Lindsey Graham: If Ford Had No Intention Of Coming Forward, Why’d She Take A Polygraph

Lindsey Graham: If Ford Had No Intention Of Coming Forward, Why’d She Take A Polygraph In Early August?(FULL TITLE)

’ve written half a dozen posts about the WaPo story since Sunday and feel embarrassed that I missed this simple but salient point. My focus has been on the fact that Christine Blasey Ford approached Democrats — and the Post itself — back in July with her story, then clammed up all the way through Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing. Only at the eleventh hour, after the letter she sent to Dianne Feinstein mysteriously leaked last week, did she decide to enter the fray, she says. It seemed … strange that someone who volunteered her information to Democrats months ago would then resolutely refuse to let them so much as identify her in order to use it effectively.

But note the fine print in the WaPo article. It makes sense that Ford would take a polygraph once she had resolved to come forward and speak to the Post. But according to the paper, that didn’t happen last week. She took the polygraph in early August, weeks before the Feinstein letter broke big in the media and ostensibly all but forced her into public view.

If she had every intention of remaining silent, why was she taking elaborate professional measures to shore up her credibility weeks before the letter emerged?

Clearly Graham is treating the timing of the polygraph as evidence that this really was an orchestrated late hit on Kavanaugh that had been in the works for awhile. (He wonders who paid for the polygraph too.) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~He's right!

She only passed a polygraph question that a summary of what happened is accurate. We have no idea of whether or not Kavanaugh is specifically mentioned in that summary.

You know whaf happens when its over.

Democrats won’t t press on with it. And the fake news media will drop it now that there are no longer new committee hearings.

As Foghorn Leghorn would say, “Son, it’s really over.”

I’m thinking that Ford didn’t expect the dive into her personal life and all the things they found that make her look like a hack.

Rumor is she sent the same letter regarding Gorsuch, who went to the same school at the same time as Kavanaugh.

How ironic it would be if Lindsey turned out to be the most macho of all on the committee!

Exactly. And why did she write a statement and give it to Congresswoman Eshoo?

As Jeanine Pirro has said; "If you're going to make the accusation but not willing to subject yourself to questions, then you should suffer the consequence of filing a false charge."

The woman is a research psychologist. If anyone knows how to beat a polygraph, that’s who it would be...

“Rumor is she sent the same letter regarding Gorsuch”

I expect Soros set her up with a Word template with “Mister X” as a placeholder. When duty called, all she had to do was a search-and-replace with a specific name, print it out, and send it off.

But was it even a real polygraph? Should could have just polygraphed her breasts like Stormy if anything.

Yes she did, that’s why her social media was scrubbed clean.

= = = = = = = = = = =
(Supposedly) even Whoraldo Rivera spoke out agin her...

If you remember the ‘old’ Graham - he was a bulldog as a Congressman and the clintoon impeachment hearings...

Got to the Senate and damn near morphed into a lib pacifist...Guess it is harder to ‘hide’ amongst 100 than 500....

Since McStain assumed room temp, LG has almost got his spine back.

BUT it will be a while before he should be ‘trusted’...

Doubt it.

This was brought up as a “wouldn’t it be funny if...” scenario and now people are saying it happened.

The internet is foolery.

Because, little Linda, she is a shill for the Democrats who once again demonstrated
they are at war with a gutless party of damned Surrender Monkeys - the Republicans.
Her allegations were dismissed by the FBI.

SHE and her vicious handler, Feinstein, should have been dismissed by Grassley, the arch surrender monkey.

If they get away with this, every future Republican appointee AND CANDIDATE will be similarly atake by bogus liars, alleging problems in the past AND. LEGITIMATE complaints BY REAL victims treated with suspicion.
