    The way Christine Blasey Ford’s story has come out… Anita Hill also wasn’t sure whether to come forward. When she did, she, too, didn’t want to be public. Just wanted to share her info with the committee. Became public when media reports named herhttp://bit.ly/2MBKTZV

        I am horrified. I was a teenager when is Anita Hill spoke out I am now 50 years old and then all over my timeline are excusing what kavanaugh did. Nothing has changed

        Why didn’t Diane Feinstein question Kavanaugh about this during the hearings? She knew about it only to wait until after it was over to bring it up.

        Clarence Thomas was 100% guilty.

        ANITA HILL WOULD HAVE MADE A FAR BETTER SUPREME COURT JUSTICE THAN CLARENCE THOMAS COULD EVER HOPE TO BE .

        All these women have difficult times going public and conservatives trash the hell out of them for delaying and remaining silent for years. The conservatives are stupid & mean-spirited asses who ignore the fear the women have. Then the conservatives trash their stories of pain.

        The fact that the republican party will say "why did she wait so long to come forward?", anyone who has not gone through any type of sexual assault will never know the shame and embarrassment felt by the victim. It ttok me almost 35 yrs. to tell someone about my experience.

        Not exactly. Anita Hill hyped harassment with her friends but details seemed as if she pursued Thomas, it all came down to dirty jokes and a pubic hair on a coke? Similarities maybe women ignored not assaulted. Time will tell.

        Any Senator that just dismisses these charges is not doing their job. They don't even want to question Kavanaugh his friend or Ms. Ford who probably does not want to be "Anita Hilled" Also if they find charges credible can't they pick another Pro-life danger to the environment?

        The last thing America needs is a bookend Supreme Court justice to "Pubic Hair" #ClarenceThomas. #AnitaHill and #ChristineBlaseyFord had nothing personal to gain from coming forward.
