To the contrary, you raise them with proper love and attention and they develop good self esteem so as to weed out the assaultive types on their own.

So your point here is that women bring sexual assault upon themselves?

that progress and progressives get screwed is distant secondary, since oligarchy amasses no Capital by screwing progressives politically.

yo CH, this is by no means a jab at you man... did your ex cheat on you or leave you high and dry? i ask because i feel like i remember you claiming something of the sort or maybe you said she just wasn't the one. i could be sorely mistaken and sorry if i am.

It's cool. It became a really toxic relationship, so I walked. I recently found out she passed away late last year, but I don't have any details.


anyhow, what i am getting at is the fact that women, just like men, are capable of being evil sob's who will lie their asses off if given the chance. i don't trust anyone these days because most are liars and will do so to your face. known too many in my lifetime from women to men. i've known a few women who have accused friends in the past of such assault only to be found out to be nothing but fabrication.

there's def truth tellers out there too but i think they're few and far between tbh.

i'd rather just see due process gain a strong hold in this nation again and not this public judge/jury bs we got going on lately.

as for all these accusers... they all just happened to wait till now to come forward and some with ties to far left movements/org's and ties to a certain billionaire too. just so damn fishy.

Of course lots of people lie. What's baffling is that you seem to find Kavanaugh beyond reproach -- what makes you think he isn't a gigantic liar as well? At BEST he obfuscated like crazy while in front of Congress. Why are you not holding lava over his head based on his conduct thus far? Why single out and go after this woman so doggedly instead of holding everyone's feet to the fire? You have to realize how discontinuous your responses are to this situation, at least on some level.

And don't forget about those horrible Duke lacrosse players.


There's enough dirt on Trump. No need to go full Duke lacrosse.


People must feel pretty stupid for rushing to judgement on this one.

I wonder how the Duke Lacrosse team is doing these days?


When all the information has come forward and if it appears that Mr. Gates is at fault, don't you think he has done a serious misservice to minorities who have legitimate cases against the police?

Kinda like the whole Duke lacrosse fiasco?


The Duke Lacrosse team was nat'l news and it was a crime that never even happened.

ames Roche was roommates with Kavanaugh at the time of the alleged incident and is now the C.E.O. of a software company in San Francisco. “Debbie and I became close friends shortly after we both arrived at Yale,” he said. “She stood out as being exceptionally honest and gentle. I cannot imagine her making this up.” He said that he never witnessed Kavanaugh engage in any sexual misconduct, but did recall him being “frequently, incoherently drunk.” He described Ramirez as a vulnerable outsider. “Is it believable that she was alone with a wolfy group of guys who thought it was funny to sexually torment a girl like Debbie? Yeah, definitely. Is it believable that Kavanaugh was one of them? Yes.”

This story was updated with comments from two former classmates of Kavanaugh, Louisa Garry and Dino Ewing, who initially signed a statement of support for Kavanaugh provided by his attorneys. They approached The New Yorker after this story was published and asked that their names be removed from the statement, saying that they did not wish to dispute Ramirez’s claims.

Kavanaugh went to Yale.

There he joined the fraternity Delta Kappa Epsilon, or DKE, which was, according to The Yale Daily News (https://yaledailynews.com/blog/2018/09/20/a-flag-of-underwear-photo-from-kavanaughs-time-shows-dke-hijinks/),

“notorious for disrespecting women.”

(Long after Kavanaugh graduated, the fraternity,

once headed by George W. Bush,

was banned from campus after video emerged of pledges chanting (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-sexual-harassment-yale/yale-punishes-fraternity-for-sexist-chanting-idUSTRE74H06W20110518),

“No Means Yes! Yes Means Anal!”)

Kavanaugh was also a member of an all-male secret society (https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/mollyhensleyclancy/the-yale-secret-society-brett-kavanaugh-joined-was-mostly) called Truth and Courage, which had an obscene nickname affirming its dedication to womanizing.

Kavanaugh went on to become a protégé of appeals court judge Alex Kozinski, for whom he clerked in the early 1990s.

Last year, Kozinski resigned after multiple accusations of sexual harassment by former female clerks and junior staffers;

two said he showed them porn in his office.

The judge’s lewd behavior was, by many accounts, an open secret.

“All the clerks and former clerks in Kozinski’s ambit knew and understood that you assumed the risk and accepted the responsibilities of secrecy,”

His story shows, in lurid microcosm,

how a certain class of men guard and perpetuate their privileges.

Women who struggle ceaselessly to be smart enough,

attractive enough,

ambitious enough and

likable enough

have been playing a rigged game.

As they realize that, their incandescent fury is remaking our politics.

We’ll know things have changed when palling around with sexual abusers carries more stigma than being abused does.

however, i do think ford and the rest are political pawns and their accusations seem ridiculous with little to no info to corroborate. what gets me is the fact these women are coming forward now and not when SpecialK was climbing the ladder up to SC. it all just seems fishy especially when you follow the money and those who are speaking for these "victims".

