    Kavanaugh's defenders appear to believe either (1) Ford is lying to keep him off the court and willing to destroy her life in the process. (What's more, she's been preparing the ground for this accusation for years.) or

        (2) She is telling the truth (about her experience), but this is a terrible case of mistaken identity. (1) seems extraordinarily unlikely. As for (2), how common is it to misidentify an assailant who is *already known to you* (i.e. not a stranger)?

        Conversely, assuming he's innocent, how likely is it that Kavanaugh would repeatedly decline to ask for a further FBI investigation (even though this made him look guilty)?

        Willing to destroy her life? You can’t be serious... she’s probably going to get major book deals, get a nice job at some prestigious school... yeah, utterly destroyed

        How cynical. What has she ever done in her life to suggest she is out to sell books or seek the spotlight.

        Mmm. So the death threats and risking her professional reputation are negligible things that pale in comparison to these future benefits you assume she will have?

        No, the fact she waited 30 years and has zero evidence, in fact doesn’t remember any detail, tells me she is lying. What she may gain I can only speculate on.

        I'm not sure she doesn't remember whose house it was, but if that's the case she probably never knew it in the first place. For example someone only says: We're going to a friend's house. Secondly, you clearly know diddly squat about traumatic events.

        Saying you don’t know diddly squat is always the sign of a good argument.

        For a short time their lives become a spectacle, but these women gain in the long run. Anita Hill didn't really lose anything, she went from OU to Berkeley to Heller. She now has more influence than she ever did.

        But the bottom line is, there's no evidence, and we're setting a ridiculous precedent here that rocks the very foundations of justice. Why are we even entertaining this? If we're going to start acting on accusations without evidence, sell the gavels and invest in pitchforks

        Right, how could we ever find a man who hasn’t assaulted a woman in his youth to be a Supreme Court judge?

        At the current rate we'll find none, as women boldly and bravely accuse them of assault, (whatever that means these days), without viable evidence.

        It does not matter who it is. Blind justice means that every person is treated equal under the law, that man, woman, child, poor, rich be treated as equals, so that no person's feelings are more important than anothers. All claims require evidence beyond a reasonable doubt.

        Not investigating credible claims is unacceptable. In the PA foster system, 100% of credible sexual abuse allegations are required to be investigated BY LAW (outcomes vary of course). Should be same for all not just for children.

        If I implied that there should be no investigation, I didn't mean to. In fact, that's what I would have preferred. But Ford never went to the police or the courts. To my knowledge, she first went to Diane Feinstein.

        This isn’t a sentencing hearing - it’s a job interview. She’s a reference.
