3 glasses aren't really used. Team of two boys vs one girl. Losing girl gets raped. Devil’s Triangle. Bethesda, c 1982.


Were all the parents completely checked out? What kind of demented teenagers would come up with $hit like this? It's like the Lord of the Flies.

Also interesting that neither her parents nor siblings support her



This is funny since a few pages ago, you guys were accusing her and her father of being part of a CIA plot against Kavanaugh since her dad is former CIA!

What on earth are you blabbering about? We're talking about an innocent man (because last I checked, we are ALL innocent until proven guilty) being attacked based on an allegation with zero evidence. But sure, try and spin it into "Republicans are fearful of being hunted and unfairly accused"??? WTF.


In a criminal trial. Kavanaugh cannot at this time be sentenced to jail.



Innocent until proven guilty is a general standard we have adopted in this country. It's not only for criminal trials. It's something we value and ought to value in any case.


+1 beginning in early school years

I feel that this is setting the #metoo movement back.

If the message is believe any allegation then what is the message we are sending?

I simply do not believe her.


What is the message we are sending if we only believe allegations that involve a video or a witness? That if someone rapes a woman in a forest where no one hears her scream, then it didn't happen?

So the girls kept going back to parties where they knew this happened? Repeatedly? And no one ever told anyone? Hard to believe.

I've been kind of surprised that there haven't been a bunch of people who went to high school and college with her piping up to defend her. Seems there would be a ton of people from her teenage years and early 20s who'd have something to say about her character like there has been (in both good and bad terms) with Kavanaugh.


She has had a lot of friends and classmates come forward to defend her.

Remember, though, Kavanaugh is prominent socially and will soon be a Supreme Court justice. It's hard to go agains that. Ford's lawyer had to resign from his firm before he took her on as a client, because they didn't want to possibly get on the wrong side of a Supreme Court justice.

My biggest takeaway from all of this is how many DCUMers are complete and total dorks.

Yes, why yes. We are.

I think they both are telling the truth. And what was supposed to be a fact finding mission simply revealed the sad state of our country.

It's not the Democrats who've stopped the Kavanaugh vote - it's moderate Republicans. The few who are left who seem to be taking seriously their Constitutional duty of advice and consent. That's why the WH has so tightly limited the FBI investigation - they're trying to walk the fine line between not actually finding anything bad and giving Collins and Murkowski enough cover to vote for him.

The problem is, as people get over the shock of the hearing and actually think about it and watch clips from it, they're realizing that Kavanaugh's behavior - the lying, avoiding of questions, obsession with beer - is not what we want in a Supreme Court justice. Will those few undecided Senators be brave and vote against him? Or will they toe the party line? That's what this week is about.


Speak for yourself. The people I know feel exactly the opposite way. We feel his anger and emotions were fully warranted, given the accusations against him. I don't hold that against him at all. I would have been very shocked had he remained calm and pleasant, given the obvious assumption of guilt many of the Democrats have toward him. I know if I were accused of something I didn't do, I'd be hard-pressed not to throttle those asking the questions.


Pro tip: then don’t apply to be a Supreme Court Justice. Because this isn’t Bob at the beer hall. We expect much, much more from them. For example, them to hold it together even in difficult, emotional, stressful situation. It’s a big boy game. Wear a cup.

Can you imagine the hue and cry if they dared to do that?

Is there evidence? If not, it’s hard to just “believe her.”

It's much, much more than a big boy game to accuse someone of attempted rape and almost smothering you. Your memory needs to be perfectly accurate, and there should be some kind of evidence or support.