Gorsuch was not a painful change for the left. He was replacing Scalia, and so that kept status quo. But Kavanaugh is another matter to them because he is replacing Kennedy, the swing vote of the group. Not only is there more urgency to stop him, but there is more urgency to de-legitimize him if he gets on the bench. Moreover, their base demands that they get in the mud and do whatever is necessary to stop this nomination from happening. If the Dems don't, they will hear it from their base.

That's why the Dems are scouring Yale and asking for people to come forward. That's also why they are helping people remember important facts that they forgot, like that Kavanaugh did it and not someone else.

Both sides have used the filibuster. It's pretty stupid to think that only one party used it. Using the filibuster means you have to compromise. But Harry Reid didn't want to compromise, so he got rid of the filibuster, despite being warned of the consequences.

Bitch McC and the Repugs didn't actually filibuster.

Repugs just told the Dems were going filibuster every damn thing Dems wanted, and the Dems folded. 100% obstruction.

THAT's why Reid dropped the filibuster, but only in a limited fashion.

But there was no rule for the timing of the confirmation of Garland. So Mitch didn’t break a rule, he just didn’t follow the norm. Harry Reid changed an actual rule. Point is you are ok with it, if done by Dems. Your stance isn’t on principle, it’s on party.

Washington (CNN)A woman who signed a letter supporting Brett Kavanaugh after he was accused of sexual assault earlier this month called revelations from his high school yearbook that showed he and his friends reportedly boasted about their supposed conquests with her "hurtful," The New York Times reported Monday.

Renate Schroeder Dolphin joined 64 other women this month who signed a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee saying they knew the Supreme Court nominee during their high school years and that "he has behaved honorably and treated women with respect."
However, Kavanaugh included "Renate Alumnius" as an entry in his high school yearbook page, and two of Kavanaugh's classmates told the Times the mentions of "Renate" were part of the high school football players' unsubstantiated boasting about their conquests.

Sounds like a winner to me.

Senate Democrats Investigate a New Allegation of Sexual Misconduct, from Brett Kavanaugh’s College Years
The claim dates to the 1983-84 academic school year, when Kavanaugh was a freshman at Yale University.

The offices of at least four Democratic senators have received information about the allegation,

and at least two have begun investigating it.

(Ramirez identified the two male onlookers, but, at her request, The New Yorker is not naming them.)

A third male student then exposed himself to her. “I remember a penis being in front of my face,” she said.

New Yorker reporters fact-check Brett Kavanaugh’s ‘false’ Fox News interview about sexual assault allegations

Kavanaugh said of the incident, which he denies, “If such a thing had happened, it would have been the talk of the campus.”

at least one witness suggests that the event was talked about on campus in the days afterward.

“And so it was – a classmate who heard about it at the time told me he has thought of it every time he’s heard Kavanaugh’s name – for the last 35 years!” said Mayer (https://twitter.com/JaneMayerNYer/status/1044370396949164032).

“Worth considering [regarding] Kavanaugh’s assertion that all men & women he knew in college consider this ‘inconceivable’: his roommate at the time is on the record saying Ramirez’s claim is credible and consistent with Kavanaugh’s behavior he witnessed,”

The interviewer did, in fact, note that Kavanaugh’s roommate found Ramirez’s allegations credible with. Kavanaugh had no explanation for why his roommate would say this.

Kavanaugh did not allow his wife to answer the question asked to her directly (on Faux news) - if she supported an FBI investigation to clear her husbands name- Kavanaugh interrupted and repeated his "fair process" mantra and then said he would do what the Senate recommended.

In other words - FBI investigation "over my dead body"

Why are they terrified of an FBI investigation - while the accusers are asking for an FBI investigation?

Republican Party Declares Moral Bankruptcy

https://media.newyorker.com/photos/5ba94e17f27f652d85899a79/master/w_1298,c_limit/Borowitz-Republican-Party-Declares-Moral-Bankruptcy.jpg

WASHINGTON —The Republican Party officially filed for moral bankruptcy on Tuesday morning,

a move that many in the nation considered long overdue.

In filing for moral bankruptcy,

the Republicans will formally attest that they have no morals, standards, or ethics on their balance sheet, and

will agree to cease all activity as a political party in exchange for indemnity from any and all legal actions.

Harland Dorrinson, a Washington attorney who specializes in moral bankruptcies, said that, by making its moral vacuum official,

the G.O.P. could theoretically break itself up and sell off the parts, but, he warned, “There are no buyers.”

“From Lindsey Graham to Ted Cruz to Mitch McConnell to Chuck Grassley,

all of the Republican Party’s assets could only be described as toxic,” he said.

“Their breakup value is zero.”

