Kavanaugh, accuser to testify publicly on Monday
The Hill ^ | 09/17/2018 | Jordain Carney

Posted on 09/17/2018 3:23:05 PM PDT by SpeedyInTexas

Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and the woman accusing him of sexual crimes during a party when the two were teenagers will testify in public on Monday.

The public hearing could be pivotal to Kavanaugh's confirmation, which was on a glide path until Christine Blasey Ford came forward publicly with her accusations on Sunday.

... sexual crimes ...

Here's what her statement boils down to ...

A 17 year old boy, with the help of a friend, tried to get the shirt off of a 15 yr old girl and failed.

What crime was committed there? If two 17 yr old boys couldn't get the shirt off of a 15 yr old girl then they obviously took "no" for an answer. What jurisdiction in the U.S., then or now, would charge anyone with a crime for that?

Another week? Why are they rewarding this filth?

This is nuts.

They are trying to keep him from joining in October.

Can he join mid-session does anyone know?

It’ll be neat if they have those 26 women who vouched for him and said he wasn’t at that party either to show up.

I seriously doubt there even was a party, but I expect the GOP to grill her on that subject, i.e. whose house, address, date, time, who else was there, etc.

If they don't, shame on them.

This woman’s case must be particularly hopeless, if even Gloria Allred won’t touch it.

I’ll bet they had a dozen women lined up just like this, one for every potential SCOTUS candidate.

Makes you wonder since her brother was employed with that GPS Fusion company.

Guess they need time to get their “stories” right.

Interesting Comments on Chrissie Ford from Heavy.com

FWIW—

Lukas Statler September 17th, 2018
I was in the same class as “Chrissie” Blasey (1984). She went to Holton Arms–the sister school to my school, Landon School for Boys. She was well known for her sexual escapades, some of them quite disturbing.... Like the famous “bj” car where in the back of a darkened station wagon she .... on multiple young men. Or the time she took on most of the football team. Her nickname was Chrissie Blowsey–

I’ll leave it at that. She was also a very manipulative and vindictive person. So we all need to take her allegations with more than a grain of salt. she was a knock-down, drag-out slut all through High School. I know–I was there, graduated in the same Class of 1984. So how can we trust her?

Again, FWIW.

Has Christine Ford made false accusations before? Wonder what the attack on the local judge was all about? Anyone familiar with Palo Alto politics - Santa Clara County & its judges?

the entire story is a lie stop giving it life by trying to diminish it by saying “it’s not a crime or a big deal”
