Democrats in glass house as they toss stones at Brett Kavanaugh

Judge Brett Kavanaugh has a clean background -- a point which is most troubling for the Democrats, who are trying to make a case from Christine Blasey Ford's dotted, foggy memories that his supposed sexual assaulting past ought to halt his Supreme Court nomination in its path. Their problem is: The allegations don't match.

Jeff Flake’s astonishing admission of no principles

Sen. Jeff Flake said in an interview on "60 Minutes" that if he were running for re-election, there'd be no way he would call for the FBI to investigate Judge Brett Kavanaugh. This is astonishing. What Flake is admitting, in essence, is that he is unprincipled.

Democrats are playing chess; Republicans, go fish

Brett Kavanaugh shouldn't have had to take such a hard and lonely stand. He shouldn't have been so far out on the Republican branch, absent his Republican support system.

Ted Cruz restaurant confrontation backfires

The uncalled-for and inappropriate verbal attack on Sen. Ted Cruz and his wife at a D.C. restaurant has backfired, it seems, and now the owners of the establishment say they're getting death threats. This is not a 'hey-ho, that's what the left gets' moment. Nobody deserves death threats. But it is a wake-up call to the Democrats.

Republicans cannot let Democrats win on Brett Kavanaugh

Republicans simply cannot cede this Supreme Court battleground over Judge Brett Kavanaugh to Democrats. If they do, it's not just President Donald Trump who will be affected -- who will see his rightful White House authority to select judicial picks erode in the face of angry politicking. It's the country's constitutional system that will suffer.

Kirsten Gillibrand, a hypocrite who got due process she’s denying Brett Kavanaugh

Kirsten Gillibrand, the senator at the forefront of calling for a withdrawal of Judge Brett Kavanaugh's name from Supreme Court nomination, was once herself accused of seedy ties to a sexual slave cult. She denied it. But according to the standard she's trying to stick on Kavanaugh, shouldn't Gillibrand's seat be held by another?

Christine Blasey Ford could indeed be lying

I knew two girls growing up who lied about being raped. Or, more to truth, I knew two girls growing up who said they were raped and then a couple days later, recanted. There are indeed cases where women, for whatever reasons, do make up these stories.

Christine Blasey Ford is not the victim here — Brett Kavanaugh is

The left has been having its usual field day with truth, drumming a beat that Christine Blasey Ford is a victim, simply because she pointed a finger Judge Brett Kavanaugh's way, and therefore she has a right to remain hidden in the shadows, shielded from questioning and criticisms and prying eyes into her past because, after all -- she is the Victim. But at this point in time, it's Kavanaugh who's the victim.
