Media and many Dems keep saying, "I dont understand why republicans..." Here's why:

Media and many Dems keep saying, "I dont understand why republicans...

1. Don't want an investigation
2. Are rushing this through without vetting - why can't they give it the time it deserves
3. Don't want others to testify (other accussers and corraborating witnesses)
4. Won't questions Mark Judge

They keep asking, "What are Rs afraid of?"

The answer is obvious. They desperately need Kavanaugh on SCOTUS to protect themselves since so many of them are complicit in so much corruption, not the lease of whicfh is the attack on the election, Russian colllusion, etc. And potential blackmail fodder from Russian hacking. They didnt just hack Dems.

And now there is the info about the upcoming SCOTUS case Gamble v. United States. "Gamble v. United States. isn’t related to the Russia investigation. But the outcome—which one senior Republican senator has tried to influence—could still have consequences for the probe."

THere are a few Dems who will go to the logical conclusion, but very few, at least publically - with some exceptions like Auntie Maxine. Most just keep asking what are they afraid of, and talking about how Rs are doing it to make their base happy so they can win the election. No, this is much deeper, much more serious than that. THis is cover up to save themselves from eventual investigation and all that comes with that.

has no interest in compromise, no interest in the law, and no integrity at all. The 8 solid years of GOP obstructionism during the Obama Presidency should have convinced every Democratic politician of that.
