Senators Key To Kavanaugh's Confirmation Keeping An 'Open Mind' Back to article

[gregangelo]

Grandma’s going to fold like a fucking doily.

“The avalanche has started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote.”

Oh FFS – Kabuki Collins was never going to vote no… neither would Mecurial Merkowski. The question will be whether or not the Democrats will hold together, gum up the works and otherwise get Kavanaugh to own his past rulings and paper trail.

[outis]

Keeping “an open mind” on a candidate who clearly should be rejected (on several very reasonable grounds) is just code for “I am biding my time until I can figure out how to get away with saying yes.”

[old_curmudgeon]

“It seems to me,
I’ve heard that song before,
It’s from an old familiar score…”

[bodie1]

Please. Just. Stop. We know what you’re going to do.

[think_logically]

Wow, that was quick. Like a house of cards in a tornado.

[demosthenes59]

Shorter Collins and Murkowski: “so long as Kavanaugh lies about his actual anti-abortion views, and his opinion that Trump is above the law, we will confirm him. After all, he’s a Republican.”

[prometheus59650]

They will keep an open mind and then vote yes no matter what he says or does.

No one here thought they were going to save you, did they?

[geofu54]

It’s goddamn fuckin’ tiring and torturous we’ll have to see/hear their VeryVerySeriousAndDeeplyConcerned faces/comments till the day they hand a hammer to Turtle and he puts another nail in the judiciary.

[bankerpup]

Play it again, Senators.

Actually, I’d prefer you didn’t, but it’s the only tune you know.

TPM, The president wouldn’t have nominated The Kav if Mitch couldn’t deliver the votes. Please, don’t fall for the faux drama.

[derrick]

Put on your most sincere face, Senator.
Your “open mind” is nothing but an air-head.

Be honest.
You’re trolling for an excuse to sniff Trump’s bicycle seat.

It’s true. These women have no feck!

[zeddycat]

So they would be … feckless? Now where did I hear that word recently? Samantha Bee?

“I’m important!!! I’m key to this decision!!! Look at me, look at me, I’m key, I’m keeeeeeey!!! Gosh, I just don’t know what I’m gonna do yet!!! Ask me again tomorrow…and the next day…and the next day…and the next day…”

Bullshit. Kavanagh has already been as good as confirmed. Neither Collins nor Mukowski has the stones to hold him up and Manchin is a fucking guaranteed vote for anything Trump wants.

[keninmn]

In other words, they’ll vote like good little Nazis…

[longtimeobserver]

They’ll fold like cheap lawn chairs. Pathetic.

[riverstreet]

Mitch McConnell will listen thoughtfully and attentively to the comments and concerns of Senators Collins and Murkowski until he decides it’s time for them to bring him a sandwich.

Commence the open-mindedness:
