Who to believe?

As most folks in the US are probably well aware, there is a confirmation battle going on in Congress, for the spot vacated by Anthony Kennedy-- on the Supreme Court.

Recently, "Christine Ford" accused Judge Bret Kavanaugh of sexual assault.  These kinds of accusations always seem to follow candidates -- IF they're Republican.  They don't seem to matter at all if you're a Democrat. 

I've tried to piece this together.  And I've reached the conclusion that Kavanaugh is telling the truth. 

WHY??

First:  The Democrats were bitching about Gorsuch, but didn't really have time to do anything.  They did try to stop the confirmation, but since the GOP has the advantage in the Senate, even if one vote of theirs flips, the VP steps in and votes.  A brilliant idea from our Founders, if you ask me.
Then, Kennedy resigned.

Second:  The Democrats were coming out against the nominee even before he was announced.  That reeks of politics, jealousy.  These sore losers are all part of the #nevetrump movement which is really out of control.  Signs were made for those who'd protest, even BEFORE announced!  That strikes me as ODD.

Third:  Despite the Constitution and Rule of Law, everybody started ganging up on the Judge!

Fourth:  The hearings were over, when "All of a sudden" somebody accused him of sexual assault. 
Very convenient that it comes just a day or two before the vote.  And now, the Democrats are not only calling for him to withdraw from the nomination, but to resign.  Interesting.  Not a single shred of proof.  I thought we were supposed to be presumed innocent until proven guilty.  Not for the DFL.  It's Presumed Guilty unless you're a democrat!

Fifth:  Ford had 4 people named as witnesses.  In an interesting development, not a single one has corroborated her story.  One did, but then recanted.  Nice.  No witnesses. 

Sixth:  Feinstein held the so-called "Letter of accusation" until just a couple of days before the vote.  WHY?  There can be only one reason:  To disrupt the courts, to fuel the opposition, to delay the vote until after the midterms.  What happens if the Democrats win?  It's not going to be a very big margin, if you ask me-  If they win at all.  If they lose, it's just going to be the same circus all over again.

7th:  Kavanaugh had to undergo several background checks before he was nominated as Judge.  A few of the Democrats (at that time) supported him.  2 or three, I think it was.  The FBI background checks came back clear.

8th:  When Kavanaugh was nominated to be judge, which was under Bush, he had to undergo hearings.  And guess what.  Ford was NOWHERE to be seen.  Why didn't she accuse him THEN?
Obviously, it's because Trump wasn't President. 

9th:  Now, a Creepy Porn-star lawyer who is delinquent in his taxes and under order to pay, claims there is "ANOTHER" person ...  Yeah, right.

10th:  The GOP offered to hear the testimony of Ford.  She puts it some very strange stipulations... Judge Kavanaugh cannot be in the room, for one thing.  No lawyers may question.  Blah, Blah, Blah.

11th:  She then demands a delay because "She's afraid to fly."  Next thing I hear, she's in Delaware, just a few hours after this statement.

WILL SHE EVEN SHOW UP?  I don't know.  But I'm guessing she won't.  She's scared, because she'll be under oath.  If caught in a lie, lying to Congress is perjury.  What's the penalty? One to Five years.  Plus fines.  Not showing up is Contempt, and that's a criminal offense, as well.  Up to 1 year in prison, and up to 1000 for a fine.  Nice.

Of course, the Democrats won't vote to hold her in contempt, if such does happen.  And they'll claim it's the "Anti-woman" agenda of the GOP.  What a crock.

After looking at all this, I have only one conclusion:  Ford's Lying and the Democrats are trying to delay the game.  If more than one Republican votes no, Game over. 

Time to end the bullshit.  Call the vote.  And when confirmation occurs, Have him in place by the start of the session.

FORD is a LIAR.  DEMOCRATS Delaying the game.  Nobody seems to have the balls enough to stand up and call for the vote. 

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
AS I SEE IT..... 

Open letter to Congress -- Constitutional Amendment Proposal

To All members of the House and Senate of the United States of America,

I freely admit that I am not a Judge, Lawyer, nor Constitutional Scholar. I am merely a student of life, an American Citizen, and a man who sees a flaw within the Constitution: A flaw that should be fixed as soon as possible.

As you know, there are qualifications required for being a member of the House, the Senate, and the President. For the House, you must be at least 25, a citizen, and a seven year resident of the US, and a resident of the State you represent. To be in the Senate, you must be a citizen at least 30, a nine year resident of the Country, and a resident of the state you are to serve. To be President, you must be at least 35, a natural-born citizen (Not Naturalized citizen) and a resident of the US for at least 14 years.

If we have such stringent qualifications for Our Representatives, Senators, and President, why do we not have them for the Justices of the court?

I should like to propose the following amendment to the Constitution regarding Justices, and a clarification to the term "Natural Born".

Proposed Amendment the XXVIII

The Supreme Court shall consist of 9 individuals.

No person shall be appointed to the Supreme Court who is not a natural-born citizen, who has not attained the age of 40 years and has not been a resident of the United States for 14 consecutive years. An appointee shall have not less than Five (5) years of Judicial Experience, or been an attorney for a minimum of ten (10) years.

The term of a Supreme Court Justice shall be 12 years, to a maximum of 24 years.

Section II

The term "Natural-born" shall be defined as follows:

1) Born in any State of the United States.

2) Born of any Two U.S. Citizens, anywhere,

3) Born of any ONE U.S. Citizen in the States or Territories, but is the product of a U.S. Citizen and a non-citizen.

Offspring of citizens who give up citizenship before the child reaches the age of 14, shall not be considered citizens.

Section III -- This amendment shall be null and void if not passed by the requisite number of states within 7 years.

---------------

There you have my proposed amendment. If you agree, copy and send to your congressman and/or Senators. We clear up all "Vague" wordings, and we protect ourselves from the possibility of a bunch of "foreign-born" justices who care nothing for the Constitution of the United States.
