“On the other hand the FBI was involved in the Anita Hill/Clarence Thomas dust up.”
They were both Federal employees at the time of the alleged harassment.

I don’t think the whole thing even happened.

I think this woman is a very active and angry dem party member. I think she volunteered herself to her dem masters because she could be placed at the same high school as Kavanaugh. They then conjured up the whole story to use when need be to take out Kavanaugh.

It hardly matters now if it happened....there’s so much rabid accusation and hype coming from every open mouth on the Resistance Media that the guy is completely tarnished. They’ve done enough damage that they may have been able to turn just enough votes away....and she won’t even have to say a word. It’s clear she doesn’t actually want to be interviewed, and even THAT she’s saying is the fault of Republicans.

Totally fabricated. Now a good man has two daughters who will hear about their “rapist” father for a long, long time. And all of this because the left wants to continue killing the unborn. Pure evil.

“Less tainted nominee?”

Those diseased dems intend to smear every single one of Trump’s nominees for this seat. Kavanaugh is eminently qualified for the SCOTUS and the dems’ only vehicle for stopping him is a hit job like this.

Chances are the Republicans will have a bigger majority in the Senate come January than they do now. I don’t see how the Democrats will be able to stop Trump from making as many appointments as he needs to. Being able to stall for a week isn’t the same as defeating a nominee.

They want to make sure he’s not seated before October 1. That is a victory.

Still not the FBI’s jurisdiction.

More than likely handled by the Capitol Police or IG for the respective agency/entity then handed over to appropriate court for adjudication.

Thanks for providing us with the most ridiculous comment on this thread. Kavanaugh will be confirmed next week.

The answer is that she is a fraud who ought to be shocked with a cattle prod until she fesses up as to who paid her.

Your attitude is a hair shy of an open endorsement of false rape charges as a fair play tool in the seeking of political ends.

He should be cutting his losses and getting a new less tainted nominee in the pipeline. There are many conservative justices to chose from and if Kavanaugh gets on the court you know the liberals will bring up this allegation on every court decision he participates in.

________________

only true stupidity would say such a thing.

This is not about Kavanaugh being “tainted” this is about leftists using Alinsky Tactics to implement a slow coup on our government.

You are being manipulated.

•RULE 1: “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood. (These are two things of which there is a plentiful supply. Government and corporations always have a difficult time appealing to people, and usually do so almost exclusively with economic arguments.)

•RULE 2: “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone. (Organizations under attack wonder why radicals don’t address the “real” issues. This is why. They avoid things with which they have no knowledge.)

•RULE 3: “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty. (This happens all the time. Watch how many organizations under attack are blind-sided by seemingly irrelevant arguments that they are then forced to address.)

•RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules. (This is a serious rule. The besieged entity’s very credibility and reputation is at stake, because if activists catch it lying or not living up to its commitments, they can continue to chip away at the damage.)

•RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions. (Pretty crude, rude and mean, huh? They want to create anger and fear.)

•RULE 6: “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones. (Radical activists, in this sense, are no different that any other human being. We all avoid “un-fun” activities, and but we revel at and enjoy the ones that work and bring results.)

•RULE 7: “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news. (Even radical activists get bored. So to keep them excited and involved, organizers are constantly coming up with new tactics.)

•RULE 8: “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new. (Attack, attack, attack from all sides, never giving the reeling organization a chance to rest, regroup, recover and re-strategize.)

•RULE 9: “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist. (Perception is reality. Large organizations always prepare a worst-case scenario, something that may be furthest from the activists’ minds. The upshot is that the organization will expend enormous time and energy, creating in its own collective mind the direst of conclusions. The possibilities can easily poison the mind and result in demoralization.)

•RULE 10: “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog. (Unions used this tactic. Peaceful [albeit loud] demonstrations during the heyday of unions in the early to mid-20th Century incurred management’s wrath, often in the form of violence that eventually brought public sympathy to their side.)

•RULE 11: “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem. (Old saw: If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem. Activist organizations have an agenda, and their strategy is to hold a place at the table, to be given a forum to wield their power. So, they have to have a compromise solution.)

•RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)

WHY CHRISTINE BLASEY FORD’S PREP SCHOOL YEARBOOK GOT SCRUBBED:

Page upon page shows Holton Arms Faculty Approved Racism, underage Drinking & underage Promiscuity

PROGRESSIVE HOLTON ARMS FACULTY APPROVED SEXUAL PROMISCUITY-the Holton girls mention their male conquests with great pride:
“No longer confining ourselves to the walls of Landon and Prep, we plunged into the waters of St John and Gonzaga with much success.”

.....pg. 260, shows racy images, including three Holton minors dressed provocatively as Playboy bunnies.
The caption states: “Beach week culminated the year for those of us lucky enough to go, we were able to release all those troubling inhibitions of the past year.
While dancing in the middle of coastal Highway, Holton Arms student Ann and friends picked up men who passed out in their apartment......”

I have never seen this.

So true.

Leftists permeate our government, our academies, and our large corporations and these people want an elite oligarchy with them in ultimate control.

Look at our highways, our streets, our phones and our cars.

All wired with the purpose of controlling the populace.

We must consider that this "human mattress" was recruited to do the job on Kavanaugh.

Democrats see in Kavanaugh---not just anti-abortion--- but the end of their long sordid history of using the courts to push their agenda.

What to do?

Ford was a Dem donor....some of them knew of her. The notorious Holton Arms connection was easily made.......and its proximity to Georgetown Prep.

As a graduate of Holton Arms, she had a vagina and she knew how to use it.

Bingo. Democrats' got their attack dog.

Sex charges to decimate Bret's reputation were hatched.

But Ford musta got cold feet.......delay delay delay.....til they got the Holton Arms' vaginal slob in condition to testify.

Even if it happened, which I still don’t really believe it did, that’s not what you did back then. In the early Eigthies. It wasn’t until everything became political that making advances on a woman who turned you down became a criminal offense. And it seems she may have had a reputation to boot...

Spot on. The Pubbies either grow some cojones, or they fade into history with the Whigs. They need to choose NOW.

They will all be tainted. This claim is very weak and If it gets torpedoed they won’t stop until he names a moderate.

Hmmm, a newb calling Kavanaugh “tainted” because of bogus vague unsubstantiated allegations by an anti-Trump activist.

And you’re a legit conservative? Maybe not.
