Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans released a letter from 65 women who said they knew the nominee in high school and vouched for his character, saying he always treated women with ”decency and respect.”This is awesome news. I stand with the women. ;-) LMAO
Politico contacted all the women on the letter to see if they still stood behind Kavanaugh in light of Ford’s allegations, and so far just two have said they did.
you know what? there's no burden of proof at all. the Members can vote down Kavanaugh for having an eyebrow hair out of line. this is strictly a tit-for-tat Hearing at this point. sure, they will continue the Dog-and-Pony show, because it is required, but out of 100 Senators, there are 100 that know exactly the game that is being played, and it is exactly how I outlined earlier.

For it to be a Criminal investigation then you need a victim, physical evidence, testimonials ect. So yeah , I agree with your post.
Ohh in case yall didnt know Chuck Grassley oops I meant Chuck Assley paraded out 65 women to sign a letter in support of rape attempter Kav. Here's the latest:Ha! well, to be fair, just because only 2 have stood by their support so far, it doesn't mean many more would not. but what it does mean is that even if all 65 vociferously support Kavanaugh, it doesn't mean a God Damn thing. this type of behavior that Kavanaugh participated, allegedly, is a crime of opportunity. throw in some alcohol, along with a rowdy party and a chance out-of-site window to maneuver, and Kavanaugh turns into an Octopus. he may be Mr. Church Choir Boy, but give him that 5 minutes of opportunity, and he would welcome Satan with open arms.

Look at how they framed the question. They should have asked each woman if she wanted to withdraw her support, not confirm it. There is a big difference. Many of the women probably just want to wait and see at this point - and would have said "no" to the former question.
That's a lot of writing with no credibility behind it. Ok so you don't want Kavanagh appointed to the Supreme Court, ok I get it. The problem is there's a burden of proof still at hand. It's not enough to just say something happened over three decades ago. These allegations are nothing more than a political maneuver. If Kavanagh wasn't in the position he's in to be nominated to the Supreme court this animated rape story never would have surfaced, because it wouldn't have any impact, because it didn't even happen. So deal with that.That's why they pulled it. Better to "try it in the court of public opinion" than on the floor of the Senate. The other reason why they waited was so Social Media etc could be scrubbed.

Another prediction: if this accusation doesn't get traction, Dems will either whisper of another "assaultee" or come up with another actual person. Originally Posted by gnadfly... with his signature in her year book! Like ...

Total unprovable BS. Claims that Kavanugh was drunk leads to a legitimate question of whether SHE was also drunk. Yet another "I never told anybody til now because I can get on the news" moment. Won't hold up the vote and won't stop his confirmation. Originally Posted by Lantern2814

The only saving grace might be the ages, as all were high school students.
It's a shame. But this is the world we live in. From now on, every man of influence or power will be subject to scrutiny of the things he did for his entire life of accountability. Originally Posted by Jackie S

He didn't call her back again, not ever. After about eight weeks the police called and told him to come in for an interview - she had charged him with rape, the night of the second date.
He called an attorney who went to the interview with the guy. He instructed the guy not say a single word, nothing at all. The attorney and the guy listened to the lady cop tell her story and lie about having a rape kit and test results with DNA. When the cop finished, the attorney said "we have no statement to make at this time". The attorney and the guy left.
That was the last they heard about the situation.
The moral of the story is that cops and women lie. Keep your mouth shut and walk away without looking back. Originally Posted by Karl Childers
