Senator Bill Cassidy, Senator John N. Kennedy and Kavanaugh

So, I wrote both my senators, Bill Cassidy and John N. Kennedy regarding Kavanaugh and the alleged assault. I immediately got a reply from Bill Cassidy, the next day, on how wonderful Kavanaugh was, all his experience, etc. The canned reply I always get, as someone said, probably from one of his staff. So, I then wrote Bill Cassidy again, and asked why there was no rush to get Merrick Garland voted in, have hearings, nothing whatsoever but yet there is this rush to get Kavanaugh in. I kinda thought I'd get another "immediate" reply. Well, as of today there is no reply. There has been no reply from John N. Kennedy as well from the first email I sent.

This is the major problem with Republican Senators. They only care about one thing, power and their job. They do believe they are "entitled". In fact, someone wrote an editorial in our newspaper, The Advocate, about trying to contact John Kennedy and that it is virtually impossible to contact him, set up a meeting with him, state an opinion to him, whatever. John Kennedy has switched from being a Democrat to a Republican umpteen times. His party affiliation depends on "who is in charge at the time". He has his "cutesy" southern little sayings, but he is just another one in the bunch of those just trying to keep a job. His plans are to run against our Democratic Governor in a couple of years.

I have always prided myself in voting on issues and not party. I have voted for republicans as well as democrats. But, now, after all of this nonsense, I do believe I will stick to party.

Amen, Rachael! I love her. FBI needs to look into the alleged sex attack!!!

Hillary Clinton. Rachel Maddow show.

Since I got a canned response from Bill Cassidy regarding Kavanaugh, I asked him this question:

"Why is there such a rush by Mitch McConnell to get Kavanaugh voted in for Supreme Court when there was no rush to get Merrick Garland in?"

I cannot wait to hear the canned reply.....

I guess my next question will be "do you read these questions or am I getting responses from your staff?

I wrote my Senator, Bill Cassidy, from Louisiana regarding Kavanaugh. Here is his response to me.

I did mention to him the issue about his possible attempted rape in high school. The response is below:

"Thank you for writing me about President Trump's nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh as a nominee for the position of Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. I appreciate hearing from you on this important issue.

Judge Kavanaugh is a well-respected, independent-minded adjudicator with a proven track record as a judge who will apply the law as written and enforce the text, structure, and original understanding of the Constitution. He is a graduate of Yale Law School and was a law clerk to Justice Anthony Kennedy, the man whose seat he has been nominated to fill. Judge Kavanaugh has 12 years of experience on the D.C. Appellate Court bench where the Supreme Court has endorsed his opinions more than a dozen times. His opinions have been cited by more than 210 judges across the country. The American people will be well served by an eminently qualified, fair-minded jurist. I’m looking forward to the Senate confirmation process this fall and I anticipate that Judge Kavanaugh will be confirmed .

It is the President’s Constitutional responsibility to nominate judges to the Supreme Court and it is my responsibility as a senator to give my advice to the President about his nominees and consent to the choice he has made to serve on the Supreme Court.

I will continue to represent the views of my state and do so through hearing from constituents like you. Please continue to reach out, either by phone or by email, when you have another question or concern. You can reach my office in Washington DC at 202-224-5824 or submit an email at http://www.cassidy.senate.gov/contact .

Sincerely,
Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D."

How have Hatch and Grassley been on the Judiciary committee since 1991???

Hurricane Florence is Trump's Katrina

Memories of the New Orleans flooding coming back. Pray for the people there.

Remember how teachers would say, "this will stay on your permanent record"?

Apparently it's true!!!

Just wrote my senators, Bill Cassidy and John Kennedy, regarding Kavanaugh.

Of course, I will get the canned response back. But, I tried. Hopefully Kavanaugh will either withdraw or the Republican elder senators will come to their senses.

Did Orin Hatch really say this?
