[Breaking News] Kavanaugh Classmate Named in Letter Strongly Denies Allegations of Misconduct
Weekly Standard ^ | September 14, 2018 | John McCormick

Posted on 09/14/2018 2:15:40 PM PDT by sitetest

On Friday morning, The New Yorker's Jane Mayer and Ronan Farrow reported on a letter alleging possible sexual misconduct by Brett Kavanaugh while he was a high-school student. According to the New Yorker:

"The woman, who has asked not to be identified, first approached Democratic lawmakers in July, shortly after Trump nominated Kavanaugh. The allegation dates back to the early nineteen-eighties, when Kavanaugh was a high-school student at Georgetown Preparatory School, in Bethesda, Maryland, and the woman attended a nearby high school. In the letter, the woman alleged that, during an encounter at a party, Kavanaugh held her down, and that he attempted to force himself on her. She claimed in the letter that Kavanaugh and a classmate of his, both of whom had been drinking, turned up music that was playing in the room to conceal the sound of her protests, and that Kavanaugh covered her mouth with his hand. She was able to free herself. [...] In a statement, Kavanaugh said, “I categorically and unequivocally deny this allegation. I did not do this back in high school or at any time.”

Kavanaugh’s classmate said of the woman’s allegation, “I have no recollection of that.”

The Kavanaugh classmate quoted in the New Yorker is Mark Judge, a writer in Washington, D.C. Judge spoke to THE WEEKLY STANDARD Friday afternoon, strongly denying that any such incident ever occurred. "It's just absolutely nuts. I never saw Brett act that way," Judge told TWS.

Al Franken fan are you? I imagine you were jealous of him when he grabbed the breasts of a sleeping woman, weren’t you? Your walker would have collapsed if you tried.

They are trying to Alinsky him. Sow doubts. Using Tactics 1, 2, 4, 8 here.

The Left Always Lies.

Saul Alinsky’s Rules from Rules for Radicals

Saul Alinsky describes 24 rules in Rules for Radicals. Of those 24 rules, 13 are rules of “power tactics”:

1. “Power is not only what you have but what the enemy
thinks you have.”

2. “Never go outside the experience of your people.”

3. “Wherever possible go outside of the experience of the
enemy.”

4. “Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.”

5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”

6. “A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.”

7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.”

8. “Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and
actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose.”

9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing
itself.”

10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of
operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.”

11. “If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will
break through into its counterside.”

12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive
alternative.”

13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”

The remaining 11 rules Alinsky describes are concerned with “the ethics of means and ends”:

1. “One’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s personal interest in the issue … Accompanying this rule is the parallel one that one’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s distance from the scene of conflict.”

2. “The judgment of the ethics of means is dependent upon the political position of those sitting in judgment.”

3. “In war the end justifies almost any means.”

4. “Judgment must be made in the context of the times in which the action occurred and not from any other chronological vantage point.”

5. “Concern with ethics increases with the number of means available and vice versa.”

6. “The less important the end to be desired, the more one can afford to engage in ethical evaluations of means.”

7. “Generally success or failure is a mighty determinant of ethics.”

8. “The morality of a means depends upon whether the means is being employed at a time of imminent defeat or imminent victory.”

9. “Any effective means is automatically judged by the opposition as being unethical.”

10. “You do what you can with what you have and clothe it with moral garments.”

11. “Goals must be phrased in general terms like ‘Liberty, Equality, Fraternity,’ ‘Of the Common Welfare,’ ‘Pursuit of Happiness,’ or ‘Bread and Peace.’”

She should be run out of the senate. That these lying, greedy, phony disgusting pigs-of-lawmakers have such power and sway over the lives of all Americans is downright sickening.

No, that would be Al Franken. I’m glad he’s out of office.

The entire democrat party is a criminal organization. It exists to destroy innocent people and to promote an anti-American agenda.

Democrat is the choice of party for the brainwashed! Yet they truly believe their hearts are in the right places for the good and fairness of all mankind as well as the entire planet and universe beyond. Feelings. Nothing more than feelings.

Whever its a republican, they raise the bar and versa vice.

They would have been furious even if their nominee had been caught on film. ‘He was underage! No longer applies! Scarlet Letter!’

Skeptical to begin with, but I don’t care one way or another. A teen is different than a mature male.

When I was a hopped up teen, I got carried away a few times. And heck, the way some kids dance, it looks like girls are pinned on the floor [and they want to be].

I tried to drag a girl into the locker room, not that there was any hope of doing anything there — coaches watched the locker room from an observation booth. Just stupid hormones. I did other stupid things.
And I bet most guys have done stupid things

If it were a demoncrat nominee caught on film, they’d be crying ‘Scarlet Letter! He was underage! He will get therapy for good measure!’

“I’m sure they’re going through Amy Coney Barrett’s elementary school records as we speak.”

Rumor has it that her parents couldn’t get her into the ‘approved’ Pre-School she needed to make anything of herself in this world.

*Rolleyes*

You are 100% correct. But, those of us paying attention, ALWAYS see the ‘Rats overplay their hands.

I cannot WAIT for RBG’s replacement! MAGA! :)

Facts don’t matter when there is an agenda to push.

Partner, u just won the quote of the year with this statement and so true!

The Rats will lie and tell you more lies to push their far left liberal agenda since there is no one to question their lies and allegations.

We have never ever seen anything like the Rats have stooped so low in this election cycle.

Bill Safire was not only a great writer but he had such a quick wit about him that I continue to admire. He mentioned that the criminal Miss Hillary was a "Congenital Liar". He was so correct in mentioning this little fact.

We only need to add that the Far Left MSM and the Rats are a bunch of Congenital Liars and the MSM and all the Rats have lied so much that we do not know when they are telling the truth!

We ain't lying!!!
