The Post didn’t publish this because they couldn’t corroborate it. Yet they had no problem piling on against Kavanaugh.
He said/she said.
Sean Hannity read her victim statement on the air today. I believe her. As a man I cannot understand why she did not report that assault when it happened. But I’m a man, and I know a vast majority of rape and assault do not go to the police as they should.
However she did confide in her friends and others last year about what happened so this did not come out of the blue as a total surprise.
I think Fairfax’s best option at this point would be to come out as gay.
Hoist on their own petard.
Sounds much like Cory Booker’s bathroom escapade, except that was a guy who made the accusation. That’s why Cory was so proud to announce that he had a girlfriend.
Anyone want to go through the list of differences?
1) couldn't identify the House vs. knew *exactly* where it happened
2) touching over clothes alleged vs. oral-genital contact
3) accuser giving her name publicly UP FRONT rather than indirectly through a partisan legislator
4) accused in one case had passed NUMEROUS background checks with nothing similar on his record vs. (unknown?)
5) accuser of Kavanaugh part of all-out assault includin women dressed up as fictional characters, vs. released through a top law firm
6) accuser of Kavanaugh unavailable to committee (even though they were secretly in-state) vs. formal, specific press release
7) accuser of Kavanaugh during confirmation hearings vs. no particular political event
8) Kavanaugh received numerous testimonials in his favor from women who had worked with him for decades; vs. Fairfax quoted after accusation as saying "F*** that B***!"
On the other hand,
8) both accusers waited decades to come forward
9) both accusers are academic women from California
She went there with him and returned his kiss. Did she really think it would stop there? Not believable right there. I am not defending what might have happened, but HER actions and reactions in this event certainly didn’t help her safety. Women need to be smarter than this.
#DemToo
Sorry, I’m not buying it. If I’m going to force myself on a woman rule #1, I’m not getting any part of my body in close proximity to her teeth. Unless he was holding some weapon to her head, or she was tied up, she could have stopped the assault in a nano-second. You’re not forcibly restraining her, and you’ve put a very sensitive part of your anatomy where she could do extreme damage. That dog won’t hunt
So, is she saying, “We kissed and rubbed a little and I grabbed his turgid member through his pants and said “Oooh, that’s nice!” and he suddenly assumed, for no reason, I wanted it to go further and then he proceeded to go farther...?
Fairfax is now claiming that she kept in touch with him. It would be interesting to see the records of that; it doesn’t mean she’s lying, but his first denial was like she never existed, and then he said it was consensual, and now he says they had an ongoing relationship.