Further complicating such a sale, Dorrinson said, is the fact that

the lion’s share of the Republican Party is already owned by the National Rifle Association, Koch Industries, and the Russian government.

“All of those entities are going to take a major loss on their investment,” he warned.

“The Kochs have been trying to sell Paul Ryan for months, and they can’t give him away.”

While bemoaning the demise of a once legitimate political party, Dorrinson did see one silver lining.

“The bankruptcy of the Republican Party will be presided over by Donald Trump, and no one has more experience in this area,”

he said.

So you are going to ignore the evidence that says humans can tell the truth about something and not remember all the details?


Studies consistently prove that memories are some of the worst evidence to rely on because people commonly mis-remember. Unfortunately, the whole case Ford has involves her memory and no verifiable facts. So that's fine if you want to hid behind her memory, but if she can't point to something verifiable like when and where it happened, then how can you expect people to believe the account? I'm sorry, but just claiming that she is a woman or that it happened is not enough in the real world. In an imaginary liberal world, maybe it's enough to convict and put in prison, but not in the real world.

um... she is a woman. This is what is known in the real world as a "fact", i.e. an objective, verifiable feature of reality. Unlike imaginary conservative world.

Both the accusations thus far are terrible when you look at the details. This lower bar simply opens him up to more attack imo. It's easier to say we had sex than he raped me. It only makes sense to say it if it's true. Even then though it's debatable. To needlessly lie about it to defend against two crumbling accusations would be moronic.

Brett Kavanaugh’s first year roommate—James Roche—has released a statement about the character of the two parties involved.

In it he provides yet another account of

Kavanaugh’s excessive drinking that was noticeable “even by the standards of the time.”

Roche says he became friends with Debbie, who felt out of place amongst the wealthy types like Kavanaugh,

but tried hard to be friendly and get along with everyone.

And while Roche says he was not present during the incident that Ramirez has told the press,

he does not doubt it.

Based on my time with Debbie, I believe her to be unusually honest and straightforward and I cannot imagine her making this up.
Based on my time with Brett, I believe that he and his social circle were capable of the actions that Debbie described.


He says he has nothing more to add and will not be doing interviews, but he makes one thing very clear.


I have shared this information with a small number of reporters who reached out to me directly because Debbie has a right to be heard and I believe her.

You see nothing wrong with how Kavanaugh's alleged victim is being treated? You keep repeating that the FBI has zero to investigate? Seriously?

Ok- just humor us;

(a) You are the alleged sexual assault victims attorney - the defense is telling you - no witnesses, no fbi investigation, no delay -gotta take the stand in 3 days, the jury has made comments regarding your client being "mixed-up" - and have pretty much stated that the accused suspect is pretty much gonna walk. They refused an investigation and said - "it was too long ago - nothing to find there" - there was another WITNESS - but he told the prosecutor "I don't want to testify under oath" and the prosecutor said "ok-sure"
-- Are you happy with this for your victim/client? -- Are the scales of justice evenly applied here?


(b) You are Kavanaughs attorney - the prosecutor is telling you - "he will walk" - the jury has been holding "war room sessions" all week and coaching him on how to answer questions, the prosecutor has disallowed any independent investigation even though the standard practice has always been to allow an fbi background to be completed or re-opened whenever new allegations surface but they winked at you and said "don't worry - the president believes your client and will back you 100%
-- Are you happy being the attorney in this situation?

A or B seems legally fair to you?

Since you are a lawyer.




If I was her attorney (and I'm not a criminal attorney), I would tell her to file a complaint with the Maryland police department. There is no statute of limitations on a rape allegation. I would tell her to have them investigate. Before I went public with the allegation, I would make sure that she could clearly articulate where she was, when it happened, who was there, who's house it was, how she got there, and where she went after. I also wouldn't go to the media and politicize. I would have handled it privately and quietly and if the Maryland police decided there was a case, then it would become public.

But that's not anything close to what happened here because it has been treated like a political hit job. Unfortunately. That's why I tend to think it is a hoax. Answer the questions above, and then I'd see if I change my mind about the allegation.


I noticed you didn't answer the question.

I will ask it again, for Spurs Homer, since you saw fit to ignore a fair question.

Sure, but it's not that simple. By lining up behind him and putting the weight of the president and Congress and double-downing on his character, they're now tied to him.

If they abandon him, it cuts them off at the knees in the primaries. Even losing 1 extra senate seat at this point could be disastrous. They could actually lose the house and senate, which would be have huge ramifications for the foreseeable future.

This is why the current administration is so incompetent. They make a mistake and rather than owning up to it (which would be, you know, the adult thing to do), they muster all their strength, jam their fingers in their ears, and insist that they meant to do the thing that is an idiotic thing to do.

Three new allegations against President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee show the dangers of a hasty process.

