Investigate away! Though it'll be interesting to see exactly what you're investigating, considering the woman who made this allegation refuses to be part of any investigation. The only thing an investigation will do is cement in everyone's minds how utterly ridiculous Democrats are. So go right ahead - it'll only hurt your own political party. |
This is funny, considering there are many people posting here, yet you seem certain you're only conversing with two. The only people who are taking this anonymous allegation seriously are liberals, desperately trying to find something to prevent Kavanaugh's confirmation. It's disgusting behavior. |
And how would he be "found guilty"? Do tell. |

Ah, you’re right sixty years and more ago, they were tortured to death for even looking at the wrong woman. All we want is an investigation. |
You do realize that far more CEOs, etc. have *not* been accused of sexual misconduct, than those who have, right? That's quite a sweeping generalization there. |
You're right... I desperately need a safe space because this thread is so triggering. Thanks for projecting your deep insecurities onto a perfect stranger. |
Must suck for his family.
I wonder if more women will come forward. |
This is 2018. What you want is revenge for heinous acts that occurred decades ago. You don't want real justice. You just want revenge. |
I disagree. If the President can be taped saying, just grab them by the pussy and they let you AND still be elected, then sure . . . the bar seems to be pretty low. But this is significant, if only because it may encourage more women to come forward. The power of #metoo has never been based upon equating various unwanted sexual advances with rape. It's been in the cumulative force of several voices testifying to repeated incidences of men feeling entitled to take what they want, when they want it, regardless of someone else's feelings and desires. And that behavior to me seems ethically significant. |
Given your choice of adjective, wouldn't you want revenge/punishment/justice? If this had happened to you, would you want your aggressor to become a Supreme Court judge while everyone pooh-poohs what you went through? But I agree this smells on the face of it. I find Feinstein's motives here are quite obscure. Why did she wait so long, when she had the letter in June? Did she think it would have more power now? Or did she seek to hide the information until other Democrats pressured her? The worst that could happen is that this woman's accusations are true and that they are discounted. But how on earth can we tell??? |
Let's just stop giving our dear little boys everything they want. Or they'll become men who are entitled to have whatever (or whomever) they want. Think about how parents are creating entitled children... who usually become entitled adults. Think about it. |
Equally as possible that the woman was drunk and misremembers. Or that she was trying to have sex with Kavanaugh and has second thoughts after he laughed at her and therefore called it “rape.” |
True. |
And then she sought psychotherapy for it? Not likely. |
