Yes, Ford should be a bit concerned since her dear friend could not corroborate her story.

Friend already said she believed her.

I wasn't there, and I don't know the people who were there, and I don't know the location or the year you were there, and I don't know what you were doing; but I believe you anyway just cuz I believe you.

This is a man who ranted about his disdain for Democrats and threatened them - he’ll have to recuse himself from any case where a Democratic Party member or known liberal individual or group brings a case before the court. He is also dangerous - our Democratic institutions require as apolitical judiciary as is feasible. No reasonable person could expect Kavanaugh to be unbiased in cases where liberals or Democrats are involved.

And then there’s his very deliberate obfuscation and lies. The Devils Triangle is a drinking game? Boofing is farting? Renate was just a really good friend you admired? C’mon, Brett.

He was defending himself. He had every right to be angry and righteously indignant considering the horrendous allegations thrown at him.
And, I am sure you have the same opinion regarding partisanship regarding RBG.

RBG in 2016 regarding Trump: "He is a faker. He has no consistency about him. He says whatever comes into his head at the moment. He really has an ego.... How has he gotten away with not turning over his tax returns?"

What’s partisan about that? GOPers are always saying that Trump has nothing to do with the GOP, he’s just there.

Also, what’s not factually correct about RBG’s statement? He is a faker. He is completely inconsistent. He does say whatever pops into his head. He has a horrible ego problem. And no one has seen his taxes. Pointing out that Trump is a charlatan harlot is not the same thing as claiming that the Clintons and the liberals are out to get you.

I noticed Brett Kavanaugh yesterday with fake tears. I'm going to ask him who is his acting coach.

You don’t know your friends’ characters? You wouldn’t know which one to trust? You wouldn’t know who’s a bit of a fabulist and how isn’t?

If both parties speak with passion and clarity, but one of them says many inconsistent, evasive, irrational, and false things, while the other does not, then we actually have a very good indicator of which party is telling the truth.

There's way too much alcohol in all these stories for me to be comfortable

And already, his life has been permanently altered. Nice.

Nothing has happened to his life. This will all be old news in a couple of weeks and he will be on the SCOTUS.

B.S. Whether he is or isn't confirmed, his life will never be the same. Thanks in large part to people like you.

I’m sorry but so what? Statistically speaking, she’s probably telling the damn truth.

But you don't know that she is. No one knows who's telling the truth. And I certainly care about an innocent man being treated as if he's guilty. You claim to also, but of course, only if we're talking about a POC. Right?

It doesn't matter. If you have a hint of scandal = NO SUPREME COURT

He was a wild guy in high school and partied a lot. Those are the breaks.

Funny that didn't come out until so late in the process. Really funny.

or during all the years of his adult life in which no one has every come forward with anything of this nature

People - women - don't come forward with this type of allegation because they fear the very criticism and speculation Ford's allegations brought to her.

That backlash against the accuser can be as painful as the initial assault. Sure, innocent until proven guilty, but accusers have the right to come forward without being painted as angry/crazy/unstable/loose/embittered (fill in the blank) harpies who were out to ruin Brett's very fine and upstanding career. Which is exactly how conservatives have painted Ford.

Conservatives just want these women to shut up. Unless of course they are making accusations against a Democrat and then conservatives are so very concerned about women (Franken).

Then 15 year old girls should not drink beer at parties with older athletes who are heavy drinkers.

Always blame the victim. Boys will be boys.

Look she was a 15 year old partier. She took a risk and it didn’t cut her way.

Same for Kavanaugh. He was a partier. Now it's not cutting his way.

But you'll take her partying side over his partying side. Correct?

Already discussed. He had no connections to Yale Law School.

His grandfather went to Yale undergrad, so a small connection for undergrad, but it wouldn't have counted for anything for Yale Law School.

Sure he had the right to be angry. He did not have the “right” to act like an unhinged partisan hack. That was his choice - not a right. The fact that his temper flared and he acted like a jerk to Senators shows that he can’t appropriately communicate under pressure. Totally unbecoming of a SCJ.

And RBG stating that Trump is inconsistent is her stating the facts; the man lies and even his supporters admit this. It’s also not the same as drumming up conspiracy theories and threatening your political opposition with retaliation. That crossed a line that even many conservatives I know are deeply troubled by. Not the same at all.

When you're talking about accusations like rape and murder, I think it should take more than "I believe my friend."

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/christine-blasey-ford-friend-leland-keyser-clarifies-statement-about-alleged-assault-by-brett-kavanaugh/


Cliffs of insanity party of millions...

Not a single Ford supporter will explain this.

It’s been explained so many times but I’ll do it again: that gathering was a non-event for Keyser so nobody expects her to remember. They went to the pool almost every day, it sounds like small gatherings after being at the pool were a regular occurrence, and Ford didn’t tell her about the assault. Can you recall every gathering big or small that you went to as a freshman in college and who was there? I certainly cannot, I pretty much just remember events, etc. with personal significance, even then I can’t remember much detail. Even though she doesn’t remember anything she trusts her friend and believes her.

And, I will say it again.... Her own friend has said she does not know Kavanaugh. How do you reconcile this..... Ford said after her alleged assault, she went downstairs, left the house where her friend was and the three boys were downstairs with her. How could this be if her friend says she doesn’t know Kavanaugh?

Easy. I hung out with many people over the years briefly and I have no recollection of them today.

Let’s consider the situation. 4 boys. 2 girls. One girl claims she was sexually assaulted while 2 boys and another girls were downstairs. The two boys who allegedly assaulted her go downstairs and join the other 2 boys and 1 girl. That is 4 boys and 1 girl downstairs.
Ford claims she left at that point. Seemingly, leaving her friend with these other 4 boys. Several questions come to mind....
1. Evidently, Ford was not at all considered about the safety of her friend with the 4 boys, despite the fact that she was allegedly assaulted. You don’t find that strange? You don’t find it odd that she never asked her friend what happened after she left?
2. Leland was allegedly in the room with 4 boys, one of which was allegedly Kavanaugh, yet she claims not to know him. Seriously? A small gathering such as this and she still claims she doesn’t know him?
3. Ford leaves, not knowing how she got home. Does her friend not wonder why she left? Wouldn’t a friend follow up and ask her about it?

It makes no sense......

[Anonymous]

Can everyone supporting Kavanaugh tell us why you are overlooking his obvious lies under oath? Putting all the allegations aside and just looking at the yearbook definitions he gave and is clearly lying about - how do you rationalize that? I really want to hear from someone.

Feinstein recommended them. Hmmmmm......

Who recommended Kavanaugh's lawyers? Hmmmmm.......

The real question is why didn't Feinstein turn the allegation over to the FBI to investigate?

This has been answered ad nauseum. Ford asked her to keep it confidential. She only came forward once her identity was blown.

She wanted it kept confidential so she sent it to a senator (and tipped off the Washington Post)? You disclose it to your therapist or best friend if you want it kept completely private, not to a senator on the judiciary committee who has an obligation to report it to the rest of the committee and to the FBI for the nominee's background check at which time it could have been handled in a non-public manner.

Thank you. Feinstein really screwed up. Big time.

Feinstein. did. not. leak. it. I just hate how comfortable right wingers are with flat out lying; you people are deranged and poisoning America.

I have no idea whether someone from Feiny’s office leaked it but no way, no how is anyone ever going to admit if they did.

In 1985, that is not true. Today, true.
