When is Enough ,Enough?
If at anytime in ones life - and i mean anytime- 15-21-75-105 you in anyway take advantage of or force yourself on a girl than you have absolutely no business being a figure of the law, let alone a Supreme Court justice. Should I have to even be pointing that out? So let them do their due diligence. After the travesty that was Merrick Garland- who to the best of my knowledge did not have any real skeletons in his closet - it is the least the God damned GOP could “suffer” through.

Trump Tax Hikes are Coming.................
https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/t...194457071.html Ya knew it wouldn't be long,.........bye -bye tax cuts!!! The Trump tax hikes are coming Rick Newman 7 hours ago President Trump’s biggest political win, so far, is the tax-cut legislation he signed into law late last year. But Trump is now taking action that is essentially a tax hike on American consumers, and will offset a portion of the tax cuts he has been crowing about for nine months. And in typical renegade fashion, Trump is dismissing political orthodoxy by daring to hit voters with new taxes just weeks before a crucial election. Trump now plans to impose 10% tariffs on $200 billion worth of Chinese imports, beginning Sept. 24. The tariff will rise to 25% by the end of the year. That’s in addition to a 25% tariff on $50 billion worth of Chinese imports Trump imposed during the summer. So by Election Day in November, Trump will have placed new tariffs on $250 billion worth of stuff Americans buy every day. A tariff is a tax collected when imported goods enter the country. It raises the cost of the good by the amount of the tariff. So a 10% tariff on a $100 product would raise its cost to $110. Producers typically try to pass the added cost onto consumers, and as the cost of certain imported goods rises, the cost of similar products not subject to tariffs can also rise, since there’s less competitive pressure pushing prices down. The new tariffs will raise the cost of thousands of everyday items, including electronics, appliances, bicycles, tires, toys, clothing and footwear. Based on last year’s level of imports, the new China tariffs amount to a tax hike of $32.5 billion per year. If the latest set of tariffs rises to 25% and stays in place for 2019, the total additional tax would be $62.5 billion next year. The Trump tax cuts, by contrast, lowered tax payments by about $130 billion per year. So by this simple math, the China tariffs would offset about one-fourth of the Trump tax cuts this year, and nearly one-half next year.

You sound like a guy who refers to rape as “a cuddle with a struggle”. We don’t know if it’s true and the timing is odd but sexual assault is so common these allegations shouldn’t be disregarded. I was a bit too young to young to remember the Thomas Anita Hill thing other than the dude had a hair in his soda. That always weirded me out. Quote:

Re: When is Enough ,Enough?
.............again "she said". I don't know this women and nether does anyone else . I really have a problem with her story ,Punch you said it yourself "if"...sorry ,I need more than a "she said" type thing before I wreck someone's life from a supposed incident 30 years prior.
jamf, cute little phrase but what I said was..... "Sorry but two drunk teens at a party are equally responsible ...Or "irresponsible " might be better word for their conduct,we are not talking about forcible rape . This man as much as I don't like him and I don't...please make that clear, has been on the court for awhile work for other Presidents ....the women coming forward at this time now seems very strange." I as the Father of three girls take this subject seriously ,very seriously which why to me something just doesn't seem right here with this story...even you say .. I quote..."We don’t know if it’s true and the timing is odd but sexual assault is so common these allegations shouldn’t be disregarded. "end quote ... disregarded ........I never said that . I had the same feeling about the Duke Lacrosse team accusations.

Trump Obstructing a Federal Investigation!
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...inity_20180918 President Trump, in a clear abuse of power, has decided to intervene in a pending law enforcement investigation by ordering the selective release of materials he believes are helpful to his defense team and thinks will advance a false narrative," Schiff said in a statement. The president has the authority to declassify any secret in the government, but experts could not recall a president doing so in a manner that seemed to leave aside any concerns raised by his own intelligence advisers. "This is certainly unprecedented," said Robert Litt, the former general counsel of the ODNI during the Obama administration. "Between the compromise of sources and methods, the impact on the willingness of people to cooperate, and the potential of selective release of classified material for partisan purposes, I think intelligence officials will find it very troubling." The FBI had no immediate comment.

Trump knows that if the House goes democratic he will be impeached. The Dems know that if they don't try everything to keep a 2nd Trump appointee off the bench, the activists of their party will keep knocking off the more mainstream/long term democrats off the tickets. It is the continued polarization of our political groups. Either the two find their way back to the center, or we will see a true third party rise that balances social justice with fiscal reality. I am hoping for the 2nd option, but expecting neither

I don't think the House (if Dem controlled) will impeach Trump unless Mueller's report dictates it. It would be a dumb move on their part. Also, even if he is impeached, he still isn't going anywhere (like Clinton). You aren't going to get the 67 Senate votes needed to be removed. Kavanaugh's accuser actually came out months ago, and even longer considering she's told the story to her husband, friends and therapist. Now, you can make the claim that Feinstein is making it political, but let's leave the accuser out of this.

Re: When is Enough ,Enough?
Why is it all the racist bigots support the GOP? Is it because their policies hurt the people they most hate? I'd say yes.
https://www.politico.com/story/2018/...-issues-830726 Listen to this man's interview with a journalist from politico. My mind is just boggled how people are this stupid. Trump has given them the green light to be an open racist. https://twitter.com/MarcACaputo/stat...77846643666944
