i had thought that was settled, but then the NYT runs a piece about a sexual assault, and they left out the minor detail that the alleged victim has no memory of the event. but that’s a minor detail not worth including.

i’m not sure these deranged witch hunts help the democrats, maybe they do.

i also learned that Yales does regularly have “nude parties” where the kids wear no clothes. The students say it leads to more sophisticated conversation. i’m sure. And parents kill themselves to send their children there.

From your post it looks like you don't care about sexual assault. It is a joke how the Admin. told the FBI to investigate. People came forward to state they had info. and the FBI was constrained and couldn't interview them.

The NYT corrected the story I bet that you will bring that up again and again. The witnesses who came forward w/the story stated they doubted she would remember bc she was drunk.

Why not do a good and complete investigation so there isn't a cloud over his head?

sexual assaults. stuff
that appears made up for political purposes, is a little
different from a woman actually getting hurt.

paul, we have two democrat presidential candidates saying he should
be impeached, when the victim isn’t making a complaint, and has reportedly said she doesn’t know if the event took place. that’s probable cause? harris is a prosecutor, and warren is a harvard law professor. they of all people
should know better.

they’re pusses trump won and got to pick two justices. elections have consequences. the gop didn’t do this with kagan or sotomayor.

It is a bit disturbing that a Senator (Cooms) sent a letter to the FBI asking them to talk to witnesses from Yale that apparently was never acted on.

If Garland had moved forward under a similar cloud, and Jim Jordan had sent a similar letter, heads on the right would have exploded....

From what I've heard the new incident had some pretty credible sourcing. Should have been investigated at a min.

The truth is credible people wanted to speak to the FBI and were not allowed to.
The lesson the Senate, the FBI, the president and Kavanaugh sent to victims was: The male perpetrator and his allies can orchestrate, choreograph and curate the process to avoid accountability.

who cares if the victim agrees that the event took place. how about going to the CT police, they have no jurisdiction? or does the Yale University, as well as the CT state government, bend over backwards to protect trump? that makes all
kinds of sense, yale and the state of CT being so conservative.

Even the NYTimes makes mistakes. Difference is a credible outlet corrects the record as they did.

A Senate hearing for a lifetime appointment is not a criminal trial nor should it be.
Confirmation hearings were not intended to be based on the rules of evidence, but on the judgement of Senators, the hundred top ranked elected officials in a coequal branch of government.
It is wiser to err and not confirm than it is to put a person on the Supreme Court for life who, even in appearance, is tainted in some way.
No person is important enough to take that chance.

Even the NYTimes makes mistakes.

if the victim isn’t asking for an investigation, and won’t even concede that the event took place, then i’m not sure there’s anything to investigate.

ahhh, ginsberg and the scotus. that’s what this is all about, obviously. let me start by saying i think garland should
have been given a hearing, and then he should have been rejected. but he wasn’t.

if ginsburg retires, i don’t think the senate should wait. the american people, in free elections, have chosen to give senate control
to the republicans. for 8 years, from 2009 - 2016, obama liked to say that elections have consequences. i agree with him. unlike democrats, i agree with that even when it’s not good for
my personal agenda.

when passing on garland, the gop
senate should not have said its best to wait for the next election. they should have said “ the american people gave senate control to the gop, and that includes responsibility for confirming judges, and no logic would lead anyone to conclude that he people did that, because they wanted Scalia replaced with Garland.”. that’s what they should have said. they didn’t, which means they will look very hypocritical if they try to sneak one in, in 2020. but i hope that’s what happens.

the party that controls the senate, confirms judges. today, that’s the gop.

ginsberg blew it by not retiring when the democrats had the white house and the senate. if trump gets re elected ( unlikely imo but i said that in 2016 too), and the gop keeps the senate, it’s very likely she gets replaced with Amy Barrett. a conservative catholic, and during those conformation hearings, you’ll see just how much democrats like women.

