| Amy Klobuchar has read 148,000 documents on Judge Kavanaugh! |
Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Minnesota Democrat, went on one of the Sunday shows to shred the good name of Mr. Trump’s latest nominee to the Supreme Court, Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh. (I will not say the name of the program because, honestly, I am embarrassed to have wasted precious moments of the Sabbath on such sleepy-eyed nonsense.) Anyway, she claims to have read 148,000 documents that reveal Judge Kavanaugh to be so heinous as to be unfit for the high court. (link)It's been 55 days since Judge Kavanaugh was nominated. Let's say she put in ten hour days, seven days a week, and did nothing other than read up on Judge Kavanaugh. Using a little remedial math skills (and a calculator) you can calculate that she would have read approximately 270 documents an hour, or about 4.5 documents per minute.
Forget being faster than a locomotive, or being able to jump tall buildings in a single bound. My Senator can read important legal issues at a rate of 13 seconds per document.

you should be taking your own advice, captain time line.
I like presidents who don't view prisoners of war and the disabled as less than heroes.
live stream the kavanaugh hearing on c-span if you can. it's a laugh riot with democrats kicking it off by acting like complete obstructionist assholes.
Sen. Kamala Harris of California began a round of Democratic objections as Judiciary Committee Chairman Sen. Chuck Grassley tried to open the hearings Tuesday morning. Harris said that Democrats received approximately 40,000 documents that they have not had time to review. Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut also objected, as did Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii. Sen. Corey Booker of New Jersey says, "We are rushing through this process in a way that is unnecessary."

you know alky, i've been meaning to ask you about that...
what made mccain a hero? he wasn't the only guest at the hanoi hilton. yet i see him held up and exalted as the second coming of audie murphy when his real claim to fame was not nearly as positive.
he crashed planes like it was his job, and he's the only military aviator i know of who bombed his own ship - the forrestal.
so tell us again why the miserable old prick was such a fucking hero.
Harris said that Democrats received approximately 40,000 documents that they have not had time to review.
so, ol' kamel-toe needs time to review 40K more docs before she can cast a no vote?
sounds logical and compelling.
I hope that the Democrats will find a way to delay the confirmation until after the November elections.
McConnell refused to even hold hearings in regards to the nomination by President Obama.
Paybacks are a bitch.
hey alky, i like your style. to repeat every single copy/paste - the second time in bold - reinforces our notion that the opinions of others is required for you to post.
good job. but the links. plagiarism without attribution is not cool.
Paybacks are a bitch.
indeed they are.
how are you enjoying that nuclear option payback right about now, rog?

well rog, they might have had a shot had they not pissed away their credibility by announcing their 'NAY' vote before the hearing even began.
brilliant.
REPUBLICANS: We want you to vote for this SCOTUS nominee without having the benefit of the pertinent information.
NATION: Oh? You mean like you wanted us to vote for Trump without the benefit of the pertinent information(his tax returns)? Look where THAT got us -- the biggest clown-liar-criminal-bigot-racist-white supremacist the White House has ever contained.
Hundreds of thousands of documents related to kavanaugh have been released. More than the last five scouts nominees combined.
Dems announced their nay vote before we even knew who the nominee was.
Anyway, she claims that she and her staff to have read 148,000 documents.
Would you get a credible source of information before you make a total fool of yourself again.
You just read the headlines fool.
DEMOCRATS: Thousands of documents were dumped last night. Not enough time yet to consider them. Why the rush?
the look on kavanaugh's face as he's watching these democrats throw their tantrum is priceless.
he's showing remarkable restraint. anyone else would be on the floor in tears of laughter.

here's why, pederast -
the democrats rush to announce their "NAY" votes on the day of kavanaugh's nomination.
Never got to look at Trump's returns, did we?

Nope! says the nation.

It’s Time for the Press to Fight Back
Chuck Todd: “Instead of attacking rivals, or assailing critics—going negative,in the parlance of political campaigns—reporters need to showcase and defend our reporting. Every day, we need to do our job, check our facts, strive to be transparent, and say what we’re seeing. That’s what I’ve tried to do here. I’ve seen a nearly 50-year campaign to delegitimize the press, and I’m saying so. For years, I didn’t say a word about this publicly, and at times I even caught myself drawing false equivalencies because I was afraid of being labeled as biased. I know that stating the obvious will draw attacks, but I’ve also learned that the louder critics bark, the more they care about what’s being reported.
“I’m not advocating for a more activist press in the political sense, but for a more aggressive one. That means having a lower tolerance for talking points, and a greater willingness to speak plain truths. It means not allowing ourselves to be spun, and not giving guests or sources a platform to spin our readers and viewers, even if that angers them. Access isn’t journalism’s holy grail—facts are.”
ooooohhhh...
0linsky's man-gina would like us to believe he's some sort of tough guy.

