He was evasive when he was repeatedly asked to request an FBI investigation. But that's about the only time he was.
That's what I was referring to, and that's the crucial issue. Why doesn't he want the FBI to look at the allegations and potentially clear his name? I would demand it.
I have been falsely accused of things on several occasions and I have insisted that things be brought to a resolution by demanding an investigation. Each time I was vindicated and the shadows of doubt were lifted.
And rightly so. It's not up to him to request an FBI investigation.
Sure it is. He can't personally authorize one, nor legally demand it, but he can certainly ask the committee or the President to do it. If he even requested it, that would have resolved a lot of my concerns. A man who is willing to let people investigate him is a man who has nothing to hide.
If I were to criticize his appearance I would say he came off as too angry. Also, he couldn't think on his feet as adeptly as I would have liked. He had all the justification to be angry in his opening statement but he should have toned it down a bit, IMO.
I agree. It seems like he either has anger issues or holds contempt for others. We do not need a judge who holds contempt in his heart toward persons and institutions that appear before the Court. His inability to control himself and moderate his emotions concerns me. It's fine to be passionate, but we went well beyond that.
It's not a job interview.
It absolutely is. He is being interviewed for a role on the nation's highest court.
That's a leftist talking point.
If something is true, it is true. Facts are not beholden to the person who states them. They have an existence, even if they are never stated or discovered.
I agree. It is also an investigation.
