“The Howie Carr Show,” broadcast every weekday from 3 PM to 7 PM Eastern time, is talking about this now on his radio show.

nah.

I think she is just making it up as an issue and agenda item.

Stop believing politically motivated liars.

Plausible or not, I think badly of him for raising it. It merely makes it possible for someone else to be smeared in public with zero chance of proving the truth. I don’t care WHO is accused!

If the circumstances mean there is no possibility of discovering the truth, the accuser needs to shut up! She had a chance to make the accusation back when witnesses could have been interviewed or physical evidence could have been collected. Once that time passed, without a word from her, her time was UP!

Suppose some guy who lived in the same city as the accuser said she had screwed him with a dildo when he was 6 and she was 17. No evidence. Doesn’t know more than the year. Can’t say where or provide any possible evidence. No contemporary accounts.

Should he be believed? Should he be given a public forum to accuse her? Does the seriousness of the charge - child rape - mean he has no requirement for evidence?

Or is it only WOMEN who get to destroy MEN without evidence?

If a woman conservative gets nominated by Trump, I think we’ll find out any CONSERVATIVE can be accused without evidence. While Bill Clinton and Hillary “Bimbo Eruption” Clinton are given sainthood.

I would, too -- except this Whelan guy has a long political/legal career in D.C. and isn't just some political hack. This theory is highly speculative on its face but couldn't possibly have come out of nowhere.

From his Wikipedia entry:

From 2001 until 2004, Whelan served as Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General for the United States Department of Justice's Office of Legal Counsel, advising the White House Counsel's Office, the Attorney General and other senior DOJ officials, and Departments and agencies throughout the executive branch on difficult and sensitive legal questions.

This tells me Whelan and Kavanaugh know each other very well. I suspect there is more to this "theory" than just wild speculation.

Interestingly, Garrett seems to have signed a letter from alumni supporting Kavanaugh to the Judiciary Committee, and is apparently a middle school teacher in Atlanta.

Actually, this is SOMETHING.

This is how Twitter works.

The Twitter Lefties are absolutely SOILING THEMSELVES in foaming, spittle-flecked rage.

So now we bring in another possible assaulter and tarnish his good name. This Kavanaugh accuser is a liar and a long time democrat far left activist. If she had any kind of forced sexual activity, it could have been with a female and that is the root cause of her mental problems. These photos do not seem to me to be at all that similar. And in bathing suits there is probably no doubt who each is. Also, it is possible, if not probable, that no assault took place at all.

If that’s the case, then it would not shock me to see him come forward and admit to something related to this incident — perhaps while denying some of the details of Ford’s allegation.

I was just summarizing the Twitter thread.

If that is true, I hope this man does the right thing and comes forward. I know that’s not likely, as it would then begin the destruction of his private life of his family.
Even if guilty, the man may have honestly forgotten about an event he never thought of as being a sexual assault.

He's setting the trap for #MeScrew.

It’s an interesting theory but it comes up short one pool.

Probably?

That is about as substantive as Ford's allegation.

This issue does NOT need more unsupported allegations and probabilities from the peanut gallery.

Ed Whelan just happens to have the floor plan of the house that Kavanaugh's doppleganger lived in.

This isn't just a shot across the Senate Lefties' bow.

He was a minor and probably drunk at the time.

So was SHE....

Maybe we should find their parents and punish both sets of them for not doing a good job raising their kids.

Someone call Child Protective Services /sarc

If P/R means powder room, there’s one downstairs so why did she go upstairs if this is the house?
