NEW YORK — It started as a series of phone calls among old high-school friends and ended up embroiling 65 women in the firestorm over a sexual assault allegation that could shape the Supreme Court.
In a matter of hours, they all signed onto a letter rallying behind high court nominee and their high school friend Brett Kavanaugh as someone who “has always treated women with decency and respect.” And they signed up, whether they anticipated it or not, for becoming a focus of scrutiny themselves.
The powerful strength-in-numbers statement, offered to bolster Kavanaugh’s denial of a claim that he attacked a girl at a party during their high school years, has drawn questions from journalists, social media skeptics, even Hollywood figures.
How well did the women know him? How could a statement and 65 signatures come together so fast after outlines of the allegation first surfaced publicly? And after subsequently hearing the details and learning that his accuser was a woman some of them knew, do they stand by their declaration?
Yes, say more than a dozen signers who have since spoken to The Associated Press or other media outlets.
“Brett wouldn’t do that in a million years. I’m totally confident. That would be completely out of character for him,” said Paula Duke Ebel. She said she interacted with Kavanaugh hundreds of times while they were students in a close-knit constellation of single-sex Catholic schools around Washington in the 1980s.

Yet ANYONE that comes out in support of Dr. Ford gets an automatic “Awww what an amazing person such braveness to come forward”
Why this really screws with the Left, is that what they took months to orchestrate, could be challenged in a couple of days by 65 women.
65 to 1 odds, pretty much sucks the wind out of their scandal skowl’s sails.

*Questions
and that ONE accuser was the class SLUT who slept with the football team. And the MSM believed her like the pollsters who stated Hitlery was ahead by 50 points of Trump before election night...
Of course they did. The press is the gravest threat to civil society in America.
I would note that Holton Arms is not one of those schools. It is private but not Catholic. Blasey should have thought about that before trying to single handedly take down an honorable man.
Words cannot describe how much I respect their action.
These people in the press know how much time and effort takes to coordinate lies, so they are flabbergasted that the truth only requires a few seconds.
Solution is to keep women out of politics entirely.
I agree. They have convinced themselves that everyone thinks like they do, or at least the clear majority. This flies in the face of that.
So cool hugh...
