    I haven't seen or heard this addressed, didn't hear Ford questioned about it at the hearing, yet it seems a fair point to raise and one that is rather damning when you think about. That is, of course, if Ford is telling the truth. And it is this: what kind of person would leave a friend behind at a small gathering where, according to your own words, a guy tried to rape you and you even feared for your life? Why wouldn't you have gone straight to your friend and told her something like "Look, we have to leave now,...

  • Any Stumblers out there?

For those not familiar with StumbleUpon (SU) it is basically a way to surf the internet via Word-of-Mouth recommendations.

    When we find ourselves in a war we can't win, we must either capitulate or change it to the kind of war we can win. If we find and destroy the perpetrators, we only make them martyrs and guarantee that others will attack us again. But if we absolutely defeat their goals and punish those who support and protect them, we can put an end to this sort of thing once and for all.