So you must be of the mindset that if the person is not aware something is happening to them it is ok to do it to them and there is no recourse.

Looks like your that low despicable person you ranted about earlier.

Did Kavanaugh repeatedly lie to Congress is the question?

The Supreme Court nominee has been adamant that while he enjoys beer and perhaps at time drank “too many,” it was never to the point of passing out, blacking out, or even causing slight lapses in memory.

He grew “belligerent and aggressive” as a drunk, according to Chad Ludington, one of Kavanaugh’s former classmates.

Liz Swisher, another former Yale classmate “There’s no problem with drinking beer in college. The problem is lying about it.”

In 2004, Kavanaugh said he did not “personally” handle the nomination of Judge William Pryor, who currently sits on the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals (which covers Alabama, Georgia, and Florida).

Kavanaugh, who worked in Bush’s White House counsel office in the early 2000s, distanced himself from Pryor’s nomination in 2004, saying during his own confirmation hearing, “No, I was not involved in handling his nomination.”

Between 2002 and 2003, Kavanaugh is included in several emails referencing the Pryor nomination. In one exchange between Kavanaugh and White House aide Kyle Sampson, Kavanaugh is asked: “How did the Pryor interview go?” He responded, “Call me.” In another email chain, Kavanaugh is included in a conversation about a conference call to “coordinate plans and efforts” around Pryor.

There’s also the case of the improperly obtained Democratic files, detailing strategies for opposing Bush’s judicial nominees in the 2000s, which a Republican Senate aide circulated with White House staff.

In 2004, Kavanaugh claimed that he had never seen “any documents that appeared ... to have been drafted or prepared by Democratic staff members of the Senate Judiciary Committee.” But an email between the Republican staffer and Kavanaugh showed him receiving some of the documents.

Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) asked Kavanaugh directly: “Are Ramirez’s allegations about you true?”

Kavanaugh responded with a little slithery lawyer speak, “None of the witnesses in the room support that. If that had happened, that would have been the talk of campus in our freshman dorm.” And apparently interviewing his dorm-mates is not worth doing.

Everyone in Washington is scum. And it is a result of where they have chosen to spend their professional lives in their working lives, making decisions related to their career advancement, NOT the result of how they spent their social time at college.… I am not about to condone rape, assault, or other morally wrong predation, but... it is the onus of a victim to come forward and state an 'attack' took place, is it not? Given the widespread coverage of the MeToo movement, one would have to think that any woman (or man) who had long ago been the victim of such an attack, that they would have used that platform to come forward...
I was in a large, rowdy, jock fraternity at UMass in the late 70s. Hell, I ended up president of the thing.... So I saw plenty of chit. And dealt with the PD when necessary... The MeToo movement had me racking my memory bank, believe me. Drinking blurs the lines. But heavy alcohol consumption was the norm of the time. This was discussed at a recent funeral of a fraternity brother that was heavily attended by my house and the widow's sorority sisters. We partied and played HARD... But that was not what has made us who we are or have become professionally. And that is what concerns me more when considering a candidate for POTUS, Senate, Congress, SCOTUS or an employee.

I would generally agree. That being said if Kavanaugh responded that way he might have gotten a pass, instead he denied most of everything and made up stories to cover his college days that he documented.

What's even crazier is that he blamed the entire think on a Clinton conspiracy when he was a participant in the Clinton conspiracy era of the 1990s.

Keyser told the writers, “I was told behind the scenes that certain things could spread about me if I didn’t comply,”

Not only did Christine Blasey Ford’s key witness and friend — Leland Keyser — state that she didn’t recall the party where Ford claimed she was assaulted, she also says she doesn’t remember “any others like it.”

