MORE. READ THE LAST PARAGRAPH
I found Ford believable. Although her memory had significant gaps, she has clearly experienced some trauma. She does not come across as politically or financially motivated as some of the other accusers do. I also found Kavanaugh to be believable. He has an impeccable record and strongly denied the accusations. We may never answer the questions of what truly occurred.
But there is a greater question at hand, a question beyond the truthfulness of Ford or Kavanaugh’s testimony. This question will have lasting effects long beyond the tenure of Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy’s replacement. That question is whether the politics of power, the politics by any means demonstrated by Sen. Dianne Feinstein and Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats, will be rewarded.
A mentor once told me, when discussing how to respond to inappropriate sexual conduct in the workplace, “You promote what you permit.” If Democrats are allowed to delay this nomination and the elections in 2018 and 2020 benefit them, both Republicans and Democrats for a generation will have learned that the American people prefer to be ruled by tyrants that punish their enemies instead of representatives in a republic who adhere to the rule of law.
Tomas Mendoza is a pen name for a man who works at a company endorsed by gay activists and where CEOs openly complain about having too many white, male leaders. To protect his job, therefore, he requested anonymity for writing in support of due process for a Republican appointee.
I see a red wave here??

“I found Ford believable. Although her memory had significant gaps, she has clearly experienced some trauma. She does not come across as politically or financially motivated as some of the other accusers do.”
That’s crap. She wasn’t believable. She never experience sexual trauma. She is one-thousand percent politically motivated. She’s a frickin’ pussy-hat-wearing activist, for Pete’s sake.
She took one for the team, and she’ll be rewarded.
She is believble because she is mentally ill. Most women believe their own lies and they feel it is not lies. They are very self suggestive
A little off topic; When BK said the accusation was like something out of the Twilight one, it reminded me of the episode where a woman bangs on a strangers door and pleads for help, saying the man on the sidewalk tried to rape her.
The stranger, a man, becomes convinced and ends up killing the man on the sidewalk. Once the deed is done the woman says, “ it wasn’t him, it that man..no, no that man” and so on.
OMG...that's telling.
