Earlier this summer, Christine Blasey Ford wrote a confidential letter to a senior Democratic lawmaker alleging that Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her more than three decades ago, when they were high school students in suburban Maryland. Since Wednesday, she has watched as that bare-bones version of her story became public without her name or her consent, drawing a blanket denial from Kavanaugh and roiling a nomination that just days ago seemed all but certain to succeed.
Now, Ford has decided that if her story is going to be told, she wants to be the one to tell it.
Speaking publicly for the first time, Ford said that one summer in the early 1980s, Kavanaugh and a friend — both “stumbling drunk,” Ford alleges — corralled her into a bedroom during a gathering of teenagers at a house in Montgomery County.
While his friend watched, she said, Kavanaugh pinned her to a bed on her back and groped her over her clothes, grinding his body against hers and clumsily attempting to pull off her one-piece bathing suit and the clothing she wore over it. When she tried to scream, she said, he put his hand over her mouth.
“I thought he might inadvertently kill me,” said Ford, now a 51-year-old research psychologist in northern California. “He was trying to attack me and remove my clothing.”

The moment she wrote the accusation to a politician in opposition to a candidate, she lost the fiction of anomymity. It is now up to her to prove the almost forty year old allegations. She is a “professor” so her job is not in jeopardy, and the first problem is the drunken state she was in. The second is how she remembers it was Judge Kavanaugh. The third is does she have any contemporary documentation. Those questions are how you get to a point at which you can ascertain whose story is closer to the truth. It is not a he said she said, but because of the timing, extraordinary claims need extraordinary proof. Or at least some proof.

The real and only question is, who’s paying her to lie?
anita hill II
same playbook, fake but serious....
metoo fakery?
Oh B.S.
This whole thing has been planned and coordinated from the start.
No one is forcing her. No one knew her name, other than a few Leftist dems, until today.
Like Anita Hill she is coming in at the 11th hour to destroy a man by any means possible.
By God the Republicans better lock and load. If they run from this one the take-down of President Trump will begin.
This guy sounds like Bill Clinton.
Good thing people had the good since not to elect that rapist.
good sense that is.
professor? so there is a 98% chance she is a leftist democrat.
IF this is a lie, is it a destroy a life/reputation to protect leftist socialism? (roe?)
Twice
See most recent post.
The democrat party has operatives all over willing to take one for the team.
this attack was expected that is why the support letter was in the hearing. It is the dem playbook. Destroy at all costs. Power at all costs.
May be off topic, and I haven’t even read this thread yet, but here goes:
It IS about sexual assault.
Let’s not lose our voter base here. Let’s not cut off our noses to spite our faces, shall we?
#walkaway (I watch them on YT while still available)
people from all walks of life are making these videos. Men women,Gay, Straight, People of color,young, old, Muslims, every walk of life.
My walk away moment started around the time I got this unbelievable education on FR in 1999. I consider myself very blessed.
There goes her chance for a job at Burlington Northern.
Lying about sexual abuse/assault/misconduct is the norm for leftists these days.
It comes from 2 motivations.
1. Every leftist needs to feel victimized by someone.
2. The cynical left knows full well that the hand-wringing TruCon will fall for any accusation against their own side. Without question. No thinking involved by the TruCon. The left makes an accusation, it is *always* taken as true. Therefore, a non-commiescum can be eliminated by the left with a simple false statement.
Blue Dress or GTFO.
BTW, ask her about Keith Ellison (contemporary 911 calls).

yeah let’s see the lie detector questions. the statement is worthless without.
does Kavanaugh want a chance to knock this all down like Clarence Thomas did?
Check must’ve cleared.
