Watching the inquisition (questioning) of Dr. Ford by the Judicial committee was eye opening. Republicans gave up their rights to ask their questions to a sex crime prosecutor and the Democrats asking their own questions of Dr. Ford. We, as the public watching, are getting schooling on how not to do a questioning of a congressional witness, if truth is what is wanted. Dr. Ford came off very credible and very truthful. She had poise and a very regal demeanor. If I was on the committee, after listing to both Ford and Kavanaugh, I would go with Ford. Ford had the answers to all of the questions and explained what she meant.
The questioning of Brett Kavanaugh is not an inquisition, but just a questioning. This just becomes a she said, he said situation. This committee proceeding will accomplish nothing. It will come down to who to believe, with no facts for verification on Kavanaugh’s side. Kavanaugh does not want an independent investigation. He was ask time and again by the Democrats to involve or have the President involve the FBI in an investigation of the allegations alleged by Dr.Ford. It is my belief, that Kavanaugh is shooting himself in the foot with his combative attitudes during the questioning by the committee. He became argumentative and combative with the Democrats questioning. During the questions, Kavanaugh looked like a joke. He was very non-judge like in his demeanor and in his answers. He talked to, at and over the questioning Democratic Senators. This committee meeting wss a joke with Kavanaugh looking weak and not like a man ready to become a Supreme Court Justice. It will now be up to the whole senate to confirm or deny his appointment. The vote is supposed to come on the morrow. Now the American people will just have to wait and see what happens. May the Senate remember that they work for the American people and not for the President. If they care only for what Trump wants, then the American People will be screwed one more time.
