Ford refused to turn over her therapists records, yet she provided them to the WP.

She states she was hoping the committee would come to her. Grassley has stated repeatedly that they offered to send someone to her.

Will they ask what her doctors have diagnosed her with? And how many doctors is she seeing? When did she first start seeing doctors?

Exactly. In 1982 there was not agreement that “no means no”, it was more like “no means try again”. So even if Kavanaugh was the one who participated in what could well have been a make-out session that she had second thoughts about, none of this is shocking except by the standards of 2018.

In addition to the points you make (underage drinking, no parents home, alone with boys) that were probably against her family rules she may well have felt some guilt if she was intitially a willing partner and then after changing her mind, concocted this “assault” story years later.

Those who were in HS or college in 1982: would you have considered a tussle on a bed that ended with the girl leaving the room to be a “sexual assault”? Or just a failed attempt at seduction (albeit an inept one)?

She miraculously was jogged into remember she got a car ride home when shown the distance of her home from the country club pool.

She “got up the gumption ... with the help of friends” then gets destroyed with the fact she regularly flies - she just tries to make it sound easier if it’s for vacations. Totally impeached as a witness.

She said she went to the country club to swim often so someone had to drive her...

You don't forget the person who regularly drove you to the club. It's unlikely there was a different unmemorable person each time.

she’s answering questions by deflecting to generalized clinical terms. Example: what does ‘contributed’ mean and what were other factors - answer: some people are predisposed to mental health issues. Which leaves the listener shaking their head, ‘say what?’

What’s up with the baby voice?

Was she coached to speak like this?    To seem like the girl whose innocence was robbed by one drunken groping. Alleged of course.
She sounds half like a Valley Girl.

How does someone from Baltmore Maryland that is mid 50s but look like 70s have a voice like a little girl with the valley girl thing and vocal fries with extra salt and upchuck speak. Has to be learned behavior, and/or coached.

If she is afraid of flying, what mode of transportation did she employ to get to Delaware?

Prosecutor just nailed her on that........

I wonder if this baby voice is her everyday voice?

It’s not a baby voice. It’s the voice of a scared 15 year old.

Ah, Amy, bless your heart, your memories aren’t focused on a traumatic event so shut up.

This second-door business has been bothering me too. A storm door in the same doorframe? An entire new doorway, maybe to get into the house a different way? Widening the existing doorway from one door wide to French doors wide?

Is that so they don’t appear to be “bullying” her?
Our side is mean bullies ...

think about all the destruction we have done “protesting”
Oh wait that wasn’t our side.

She also said she would have felt better if the committee had come to her but they wouldn’t...

Grassley DID offer to come to her very strongly...
