Republicans are allowing Democrats and Never Trumpers to do to Brett Kavanaugh. It's outrageous.

Republicans need to fight back.

If they lose this battle, they're going to lose the war.
