[Professional]

You can fool some of the people ALL of the time.

The media is pretty good at that...

[SoftballMominVA]

Why does she keep asking about who paid for the polygraph?

[backwoods-engineer]

Trust me. Mitch McConnell is so PO-ed by this stunt he is going to do ANYTHING to make them yes votes. Threaten to kill their pork. Yank their committee assignments. Have their Senate office moved to a converted Exxon station in Chevy Chase.

What evidence do you have for this? Turtle Mitch appears to be a simpering RINO who cringes before the onslaught of an accusing woman like Ford.

[Sam Gamgee]

I actually was hoping for that. People told us she wouldn’t show. She showed. She is firm that this happened. Not good at all.

[longtermmemmory]

his opening statement is squishy bland.

[Dog]

Well hows it going...been out of the loop

[KC Burke]

It was the other poster’s short hand for social justice warrior.

Look for the tell tale signs of caving in on this within a few hours, 24 hrs....

Eventually, people in the media form a consensus about how to react to something. Just what that consensus will be is hard to predict. We'll know more after Kavanaugh speaks.

[Pravious]

“I don’t know anything about money - money? What’s money? What e-mail? I said what? When? Who am I again?”

[RooRoobird20]

The GOP senators on the committee need to go home and put their skirts on. What a bunch of wussy men!!!

[bgill]

Is that her house? Is that a for sale sign so is she moving up after she cashes Soros’ check?

[pgkdan]

How could she possibly not remember who drove her and whose house it was its preposterous. But for 36 years she’s been waiting to stop this guy from being on the Supreme Court.

Can't remember:
Year that the party happened
Where the party was
How she got there
How she got home

Basically she can't remember ANY detail that would permit Brett Kavanaugh the ability to prove he wasn't at that party.

[Georgia Girl 2]

More likely Ford had a crush on Judge and ambushed him at the Safeway. He was probably pale and uncomfortable because he wasn’t interested.

[bgill]

Irish coffee and rum and coke.

At the least, lots of caffeine.

[DivineMomentsOfTruth]

Ford consistently tries to run time out on the prosecutor’s questions.

[hsmomx3]

Do we have to pay for OAN on ROKU? I am new to ROKU and am still wading my way thru everything.

[MagnoliaB]

I saw that. What was that about I wonder.

[Sam Gamgee]

They did long ago. Remember how hostile they were to candidate Trump?

[GreenHornet]

Ford really does look mentally ill. The ragged face, unkept hair, jittering, shifting in chair, awkward laughing.

I'm sure all of that is by design - along with the quivering, child-like voice - to give the appearance that the attack just happened a few hours ago. She doesn't want to come across as someone who is poised and in control, someone who is there on a political mission.
