California professor speaks out about her allegation of sexual assault
The Washington Post ^ | September 16, 2018 | Emma Brown

Posted on 09/16/2018 10:46:52 AM PDT by Trump20162020

Earlier this summer, Christine Blasey Ford wrote a confidential letter to a senior Democratic lawmaker alleging that Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her more than three decades ago, when they were high school students in suburban Maryland. Since Wednesday, she has watched as that bare-bones version of her story became public without her name or her consent, drawing a blanket denial from Kavanaugh and roiling a nomination that just days ago seemed all but certain to succeed.

Now, Ford has decided that if her story is going to be told, she wants to be the one to tell it.

Speaking publicly for the first time, Ford said that one summer in the early 1980s, Kavanaugh and a friend — both “stumbling drunk,” Ford alleges — corralled her into a bedroom during a gathering of teenagers at a house in Montgomery County.

While his friend watched, she said, Kavanaugh pinned her to a bed on her back and groped her over her clothes, grinding his body against hers and clumsily attempting to pull off her one-piece bathing suit and the clothing she wore over it. When she tried to scream, she said, he put his hand over her mouth.

“I thought he might inadvertently kill me,” said Ford, now a 51-year-old research psychologist in northern California. “He was trying to attack me and remove my clothing.”

This is just Anita Hill redux. However, there are two Republican senators to whom this may mater. If they think it credible, it could be an issue for confirmation.

It worked with Roy Moore. Excepting two frightened Democrat (Nunn and Fowler) senators who feared voting against a black Georgia judge, it would have worked with Clarence Thomas.

This is a test. If partisan Democrats are allowed to present people with craven agendas at any time, with forty year old charges, then we have no statute of limitations and anyone who is not a Dremocrat or a communist will not be allowed to hold public status.

Thee people at a minimum should be laughed at, and at a maximum chased with tar and feathers.

And she’s a prof? Many college professors are the most unscrupulous around. There is hardly any reason to ever believe Democrat Leftists.

Nothing.

One telling paragraph:

After so many years, Ford said she does not remember some key details of the incident. She said she believes it occurred in the summer of 1982, when she was 15, around the end of her sophomore year at the all-girls Holton-Arms School in Bethesda. Kavanaugh would have been 17 at the end of his junior year at Georgetown Prep.

She says she doesn’t remember much of what happened...which begs the question, does she remember anything that happened?

The other guy, Mark Judge, already strongly denied it. Plus her therapist's notes, from 2012, said there were four guys involved, now she's saying two.

Complete and utter garbage. He’s been in the public eye for decades. And now a supposed incident in high school that nobody remembers and which is completely out of character for Kavenaugh is supposed to define him? Right.

At least she didn’t get involved until less than a week before the committee vote and two weeks before the floor vote. /sarc
