AddictedtoKCMO Just democrats? The majority of women? The independents? Hell, the voters of ME? Shame on you SenatorCollins.

karenaboylan Why frame this solely as “Democrats slam...” How about something like “Kavanaugh’s short tenure already suggests he lied to Collins or she lied about what was said to her” ?

Some of us even ended up in Twitter Jail for our comments -

VoteBlue2020 sure hope SenatorCollins gets Kavanaughed

Politicians are greedy, lying, demonic satanists.

Move to Maine. Register to vote. Work the campaign for her opponent. Get the vote out against SenatorCollins. Win. Move home. Yeah. I can do that. (Especially if StephenKing ran against her.)

Again, no one cares about Kavanaugh news anymore it was all bulshit anyway

SenatorCollins knew Biff Kavanaugh was going to be hostile to Roe. She wasn’t fooled. She was trying to play us for fools. She will be defeated in 2020. Bank on it.

I want to be loved.

Kavenaugh is awesome!

DebraMessing Susan Collins is married to a lobbyist.

Definitely m Collins sold out!

I am not surprised pass on this

All the men should grab her ass and thank her. God bless Susan now we can grope and tell sexist jokes again.

If they didn’t nominate HRH they wouldn’t have this problem.

She was a dolt.

Not JUST Dems it is MANY moderate Republicans who voted for her who are pretty damn mad at her too!

Well she was too easily duped OR a liar. Pick one! Either way she shouldn't be in office anymore.

Collins stood up for her principles. She is a good example, and the rest of the democratic party should be ashamed of themselves. If these radical liberals were actually right, they wouldn't need to bully and harass everyone else in their party.

kobelicious1 Collins knew! CollinsKnew

Kavanaugh said Roe Vs Wade was settled law. This legislation is not the same as Roe Vs Wade. It was to give states the ability to require abortion death houses to have reasonable standards in line with medical facilities. Doesn’t diminish or touch on Roe Vs Wade.

SenatorCollins is a coward liar. Remember she stood in front of the nation promised she got promise from drunken sex. Assaulter BrettKavanaugh ‘s support of women rights convinced her R v W wouldb safe. Kiev didn’t support it! Too much🍺? Lawrence The_Forecaster MSignorile

Too little, too late

Is there truly any Real America that gives 'poop' about a Democratic party that is attempting to destroy this great country? LisaMei62 marklevinshow TomiLahren IngrahamAngle

I don’t think she cares. Sad

mom4boca Good!!!!

Kavanaugh's appointment was in violation of the constitution He was selected upon the direction of the Heritage Foundation He was confirmed without A consensual majority of the Senate Kavanaugh became a justice without the ADVICE AND CONSENT OF THE SENATE

Her time in the Senate is up. The GOP is dead.

She “believed” Kavanaugh - his sexual assault defense AND that he wouldn’t overturn Roe v. Wade. She’s either stupid, suffering from dementia, or complicit with the “Party of Trump”. No longer fit to serve.

Boohoohoo

I teabagged Kavanaugh once at Sqee’s House when he was passed out. Needless to say he got AllahPonDeezNutz

She did the right thing

Glad we got the facts of the case before the political agenda came out. Nice opinion piece WP, acting as news article.

She’s going down in 2020

Only god knows, what else she’s sold for money.

Seems like the rest of the GOP CABAL -her loyalty is to her party not country- SAD!

She was likely promised a re-election victory in exchange for her vote.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg mailed her decision in - or did someone else make the decision for her?

And they should. She’ll side with the rest of the trumpers on Barr and Reo. Shame on her. I hope the other GOP female senators think long and hard about these issues

Collins vote for Kavanaugh was essentially a vote to hand out coat hangers.

CarsonDunn10 With. GOOD. REASON.

But where are these dems on the VA Lt. Governor? They got her to back-down so now they feel righteous? It must feel the same as blatant hypocrisy.

That's cause liberals believe they were rehashing Roe v Wade. No one bothered to read Kavanaugh's statement on the reason for his decision. It's too hard.

People can stand up for their beliefs & that’s ok. If you’re anti-choice say it don’t be phony with it like Collins & Kavanaugh!

DumpSusanCollins

Why are we surprised? We knew she was complicit and we knew her phony moderate stance was an act.

DebraMessing In Chicago instead of calling her that awful “C” word, she is referred to as “Lunt Avenue!” The joke is, “what 3 streets in Chicago rhyme with vagina?” Answer: Melvina, Paulina, and Lunt! COLLINS IS LUNT AVENUE! She knew he’d vote to end Roe v Wade & now he’s doing it!

No one would have predicted he’d vote this way. Oops, seems I misspelled “Anyone”

Aw what a shame. What are they going to say when Roe v Wade goes down.

SenatorCollins Sorry, but this was expected. You and lisamurkowski knew it would happen, you allowed it to happen with your votes. I allowed you ladies the benefit of the doubt 2 years ago, I abhorred the idea that you were getting hangars sent to your office. No more, ladies.

They should have been slamming for this all along

Elections have consequences. BTW, Where in Hell is RBG? USSupremeCourt TheJusticeDept

The party of infanticide is going to get their blowback. Stop slaughtering literal babies, and you won’t have to deal with this as much. Act like bloodthirsty monsters and people are going to fight against you. Then you won’t have to fabricate rape allegations and fake outrage.

