What a champion for women. Such strength.
Now sheâs trying to cover her ass in both directions - pathetic, embarrassing. Her suggestion makes no sense at all. Not even a fig leaf on this inane, disrespectful kangaroo court Republicans have planned for Dr. Ford on Monday. Ford should decline to participate until thereâs a reasonable, respectful plan, Susan Collins should go fuck herself.
She has joined the ranks of the Feckless C**&*&
This is not a trouble, concerned, or moderate advocate for women. This is a cynical hypocrite. But, as we know sheâs a Republican, I might as well not bother pointing it out.
Collins is a troll. Why doesnât she want Fordâs lawyers to get Mark Judge and Patrick Smyth (Kavanaughâs alleged accomplices) to testify under oath?
Why do they get to set terms to the Senate?
Should we ask for that help before or after we ask for our healthcare? And should a woman ask for help from the FBI before or after Brett Kavanaugh helps to take away their right of choice?
Why, with such stalwart defense of the rights of women by super-feminist Senator Susan Collins, I predict that it is only a matter of time before Ricky lets Lucy sing at the club!
Oh, and Senator Collins: donât be concerned with the men standing behind you. If you need to let one rip in the elevator, Mitch McConnell will help you cover up your little lack of good manners. Like he always does.
âelicit the most information, and provide continuityâ
Hahahaha
Such a surprise that Susan Collins is still Susan Collins.
So crestfallen.
'Collins has suggested that attorneys for Blasey Ford and Kavanaugh should be allowed to question each otherâs client, which she told WVOM âwould elicit the most information, and provide continuity.â
Collins added Wednesday that sheâd received a âquite positiveâ response from Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) regarding that proposal.
âThey certainly have not rejected my suggested,â Collins said, referring to the Judiciary Committee.â
Weird I thought she was a founding member of the Feckless, ummm, Cowards ClubâŚ
âAfter I hire Sleazy the Clown to babysit, Iâll give the Sex Offenders Registry a check afterwards.â
âWeâ as in the GOP? âWeâ as in donald fâing trump? âWeâ will ask for help from the FBI? If needed?
Right, Suze, sure. Except you wonât decide itâs needed. But I know you have to pretend so you can get all your free, positive press about being that rarest of all unicorns, a âmoderateâ republican.
And what will happen is this. Immediately after the Monday hearing, the committee will vote on whether it needs additional investigation by the FBI, and by 11-10, it will decide it doesnât. And right after that, it will vote 11-10 to send the nomination to the full Senate. Susan Collins is either the most trusting member of Congress, or the stupidest.
Not quite right. She did that a long time ago. Nothing new here. Just more of the same.
Exactly.
I have this feeling that Grassley and the rest of the GOP are terrified of Ford testifying in an open session. I really hope she decides to testify publicly, just to see them eat shit, especially that insidious little drama queen Lindsey Graham, who inferred that Ms. Fordâs allegations were made just to delay a SC vote until after the midterms. Bite me, Lindsey.
Susan Collins is a useless craven hypocrite. Dems donât like her, Republicans donât like her either. No one respects her. As Martin Longman points out, she is the âLamb of the Senateâ. I call her the âTroll of the Senateâ.

"With the death of John McCain, the senior senator from Maine, Susan Collins, now ranks thirteenth in seniority in Congressâs more prestigious and deliberative body. Among Republicans, only Orrin Hatch, Chuck Grassley, Mitch McConnell, Richard Shelby, James Inhofe and Pat Roberts are more senior. Unsurprisingly, those senators hold positions of great responsibility. Mitch McConnell is the Senate Majority Leader. Richard Shelby controls the spending as chair of the Appropriations Committee. Orrin Hatch controls tax law as chair on Finance, while Chuck Grassley oversees the courts as the head of the Judiciary Committee. Senator Pat Roberts of Kansas sets agricultural policy and James Inhofe is now the senior Republican on the Armed Services Committee.
Strangely, however, Susan Collins is only allowed to chair the Special Committee on Aging, a toothless body that rarely meets and has no authority to draft legislation. Her only real power comes from her seat on Appropriations where she is allowed to chair the spending of the subcommittee of least interest to conservatives: Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies."
Collins added Wednesday that sheâd received a âquite positiveâ response from Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) regarding that proposal.
Let me guess:
Oh, investigate Ford if she testifies? HahaâŚgreat idea!
Just more Collinsâ dissembling. Rest assured that she will cave in to her GOP bosses, just as she always does.
She just marinates in the stupid juice, doesnât she?
If there is anything Spineless Susie knows itâs âthe normal order of things.â
