READ: Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford's prepared remarks for Thursday hearing
The Hill ^ | 9/26/2018 | The Hill Staff

Posted on 09/26/2018 2:35:17 PM PDT by PhxRising

The Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday released the full text of the prepared testimony of Christine Blasey Ford, the first of three women accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault.

Ford and Kavanaugh are slated to speak before the panel on Thursday.

Ford alleges that Kavanaugh attempted to remove her clothing and stifled her screams during a high school party in the early 1980s. Kavanaugh has fiercely denied her allegations.

Two other women, Deborah Ramirez and Julie Swetnick, have also accused Kavanaugh in recent days of sexual misconduct. Kavanaugh also has denied those claims.

Which is usually manifest in the ones who are so impervious to life’s lessons that they get a 2nd PhD. The principal life lesson from getting a PhD is that it was a waste of time. I have known engineers who stand on their MSs and try to hide the fact that they got a PhD so they don’t have to explain why they chose to waste another 3 years of their lives.

Ok...she went to a pool party with boys but brought nothing with her? No towel, no purse, hairbush, lipstick, etc?

She says she ran out of the house but says nothing about first grabbing her purse or other personal items.

The stairway changed a bit from the Feinstein letter to this new statement.

“Kavanaugh physically pushed me into a bedroom as I was headed for a bathroom up a short stair well from the living room.”

“Early in the evening, I went up a narrow set of stairs leading from the living room to a second floor to use the bathroom.”

If she’s a professor, then how come not a single one of her students have weighed in on the allegations?

How come she doesn’t have teacher reviews on Rate My Professor?

She seems to be very ethereal.

I think her intent was that the door was locked to keep anyone from coming in and interrupting.

FWIW I have had passage locks (no key just a button) on bedroom doors in the past.

It depends on the questioner and often she repeats: you don’t know when or where and everyone you claim was there, denies it.

Not to mention when all 3 of them are locked in the bedroom, how did she get up up run out of the room with all 3 of them in a pile? Even if one had a key they had to get up before she did and unlock the door

excerpt from her opening statement

Brett and Mark came into the bedroom and locked the door behind them. During this assault, Mark came over and jumped on the bed twice while Brett was on top of me. The last time he did this, we toppled over and Brett was no longer on top of me. I was able to get up and run out of the room.

So how does one “pinball” off of a wall? And how did she know? Was she watching them?

Well, one of the lefties already opened up on a softball team of Republican congressman, nearly killing one of them.

This country is on the brink.

“If Kavanaugh isn’t confirmed, there won’t be any rule of law in the very near future.”

Well, there might be law, but it won’t be the U.S. Constitution.

It is. The lefty I was talking to today was in a rage, ready to kill. He really believes Putin is now running our country, with Trump, and that Kavanaugh is a serial rapist in the mold of Clinton.

My mom didn’t turn in her thesis at the last minute because she realized getting her doctorate would put her out of a job.

Let’s see how well her prepared remarks hold up once the trained prosecutor who knows something about real sex crimes starts in on her......

Chronology of all this.

She did her lie detector test in Maryland first week in August of 2018.

Has she been in the area since then?

How’d she fly here for the test if she’s afraid to fly?

She did it before the test went public and it was performed at a Hilton hotel in the DC area.

Who paid for the hotel? To fly her here? And for the test itself?

This phrase from her statement belies all the rest:

"Reporters appeared at my home and at my job demanding information about this letter, including in the presence of my graduate students. They called my boss and co-workers and left me many messages, making it clear that my name would inevitably be released to the media. I decided to speak out publicly to a journalist who had responded to the tip I had sent to The Washington Post and who had gained my trust."

She had already leaked her story herself to the Washington Post. . . and she says she was afraid of being EXPOSED to the media when the reporters are already knocking at your door, your office, calling your employer, calling you, you've BEEN exposed because YOU exposed yourself.

“Even if one had a key they had to get up before she did and unlock the door”

If it was a skeleton key lock, the skeleton key may have been left in the lock.

If not a skeleton key lock, just turning the knob might unlock the door.
