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.”

How about stop thinking this could be true, or even thinking this is the end.How about thinking this is B/S, no party, no forcing himself, no nothing.
They the left do this all the time. Thomas, Cain, Newt, etc, and our side needs to just ignore them and carry on
I believe they are by nature not stable.
The killer in this story is that she went to Feinstein rather than to a member of a judicial review board where it would have been investigated fairly and dispassionately.
Her claim that the event ruined her life demonstrates that she has the “its everyone’s fault but mine” attitude.
Assume for the sake of argument that her story is true, and I doubt it. She was drunk, they were drunk, nothing happened, they were laughing at a big joke, her clothes stayed on....
A stable confident person would would remember it as a crazy party that they should never have attended, be happy it went no farther and let it go as one of those things that we learn from and will never happen again.
As one who can remember a few crazy parties.....
The more I read about the, the less credible it becomes. Have Democrats no shame? Is Feinstein this desperate in her re-election to entangle herself in this pathetic embarrassment?
She came out with the story now because, after starting the whole story, she felt her “privacy being chipped away”. That does not pass the ridiculous test. Plus she has a prominent dem lawyer. So yeah, she’s a set up. Probably some silly teenage horseplay at a party being turned into attempted rape 30 years later.
When Diane Feinstein had a chance to remove a serial sexual abuser from office she voted against defending women and the highest office in the land. That is correct, Feinstein voted against impeaching Bill Clinton. There were allegations of rape where the victim told people immediately after the incident, there were credible allegations of sexual harassment. Despite all the evidence Dear Diane had not trouble voting no to impeachment. Now all of a sudden a supposed attempted rape allegation over 30 years old not report for over 30 years is a problem? Just incredible! Of course nobody will embarrass Feinstein asking her about this. Simply BS.
It doesn’t surprise me that an empty head can put anything they want into it.
The reverberations of group think has created a vision she thinks is real.
“....And she’s a prof? Many college professors are the most unscrupulous around. There is hardly any reason to ever believe Democrat Leftists....”
Yeah, I can remember back in the day when the title of “professor” actually stood for something. The title has been destroyed by liberalism, the BORG of this century.
There is NO reason to ever believe any liberal. They’re insane and lie more than a muzzie.
Expert liars can pass polygraph tests. An honest person should never take one voluntarily.
Ummm .. she IS a psych professor. They are usually the psych-est of ‘em all.
research psychologist=certifiable
I can’t access the article without signing up for the Wash Post. How does she claim she escaped from all this without a scratch? And how did she get into the bedroom?
She has notes written years ago at a psychologist office. She probably will be in front of the senate this week.
Whatever.
If she didn’t call police, it didn’t happen.
.
Notes about her imaginary encounters.
That stuff is pretty common.
.
‘Just pointing out an unconnected reality...’
I see; your post makes no point at all. then...
And she promptly reported the alleged attempted rape by Kavanaugh to the authorities on the day it happened, right?
Right?
Here is the point of this propaganda from the Washington comPost:
“a nomination that just days ago seemed all but certain to succeed.”
They are trying to make it sound as though this BS allegation is reason enough not to confirm the nominee.
However, everyone..absolutely everyone including the usual shaking-fist, red-faced leftist screams...are saying this accusation and how it was presented was a disgusting attempt to undermine the nominee.
They are at war with us, even if you don’t want to be at war with them.
“There were other witnesses, apparently. As well as the therapy session notes, and the other guy’s book.”
And apparently no police report.
Witness to the act? The man that’s been reported to have been there says it didn’t happen.
