Feinstein Statement on Kavanaugh
Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) ^ | Sep 16 2018 | Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.)

Posted on 09/16/2018 5:29:55 PM PDT by mdittmar

Washington—Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) released the following statement:

“It has always been Mrs. Ford’s decision whether to come forward publicly. For any woman, sharing an experience involving sexual assault—particularly when it involves a politically connected man with influence, authority and power—is extraordinarily difficult.

“From the outset, I have believed these allegations were extremely serious and bear heavily on Judge Kavanaugh’s character. However, as we have seen over the past few days, they also come at a price for the victim. I hope the attacks and shaming of her will stop and this will be treated with the seriousness it deserves.

“I support Mrs. Ford’s decision to share her story, and now that she has, it is in the hands of the FBI to conduct an investigation. This should happen before the Senate moves forward on this nominee.”

Not voting is a bad choice.

Find an independent candidate you admire and vote for them if need be.

Or, alternatively, write someone in.

Hmm, how many accusers did they throw at Trump and yet they all fell flat? What should become of them for their false claims?

Now it's been well established that every time Trump is trying to fill a strategic position, these creeps suddenly invent a female who suddenly comes out of nowhere with these huge lies!

There should be huge penalties for these liars in the same way the women who tells lies on men about a fake rape and men's lives are destroyed.

And any attempts to try to discover who and what this psycho is will be called “attacking the poor, traumatized victim”....I wonder if she could get 65 women from the time frame to testify to her character....

The fact that the accuser’s parents were involved in a lawsuit where Kavanaugh’s mother was the judge needs to be heavily tweeted.

Shaming her?

From what I’ve read, this woman has no shame!

Many, many others would or could be prosecuted in the past for their lawbreaking. Every sanctuary city/state official should be prosecuted. It will never happen.

Shouldn't chat too long today but apologize for leaving you hanging last night. A couple other things occurred to me.

I don't know how objective a witness Ms. Blasey-Ford's husband would be (still heresay) so best leave him out of it.

If Kavanaugh and/or his friend remembers being at a party with the accuser, maybe they ought to admit it. Make that it would be important in the matter to know. If they were, surely one of them could name the location, others present and potential witnesses, if there even was such a party and details about the house. Maybe even her parents' foreclosed house when they weren't home.

Finally the radio. A very small detail. You would expect to find one in a bedroom back then. But she was "dragged" into the bedroom and the friend of Kavanaugh allegedly turned up the volume to drown out her protests. Why was the radio already on? Or is it too nit picky?

I do leave my radio on when I leave the room. My daughter doesn't remember ANY of the girls wearing a one-piece bathing suit in the eighties.

I keep hitting the caps lock on this laptop so get tired of typing and constantly fixing stuff.

it’s going to come down to she said, they said, but the real issue is will republicans hold the line.

I can’t remember how many girls I was in bedrooms with in HS at parties and hanging out after school. 97.8% no sex, some making out, many just friends. one on one. Those girls could have said anything and there would be no proof. Just whatever I said against what they said. I never was in BK’s position or worked with girls I went to HS with, but any man could be vulnerable to charges like this if the woman had a bone to pick (no pun intended).

comments noted. you were a wild one. normal. i met my ex when i was 16 so i only messed around w/him until getting a divorce after 11 years. i did have something happen which did affect my whole life. Rejection by a handsome guy i had a serious crush on. So took up w/ex on the rebound. I only made the cause effect connection a year or so ago, percolated up from somewhere. Despite all the therapy I'd had over the years, I got it myself. Enough on that.

Something happened today i can't talk about on the forum. Do you remember who was tried by the Federal Court in the Southern District of New York? Manafort I'm pretty sure. How about Cohen? Anybody else caught in Mueller's web? Are they rough in that court with verdicts? Plaintiff is Commodity Futures Trading Commission asking for jury trial for fraud. Mail and interstate commerce. Can't give any more out on that.