The one overriding theme of Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court has been haste, and the three new allegations of sexual misconduct against him that surfaced in the past day—bringing the total to four—suggest a motivation for Republican hurry, as well as demonstrate its dangers.

Sunday evening, The New Yorker reported on allegations by Deborah Ramirez, a woman who attended Yale with Kavanaugh, that he had “exposed himself at a drunken dormitory party, thrust his penis in her face, and caused her to touch it without her consent as she pushed him away.” Later in the evening, Michael Avenatti, the lawyer who represents Stormy Daniels, posted an email laying out allegations that Kavanaugh might have been present at gang rapes in high school organized by a friend. Monday morning, a local paper in Montgomery County, Maryland, reported that police there are examining another allegation from the 1980s.
https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2018/09/kavanaugh-deborah-ramirez-michael-avenatti/571090

At this rate he should stop trying for SCOTUS and seek the Republican nomination for president.

The mileage the democrats could get over Senators putting an actual rapist on the court, despite their protests, would rival Watergate repercussions. I, as a conservative, am willing to take the risk. I am convinced, based on the utter lack of evidence or corroboration, that the charges are baseless.

"not enough evidence".

How can we know about any corroboration without an investigation by the federal agency with that word in it's name?

I suspect ANY nominee will be "flawed" between the time they are nominated, and before they come to a vote. If an admitted 20 something (or later) year old virgin can be labelled a rapist, can you imagine what will happen to a guy with actual game?

He's flawed because he's a partisan scumbag who claims presidents shouldn't be under investigation even though he was part of Ken Starr's team that went after Clinton. I have no idea if the sexual assault allegations are true or not but they wouldn't surprise me given his lack of character.

Seems to me like the only metric for how believable you find a woman's claim is whether the person who did the raping or assault was a Republican.

Then it's just fine with you, because Republicans never do that, and all the claims are always made up. Case closed. You should be on the fucking FBI's payroll. What a genius.

“At the age of 24, I found out I’d be attending a dinner at my boss’s house with Justice Clarence Thomas,” Moira Smith posted from her since-deactivated Facebook account. “I was so incredibly excited to meet him, rough confirmation hearings notwithstanding. He was charming in many ways—giant, booming laugh, charismatic, approachable.”

“But to my complete shock, he groped me while I was setting the table, suggesting I should sit ‘right next to him,’” she said. “When I feebly explained that I’d been assigned to the other table, he groped again…’are you *sure*??’ I said I was and proceeded to keep my distance.”

radio silence.

In 2009 Republicans had plausible deniability that they weren't a nationalist party and were instead a conservative party. After they elected Trump by a landslide over conservatives like Cruz and Kasich it's plain as day though. They elected a guy whose entire early campaign was about scary anti-war government nig's birth certificate and whose later campaign was about Mexicans being rapists and all other kinds of openly racist shit. The Republicans in congress may not be a nationalist bloc yet but the voters sure are so the representatives are going to start following suit as long as Trump is wildly popular with the GOP base.

I thought Franken shouldn't have resigned. The thing he did with the pics was stupid for a grown man, but didn't rise to the level of any harassment. Trump's a fucking cad, a bully, an asshole, a creep and allegedly not good in the sack. But we all knew all of this when he got elected, so the court of public opinion weighs in with a "we don't give a shit - we are buring the flipped apple cart." Moore is one of the creepiest sons of bitches I've read about recently, and the Republicans dodged a bullet with him not getting elected. Him being in Washington would have been gleeful target for Democrats. I watch Hill's testimony on Thomas, and I believe her. I watch Thomas's testimony defending himself, and I believe him. Without more evidence, in my mind, tie goes to the accused.

He addresses the change of heart in the article. Basically he argues that if Clinton hadn't been worried about Paula Fucking Jones, he might have been able to focus on Osama Bin Laden. Also, this opinion/piece was written when Obama was early in his presidency (2009). It might very well be a dog whistle for Trump in choosing Kavanaugh - but it no way condemns Kavanaugh for baiting Trump into it. Just a political argument written by an legal scholar. You can disagree with it, but there is no ulterior motive involved.

With the thousands whohave had interactions with or been in reasonable geographic proximity of Kavanaugh in the past 4 decades, not that tough a hurdle to leap.

Women who are willing to tell the truth don't because they are afraid of the consequences of having their lives destroyed or not being believed. That is what the evidence shows.

They often never report, or wait decades. That is what women telling the truth do.

They often can't remember everything outside of the single traumatic event. That is what women telling the truth do.

If the vast majority of women don't make it up, it is more than reasonable to generally accept any given account as likely true, barring some solid evidence that paints the woman as either solidly delusional or the kind of person who would.

Ford is credible on that basis, and has little motivation to lie.

Kavanaugh has at least as much motivation to lie as she does, more so, because it involves a felony, and he is up for a lifetime appointment to the pinnacle of the legal profession.
