I'm trying to figure out what the 1,000 words would be. The Founders are toasting Nancy Pelosi... but...why?


It's unlikely Amy will be the Democratic nominee, but if she is, this post will be linked in my "How Amy lost me" retrospective. She's talking to me in a mindless cliché ("A picture is worth 1,000 words"), and she's sharing a cartoon that is not devoid of words and that has to label the caricatures "Founding Fathers" because the artist apparently thinks the picture is NOT even adequate to convey who the people being caricatured are, and she thinks a completely partisan vote straining to legitimatize the behind-closed-doors hearings is a cause for giddy, alcohol-soaked celebration.

I remember when Amy Klobuchar was sternly disapproving of beery revelry...

"I think that you’ve probably had beer," said Judge Kavanaugh...

I have to say i fell a little in love with Amy that day. I thought Kavanaugh was more than a little condescending to her. If i have been within a few feet of him, it would have deserved a slap across the face for his impudence,and not in a good way.

Imagine George Washington or Tom Jefferson toasting Nancy Pelosi for impeaching a President because he was talking to a foreign leader. LOL.

Observe good faith and justice toward all nations. Cultivate peace and harmony with all. Religion and morality enjoin this conduct. And can it be that good policy does not equally enjoin it? It will be worthy of a free, enlightened, and at no distant period a great nation to give to mankind the magnanimous and too novel example of a people always guided by an exalted justice and benevolence. Who can doubt that in the course of time and things the fruits of such a plan would richly repay any temporary advantages which might be lost by a steady adherence to it? ?

AND PUTIN SMILED.

Gordon Scott म्हणाले...

Gee, Vicki. You've already been through contentious hearings, supplied more documents than all previous nominees combined, and suddenly the Dems pop up with some lunatic who claims she got screwed 30-plus years ago. Oh, and good old Amy knew at least three weeks ago about these claims but decided to be in on the plan to coldcock the nominee.

Might you be a bit cynical and weary? Might you, knowing good old Amy is the most vicious boss on Capitol Hill, get a bit testy when the hypocrite decides to look down her nose?

defense contractor audits turned up a massive scam a short while ago.
If this comes to light, could it not bode well for someone?
Further tracking the shell company we found that it is owned by another shell company, which in turn is owned by a company which owns 5 luxury car dealerships, a big four professional American Sports Franchise, a VERY liberal movie studio, all of which have been noted as being unprofitable, and this single Navy Contractor.

The family that owns this company has a current Senator and a Current Presidential Candidate in it.

The USA is unique, exceptional if you will, for many things, but one stands out in my estimation. It is the only country in the history of the world which, in crafting the structure of its government, set the principle of limitation as the overriding concern. I would have stayed with the 1777 Articles of Confederation which really limited the created fedgov. The 1787 iteration would be adequate if the words as written were obeyed in the spirit of limitation; cf. the 10th Amendment.

Limiting fedgov, or any government, is the last thing in the world that Democrats want.

So the cartoon "To Nancy" is utterly baffling to me.

No, it's not like Rashomon, which offered differing points of view, all grounded in the backgrounds and prejudices of the characters. Those viewpoints were never reconciled with "what really happened", only with one of the characters seemingly attempting to redeem his role in whatever went on.

In Kavanaugh's case, we KNOW that Vesey Ford lied. We KNOW that not a scintilla of evidence for her claims was ever produced or substantiated. We KNOW that the other claims of rape trains were lies offered by people equally as mentally unbalanced as Vesey Ford.

Yet Vicky still hates Kavanaugh. FOR WHAT?

[Vicki in Pasadena:] What a jerk he is. I lost what ever respect I had for him after that exchange


I just finished reading Justice on Trial, which is about the Kavanaugh confirmation.

It proves, as if further proof is necessary, that progressives are vile people, for whom a baseless character assassination campaign is just another broken egg on the way to their omelette.

No matter how much damage it does, not just to him and his family, but to our entire civic culture. If D-senators had even an inkling of moral sense, they would have all voted for Kavanaugh. The outcome wouldn't have changed, and they would have made the point that such a morally cretinous horror show can't be allowed to stand.

