The arc of justice they speak of is made up BS?

Yes, yes it is.

Takes two to tango

That only reflects badly on the current electorate and the LSM drumbeat endlessly flogging your fabrication. In real life contemporaneous witness and circumstances showed you for the lying, devious, evil person you actually are.

Notice she said "my story," and not "the truth."

I watched the hearings. She was lying through her teeth to destroy an honorable man.

Here is what kills me about Liberals, They hoot and howl about keeping the Gov out of the bedroom and THEN when it suits them they drag the bedroom out into the streets and demand LAWS! The laws are not even connected to morality
Now we have men marrying men, Women marrying women that think they are men.

I think the 10 commandments is all we need.

Jesus return soon

Amen.

If Hill had any decency she would shut her lying mouth.

Sorry, Anita, but no.

I covered the case (for a very minor publication.) I have investigated. I know several people who worked with Thomas and Hill. All of them are aligned with Justice Thomas against her.

At least one senator publicly identified her story as perjury (and he had been a prosecutor.) My investigation showed that she was put up to it by aides in Ted Kennedy’s office.

As has been reported elsewhere, she made virtually the same allegations — down to the Coke can — against a prior employer. (I believe that it may well be true of the prior employer.)

So, no, the story wouldn’t be more believed today.

I heard she used a case that Thomas taught in his class that she took.

We don’t determine truth by how many people BELIEVE something.

Is she still at Oklahoma State ?

No. She belongs to OU. Or at least did at the time.
