With the last nomination the Republicans demanded we wait an entire year before we even considered a confirmation hearing for a nominee, but now suddenly there is this huge urgency.

Again, if this was a school board trying to hire a high school principal and such accusations suddenly came to light, they would stop everything and have an investigation.

Why is the President telling us the FBI cannot do an investigation when we know they can - they did with Anita Hill. It's routine for the FBI to re-open an background investigation when new information comes forward. Why aren't they holding an investigation?

Do you know why they aren't interested in an investigation? With this new information coming forward people are claiming Kavanaugh was a party animal and intoxicated more often than he was sober. A new investigation into Kavanaugh will make him look very bad, and when this new information comes out in an investigation he won't be confirmed.

The Republican party demanded dozens of investigations into Hillary Clinton for no reason. Now they don't want to have any investigations. It doesn't work this way. You cannot demand investigations for no reason other than political purposes for a witch hunt, and then deny investigations when someone accuses a nominee of sexual assault.

Hold an investigation. It's just that simple.
