Hey lib, why don't you?

Did Booker hold his hand over the drunk girls mouth so people couldn't hear her screams while his buddy barred the door shut? That seems like an important difference that you hadn't mentioned.  I haven't read the Booker thing tho so maybe Booker did do that and libs just don't care which would be pretty disgusting.

Daxflection and daxfuscation it is...

FBI already conducted a background check on Kav.  Seems like local law enforcement should be investigating the assault.

Okay, well, you're describing acts as proclaimed by one potential perpetrator in one case, and by one accuser in another.   

But I'm talking in terms of the differences in our political process.

Crimes, even felony convictions have no legal impact (albeit I'd have to look up something like Treason) as to whether someone can hold a seat in Congress.   Whereas even the hint of impropriety can prevent someone from obtaining/being confirmed to an appointed position because background checks and confirmation hearings are in play.

So you're mad that credible sexual abuse allegations may derail a scotus nomination because it's totally unfair when known serial sexual abuser Don trump can be elected president?  Yikes

Personally I'd direct that anger at the people who vote for serial sexual abusers like Don trump instead of the confirmation process.

Well, that's    coming from a guy in a party that made a sexual predator and his facilitating wife pillars of the movement.  Too the point they nearly put the facilitating wife and the sexual predator BACK in the White House. 

Not mad about the process either.   I'm more    at LibBots such as yourself who completely dismiss the politics of this . . . which is typical.

What about the allegations makes them credible?  Or do you just mean not discredited?

The therapist's notes lead me to believe that something happened to Ford with someone from her school. The only point of contention to me is if you think she's just lying that it was kavdawg. I see no reason why she would lie about it. It's not "beyond reasonable doubt" (and doesn't need to be), but credible imo

[catastrophe]

I forgot there was a lie detector test as well.  That certainly helps.

Sure the two most likely scenarios are that either she is lying or Kav is.  It is also possible that the event was real and she did not clearly identify the assailants when it happened but over time came to believe it was Kav and his bud either because she started seeing his name on FB or in the news (he's been on the second highest court since 2006).  Especially for people in therapy, there is a very real possibility of someone "recalling" an event from the distant past and being convinced of it even if it never happened.

Way too super long to read all the way through, but this link contains some interesting stuff about false memories and potential link to PTSD: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5665161/

Politically, dumping kavdawg and motivating the kdub wing of the maga horde out to vote in the midterms to save the replacement nomination is probably the best play. It's really weird how dug in they are for someone who's views are easily found in other candidates without the lying and sexual abuse. Of course they did this with trump too, so maybe those are just positive attributes to magapublicans

I hope everyone would agree that the government shouldn't shut down its business everytime some person makes vague accusations of a 35-year old assault and conditions her testimony on an fbi investigation.

I mean, we all agree that's an utterly absurd proposition, right?

 Like, why in the hell would the fbi investigate a state crime in the first place, let alone need to conduct and complete an investigation before the testimony is given?

The therapist’s notes and her story don’t even line up, which she says is an error on her therapists part. I think it’s fair game for her to testify and have that be part of the consideration but if she won’t testify then it’s time to move on.

[catastrophe]

I mean, I’d be pretty upset if they just pulled the nomination.

If Kav is telling the truth, it would be pretty shitty to have this accusation hanging over his head (he’d still be a pretty big time judge) without some kind of resolution.

If Ford is telling the truth, it would be pretty shitty to act like an attempted rape doesn’t matter anymore because he won’t be a SCOTUS Justice.

Either way I feel like we’re at a point where a resolution is warranted. I don’t fault Republicans for seeking a short timeframe given that Ford refused to go public until near the very end of the process and (AFAIK) did not even anonymously make similar allegations during his confirmation to the Nation’s second highest court.

Guilty until proven innocent. The neo-fascist libtard mantra.

There's literally nothing that corroborates this hatchet job story, and she's too chickenshit to testify. I'd say the demotards overplayed their hand (9 of clubs high) and are now looking at civil or even criminal liability for bringing this lunatic into the fold.

I'm certain that fsd would defend Bill Clinton's innocence as well.

That's fine with me

She deserves to be believed is not evidence, psychopaths. It's a battle cry.

You are a rapist and I deserve to be believed, plus you're on a bbs with katdaddy, so clearly you're a rapist.
