(First show me in the Constitution of the United States of America, that this is a requirement. And if it is so for a judge, regardless of rank (ie, City, State, Federal Judge) it would be covered under article 3 of the US Constitution. No where in Article 3 does it mention this as a requirement.
By the way, Article III, section one states: The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services, a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office.)
also read by the constitution in Article II section 2, step 2 this: He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments.
With that being said let us explore your "air tight case"
1. Judge Kavanaugh was questioned for over 30 hours and a record of 1287 questions and the Democrats have even more questions.
2. Judge Kavanaugh was subjected to 7 FBI investigations since 1992. As a result of these governmental and FBI investigations it is hard to conceive that the incident Mrs. Ford alleges is creditable.
3. Judge Kavanaugh's reaction to the death threats to him and his family, based upon the allegation of an alleged event, by senators in a conformation hearing is not honorable. It was not honorable for President Clinton to be questioned on his sexual impropriety in the 1990s with Paula Wilke and Monica Lewinski, as it is not honorable for Bret Kavanagh to be questioned on his sexual impropriety from high school over 30 years ago. Therefore his reaction is that of a man who was falsely accused, and that accusation caused the danger his family and that of Mrs. Ford.
4. Improper procedure by Sen. Dianne Feinstein, by not keeping Mrs. Ford's allegation confidential is a disciplinary problem of and unbecoming of a US. Senator. Her actions shall go down in history, as the actions that could potentially destroy the Democrat party as a whole. But it is up to the Senators in the Senate to determine this. Sen. Grassley has already accused Senator Feinstein of this improper use of information. If Kavanaugh was questioned fairly and biasedly we would have a different outcome. Kavanaugh was honored by the whole body of Senators, until this confirmation hearing.
5. The actions of Brett Kavanaugh is normal for an American Citizen living in America today. After undergoing many questions, more so than any other candidate ever nominated for the supreme court, he was attacked through threats and character assassination, for him to keep his composure is not human. However, at first, as he was ignored, he categorically denied all the allegations. Until the Senators, the Democratic Senators started repeating their character assassination questions on him, did he act. His actions challenged the motive of their questions. As a result great disrespect of his dignity was comprised during the hearing.
But in my opinion the entirety of the above is just a bunch of mumble jumble and seemingly legal BS. The point I am making here is the Constitution protects people like Kavanaugh from such a despicable display of character assassination. The rule of law is simply this "The accused is to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, by a jury of his peers."
Judge Kavanaugh is a lawyer, and a judge. Most of, if not all of the senators are lawyers. So the profession is the same and the judiciary committee can be considered a jury of his peers. In this light, by the nature of a us lawyer, for both the prosecution and defense, the accused is innocent until proven guilty. This did not happen. I expected one senator, usually from the minority, to act as a prosecuting attorney, where the majority is acting on behalf of the defense. This is a game the senate plays and has played for many years. With that being said, and with the fact that the 7th FBI report shows no corroboration with Mrs. Ford or any of his accusers, me as American public is calling foul!. The prosecution failed to prove its case. Let's confirm the judge.
If Judge Kavanaugh is not confirmed then we just as well as throw out the constitution, because we are not following it anymore.
