johnny, just like everyone else, you're assuming. I don't disagree with you... but, again the question stands... Ford told various politicians about the allegation two months ago. Why was an investigation not opened by Ford, then?
Ummm . . .
1) Ford cannot open an investigation for the FBI.
2) She was not planning on being thrust into the public spotlight and it is only now that she is openly calling for an investigation because she is being put in the public spotlight.
Good DOG you are stupid!

You need a new line, dude.
"You need some meds."
"Did you take your meds?"
"Get some meds."
Seriously, dude, get an original thought. Heck, just try to have a thought, any thought!

As it stands right now, he and, maybe, Ford testify before the Senate and it's a he said/she said. As long as he doesn't fall apart and confess, he should be OK. But maybe he knows that, if the FBI starts poking around, it can only get worse for him.
You would think that, if he is innocent, he would not only welcome an FBI investigation but actually demand it himself.

The real issue for Kavanaugh is the Christine Blasey Ford will likely proceed with filling sexual assault charge against in the State of Maryland—where the assault occurred. There is NO statute of limitation for sexual assault in Maryland. If charges are filed Maryland will investigate the case. Witness will be interviewed—they have no choice.
Then it get really interesting. If Kavanaugh is official charged with a sex crime he would receive prison time. There is no law that states that a judge, any judge, even a SCOTUS judge, cannot be convicted of a sex crime. Trump will not be able to pardon Kavanaugh because it is a State matter. Kavanaugh he would lose his SCOTUS seat—assuming the Republicans can ram him through—by being impeached, and Kavanaugh goes to jail.

Yup, that's Igy for you. Zero critical thinking skills. Great at saying "take your meds". All-in, 100% Trumpette. Tireless liar.
There is a reason he is known as Lying Gary Lite.

Here is what agip thinks of you every time he humors you with your Dow pollution:
“What kind of an amoral ideologue still supports a politician who has had FIVE campaign officials plead guilty to federal charges?”
Let that sink in. That is what the only person on LRC who can stand you at all truly considers you to be - an amoral ideologue.

Given that Trump gutted Dodd-Frank (at a time when banks were making record profits no less), I'm pretty sure the big banks are a lot happier with Trump than Obama.
Get ready for another Bush recession. Get ready for Trump to bail out the big banks.
Bank bailouts in a rising interest rate environment? Back away from the crack pipe, please.

Why request an Investigation now?
Why not request an investigation two months ago?
Why did she not want to go public?
How does that work, anyway? A person accuses a high-profile individual of a serious crime, but yet, they don't request an investigation AND they want anonymity?

Based on what evidence?
oh come now, she says it was him, and someone says she is honest. She also has a good memory for names. And isn't all that is important?
in all seriousness, this continues to be a delay tactic by the Ds. Ms Ford may believe she has a legitimate complaint, but that is not how this is being played. Right now, if the Rs accept the terms she has offered to testify, that delays the hearing until next Friday (1 week notice required). But there is no way they accept those terms, so now we are into October. At some point a hearing. I can't see that resolving anything. So then, the day before the vote she files charges in MD as suggested above. That takes a week or so to come up with whatever they come up with, likely nothing new. So then a new vote scheduled, probably October 10 or so. By then the Ds will have come up with the next delay tactic.
The Rs should bite the bullet and draw the line with the hearing kept on Monday. She had a weeks notice for this and didn't bother to respond for 3-4 days. D's will cry foul, but they will no matter what is done. Recall first they said you can't have 11 white men decide this, now Ms Ford's lawyer is insisting on that.

Might as well have posted an article about a UFO abduction. What do you get out of posting an article from zero hedge without having any substantiated knowledge of the facts? This is exactly why the issue does warrant an investigation. A more objective assessor than the committee dying to confirm him at all costs should be driving it. I’m sure you found that theory very compelling.

Geezus, this entire charade is devoid of facts, douche. How does anybody know any facts of the case? Nobody has even been investigated or testified.

You guys need to get it through your hollow skulls that this is all being politicized because it’s a political process, shocker! However, no amount of politics should water down this type of accusation. It doesn’t matter who had the letter and for how long and when the accuser decided to say something. Allegations need to be taken seriously and especially for a SCOTUS nominee, period. That Dems are stalling or the GOP had 65 women instantly ready to defend him has zero to do with the underlying accusation. It doesn’t make the accusation less serious. They simply need to be taken seriously. Isn’t that easy to see, even through trumper goggles?
This is how idiotic the long-winded doucheinator is...

The law does not work the way you wish it did. Kavanaugh will be convicted of a crime same as Jerry Sandusky, Bill Cosby, etc.
Oh, one accusation vs multiple
The whole is fu-ked then.
How's your closet?
