My 5 minute solution to the Kavanaugh allegation.

Public hearing
No swearing in
Bring Kavanaugh in
Bring the accuser in
Bring a polygraph machine in
Hook up Kavanaugh - ask the question
Hook up the accuser - ask the question

End of story

I disagree completely. That is not the bigger issue here. The real issue is that no one of any political stripe should be disqualified from serving a high office due to a misdeed decades ago in high school. PERIOD.

No need to put any decent adult with a good adult life record on TRIAL for one wrong move in childhood.

Polygraph tests cannot be administered in such a public highly-charged setting. There would be no way to establish a "normal" baseline from which to detect deviations.

The last thing you want to to is legitimize poligraphs. Innocent people can be found “lying” and guilty can be found “telling the truth”. Useless.

As with other accusations of this type, if you allow just one of them through the gate, every radical screwball is going to #metoo, and claim he molested them as well.

This is one of the worst ideas I ever heard.

Regurgitate that thought and try again.

It seems to me that if you were drunk when something happened and three decades have gone by, you might not even know for sure what was true or false about your own experience.

I will have “memories” of childhood sometimes when suddenly I realize they are not memories, but dreams; or I “remember” places I’d visited, and then realize that actually I’d only seen pictures of them.

The mind can have a strange ability to conflate things that happened with things imagined. I don’t trust lie detectors at all.

The chick already passed a polygraph test...allegedly.

Polygraphs are a useful tool for con-artist, especially with Doctorates in Psychology or whatever BS profession this chick accrued. Heck, I can come up with ways to pass a polygraph.

One time I passed a polygraph stating that "I was definitely the tooth fairy". Easiest method is to watch 'Oceans 13', yes that strategy works among a lot of others (Especially if you are a narcissistic sociopath like this chick is from reading reports about her).

And then after that, they can have Kavanaugh try on the bloody glove....

Rule #1: Never, ever put on a demonstration in court (which this essentially is) without being 100,000% sure of the outcome.

Polygraphs cannot be trusted. What you hear on TV “failed/passed a lie detector test” is half hogwash.

Just so you know, CIA Russia spy Aldrich Ames passed something like 50 polygraphs before he was caught.

Would you seriously disqualify an adult man because when he was a 17 year old boy he tried to get a girl’s top off and failed?

There’s a scientific way to determine this:

The accuser has a problem. She doesn’t know where she was, how she got there. I’m betting that mommy and daddy are not happy with this event....assuming they are alive.
