I think it’s time to sue these accusers for defamation. They either need hard proof or pay damages.
Of course, the spineless pu$$ies will be scared to death of not being invited to all the cool pot parties the Democrats hold.
Notice how this is stated as fact. Hundreds here on FR hate Roy Moore just as much as Erik Erickson or any NeverTrumper or even as much as the WaPo does. In fact, I just about quit FR over it.
In truth, the allegations against Roy Moore were just as false as those against Kavenaugh, but the latter had more female acquaintances that grew up to be in government or journalism.
Who was it years ago excused a behavior like this alleged one of Kavanaugh’s as youthful exuberance or some such. I’ve been trying to remember the exact words and who it was about and who said it but can’t come up with anything except someone shielding a democrat. Does anyone remember? Seems like it goes back to the Bill Clinton era....
Can ANYONE tell me of when in recent history that the Democrats suddenly didnt INVENT a false witness out of nowhere alleging sexual misdeeds, to try to derail a Republican from taking up a strategic office?
Or is it just to impugn Kavanaugh's character? Accusing him of a distasteful, even violent incident from 40 years ago is supposed to make us think he can't be a decent justice?
And underlying (!) the whole argument is the predicate that there is the slimmest scintilla of truth to this utter bull splatter. Accusation is not evidence, nor is it confirmation. So take these eleventh-hour accusations and stick 'em.
This is the worst kind of McCarthyesque, kangaroo court, totalitarian maneuver to hit the political scene since Stalin ruled - anonymous accusers, decades old incidents without witnesses or prior records, guilty until you prove it didn’t happen - as usual the left lives up to its reputation of practicing that which it preaches against.....
Best of all, one can prove that her accusation is false!
What a great career move! So creative!
Let those big checks start rolling in.
Just how credible a witness is anyone the demi-rats bring up at the last minute.
How many times must the American people be subjected to this overt BS from a party that idolizes a man that desecrates the oval office with an intern, a woman that commits treasonous acts, a party that colludes with foreign countries, and attempts to overthrow a legal election.
(D) stands for disgusting.
Her accusations are impossible to believe simply for the reason she felt no reason to say anything to anyone for 35 years and then suddenly remembers clearly how it “all” happened. She is lying. If she had something credible, she would have gone after him a long time ago. This is a total charade and she should be severely punished for defamation.
Another key Republican member of the Judiciary Committee, Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah complained the accusations were unverified and said the judge had submitted to six FBI background checks over the last 25 years that included interviews with families, friends and acquaintances and never revealed any character issues.
Look at our historical record...
Nixon, Bork, Newt Gingrich, Tom DeLay, Alaska Senator Ted Stevens, Alabama Judge Roy Moore, EPA Director Scott Pruitt, and now Kavanaugh.
After the Democrats watched Donald Trump flush Scott Pruitt down the toilet, they know they can assault ANY Trump nominee with complete impunity.
Unless our leadership fights back with the same intensity and with the same tactics as the Democrats, we will be politically dead in the very near future.
Ford does not want Judge Kavanaugh on the Court. I think that is her underlying motive. The timing and methodology, even the “violation” and alleged harms are suspect and this is troubling.
She claims that she was traumatized and this episode changed her life.
Before the incident she was willing, at around the age of 15, to attend drinking parties with older high school students. One wonders how many such parties she attended.
After the incident, the trauma would have changed her behavior such that she would not attend such parties. And yet she can't clearly remember when her life changed so dramatically. I find every reason to think she is lying and no reason whatever to believe her.
