Here are those hard hitting detailed questions...wow, must have been a very exhaustive test...

Following Ford’s interview she was given a polygraph examination with the following two questions:

Is any part of your statement false?
Did you make up any part of your statement?

Ford answered “no” to both questions. “Blasey’s responses to the above relevant questions are not indicative of deception,” the report read. Two more analyses of Ford’s responses also suggested she had been truthful.

Why did she not just run down the stairs instead of locking herself upstairs in the bathroom until her alleged attackers had gone downstairs? That makes no sense at all.

Also, was there a bathroom downstairs? Why did she use an upstairs bathroom?

I turned on Rush while one of the RATS was speaking. He described this as a “bore” and then started sounding like one of the “sky is falling” types who are posting on this thread. I turned him off.

A college prof doesn’t know how to write a letter to the president but little elementary school kids know how.

Prosecutor is doing a great job!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Yes, because:

This is NOT about “breaking” Ford
This is NOT about determining what is the Truth & what is a lie (although folks may see what they believe are lies)
This is NOT about changing anyone’s minds ... the Dems are a “no” vote regardless of the outcome of the hearings - even if Ford was proved to lie about every single one of her accusations. Kavanaugh is a Trump/Republican nominee which is an automatic “NO” vote from Dems and nothing is going to change that.

This IS about giving Ford a committee hearing so Repub Senators who require this before they can be convinced to vote for Kavanaugh can be thrown a bone.

This IS about getting through the hearing without photo ops (i.e. ‘ammunition’ for the Left) of old, white, Republican men making Ford uncomfortable, upset, cry, and on and on. As much as I hate it, “optics” are important.

This IS ridiculous. For any future nominations, the Republicans need to go nuclear and not have hearings - they ARE NOT a requirement. If the Repubs haven’t figured it out by now, this is take-no-prisoners WAR declared by the Democr@ps and they had better get themselves on a war footing pronto, confirm Kavanaugh & break out their brass knuckles for use every time the Dems pull stunts like this, or, as Scott Adams said (language warning) the Republcans are “f—king dead”.

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?’

Translation: she's a nutcase

Yes, Mitchell provides a great comparison to the political commentary by the Democrats. This is effective on several levels.

Girls and women have that same valley girl voice everywhere now

Even in the South

College southern girls talk just as vapidly

It’s the replacement for their native accent and I find it disgusting

Only southern accent left amongst under 40 southern women is country

If you are country

Then you go to Oxford or Tuscaloosa or Athens and promptly lose it so as not to be ashamed of you heritage

Watch those reality shows in Savannah or Charleston.....some of the Charleston girls have kept theirs to be fair

Klobuchar wanted to enter the polygraph report, which is on the internet, but withhold the actual underlying charts the report is derived from.

I read that as “she’s a frequent liar.”

Yes, since this became a big story she had to speak based on the Republican pro-abortion chicks.

The cover can go the other way with a one-sided hearing from a witness who is an expert in memory loss and psychological trauma from events in the past.

Also, there are enough people who will buy the vagueness of this “expert's” story who were on the fence increasing public pressure.

Yes. I think the prosecutor is being pleasant (not hostile) but doing a good job.

I mean the woman has a PhD and said she didn’t know HOW to contact her senator or the POTUS? UM NO

She is questioning her. You can listen on your phone if you are at work. I’m listening to KFI on iHeartRadio.

That isn’t really relevant to this questioning.
