and bring in Republican Senators to coddle Kavanaugh, because he was refusing to answer her questions, attacking her for questioning him, and outraged that she was posing a threat to his sense of entitlement to the Supreme Court.
They actually called for a break to coach him, and remove Rachel Mitchell.
And of course they want him on the Supreme Court because he's not only now the most exploitable man in Washington with a closet full of skeletons along with exploitable gambling and alcohol problems, but a self proclaimed partisan hack who is willing to lie.

(31,261 posts)Did Rachel Mitchell start questioning him and get removed? I was under the impression that she was removed before Kavanaugh came in. But wow, if they removed her because she was trying to get at the truth, Murkowski, Collins and Flake should vote no if they are honorable.

They pulled their own hand picked prosecutor after only a few minutes of questioning, to bring in Republican Senators to spoon feed Kavanaugh.

(5,459 posts)She was pulled right after she started to inquire about the July 1st entry into his so-called "calendar".
That entry highlighted the names of the suspects at a party , "Timmys house".
At the time, I thought to myself, why would Mitchell be asking about this?? That is not the avenue you want to go down if you're trying to exonerate your client. It would have caused him to basically verify the time and place of the attack.
Shortly thereafter, the hearing was stopped and Mitchell was canned on the spot. (Coverup...AGAIN)
Next Graham comes out and puts on the most imbecilic, ridiculous display of hypocritical indignation ever seen in politics.
(Where was your outrage, Lindsay, for the abuse of a fine man, Merrick Garland???? Huh??
Yeah, crickets........

You know if K was confirmed the same men would have shoved her aside to try to claim credit
