If you think this circus is ridiculous, just wait until President Trump nominates Ginsberg's replacement!

I long for the day.
"The rifle is a weapon. Let there be no mistake about that. It is a tool of power, and thus dependent completely upon the moral stature of its user. It is equally useful in securing meat for the table, destroying group enemies on the battlefield, and resisting tyranny. In fact, it is the only means of resisting tyranny, since a citizenry armed with rifles simply cannot be tyrannized."

Christine Blasey Ford's changing Kavanaugh assault story leaves her short on credibility

Quote
As a sex-crimes prosecutor, Republican questioner Rachel Mitchell is well-positioned to “know it when she
sees it.” But rather than see Ford as a victim of sexual abuse by Kavanaugh, Mitchell saw her as a witness
lacking in credibility. And this conclusion comes from an expert who knows that there are many reasons
victims delay reporting sexual abuse. Mitchell also recognized that victims may legitimately not remember
certain details related to an attack.

But the problem for Ford is not that she doesn’t remember everything: It is that everything she remembers
changes at her convenience.

First, Ford’s testimony that the assault occurred in the summer of 1982, when just 15, conflicted with both
her therapist’s notes and the text message Ford sent to the Washington Post. According to reporter Emma
Brown, Ford claimed she had been assaulted in the mid-1980s; and the therapist’s notes stated Ford had
been the victim of an attempted rape in her late teens. But by that time, Kavanaugh was attending Yale, so
Ford’s recasting of the attack to the summer of 1982 is suspect.

The article goes on to list statement by statement and how the "facts" are fluid each time Ford recounts them.

Reminds me of the old adage: If you just tell the truth, you won't have to remember what you said.

Can't wait.  Gloria Algred already put a press conference together claiming sexual assault for who ever the nominee may be.

While I prefer judge Hardiman, I almost hope it's Amy Coney Barrett or Joan Larsen just to see how the Dems will slut shame them to hell.

Well, we know that by definition by any woman who is a conservative is a "traitor to her sex", thus disqualified from any lifetime judicial appointment, at least, at SCOTUS.

Another theory as to why Ford started cooking up a false allegation charge against Kavanaugh in 2012, the year she told her "therapist" about an unnamed Federal Judge in DC attacking her 30 years earlier.

She may have been worried Romney would defeat Obama in 2012.  Obama wound up appointing 2 Supreme Court justices 2 years earlier and nominating a third in 2016, so her fear would not have been unfounded.

Guess who was on Romney's short list of nominees .....

If liberals can call a black woman (Owens) a racist and won't let her sign an anti-white supremely banner, then liberals can have another female accuse a female for sexual assault.

A picture allegedly of the liar Ford taking the lie detector test has emerged, showing someone else entirely!

What a shock.  It is likely her DOJ/FBI lawyer friend. Monica Lee McLean.  Sure is not the Ford liar.

The swamp never rests...............

How do you reach that conclusion?

The girl in the alleged photo looks more like Ford than the circled friend to the left.

Funny how Feinstein wants the FBI instigation classified.  What info could there be that makes this a national security matter?  They're the ones who called for it.

Wouldn't a law enforcement investigation into a sex assault accusation normally be classified at some level though? Surely an in progress investigation isn't usually made public.

Insurance claims paperwork is kept on file by the insurance company.

If she paid by check, the bank has a record.  She probably still has the checkbook register or duplicate check in that stack.  Nowadays, unless you're totally paranoid, most people stopped using checks and opted for making payments electronically, which means we don't cycle through checkbook registers and duplicates as fast.  I'm sure I have 6-year-old duplicate checks in the current checkbook in my safe.

If she paid by credit card, the card company has a record.

If she paid cash, the therapist has a record.

The patient isn't the only party who needs to keep records.

No doubt that if people went digging a record could probably be found somewhere, what I meant was that the fact she doesn't have it on hand, to me, doesn't make her claim that she saw a counselor less believable. Now if the FBI went digging and couldn't find any proof whatsoever then I would say that there are honesty concerns.
