The nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh seemed all but certain a few days ago, until a woman named Christine Blasey Ford came forward accusing him of sexual assault when they were in high school. The alleged crime having taken place decades ago has prompted many to ask: Why did she wait so long?
I can tell you why.
In a word ... Fear
In my freshman year of college, I was the victim of something quite similar, on my 18th birthday. I understand why Dr. Ford remained silent. She was afraid. Afraid that no one would believe her – after all, she had been drinking. Fear if it went to court, her sex life would be revealed. Fear she would be judged. Fear her name would be dragged through the mud. And she’s not alone.
Rape and sexual assault are the most underreported crimes in our nation. Worldwide, one in three women experience some sexual violence in their lifetime, according to the World Health Organization. Yet it is fear that keeps them from coming forward.

Even in light of the #MeToo movement, only a handful will come forward like Dr. Ford. For the rest, the silence continues.
I am guilty of that silence.
...he is a successful professional in [his]chosen career, it sickened me. I wanted to tell someone. But I didn’t. Fear prevented me from picking up the phone.

First of all, Ms Ford has reported something, but what she discribed is not sexual assualt. Simple assualt maybe. No sex act was committed.
Totally bogus.
The Democrats had this fairy tail a long, long time ago and decided to use this as a confirmation IED to try and blow up Trump’s nomination in order to appease their god, Moloch.
So, please, stop with this “she’s a brave woman” pathway to sainthood nonsense.
In a word ... opportunity.
Ford is a Democrat party operative with connections to Soros, et al.
She came out as a last ditch attempt to delay the Kavanaugh’s appointment past the mid-terms.
That is all there is to it.
Apparently she didn’t go to the police when it “happened.” She did not go to the hospital because of the inevitable injuries caused by repeated, non-consensual sex. Why is no one else talking about this?
Her PARENTS????
She needs a financial followup over the next few years.
While Leslie Marshall can come up with reasons for Ford. I can come up with three reasons why Women come forward to lie. The three reasons are the other three women who have come forward with obviously shady lies about Kavanaugh. They are three great examples of women who for politics, fame or money felt no guilt in lying their asses off in full public view. And somehow Ford is different? Ford has lied about not flying, she has totally changed her appearance. And if someone asked her what she has been doing the past week; Its getting her story right. Kavanaugh did not have to get his story right. Its always been the same.
Lying is Empowerment. Empowerment is Supporting the Lies.
Is this one lying? Donno. But her timing is fully intended to support a liar.
She a major cog/product of the ‘Rat smear industry.
Just because Bubba won because of the womens' vote doesn't make it the vote to go after....above all others.
Dumb....
I don’t want to hear a damn thing Leslie Marshall has to say.
Trumps presidency has brought out a lot of lunacy among the left... Gnashing of teeth type lunacy, the type you usually only see in drug addicts and zombies in the movies.
It is truly pathetic and no doubt, there are many woman out there who are under the delusion that Trump himself sexually assaulted them and they could testify to it as convincingly as Ms. Ford.
Feminists were very upset about not being able to be elected to public office. So they fought for it even if it meant public mockery and estrangement from their friends and families.
Feminists were very upset about not being able to pursue whatever career choice they wanted. So they ...
Feminists were very upset about not being able to control their reproductive decisions. So they ...
Feminists were very upset about being raped. In fact they were most upset about rape. So they clutched their pearls and stayed quiet because they didn't want to be mocked and they didn't want to be estranged from their friends and families.
Right.
Well, they came up in the conversation.
We're talking about who molested her.
I'm just trying to give them the benefit of the doubt for not feeling her up.
I wasn't there.
Lying sack o’ feces. I think most of the pound me too gals are mental cases.
Thought these hearings would be about the nominee for Supreme Court.and the nominee’s involvement into an alleged incident while a minor.
But testimony has been allowed to degrade into a purulent description replete with emotional sobbing of the helpless victim heart tugging by Senator Finestein (and others following) Finestein’s opening statement describing an alleged rape by the accuser (avoided any reference to; the accuser while a teen and seems to have been sexually active and practiced consentual sex) allowed the fact the nominee was not even present or involved not to become emphasized..
Yep