“I just really didn’t have confidence in the story.”

keyser shared texts with the fbi, from kavanaugh opponents who threatened to smear the single mom, claiming she was a druggie, if she didn’t back the allegations against kavanaugh.

this is part tds, part warning to any other conservative judges out there to think twice about trying for the supreme court, because they’ll

keyser shared texts with the fbi, from kavanaugh opponents who threatened to smear the single mom, claiming she was a druggie, if she didn’t back the allegations against kavanaugh.

this is part tds, part warning to any other conservative judges out there to think twice about trying for the supreme court, because they’ll
never stop trying to sink their teeth into you.

funny thing, is kavanaugh has shown to be less
conservative than many would like.

And whose supporters issued death threats to Ford, that she shared with the FBI?

Is this supposed to nullify what Keyser said?

you got me. because right up until
this moment, i had always said that all republicans are wonderful
people. i never said otherwise. nope.

Paul, our politics has gotten much uglier since the left turned on Bush. It got worse with Obama, and much worse with Trump, we’ve never seen anything like this.

no, it’s whataboutism. which for reasons i don’t get, is valid when liberals do it, but not when conservatives do it.

The latest kavanaugh claims are a joke, and the NYT made fools of themselves for editing the story the way they did. journalism doesn’t get much more yellow than that.

No, but the converse does not make Keyser's memory or lack thereof true or false.

Did Kavanaugh repeatedly lie to Congress is the question?

The Supreme Court nominee has been adamant that while he enjoys beer and perhaps at time drank “too many,” it was never to the point of passing out, blacking out, or even causing slight lapses in memory.

He grew “belligerent and aggressive” as a drunk, according to Chad Ludington, one of Kavanaugh’s former classmates.

Liz Swisher, another former Yale classmate “There’s no problem with drinking beer in college. The problem is lying about it.”

In 2004, Kavanaugh said he did not “personally” handle the nomination of Judge William Pryor, who currently sits on the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals (which covers Alabama, Georgia, and Florida).

Kavanaugh, who worked in Bush’s White House counsel office in the early 2000s, distanced himself from Pryor’s nomination in 2004, saying during his own confirmation hearing, “No, I was not involved in handling his nomination.”

Between 2002 and 2003, Kavanaugh is included in several emails referencing the Pryor nomination. In one exchange between Kavanaugh and White House aide Kyle Sampson, Kavanaugh is asked: “How did the Pryor interview go?” He responded, “Call me.” In another email chain, Kavanaugh is included in a conversation about a conference call to “coordinate plans and efforts” around Pryor.

There’s also the case of the improperly obtained Democratic files, detailing strategies for opposing Bush’s judicial nominees in the 2000s, which a Republican Senate aide circulated with White House staff.

In 2004, Kavanaugh claimed that he had never seen “any documents that appeared ... to have been drafted or prepared by Democratic staff members of the Senate Judiciary Committee.” But an email between the Republican staffer and Kavanaugh showed him receiving some of the documents.

Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) asked Kavanaugh directly: “Are Ramirez’s allegations about you true?”

Kavanaugh responded with a little slithery lawyer speak, “None of the witnesses in the room support that. If that had happened, that would have been the talk of campus in our freshman dorm.” And apparently interviewing his dorm-mates is not worth doing.

No, but the converse does not make Keyser's memory or lack thereof true or false.

What was Keyser threatened with to change her story?
Would that be impossible for the people who employed Cohen, Stone and Roy Cohn. Paid the Enquirer to buy and kill stories.

The larger problem is that it appears Kavanaugh lied to Congress.

Yeah, that "appears" thing can be a large problem and can lead to a very expensive, waste of precious congressional time spent on things like Russian collusion.

It's ironic to me that lying to Congress is a crime while these reprobates that occupy those congressional seats lie to us in order to get elected, and when they win, they continue to lie to us nearly every time they speak politically. And, if we support them, we understand and accept why they have to lie, just so long as they do it in a skillful, polished, sophisticated manner.

It went right over your head.

So, who successfully threatened her?

Could it possibly be the person or people who employed Cohen, Stone and Roy Cohn. Paid the Enquirer to buy and kill stories.

Classic Trickster move
