9. Ramirez admits there are holes in her memory due to how much she drank at the party.
5. Ramirez contacted her former classmates, asking about the incident, and admitted she was not sure that Kavanaugh was the male who exposed himself.
6. A woman who claims she was "best friends" with Ramirez says Ramirez never mentioned the story and initially said her friend's accusations against Kavanaugh might be "politically motivated."
7. Ramirez, just like Christine Blasey Ford, is a registered Democrat and is dedicated to leftist causes

4. A third person that Ramirez claimed was at the party says she was not there for the alleged incident.
2. The New York Times could not find a single person who could corroborate Ramirez's claims.
1. The New Yorker could not find a single witness who could put Kavanaugh at the alleged party
3. The man accused of egging on Kavanaugh denied Ramirez's allegations and vouched for Kavanaugh's character.
I love the smell of triggered in the morning
It might just be left over desperation from November 2016 that you are smelling.
Ducks over here acting like details matter.
You're a lawyer?
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.
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.
A or B seems legally fair to you?
Grassley Spends Weekend Practicing Pretending-to-Listen Face
WASHINGTON —Facing the daunting challenge of appearing to pay attention to a woman’s utterances during a televised hearing, Senator Charles Grassley spent the weekend rehearsing what aides are calling his “pretending to listen” face.
In round-the-clock practice sessions that aides characterized as “excruciating,” the
chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee
struggled to simulate even a trace of interest in what a woman had to say.
“Chuck has never pretended to listen to a woman before,”
an aide said.
“These are uncharted waters.”
According to the aide, Grassley’s fake-listening skills “are rudimentary at best,” and the senator was
able to hold only a semi-attentive facial expression for seven seconds
before it showed unmistakable signs of boredom, irritation, and contempt.
At one point, Grassley reportedly exploded with frustration, bellowing,
“If I’d known that going into politics meant I’d have to listen to women, I’d have become a longshoreman.”
Complicating the mock sessions further was the absence on the Judiciary Committee of any Republican women to whom Grassley could pretend to listen,
forcing Senator Orrin Hatch to step uncomfortably into the role of a woman.

Why Republicans Are Fighting so Hard for Brett Kavanaugh
They could easily replace him with a nominee who would vote exactly the same way on the Supreme Court. But they won't.
So why not replace him?
Part of it is certainly that pulling Kavanaugh's nomination would be a "win" for the other side,
and in an era of negative partisanship when conservatives will burn their own sneakers to own the libs,
anything that would make Democrats pleased is horrifying to them.
since for the last decade the GOP has lived in terror of its own base,
which demands maximal aggression toward Democrats at all times.
the real problem Republicans face this November isn't that their own voters may grow apathetic and stay home,
it's that Democratic voters will become more and more angry and engaged.
But more than that, to defend Kavanaugh is to defend a certain order to the world.
It's one where a man like him—
wealthy parents,
prep school education,
on to Yale,
working for Ken Starr and George W. Bush,
then on to a judgeship
in preparation for his ascent to the high court—
is the rightful wielder of power and influence.
It's one where women know how they're supposed to act and to whom they're supposed to defer.
And if they're sexually assaulted, they're supposed to just deal with it.
This must be stopped before things really get out of hand.
So Republicans are making their stand with Brett Kavanaugh, even in the face of grave political danger.
At the
heart of it all, of course, lies Donald Trump, whose misogyny knows no bounds.
"The antipathy to Trump from women—
college-educated, white, suburban women—
transcends anything I've ever seen in politics,
Republicans will fight this battle for Kavanaugh's sake,
and for the sake of all he represents.
No matter the cost.

Trump is obviously panicking about Kavanaugh not being confirmed, hence the news on Rosenstein this morning.
Another classmate contacted independently remembers the incident very similarly to Ramirez
lets keep going
Kavanaugh has now been accused by multiple women of the same crime.
Cosby's sentencing is today btw.
Avenatti claims to have a group of K victims lined up
Trash's base don't care.
It’s amost like those are reliable news sources
