The FBI and Kavanaugh

It is now patently obvious that the supplemental background check performed by the FBI was a sham. The only uncertainty is why and the options for answering that are limited. Either the Bureau was straitjacketed by instructions received from Chairman Grassley and/or the White House or the agents were incompetent and/or ill-motivated. The failure to interview a majority of available witnesses or attempt to pinpoint the time and place of the assault is inexcusable. The scope of the inquiry was limited to corroboration of the attack and neglected to pursue evidence of excessive drinking or lying by Judge Kavanaugh.
Whatever the failings of the investigation, no rationale senator can ignore the blatant demonstration of Judge Kavanaugh's injudicious temperament and undisguised partisanship. As a horde of law professors have opined, Judge Kavanaugh is unfit to serve as a Justice of the Supreme Court
