Game-Changer: Kavanaugh Accuser Linked to Anita Hill Hit Job on Clarence Thomas
Conservative Tribune ^ | September 21st, 2018 | By Cillian Zeal

Posted on 09/22/2018 1:35:07 PM PDT by Mariner

When NeverTrump pundit Erick Erickson suggested that the accusation against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh by Christine Blasey Ford was the result of a PR job, there was both laughter and disdain from the left.

There isn’t much mirth or contempt now that it’s been revealed who Judge Kavanaugh’s accuser has retained.

According to Politico, Christine Blasey Ford — the 51-year-old California psychologist who says the Supreme Court nominee sexually assaulted her while they were in high school in Maryland — is receiving advice from Democrat activist Ricki Seidman.

“Seidman, a senior principal at TSD Communications, in the past worked as an investigator for Sen. Ted Kennedy, and was involved with Anita Hill’s decision to testify against Supreme Court Nominee Clarence Thomas,” Politico reported.

“She also worked as Joe Biden’s communications director during the 2008 general election campaign, after he was named Barack Obama’s running mate. In 2009, according to her online biography, she helped the White House manage the confirmation of Obama’s Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor. Before that, she worked in the Clinton White House as deputy communications director,” the report said.

And that’s not all. When President Ronald Reagan appointed Judge Robert Bork to the nation’s highest court, Seidman played a key role helping kill the appointment.

“As legal director for Norman Lear’s People for the American Way, she was responsible for the infamous attack-ad on the judicial record of Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork,” The Weekly Standard reported in 1996. “She next moved to Senator Edward Kennedy’s office shortly after Clarence Thomas was nominated to the Supreme Court, and she is credited with pressuring the reluctant Anita Hill to come out with her harassment story. When the Judiciary Committee failed to listen, according to David Brock’s ‘The Real Anita Hill,’ Seidman helped leak...

The communists Democrats have almost destroyed Grassley who is acking like a fool. We will lose Kasvanaugh due to the simple minds of a Main Senator and an Alaska Senator with back up of Flake. Sad, but those are the facts. We will be short in the vote if we ever have one. This Ford has the wining combinations of training by powerful communists left team and the simple minded Republicans cannot beat. Wake up America. Hope I am wrong.

In mid-October of 2016 I suddenly sensed that a dramatic change was about to happen in the U.S. political landscape. I've left my pessimism at the curb ever since Election Night 2016. I haven't been wrong on too many big things since then.

And I think you're wrong. :-)

NOW, we see why the Founding Fathers would not let women get involved in politics. There was a reason and it wasn’t “sexist”. It it NOW on full display...on both sides of the UniParty for that matter. I’ll just leave that right here....for now.

The only game changer that matters is when Kavanaugh is confirmed. Anything else is wishful thinking.

No one on the left gives a damn about anything except instant gratification now. Waiting for the next election for an opportunity to vote Trump out of office is not in their plans whatsoever.

Unfortunately, nothing scandalous about it. Balsy-Ford the high school party slut can choose any lawyer she wants, and she chose this one. It doesn’t prove she’s a party slut. We already know that from her yearbook.

No, we are not.

The Republicans are surrendering as fast as they can.

They don’t have the votes.

We have traitors amongst us.

In times of USSC confirmation and Impeachment, there can be no defectors. Yet we have traitors inside the gate.

I don't think it is a game changer, though it is good information for anyone who thinks this whole thing is a sham.

The only ones who DON'T know are the brainless Leftists (Including feminists and many Leftist women) who drink the Kool-Aid.
