How is it “triple downing” when you’ve been right all along? Being a sore loser is so unbecoming. Be well. |
Interesting that you’ve posted more than anyone else with your “BK fan girls” nonsense. Looks like you’re enjoying yourself the most here! |

Even WaPo is reporting that CBF's witness and long time friend Leland Keyser "comes down on his side". Comment section isn't happy over there. Don't like having their safe space threatened.
Keyser said she doesn’t remember many small gatherings like the one Ford described, nor does she remember hanging out much with Georgetown Prep students, which Kavanaugh was. She maintains that she didn’t even know who Kavanaugh was back then, after reviewing pictures and maps. “Those facts together I don’t recollect, and it just doesn’t make any sense,” Keyser said. Keyser also said she spoke with many people who “wanted me to remember something different” — suggesting that there was pressure on her to toe the line — and that she told the FBI about that. Some of Keyser’s more interesting comments, though, are about Ford and Kavanaugh as people. And then she concluded of her role in the whole process: “So the bottom line is, you just don’t screw with the process here, I don’t think. That’s my firm belief." So bottom line is that the she doesn't believe this story. Says it doesn't make sense and says "you just don't screw with the process". https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/09/17/key-witness-brett-kavanaugh-saga-comes-down-his-side/?noredirect=on |
Totally agree with her and find it brave that she’s not letting Ford’s attorneys bully her into a false testimony. She’ll probably be the one receiving death threats for her refusal to comply. |
If you had asked me six months ago if I socialized a lot during high school, I would have said no, my parents were strict and I didn’t really go out much. Then my mother gave me a box of memorabilia from high school including several journals. Guess what?! I went out to small get togethers a lot, like two school nights and two weekend days, and when I read the journal, I didn’t remember several of the people I wrote about interactions with at these parties. High school was just twenty years ago for me, but I obviously didn’t need those inconsequential memories, so my brain pruned them. Memory is a funny thing. Trauma fixes memories for the people who suffer them; Blasey Ford remembering the night someone attempted to rape her and her friend not remembering is actually a perfect illustration of this. Sorry if my common sense disrupts your safe space. |
Death threats are more in the wheelhouse of nutty goopers, as is the gaslighting by the other goopers claiming such a thing never happens. |
I graduated HS long before you did. If I had gone to a party with a friend, was the only other girl there, and that friend ran out of the house without explanation and I was supposed to be her ride home, you damn well better believe I would remember that.

Liberals are upset that CBF's best friend from high school does not believe her story and won't stand by this blatant attempt at smearing Kavanaugh.
I also have to wonder how much Brian Fallon's group, Demand Justice, is behind this most recent effort. |
Um, ok. Thanks for your anecdote? -DP |
Hey, you’re welcome! I know it’s nice to have examples that illustrate the nature of memory and I was happy to provide a relevant example. Lots of people, (like 7:17, for example!) are convinced that memory is perfect and they take any challenge to their memory as an attack on their intelligence. It’s not. It’s memory, a great system full of bugs and evolutionary adaptations. Strangely they 100% believe Leland’s lack of recollection and disbelieve Christine’s recollection entirely. It’s curious, that. |
Speaking of nutty, it’s sad you actually believe this drivel. And your immature moniker for Republicans is really so telling. |
Actually, 7:17 is correct. If what Ford claims is true, I would also have remembered being the only girl left at a small gathering, and wondering where my best friend went, why she ditched me, and how on earth she got home. I would remember worrying about her and frantically calling her, either from the house party or when I got home. I would remember going home without her. However, Keyser remembers none of that. Nothing. Pretty curious, that.

You know what's funny? You believe CBF's lack of memory regarding key details (like how she got home, for one) but disbelieve Leland Keyser's statement that she would have certainly remembered an incident in which she was one of two girls at an incident in which CBF left abruptly with no explanation. You think Keyser would not have asked CBF about this later? Of course she would have. But, she didn't because...... IT NEVER HAPPENED! |
The FBI's not returning the phone call of a person whose BEST input to an investigation MIGHT BE a list of people who might have been at a party that happened 30 years ago, and that said person did not attend, does not mean that the investigation is a sham. I think some people think that the purpose of an investigation is to confirm what the complaining party has asserted. That's unfair, unrealistic, and pretty absurd, because it assumes that the assertion is true, and that the investigator must continue looking for and talking with any potential witness who can confirm the allegation. |
Least BK has Fan Girls. The liberals don't trust women with the story and have to push a member of the white patriarchy into the fray to defend their sacred honor. Thanks, Max. |
