And Gropin’ Joe is now rewriting history, claiming the lying b*tch was somehow mistreated
Her career in victimhood has been very good to Anita Hill.
Why are we still talking about Anita Hill?
Does anybody ever talk about Mary Jo Kopechne or Juanita Broaderick?
David Brock detailed a lot of this nicely in “The Real Anita Hill” before his unnatural inclinations drove him to the dark side.
The rats can get away with crucifying a black man if he is a conservative.
The question I’ve always wondered is who paid her and how much was she paid.
It was Hill’s friends who brought the “harassment” to the attention of the committee.
IMO, Hill had been BSing her friends about her close, working relationship with Thomas. Sort of “hometown girl makes good” story. Following Thomas to new job bolsters this BS. Then when Thomas moved on without her, the friends asked, “’Sup wid dat?” To end all the BSing, Hill says “He harassed me” thinking that would end it all.
But then, Thomas gets nominated to SCOTUS, friends ask Hill to say something, she refuses and now the friends go to the committee with the lie she told to cover her “little white lie.”
All the rest is history.

The Committee -- and Biden in particular -- was very surprised by this. Obviously, if a guy is going to pressure a woman for sex, that's when he'd do it. But she had never even told the Committee she'd invited him to her home, much less that he'd acted improperly. Biden openly mused "I wonder why she never mentioned that", and Thomas said "You'd have to ask her."
So, the Committee asked her to come back the next day so she'd get a chance to rebut his testimony, and she refused.
Even during the hearings decades ago, I alway felt she was lying. Just like the stupid MeToo movement - just a bunch of people lying for $ or personal publicity.
Ironically the best defense of Thomas came from David Brock of Media Matters in his book the Real Anita Hill. The points you make are thoroughly documented in his book. Then David Brock converted to a radical leftist liar
You have done a great job of condensing the principle points
Joe Biden was the committee chairman and comes off very well, IMHO.

My mom worked with one of her witnesses. My mom knew Ms. Hill wasn’t telling the truth.
Bump for later.
Anita Hill was the first real attempt by the democrats to smear a conservative appointee. She was such a miserable failure that everybody ignored her. She is now trying to climb out from under it by stating that Joe Biden’s apology is not enough. From most of the people who heard her back then, comes the feeling that she lied then and is disingenuous now.
The first of many many many liars that the Democrats and put forth to try to slander Republican nominees
The last one ball Z Ford really kind of blew up in their faces though
The most obvious lie that Anita Hill told was following Clarence Thomas from job to job because was afraid she would lose her career. Anita Hill was an African-American female with a Yale law degree - her meal ticket had been punched. She could find a new job in a couple of hours.
I watched some of that at the time. I always thought she had that “crazy look” about her.

If there was a pubic hair on a coke can or not is NOT the issue...
Anita Hill was NOT a powerless women, she was a powerful civil rights attorney... Compare that to Juanita Broaddrick - a powerless woman who was RAPED by Bill Clinton. I’m sure Juanita wished the worst of her nightmare was a hair on a coke can.
How did the vile press treat these two women? Anita Hill was one bookend of early contempt for the American Press... that Juanita completed...
We’re sick of the double standard - - how liberal women vs conservative women are treated. I don’t give a damn if there was a hair on the coke can or not.