Trump Irritated He Wasn’t Interviewed by Woodward
(LIAR! He had a chance, he didn't take it.)
President Trump “has become increasingly exasperated in recent weeks that he wasn’t interviewed by Bob Woodward ahead of the publication of his upcoming book,” CNN reports.
“Trump’s irritation reflects a heightened sense of unease in the West Wing about next week’s release of the veteran reporter’s book
Fear: Trump in the White House,
which details life in the Trump administration.
“Woodward made several attempts to interview Trump, CNN is told, and there were serious discussions between high-ranking officials about whether the President should sit down with him. But the interview never panned out, and in recent weeks, Trump has complained to confidants that he didn’t have the chance to speak with Woodward before the book went to print.”

Simple fact: He was too big a coward to sit down with an intelligent interviewer. So now he lies about it.

Toobin Says Trump’s Tweet May Be Impeachable Offense
CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said that President Trump’s weekend attacks against Attorney General Jeff Sessions over bring charges against two Republican lawmakers may be grounds for impeachment.
Said Toobin:
“This tweet alone may be an impeachable offense. This is such a disgrace. This is so contrary to the traditions of the Department of Justice.”

Trump Averages Eight ‘False Claims’ a Day
Washington Post: “In the 592 days since he took the oath of office, President Trump has made 4,713 false or misleading claims, according to The Fact Checker’s database that analyzes, categorizes and tracks every suspect statement uttered by the president.
“That’s an average of about eight claims a day.
”When we first started this project for the president’s first 100 days, he averaged 4.9 claims a day. But the average number of claims per day keeps climbing as the president nears the 600-day mark of his presidency.”

Republicans Want to Get Out of Town Quickly
Playbook: “Republicans don’t want to be in Washington this month — especially House Republicans. All they need to do is fund the government, and prevent PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP from making this showdown about immigration policy — because the GOP leadership believes the specter of a shutdown and a prolonged discussion about migration policy ARE LOSERS for the folks trying to hold onto the House. Get government funded, do no harm and get out of town — that’s the GOP’s mantra for the month.”

Democrats Open WIDE Lead In Generic Ballot
A new ABC News-Washington Post poll finds Democratic House candidates now lead their Republican opponents nationally by 52% to 38% among registered voters — a lead that holds up across a range of likely voter models.
The Democrats’ advantage reflects President Trump’s broad unpopularity: 36% of Americans approve of his job performance, the lowest approval rating for a president heading into his first midterms in polling dating to 1954.
A new USA Today/Suffolk poll finds Democrats leading 50% to 39%.

seems to indicate a shaken confidence on the part of the democrats.

Lol @ Alky Hero.
Ywo true mental lightwieghts.

Bob Woodward is reporting on a total breakdown.
John Dowd was convinced that President Trump would commit perjury if he talked to special counsel Robert S. Mueller III. So, on Jan. 27, the president’s then-personal attorney staged a practice session to try to make his point.
In the White House residence, Dowd peppered Trump with questions about the Russia investigation, provoking stumbles, contradictions and lies until the president eventually lost his cool.
“This thing’s a goddamn hoax,” Trump erupted at the start of a 30-minute rant that finished with him saying, “I don’t really want to testify.”
The dramatic and previously untold scene is recounted in “Fear,” a forthcoming book by Bob Woodward that paints a harrowing portrait of the Trump presidency, based on in-depth interviews with administration officials and other principals.
Woodward writes that his book is drawn from hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand participants and witnesses that were conducted on “deep background,” meaning the information could be used but he would not reveal who provided it. His account is also drawn from meeting notes, personal diaries and government documents.
Woodward depicts Trump’s anger and paranoia about the Russia inquiry as unrelenting, at times paralyzing the West Wing for entire days. Learning of the appointment of Mueller in May 2017, Trump groused, “Everybody’s trying to get me”— part of a venting period that shellshocked aides compared to Richard Nixon’s final days as president.
The 448-page book was obtained by The Washington Post. Woodward, an associate editor at The Post, sought an interview with Trump through several intermediaries to no avail. The president called Woodward in early August, after the manuscript had been completed, to say he wanted to participate. The president complained that it would be a “bad book,” according to an audio recording of the conversation. Woodward replied that his work would be “tough,” but factual and based on his reporting.
A central theme of the book is the stealthy machinations used by those in Trump’s inner sanctum to try to control his impulses and prevent disasters, both for the president personally and for the nation he was elected to lead.
Woodward describes “an administrative coup d’etat” and a “nervous breakdown” of the executive branch, with senior aides conspiring to pluck official papers from the president’s desk so he couldn’t see or sign them.
Again and again, Woodward recounts at length how Trump’s national security team was shaken by his lack of curiosity and knowledge about world affairs and his contempt for the mainstream perspectives of military and intelligence leaders.
At a National Security Council meeting on Jan. 19, Trump disregarded the significance of the massive U.S. military presence on the Korean Peninsula, including a special intelligence operation that allows the United States to detect a North Korean missile launch in seven seconds vs. 15 minutes from Alaska, according to Woodward. Trump questioned why the government was spending resources in the region at all.
“We’re doing this in order to prevent World War III,” Defense Secretary Jim Mattis told him.
After Trump left the meeting, Woodward recounts, “Mattis was particularly exasperated and alarmed, telling close associates that the president acted like — and had the understanding of — ‘a fifth- or sixth-grader..”