Steven म्हणाले...

Absolutely 100% of the available evidence (the Ford-named witnesses, and the version of the account previously recorded by Ford's therapist) agrees that Ford's account to Congress was false. People who believed the account anyway are idiots. And idiots in high office absolutely should be condescended to.

bagoh20 म्हणाले...

I don't know how anybody could be impressed with any of the Democrats during that Kavanaugh travesty. Cynically and very publicly charging a man with multiple rapes that everybody knows never happened, and yes, Vicky, you know it didn't happen, yet you persist with supporting that vicious lie.

Kevin म्हणाले...

I lost what ever respect I had for him after that exchange

You seem to think that was a perfectly innocent question.

It wasn't. It was a carefully-laid trap. It was even discussed by some in the media beforehand.

If he says he ever blacked out drinking, it "explains" why she said he accosted her even while no one can back up her story.

Kavanaugh: "Yes, I blacked out once, but it wasn't that day. It wasn't at that party. And I wasn't with those people."

Klobuchar: "How do you know, if you can't remember what happened?"

He was right to see the trap and call bullshit on the question.

Kevin म्हणाले...

The Dems had her letter, they had ample time to question him beforehand, and they waited until he was on TV to drop the unsubstantiated claims.

That was the day it was clear these people would stop at nothing to get what they wanted.

Truth wasn't going to factor into it.

cf म्हणाले...

Here's an excellent example of our moment. These Democratic contenders are AWFUL and will lose a reasonably fair election against Trump by any measure.

This is the reason, I do believe, that Obama came out the other day warning that Woke Justice Warriors were going too far, and why Harry Reid recently signaled that Trump was actually a genius and hard to beat.

they are trying to prepare their heifers! let their herds down gently. Trump shines greater against these midgets. . . except for Tulsi, but they won't let her play, aye?

No they have spent 3 years insulting them and calling them names. And better yet they seem determined to chase people link Althouse into the Trump camp. I can't think of a single campaign strategy stupider than that.

I took the cartoon as the founder making a sarcastic rebuke of Nancy Pelosi. "Here's to you, Nancy, for proving we were right about creating a republic and not a direct democracy." As Alan Dershowitz writes, "... no matter how extensive the investigation is and regardless of what it uncovers, nearly all House Democrats will vote for impeachment and nearly all House Republicans will vote against it. ... It was because of this fear of partisanship in the House that the framers left the ultimate decision to remove an official to the Senate. The framers intended the Senate, which was not popularly elected at the time the Constitution was written, to be less partisan and act more like judges." https://hotair.com/headlines/archives/2019/11/partisan-impeachment-vote-exactly-framers-feared/

tim in vermont म्हणाले...

Let’s ask the founding fathers!

A well-constituted court for the trial of impeachments is an object not more to be desired than difficult to be obtained in a government wholly elective. The subjects of its jurisdiction are those offenses which proceed from the misconduct of public men, or, in other words, from the abuse or violation of some public trust. They are of a nature which may with peculiar propriety be denominated POLITICAL, as they relate chiefly to injuries done immediately to the society itself. The prosecution of them, for this reason, will seldom fail to agitate the passions of the whole community, and to divide it into parties more or less friendly or inimical to the accused. In many cases it will connect itself with the pre-existing factions, and will enlist all their animosities, partialities, influence, and interest on one side or on the other; and in such cases there will always be the greatest danger that the decision will be regulated more by the comparative strength of parties, than by the real demonstrations of innocence or guilt.

This is from Daniel Henninger's WSJ article Sep. 18, 2019,... "An argument against such a dire interpretation is that the activists’ anything-goes politics is precisely what is at stake in the struggle between the party’s left and “moderates” such as Joe Biden and Amy Klobuchar. I’m not sure I believe that now, and the reason is Minnesota’s Sen. Klobuchar.

