THANK YOU. I’m the PP who seriously doubted that someone who graduated from Prep 35+ years ago could find 65 women who even knew who he was in high school, much less could vouch for his character then. I went to NCS, still live in DC, have a dozen VERY close friends from high school and would have a hard time coming up with 65 MEN, who obviously didn’t actually go to high school with me, vouching for my high school character with two days notice. My husband, who went to the New Jersey Georgetown Prep equivalent, said the same thing. It’s not believable. |
Here's another outlet who says the FBI would have investigated it as part of their background investigation process if they had been notified sooner: https://abovethelaw.com/2018/09/the-details-behind-the-sexual-misconduct-allegations-against-brett-kavanaugh/ |
Why did Feinstein sit on it for so long? |
I think you've misunderstood the PP. She was saying it's completely believable that this list of women was pulled together very quickly. |
Well yes, but also that it’s unbelievable that every single one of them knew him in high school and can personally vouch for his character at that time? Because that sounds like some bullsh!t. |
No. The Rebuolicans won that award with Nixon and have owned it ever since I. How do you know when a Republican is lying or spinning-- when they open their mouth. |
It's total bullshit. At most, maybe 5 to 10 people could really be close enough to be considered a reliable chsracter witness. Besides, there were women who vouched for Al Franken's character, but that didn't stop the conservatives, including the ones in this forum, from howling for his resignation. Why should Kavanaugh be treated differently? He may be a Republican, but he's not above the law. |
Seems to me that when this many women organize themselves to write a letter, it speaks to his strong character and integrity. Combine that with the numerous other character statements already submitted and he seems to be a man above reproach. |
Very strange that they had this letter all ready to go. Seems they were expecting an accusation of this nature. |
Not true. Please keep up. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisgeidner/brett-kavanaugh-allegations-women-letter-chuck-grassley |
Character witnesses are of little value in a legal defense. |
There is no legal defense needed since there is nobody pressing any charges. |
The FBI said it wasn't investigating the allegations "at this time." It doesn't mean they won't be investigated at all. |
Likely, she sat on it because she knows it's not a really credible accusation but was pressured to do it as a last ditch effort. As a woman, I'm embarrassed for her because it's beneath her usual way of operating and weakens her own credibility. |
Just read a tweet where someone predicted this would happen a week or so ago. Dems didn't bring out Anita Hill until after the hearings--this led to more hearings. So, is that what they are doing here? Someone predicted that right before the vote, that the woman would come forward publicly. Sadly, that is likely. Smear tactics. |
