There are many, many reasons people lie. Dr. Ford does not have a single reason to lie about this.

Gee, maybe we should have a FBI INVESTIGATION!!!

The only one scared of that is Kavanaugh


+1 million. All we have is Kavanauagh’s word. That was the GoP’s Choice. The Democrats wanted to call other witnesses like Mark Judge and have an investigation.

What is she saying?


She basically said she believes CBF. That she’d have to be a hell of an actress.


Right. Do you know how hard it would be to tell a fake story, over and over, and have these questions asked, over and over, that are designed to trip you up? She'd have to be some evil genius.


It’s not that hard. This is not a very complex story at all. You guys don’t know enough liars.


But WHY? There is no plausible reason why.


Really? Some people hate Trump so much they ready to shoot themselves, to immigrate to another country. You don't think there are people who can lie just to get rid of Trump?

Because the Republicans didn't want any other witnesses including Mark Judge who has been named in more than one accusation.


Yep. We need more witnesses. Lots more. Mark Judge. The “Leland” girl.

Not to mention she nuked her own life. Why would she do that with a made up story??


Her parents nor other family members have been supporting her. That is very telling. I would say she's been nuking her own life for years. I don't think she's mentally well.


Have Kavansugh’s parents written a letter of support? They grounded him every weekend. Maybe ask them why.

If that's somehow nefarious why would she volunteer it?

She did not want her parents to know what happened. She would have been in a world of trouble for drinking with boys in a house with no adults present. She wanted to pretend that it never happened. She detailed all of this


So she greets him? I'm sorry but I would not say "hello how are you to my attacker"


She was a kid, she didn’t want anyone to know what happened, and she had a long road ahead of being in the same social circle as those boys. She wanted to move forward as if nothing had happened, so saying hi really is not that odd.


I'm sorry but that is total BS.


WHY?! Women stay with physically abusive men EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. They live with them, sleep with them, raise children with them. But she can't say hi to her attacker to avoid the shame and scrutiny of questions?


+1. People are not always rational actors in situations in which abuse or assault has taken place. Which is why most women don't report assaults.

I think the GOP strategy here is to get through her testimony and then give him a chance. Remember how Hill Thomas went. Hill did amazing and then Thomas somehow matched it. “High tech lynching. “

Teach your kids to speak up when they are the target of assault, or witnesses anything that's not right.

Are you people doing this?

Guess what is the BEST way to teach them?

Believe victims who come forward. If we changed our reactions to victims coming forward it would DRAMATICALLY change the reporting stats.

+1,000,000
Well said.


And once more for the people in the back.


How are we supposed to believe the victims when women clearly lie just as often as men? Did you not see the Brian Banks case that was just resolved? He served 6 years in jail for a rape he didn’t commit and had his whole life ruined. That is a good reason to take a step back in these situations I’d say


Women "clearly lie just as often as men" what does that mean? At least 60% of sexual assaults are not even reported. Of the 40% that are, a small percentage are identified as unfounded, of which false allegations are an even more minuscule percentage.

So no, people who report sexual assault (be they women or men) are lying in an incredibly small amount of cases.

Research has also demonstrated that false accusers tend to fit a certain profile as well, once that Ford does not fit. They tend to be young teens coming forward using a false accusation like an "alibi" when they don't want to get into trouble with their parents. They tend to be reports that are filed on behalf of someone, like a parent filing for a young teen. They tend to be people with severe mental illness like schizophrenia and who have trouble distinguishing realities. Etc.

No, I don’t think and UMC educated woman with a husband and 2 kids fits this description. At all.

These are not comparable.
Women stay with their abusers because of lots of reasons - they love them, they have no where to go, they are fearful.

But, for a 15 year old to INITIATE conversation with a boy who allegedly attacked her 6-8 weeks earlier is just not credible.
This is nothing like a woman who has a relationship with an abuser staying with an abuser.