The pedophile needs to go away.
In Woodward’s telling, many top advisers were repeatedly unnerved by Trump’s actions and expressed dim views of him. “Secretaries of defense don’t always get to choose the president they work for,” Mattis told friends at one point, prompting laughter as he explained Trump’s tendency to go off on tangents about subjects such as immigration and the news media.
Inside the White House, Woodward portrays an unsteady executive detached from the conventions of governing and prone to snapping at high-ranking staff members, whom he unsettled and belittled on a daily basis.
White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly frequently lost his temper and told colleagues that he thought the president was “unhinged,” Woodward writes. In one small group meeting, Kelly said of Trump: “He’s an idiot. It’s pointless to try to convince him of anything. He’s gone off the rails. We’re in Crazytown. I don’t even know why any of us are here. This is the worst job I’ve ever had.
Roger the spamming creeper.
so what's your point, alky? i'm assuming you at least have one.
are we supposed to be moved by a WaPo 'democracy drowns in bullshit' story?
i can never tell. all you ever do is copy/paste something i've already read.
Trump was sharply criticized for initially saying that “both sides” were to blame. At the urging of advisers, he then condemned white supremacists and neo-Nazis, but almost immediately told aides, “That was the biggest fucking mistake I’ve made” and the “worst speech I’ve ever given,” according to Woodward’s account.
When Cohn met with Trump to deliver his resignation letter after Charlottesville, the president told him, “This is treason,” and persuaded his economic adviser to stay on. Kelly then confided to Cohn that he shared Cohn’s horror at Trump’s handling of the tragedy — and shared Cohn’s fury with Trump.
“I would have taken that resignation letter and shoved it up his ass six different times,” Kelly told Cohn, according to Woodward. Kelly himself has threatened to quit several times, but has not done so.
Woodward illustrates how the dread in Trump’s orbit became all-encompassing over the course of Trump’s first year in office, leaving some staff members and Cabinet members confounded by the president’s lack of understanding about how government functions and his inability and unwillingness to learn.
At one point, Porter, who departed in February amid domestic abuse allegations, is quoted as saying, “This was no longer a presidency. This is no longer a White House. This is a man being who he is.”
Such moments of panic are a routine feature, but not the thrust of Woodward’s book, which mostly focuses on substantive decisions and internal disagreements, including tensions with North Korea as well as the future of U.S. policy in Afghanistan.
Woodward recounts repeated episodes of anxiety inside the government over Trump’s handling of the North Korean nuclear threat. One month into his presidency, Trump asked Dunford for a plan for a preemptive military strike on North Korea, which rattled the combat veteran.
In the fall of 2017, as Trump intensified a war of words with Kim Jong Un, nicknaming North Korea’s dictator “Little Rocket Man” in a speech at the United Nations, aides worried the president might be provoking Kim. But, Woodward writes, Trump told Porter that he saw the situation as a contest of wills: “This is all about leader versus leader. Man versus man. Me versus Kim.”
The book also details Trump’s impatience with the war in Afghanistan, which had become America’s longest conflict. At a July 2017 National Security Council meeting, Trump dressed down his generals and other advisers for 25 minutes, complaining that the United States was losing, according to Woodward.
“The soldiers on the ground could run things much better than you,” Trump told them. “They could do a much better job. I don’t know what the hell we’re doing.” He went on to ask, “How many more deaths? How many more lost limbs? How much longer are we going to be there?”
The president’s family members, while sometimes touted as his key advisers by other Trump chroniclers, are minor players in Woodward’s account, popping up occasionally in the West Wing and vexing adversaries.
It's the final nail in the coffin of CHT and the President.
