The four "big bangs" that kill atheism 

Here's a terrific roundup up of the Democrats efforts to block the Kavanaugh Hearings and how the media turned him into a rapist. Missing of course was that scene when Ms. Ford found out that the committee would have been happy to come to California to talk to her, but the lawyer shut down that line of enquiry by referring to attorney-client privilege. Of course the lawyers were working for the Democrats, not their client, and they never told her about the offer; they wanted to create optics of the evil Republicans cross-examining the innocent victim.  Also missing was that scene at the end when one of the Democrat staffers handed the lawyer a check in an envelope on national television.

We watched the Kavanaugh hearings. There was a major moment when it came out that Ford didn't know that the committee offered to come to California. That was because her lawyers were actually working for the Democratic party and were constructing a media event. When it came out, Ford's lawyer actually covered the microphone and said this was part of attorney-client privileged communication to try and keep it secret. A complaint has been filed with the bar association about this scheme.
