California professor Christine Ford claims Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her: 'It derailed me'
Fox News ^ | 9/16/2018 | Greg Re

Posted on 09/16/2018 12:06:55 PM PDT by Lazamataz

The woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault came forward with her explosive allegations on Sunday, saying the supposed attack "derailed me substantially for four or five years" and claiming that the episode rendered her "unable to have healthy relationships with men."

The woman, Christine Ford, is a professor at Palo Alto University, according to The Washington Post, which published her account on Sunday. Her decision to go public caps a whirlwhind week that began when Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., sent shockwaves through Washington by releasing a statement saying she turned over information about Kavanaugh from an anonymous accuser to the FBI.

Ford, a 51-year-old registered Democrat who has published in academic journals and trains students in clinical psychology, described the alleged incident on Sunday, saying it occurred at a Maryland house gathering. Ford claimed she headed upstairs to a bathroom when she was suddenly pushed onto a bed, as rock-and-roll music blared.

I’m just pointing out obvious political implications.

You can ignore them if you want to but they’re out there.

And if it’s not rape, the Rats wouldn’t be going to the length of digging up a. alleged forty year old incident.

One thing’s for sure. Kavanaugh scares the living crap out of the left but then again, they’d do the exact same thing or worse to any Trump SC pick. They don’t care who’s life the ruin... And all over filthy politics. What total scumbags.

Sounds to me like Ford spoke of two separate incidents to her therapist. One at 15, another late teens.

From WaPo...”Notes from an individual therapy session the following year, when she was being treated for what she says have been long-term effects of the incident, show Ford described a “rape attempt” in her late teens.”

She’s a psychologist.

Psychologists spend most of their time trying to convince people that they were abused sometime in their past, even if they can’t remember it ever happening. Their favorite target is some uncle.

They also convince children that someone has abused them. They use little dolls they buy from sex shops to convince kids that daddy or uncle Frank touched them in the genitals, which is anywhere between the neck and the toes.

Well, this attact strategy worked very well against Judge Roy Moore, the Neo-Marxists are going to use it every time they can.
Ware the Moore alligations ever proven? What was the last thing we evet heard about that incident?
Nothing thats what.

The damage is done.
Kavanaugh will not be affirmed. Soft between the ears Repub Senators will bale on him. The silence will be deafening on the Repub side. They’ll be bombarded with questions like “Do you still support Kavanaugh after these explosive alligations!!!” And they will slink away like scared children.

Won’t matter who Trump nominates next, the same thing will happen.

Here's a point that occurred to me.

She claims that the 2012 therapist notes were wrong, and that there were four boys at the party, but only two in the bedroom.

Hang on for a tick.

How many big parties in 1982 at nice house in Maryland ONLY HAVE FOUR BOYS AT THE WHOLE PARTY??!?

AND HOW COME THE OTHER TWO BOYS WEREN'T AWARE OF THE ACTIVITIES???!??

There is a great big hole you can drive a Mack truck through, right there.

Dig deep enough in a man’s past and you’ll find something to hang him with.

That’s what they’ve done even if it turns out to be implausible.

The professor didn’t remember who’s house the attack occurred in. Total BS! That is one fact she’d remember.

It’s interesting how she described Bret’s school as “an eletist boys school” when she went to an “elitist girls school” - Holden Arms.

——Kavanaugh will not be affirmed. ——

Yes, he will...

Because Trump doesn’t lose these types of fights...

Correct. This sounds like a repressed memory, that may have been invented, no crime, no police report, no anything.

She told her therapist, - just add that to the “I am a victim” mantra.

Her story sucks, and Feinstein knew it but lacked the courage to ditch it. Add this to the previous MTF actions by her Democratic colleagues and no wonder they lose elections.

“People tend to fabricate when manic”

She’s delusional all right. Now that Kavanagh has risen to prominence she wishes it had happened and has convinced herself it did, Even as a faux psychologist she should understand confabulation.

This is deliberate ploy on part of DEMS hoping to run out the clock before the election.

Was he a minor when this occurred? I.e., in HS under age of 18...Not sure if it makes any difference legally, but egads—she is saying she was afraid for her life?

Highly doubt it...

Lot of hyperbole going on, and very deliberate timing.

From the article:

Ford claimed she headed upstairs to a bathroom when she was suddenly pushed onto a bed, as rock-and-roll music blared.

However, Ford told The Post she did not recall exactly who owned the house, how she came to be at the house, or how the gathering was arranged. She remembered only that the house was in Montgomery County, near a country club, and that parents were not present.

So how does one get from the bathroom to being pushed on a bed? She was at an unchaperoned party...of her own choice...tho does not want to say...Sounds like she was drinking a lot if she does not remember where she was how she got from bathroom to bedroom, etc.... If this was such a seminal moment in her life, seems to me she would remember...I have a few very vivid high school memories and I remember where I was, who I was with and when...Sheesh...

I would like to hear Kavanaugh’s response...If indeed there is a story to tell, I suspect his side would be quite different!
