So much has happened.
TLB, I used "Kav" in quotes because that nickname was used in some frat boy defense of grabass perv-hood by one of his mates on social media. I actually thought you were having fun with that nickname. So it's all good, with me. I was more referencing that source, which I thought you were referencing.... I'm going to just let this be.
As stated in the article I quoted, the FBI collects allegations. It's tradition not to investigate further unless someone with the authority (in this case I think only Trump can trigger it) requests it. (See my post above.)
So yes, I think it's completely disingenuous for the one guy who could prompt an FBI investigation (Trump) to act like it couldn't happen. "The FBI can't do anything..." Yeah, because of him not wanting them to do so. Please.
After the whole "I was a virgin" Kavanaugh interview, and public commentary by teammates and roommates and schoolmates about Kavanaugh and his sloppy drunk behavior (and he completely denies ever being really drunk) is ridiculous.
So yes I have found Kavanaugh to completely lack credibility, but I've also actually followed this closely. I investigated like 4chan

based on his interview, having multiple accusers with have corroboration by witnesses, etc.
And it annoys me that people in this thread are so sure it's a left-wing plot. Proof?
Also, Dr. Ford's testimony, which is corroborated by four individuals, and her polygraph showed her to be credible imo.
And Trump admitted he never gives accusers any credence because of accusations against him. (I tend to believe a guy who is taped stating he sexually assaults women and then is accused of doing exactly what he describes.)
Again, if the Dems had this opening with Gorsuch, they would have taken it. They didn't.
Kavanaugh is damaged goods at this point. There are other candidates who would sailed through.
But Trump thought he looked the part. Still does.
tl:dr
In truth, I think a thorough investigation by the FBI of witnesses under oath (with perjury penalty) is the best solution.
This process is grotesquely political now, and I'm not squeamish about it, but anyone who doesn't even acknowledge it is just an idiot or someone selling a story.
