Christine Blasey Ford Will Drive Across Country Because She Doesn’t Like Airplanes
Hot Air ^ | 21 Sep 2018 | John Sexton

Posted on 09/21/2018 4:35:26 PM PDT by mandaladon

Earlier today Allahpundit looked at the negotiations taking place between Christina Blasey Ford and the Judiciary Committee. The GOP agreed to push the date to Wednesday but is requiring that Ford testify first. A Politico story published today points to one additional factor which is apparently motivating Ford to push the date of the hearing back as far as possible: She plans to drive cross country to the hearing in Washington, DC.

The GOP has been told that Ford does not want to fly from her California home to Washington, according to the Republican senator, which means she may need to drive across the country to make the hearing. Ford has reportedly told friends she is uncomfortable in confined spaces, indicating a physical difficulty in making the trip by plane.

At first blush, this really sounds like a stunt. There are already people flying banners of support behind airplanes in northern California. Now Blasey is going to drive cross-country in what sounds an awful lot like a politician’s bus tour. No doubt we’ll be seeing excited tweets from people who encounter her at every gas stop along the way and probably a map showing her current location on

But last night, CNN published a story saying Ford’s claustrophobia has been known to her friends for years though they only recently learned she blamed it on her alleged assault at age fifteen:

So DeVarney and another friend have known about her discomfort in confined spaces but Ford only connected that to the alleged assault when she told her friend about it for the first time last month.

Or later if she’d picked up for DUI.

According to Wikipedia, she attended the March for Women 2017 and the March for Science, aka the Student’s March. Both were held in Washington DC. Possibly there were associated marches close to her home or she drove across country twice. Or maybe not.

She is going to take a cover wagon like her ancestors who traveled across the land. It’s eco friendly.

Thank you for this. I read this earlier.

I still don’t understand why.

Will look for replay of Tucket Carlson’s broadcast.

That is a 2584 mile 51 hour drive. This woman is nuts.

I agree she is nuts, but the drive is easy. I’ve driven across country several times as well as flown.

Folks, don’t be surprised if there’s an ‘accident’ that relieves the (D)himmicrats of having to deal with this sleazy lying cow.

Sounds like she has a better offer from 60 Minutes. The skank dems are threatening this if Rs don’t buckle to her demands.

Everyone is overlooking something.

Just my peronal thoughts. This fairy tale came about in a COUPLES therapy session. The fairy tale has something to do with THEIR messed up relationship....nothing to do with Kavanaugh....she just used the fairy tale to explain SOMETHING in her behavior towards her husband.

She pulled it right out of her imagination.

And to prove to him the truth of it, she sent it to Feinstein with the condition that she remain anonymous.

She won't testify. She'll have a nervous break down.

She can appear on 60 Minutes without taking an oath. She will not testify under oath.

Confirmed head case, probably also suffering from lyme/chronic fatigue/Epstein Barr, acute allergy to EMF, and severe cramps.

Ver good. I agree. I caught site of a post about how she had 65 lovers by college. I have to imagine then some by marriage.

"Party gal" would be the lighter side of describing her.
