Ronan Farrow: Accuser claims Kavanaugh tried to force himself on her (tr)
Hot Air ^ | September 14, 2018

Congratulations to Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett, I guess.

No, no, wait. The offense alleged here is serious, much more than Kavanaugh and a pal locking a female classmate in a room or whatever, as was claimed yesterday. And Farrow’s track record (he co-wrote the piece with Obama apologist Jane Mayer) will lend it a patina of credibility to readers.

But the evidence is thin as can be.

The woman, who has asked not to be identified, first approached Democratic lawmakers in July, shortly after Trump nominated Kavanaugh. The allegation dates back to the early nineteen-eighties, when Kavanaugh was a high-school student at Georgetown Preparatory School, in Bethesda, Maryland, and the woman attended a nearby high school. In the letter, the woman alleged that, during an encounter at a party, Kavanaugh held her down, and that he attempted to force himself on her. She claimed in the letter that Kavanaugh and a classmate of his, both of whom had been drinking, turned up music that was playing in the room to conceal the sound of her protests, and that Kavanaugh covered her mouth with his hand. She was able to free herself. Although the alleged incident took place decades ago and the three individuals involved were minors, the woman said that the memory had been a source of ongoing distress for her, and that she had sought psychological treatment as a result.

In a statement, Kavanaugh said, “I categorically and unequivocally deny this allegation. I did not do this back in high school or at any time.”

Kavanaugh’s classmate said of the woman’s allegation, “I have no recollection of that.”

He’s not the only classmate who has no recollection of it

He bombed on Hannity and there are numerous FReeper comments from back then that support it.

Just imagine how stupid he would have looked being interviewed by ANY Mainstream DNC Media Talking Head.

Tired of discussing this anyway. Water under the bridge.

Curious to know ‘how long’ Farrow has been “working” on this?

They’re still milking it for all it’s worth.

Guilty until proven Innocent, especially when most People never get past the Headline.

There is no reason to think the allegation will derail Kavanaugh's nomination.

Any Republican voting against him would be committing career suicide.

However, I am far less sanguine - DemonRatz are determined, nasty people.

Even the Never Trump Bushies like and will stand behind Kavanaugh because Kavanaugh worked for W.

All of that is missing here. There’s a not a single mention of a friend, family member, doctor, or cop whom the woman allegedly told about the incident with Kavanaugh. If she sought psychological help to deal with her distress, there should be evidence of that somewhere. No doubt Farrow and Mayer desperately want it. But they don’t have it.

Nothing burger trolling for other women who have psychological problems.

In light of that and K’s denial denial, I agree.

To my mind the only thing up for argument at the moment is whether Master Farrow is a tool or willing participant.

Or counter with something even more ridiculous, like reports that Kavanaugh was involved in murder, he killed a mouse.

This may not even be about stopping him.
This may be all about giving red state Democrats like
Claire McCaskill an excuse to vote against him.
