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

They didn’t bring it up at the hearing because it’s unsubstantiated BS and they knew they’d get called on it... but they’ll leak it to Buzzfeed and lil’ Ronan to get their pound of flesh, of course.

Strange how he’s never has the slightest hint of any misdeeds in the past 30 years of public service.

Please.

Roy Moore was his own worst enemy and a terrible Candidate.

He had no response to the Allegations made against him and he ended up coming off as a creep.

His Interview with Hannity was supposed to save him, but he came off looking like a fool while being questioned by a friendly Interviewer.

He also had no idea how to Campaign. He all but disappeared for weeks before the Election.

Hindsight is 20/20, especially looking through Rose Colored Beer Googles.

Comparing Judge Kavanaugh to Roy Moore is silly.

This comparison should be made to what Justice Thomas went through.

I sure hope this babe doesn’t mind being OUTED and having her life PERMANENTLY changed, and probably for the worse.

I only say the above because that the Democrat playbook, if the anonymous accusations don’t work. They are not about to say ‘oh bummer, better luck next time’. They don’t play that way, as she may well learn.

(i.e., I have no info on her, nor would I threaten or harm her...but there are a lot of people in this country that just may, if they find out who she is)

Smart Phone recording.

The Accuser is a Time Traveler too?

BTW, how old is Omarosa? Just curious.

Back in those days, a smart phone was a pay-phone on a college campus.

There is exactly two women I remember from HS and I think both are dead.
The rest of the 250 from HS, I can’t remember there names or faces.

If these were three intoxicated teenage high schoolers, and if Kavanaugh went to an all-boys prep school, can we assume that he and she might not have known each other until the party (not classmates)?

Unless they grew up on the same block, can we be sure that she is even recollecting properly something that happened 30 years ago while drunk at a party with a boy she just met, and maybe it wasn't Kavanaugh?

Well he didn’t did he? And you got out. Big deal. Most gals had guys try that at 17. Gals aren’t maimed for life over it.

Truth is this coward of a person should come out and face the man she is accusing. But she cannot, because she is lying.

Why?

They are using the exact same approach.

Or is it you believe the false accusations against Judge Roy Moore?

False accusers MUST be held accountable.
First, she must be made to reveal who is paying her.
Second, she must go to jail for double the time that the falsely accused innocent person would have gone to jail.
Thirdly, the entire democrat party must be declared a criminal enterprise, and its leaders jailed.

<>"I called a girl a “poopy head” in 2nd grade."<>

In Seventh grade, I told a girl that she was a "horrid creature" for some brutal teasing she dished out.

It was my first encounter with the liberal "mind".

She ran to her girlfriends telling them I had called her a whore.

I told her to buy a dictionary.

You know who won and who got detention, right?

Shame, Kavenaugh would have made an excellent jurist.
