Having her on the stand, setting forth a timeline and saying who else was at the party, the time and place of the party, the occasion, and being subjected to cross-examination, facts that can be checked, witnesses that can also be examined, will reveal the truth or lack of truth of the story before the public. There are some pretty good lawyers in the Senate with an R after their names, and they’re more experienced examining witnesses than she is being a witness. Oath does not matter, you’re right. But leaving the whole thing as an unsubstantiated inuendo will feed the Alinsky-ite fire. In the eyes of the American public, the Anita Hill testimony, when it was finished, vindicated Clarence Thomas. I remember blacks telling me how infuriated they were at the treatment of Thomas by the Dems. Sunshine mitigates Alinsky mildew.
I disagree. This is about political manipulation and there is nothing to defend. Anita Hill bumper stickers were around for at least a decade after the trials.
Time for hyper Alinsky counter tactics by the conservatives.
Not going on defense and again letting the leftists call the tune.
