The crazies have already called for Kavanaugh to be impeached (before he has even been confirmed) It's the same playbook as they used against Trump https://www.vox.com/2018/9/27/17910524/supreme-court-impeach-impeachment-brett-kavanaugh

Maybe he did, but that doesn't stop it from moving forward now.
And who knows why he did what he did. Maybe he was just trying to save face. Maybe he's playing a game. Maybe Trump even told him to do that, who the hell knows. Right now it's moving forward and thats all that matters.

He didn't say his vote won't be in favor, he just said he thinks it would be a good idea and Grassley agreed to placate him so they could move the vote forward knowing full well that McConnell would have to agree with that stipulation and the ball is now out of his court. They won the vote 11 to 10. The confirmation vote will go before the full senate now.

The voted to pass it out of committee. Now it will be up to the full senate.
Flakes wants them to give the Dems an FBI investigation limited in scope and no more than 1 week in duration before the full senate vote. He said introduced the option for consideration to stop the Dems from whining about it but they'd still just whine about something else.
I don't think that would stop them from whining. Unless the FBI says Kavaugh is a serial rapist they'll say it wasn't done fairly or something. I say let them keep whining and just vote. They haven't stoppep whining, obstructing and lying since POTUS was elected.
It looks like Flake took a walk down the hallway and a group of democrats pushed him into a small room and gang raped him. They so traumatized him that on his own authority, he made a deal for the whole Senate to postpone action on the nomination for up to a week or whatever time his new masters desired.

Just saw Coons saying that he is hoping an FBI report will be delivered to the Senate Judiciary Committee within a week. Then what, genius? The Committee JUST VOTED THE NOMINATION FORWARD and is finished with this matter! Wouldn't the FBI deliver any report to Mitch McConnell, who is now left holding this clusterfuck?

If they really wanted an FBI report, Sessions could order the FBI to put all available agents on this ASAP and have it done by tomorrow. There is nothing to investigate. Won't take a week and won't allow the DEMONS to go fishing for more psychosluts to lie.

They, being the NSA and the CIA, have the info. I saw an article where Haskell made a trip a week or so ago to Utah “on a Sunday”...why??? To pull anti-Ford information and data to support the Kavanaugh confirmation.
Maybe they can provide the information on Monday and then proceed with the vote on Tuesday as scheduled.