After the Times piece appeared Saturday and her fellow candidates outputted their serial impeachment demands, Ms. Klobuchar somehow felt compelled to say the Kavanaugh confirmation “process was a sham.” This from a candidate who has tried, like Mr. Biden, to present herself as the adult in the room. That Ms. Klobuchar caved says a lot about the requirements of party membership now."

So Amy is bending her moderate positions to fit into the group. So sad.

I have gone to the Supreme Court to observe arguments and seen with my own eyes his temperament in that setting. I have read transcripts of other Supreme Court arguments in which he has participated. I can say unequivocally that Brett Kavanaugh has as good a judicial temperament as you can ask for in a judge.

I said to others at the time of the confirmation hearings that his emotional response to the outrageous personal attacks upon his character told you NOTHING about how he would perform in his judicial role. I was right.

Good observation. There is a good speech by Tucker Carlson (which I can't find right now) in which he describes the 2016 election as a man's wife running off with the postman. He says a normal man would ask himself why. The Democrats don't do that. They assume Putin made her run off.

I know a number of people who have attended prestigious law schools, graduate 1 or 2 in their class who Kavanaugh is not fit to be in the same room with. But,I don't hate him.

So does Ann prefer the thousand words to the picture? Probably safer given poor Katie Hill’s victimization via revenge porn.

It is interesting how quickly the media memory holed the anti-kavanaugh book from a few months ago when it unexpectedly turned up the fact Blasey Ford's friend was being pressured to change her testimony to say she remembered Blasey's groping/rape incident. She has now stated for the record that she is pretty sure it didn't happen as she would have remembered how they got home from the party. This witness tampering is striking but has gone uncommented on by many lefties. I wonder why?

So doing a quick headcount of the 4 supposed "witnesses" to this incident NO ONE would confirm it except Ditzy Ford. Yet the left gets to pretend it was a credible charge only because they want it to be. That any democrat running for office believed Ford is disqualifying enough.

That was glorious, Skylark.

Do we know if Adams, Washington, Franklin, and Jefferson were ever in the same room together?

Assumes facts not in evidence.


You can spare me her jabber

That's another buck you owe me.


P.S. If I had to guess I’d say DJT. And, whatever she did, I’m sure that the faults of nasty libs motivated her mind


That's our adSs: always wrong, never in doubt

LOLOLOL

Yes, your "feelings", devoid of substance, facts, evidence. At least none that you can detail, because there is not detail.

Just more lefty lunatic caterwauling.

The little lefty dogs bark, but the caravan moves on......

I don't see Klobuchar drinking a beer? Wine, yes! Anyway, AA, that was not her question, that was a question and script provided by the Democratic Tribe to everyone of their "Spanish Inquisitors". That we are discussing this as real life versus pure fiction from a Hollywood movie is amazing.

No. You just want to hit him in the face. I don't know how we misread your intentions. My apologies.

Yup.

And on the Impeachment/Ukraine matter, then left forgets all about Bill Clinton's 1998 treaty with Ukraine on cooperating on investigations.

Drago,

She is a follower of the "wise" Latina. Nuff said

The "wise latina" and Kagan aren't mental giants. Thurgood Marshall, Sandra Day O'Connor, Stevens, Souter, and william O dougas, Whizzer White, brennan were all medicare minds.

"But he's wasn't smart enough", is just another lefty lies. The only reason the Liberal/Left opposed Kavanaugh is because he was somewhat conservative and Trump nominated him. To believe otherwise, is to be a boob.

But hey, those guys aren't around to comment on Pelosi's actions...or the cast of characters involved in spygate.

Klobuchar seemed to stumble in response to Kavanaugh's.
That he got testy dealing with that pathetic inquisition shouldn't have surprised her.
He boofed in her general direction.

Who knows whether he will be able to match wits with towering intellects like Wise Latina.

Actually i shouldn't have said that i feel. i actually have proof, from people who have worked for him in the past.
Drago, do you know the facts? You are just spouting the right wing platitudes your "friends" have instructed you to say, not an original thought in your head.

As usual, your connection with the truth is tenuous at best, just like your boss, the Cheeto.

Arf,arf, righties. As usual, you are barking up the wrong tree.