Anyone with a functioning brain knew how kavakeg would vote in regards to abortion. Collins didn't care.

Joe Manchin is the one who they should be slamming. JusticeDemocrats OurRevolution

Senator Collins is either the stupidest Senator that has ever lived or a complete fraud. Either way, she does not belong as a representative of the people.

Two words: independent judiciary.

DebraMessing Is she could stupid or is she corrupt? I'm going to give her the benefit of the doubt—she'd stupid and corrupt.

TRAITOR!!!!!

Who cares...Democrats gonna learn 1 thing..... Republicans think for themselves!

SenatorCollins You’ll be gone soon enough!

The backbone of a jellyfish.

Susan Collins thoughtfully articulated her reasoning for voting in favor of Kavanaugh. She methodically broke things down, and delivered an excellence speech on the floor of the senate. The left is upset because Collins used facts instead of emotion to reach her final conclusion!

SenSusanCollins Kavanaugh sold you a bill of goods that you bought...I hope you are suffering from buyers remorse because he is showing his true colors.

She deserves the slam.

Radicals in control of democrat party, MSM, academia, entertainment, sports are emboldened to show their real character--reminiscent of Nazi Germany & other totalitarian states. DemocratsAreDestroyingAmerica DemocratsSupportINFANTICIDE WhoWillDemocratsComeAfterNext

dawnresist SusanCollins is considered very strong to the 'wallets' that she serves and very weak to an entire gender.

do we know if Moscow pays her also?

Told you so

As they should.

I’m sure she’s very concerned.

DebraMessing A ShitholeLiar SenatorCollins is always a ShitholeLiar SenatorCollins PEROID VoteCollinsOut2020

Same democrats that support abortion up to and after birth.

Glad she voted her conscience and got her vote correct.

Think about ti They are angry because she wouldn't convict him of a crime he didn't commit.

She lied. Vote her out in 2020.

She doesn't care. Just another fraud. Come on, Maine! You can do so much better than this.

SenatorCollins cannot be trusted to do what is right. Ever.

Since this ruling does not touch Roe vs Wade...

SenatorCollins can kiss goodbye to re-elections

It’s always funny that people thought that people thought that SenatorCollins could ever be less partisan! The woman is GOP poster woman for the Northeast. Maine pls do your job and get her out of the picture.

You should be blaming Obama. If he was not such a piss poor Prez then Trump would be Prez now.

Vote Susan Collins out!!!

Maybe she'll sleep better at night.

Sen Collins actively promotes herself as “pro-choice,” and we now see how the SC nominee she enthusiastically supported voted in an abortion case. She merits all the scorn that can he heaped upon her.

Lock her up!

For the last time, she’s a republican. Democrats shouldn’t be counting on her to do anything decent

Vote her out Mainers.

Republicans will always lie and lie ! 🍎

It was a safe bet Kavanaugh would vote as he did. Even a safer bet-she KNEW it.

SenatorCollins is a disgrace. I cannot wait until the good people of her state vote her out of office.

big surprise

Oh so it was never about Dr. Ford's clearly false allegations and was always because they wanted to kill babies? Not surprised.

She knew what she was doing. It was no mistake. In 2020, she needs to be removed.

michaelscherer She’s not a baby killer!

Nope! Not just Democrats...BECAUSE IT SO EASY TO SEE WHAT A SELLOUT SHE IS.

Collins knew exactly how Kavanaugh would vote and just didn't care.

michaelscherer Big Deal! Her statement was brilliant at the time!!

Supreme Court blocks Louisiana abortion law, 1st major ruling on abortion with Kavanaugh on courtThe ruling blocks Louisiana from enforcing a law that women's groups said would leave only a single doctor legally allowed to perform abortions in the state. Chief Justice Roberts joined the court’s 4 liberals in putting a hold on the law, pending a full review of the case. The 4 other conservative justices would have allowed it to take effect. Kavanaugh wrote a dissent explaining his vote. It’s amazing how these pro lifers have a higher pay grade then Jesus. Maybe they should look at the sin their lives. In the Bible a sin is a sin whether you murder,have affair,lie, don’t pay your taxes,sexual harassment and no one is protesting against your sins.

Supreme Court blocks Louisiana abortion clinic lawA divided Supreme Court stopped Louisiana from enforcing new regulations on abortion clinics in a test of the conservative court's views on abortion rights. The justices said by a 5-4 vote late Thursday that they will not allow the state to put into effect a law that requires abortion providers The Supreme Court has become nothing more than a Political Tool, so it is time to place a 10 year Term Limit on all Supreme Court Justices!

Changed Supreme Court weighing Louisiana abortion clinic lawWASHINGTON (AP) — The outcome of a fight over a Louisiana law regulating abortion providers could signal whether a fortified conservative majority on the Supreme Court is willing to cut back on abortion rights. The high court is expected to decide in the next few days whether the state can begin enforcing a law requiring doctors who work at abortion clinics to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital. It was passed in 2014, but has never taken effect. What about abortions at 41 weeks?!? It's really a good demonstration of what the idea of 'conservative' means when we're wondering whether or not they'll approve of massively increasing government regulation of women's bodies. Didn't one of the USSupremeCourt justices die at a whorehouse for the super-wealthy? We should have oversight of these people's performance.
