a remodeling of her and her husband’s home..and when she wanted the second door her husband was concerned and that’s when she blurted out her traumatic experience to him. No idea what the second door signifies, she never said in her statement or testimony.

Of course. You understand how the game is played. Even with infinitely more carefully conducted examinations, there is a subjective aspect in reading the reaction display.

Ford added nothing to her prior statements. She wants Mark Judge, who said he doesn’t remember, to tell her the date. She’s now been shown to have lied.

In a normal case, with a burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt, there is no way she would prevail. TV clowns keep saying how powerful and emotional and credible she is. It’s nauseating.

A couple of election cycles=decades of sound jurisprudence?

Besides, I'm not even sure this cuts against Republicans. Did you read the S.E. Cupp op-ed in the NY Daily News?

“CNN and MSNBC (and Chris Wallace) have already finished off Kavanaugh.”

He won’t get the support of their 346 viewers

She’s a nutcase, and was all over the place, I wish someone had asked her how many parties she went to that summer. Maybe someone is getting a quick affidavit from Mark Judge on when he worked at Safeway. Remember she is under oath today. She would not want that polygraph contents entered into evidence.

The only issue is does she have enough time remaining to really nail her.

Motive is always critical. She needs to get into Ford's political history - AND SOON!

Huh?
Depends on whose house it was.

Taboo?
I don’t think so. Maybe an adult fancy dinner party but still... I don’t see that.

Wow, the thread was at 600 when I lef and now it’s doubled.

I have been screaming at the radio.

This traumatized her for all these years??? She is putting womankind back 1000 years. She admits this was the worst thing that ever happened to her. Geez Louise is she lucky.

Almost every woman I know has suffered far far worse in terms of sexual assaults. She is making me absolutely ill.

And the Dems calling her so brave for coming forward and being heard and how she deserves justice!!!!???? DO THEY REALIZE THAT IF THIS HAD BEEN A FULL RAPE AT KNIFEPOINT the statute of limitation has run out and there could be no justice???!!!! Doesn’t she get that???? NO,OTHER RAPE VICTIM GETS JUSTICE THIS LONG PAST (though they should).

And she wasn’t raped! A kid groped her through her clothing!!!!

Wise words from our own FReeper historian LS (Larry):

1) For some reason, @rushlimbaugh was initially wrong on his “GOP will lose everything if K isn’t confirmed” and recanted 2 days later. Now he’s back to GOP doesn’t realize they are in a hearing, not a deposition. They absolutely do. All they wanted was to get lies on record.

2) I . . . WE . . . wanted a Sam Watterson, slicing and dicing the crying little Edsel. We all know that would have cost them what little PR they had left. So instead they appear to have decided to focus solely on the “undecided” senators with enough evidence . . .

3) to allow Flakey and Tom Collins to give Judge K the benefit of the doubt. 4) Not sure, but I’m guessing Judge K will get a full summary of Mitchell’s Q&A and her observations before he testifies.

4)Take this to the bank: GOP/Mitchell/Senators will NOT use the “liar” word one time. This is “gosh, it’s horrible this happened to you by someone else, and we’re sorry, but your memory just doesn’t appear quite right that it was Judge K.”

"The door issues sounds more like she wanted a separate entrance for the students and other classes she holds rather than drudge through her house...esepcially if she’s using that area for a tax write off."

Bingo!
