We are not allowed to doubt Dr Ford in any way. We are to take her at face value... I'll just state the obvious.
I don't find her to be very believable. I will stop short of calling her a liar, however, her account is extremely Inconsistent. The whole circumstance is suspect.
First and foremost, for all this FBI investigation talk, the law enforcement agency with jurisdiction would be the Montgomery County Sheriff's office; why have they not been contacted by Dr Ford or her attorneys?
Dr Ford said she would have perfered to be visited at her home in CA, rather then coming out to DC. She was offered just that in multiple letters and emails. Not to mention it was all over television. I found it very odd she seemed surprised being told that at the hearing.
8 days before the hearing, an example of four different options to give testimony to the committee. cnn.com/2018/09/19/pol…
The polygraph was discribed in her testimony as long and scary. In fact she wrote a page statement and was asked only 2 vague questions. Why not ask specific questions to the accusation? This is being held up as proof to her account. That's reaching IMO. usatoday.com/story/news/pol…
Furthermore, when asked if she verbally summerized the lie detector findings to the press or relayed the physical report, she did not recall. This event occured just a month ago... She doesn't remember mid to late August? You believe that? I don't.
We where told Dr Ford needed more time because she was afraid to fly. Come to find out, not only did she FLY to the Thursday hearing, or indeed took a few flights around her polygraph in early August; she takes many flights, at least once a year! Huh?
She cannot remember the date and is fuzzy on the location. She offers this account, in part; she was pushed into a bedroom and was locked in the room and rush onto a bed, she claimed. Brett laid on top of her and tried to remove her clothes while groping her.
Kavanaugh held her down and put his hand on her mouth to stop her from screaming for help. She then got away to a bathroom, despite loud music she heard them laugh and joke "ping ponging" off the walls coming down the stairs. OK...
She doesn't recall how she got there or home approximately 6 to 8 miles away. Relieved to be out of that horrible rubbing situation were she said to fear for her life, so elated in fact, she doesn't recall the gardian angel that got her home that mysterious night.
That would be very helpful information that is very conveniently unrecalled. Just little things like the date and precise location.
So, sometime, somewhere, somehow she got wherever it was and got sexually assaulted. Well, that's air tight 🙄
She she told her marriage counselor in 2012 yet does not name Kavanaugh. This being the first mention of the alleged attack, 30 years after the fact. I find this suspect myself.
Dr Ford's named corroborating witnesses don't corroborate a thing. Imagine that. Of course AP plays this down.
News flash AP: you cannot prove a negative (something that didn't happen)
The full AP article... Reads like snopes but contain relevant information among the mental acrobatics to not fully concede to Kavanaugh's defense. voanews.com/a/ap-fact-chec…
Expanding out. Diane Feinstein had this information going back to July and didn't, privately, share it with the committee to let it be properly investigated in private. Nope. Not a word, to anyone... Republican.
(bet your ass Schumer got a call)
Worth pointing out; while @SenFeinstein was aware of these "serious accusations" leveled against Brett Kavanagh for weeks, rather than ask him directly at the appropriate time during the committee hearings about the allegations she is privy to, DiFi chooses a different approach
While Senator Graham had the flood, DiFi interjects, completely unsolicited I add, that Kavanaugh is a "good husband". Seriously, bout 25 seconds in. Is that what is said to someone you believe committed sexual assault unpunished??? I think not.
And her lawyers... A DiFi referral, Debra Katz is a far left activist. It's a cozy little circle you see.
Even Ray Charles can see the Doctors lawyers and senate democrats were coordinating to maximize the effect in delaying... And he's blind and dead (democrat voting base 🤣)
It's all very sleezey and incestuous.
Make no mistake, no matter the nominee, all hell was going to break loose. This article, for example, was published BEFORE Kavanaugh was even named as the pick mashable.com/article/trump-…
Here is Minority Leader Schumer's statement released MERE MINUTES after Kavanaugh was named on 7/10. cbsnews.com/news/sen-chuck…
Pelosi releases this moments later on the day Kavanaugh is named. The democrats are incapable of feigning objectivity. It's rather pathetic IMO democraticleader.gov/newsroom/7918-…
When anyone bothers to reveal their intentions, it is wise to believe them. What we have here is opposition with "everything they got". Oldest trick in the book. Effective more often than not. Ask Herman Cain. The other accusers are so obsurd I won't dignify with addressing them.
As most of us expected, Brett Cavanaugh was confirmed as the 114th Supreme Court Justice.
After a particularly contentious confirmation process rife with rumor, innuendo and salacious accusations: largely described “palace intrigue” in the mass market media.
The notable decline in decorum with regard to judicial nominees within the united states senate has not gone unnoticed.
The correspondents were discussing whether there was a need to fundamentally change the senate or the Judicial confirmation process at least.
Of course my reflex reaction is: NO! Often reflex reactions can be wrong.
With little doubt do we have the same idea.
The talking heads would probably want to further bastardize the senate in some shape or form.
🤣 That's hilarious. So this clown chimes in with this snarky comment. The irony is, it is she that is the partisan hack that doesn't know what she's talking about.
I noted Holder to be first cabinet official held in contempt of congress (fact BTW)
I promptly respond, using partisan sources, her partisan sources... @nytimes and @politico to show her her error. I love when cocky idiots step to me, it's great!
A concern my father expressed with the Michigan election... and he has a point.
Given it's not exclusive, however, this proposal will bring every beatnik leftist wanna be kid to the poles in droves...
I'm not knocking it... I probably support this and had a living off the care giver laws. I am watching the small guy getting run over and people that sold major wieght for years become "legitimized" taking over much of the industry here.
For example most grow stores, especially ME owned, have massive illegal grows behind them, same with dispensaries. I've watched one major player criminal after the next step into these roles because they have the cash.
@JohnJamesMI rocking ya out until election day. 👍🦅🗽🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
For God & County!
However, I don't really wear ball caps anymore (good for that pic) ... Mainly the #MAGA stays on my armoire. 🇺🇸 But is on hand for special events. Procured from the Washington MI rally.
My favorite 2 flags are featured in each pic too! 🇺🇸🦅
First is my Mount Vernon flag, named because it was first flown on the flag pole of Washington's estate. Forget the day, the certificate is particularly in frame. This flag has been bannered in my home office ever since.
I was watching a 1977 episode of 'Soap' last night, this program could not be produced today. Not because Billy Crystal's gay character was concidering a sex change, attempted suicide, then opted against the sex change... No, this scene cought my attention... 👇
