    "conduit to fame"
    You don't think she'll have a couple of these? She's a professor, she knows how to publish. (and speak)

    So, you don't have any real evidence concerning her motive?
    There are generally no witnesses or evidence for a person's inner drive, unlike sexual assault at a party where multiple are attending. Besides burden's not on me - and shouldn't be on Kavanaugh. She deleted all of her social media before going on this quest - am I allowed to wonder "why"? I can only guess.

    Fine. Any evidence? Corroboration? Also, if we are going to start making decisions based on "consistencies" and"usually" and "probably", we should "probably" consider changing the cons ution and eliminating individual rights all together (ironic since that is what you fear from Kavanaugh). Is it usual for the story to change in the ensuing 5 years after it was first told, and then, amazingly EXACTLY when the person you're accusing is up for the Supreme Court? Got any statistics? Have any cynicism at all?
    Let me ask you this:

    Assume you are a 15 year old girl who is assaulted. You are hurt and ashamed and you think no one will believe you or no one will care. You put up with the whispers and hope that eventually it goes away. the boy moves on, and you resign yourself to keeping it to yourself.

    You see the boy grow into a man, with his own life, and does reasonably well in his life. You have, yourself moved on, and try to get over the trauma.

    Now you see him nominated to the supreme court.

    Your truth is now important.

    Do you now come forward, or keep the fact that a sitting supreme court justice attempted to rape you when you were 15?

    SHE'S DEFINITELY IN IT FOR THE FAME CONDUIT
    Also, Anita Hill has an agent and draws a significant speaking fee. I know lots of professors. None of them do. Yes. Blasse-Ford is forevermore a household name, and a famous person.

    So there is no way she could possibly be honest. She jes wanted det fame conduit and an agent.

    You got it all figured out!

    I might very well come forward. But if there is no-one to back up my claim, I understand that it probably won't go anywhere - I missed my chance, unfortunately.

    No. She might be telling the truth. I was asked what her motive MIGHT be for coming forward. Doesn't matter. No evidence or corroboration.

    Thanks for making my point.
    Yeah why would anyone believe red states would try to effectively end abortion within their boundaries with ridiculous laws to deny access and close clinics when that has been their strategy in recent history? They're just going to stop now that they'd have two extremely sympathetic judges replacing Garland's rightful but empty spot and Kennedy's? Your point is ridiculous.

    So when you said:

    I'm thinking a book, a speaking tour, and I'd be willing to bet a nice slot at the next presidential convention (bookmark this post). She is going to be an icon of the left for years. She lives in ing San Francisco! What does she have to lose? Not a damn thing.
    You didn't actually know, or read anything prior to this that leads you to believe this is the case. Other than the fact she is a "liberal" who lives in San Francisco.

    Is that right?

    I am sure you can. She is a liberal after all, and therefore you think she is a liar it seems on that basis alone.

    Would someone who was afraid of having anything said in her past used as a weapon against her, no matter how innocuous or unrelated, be motivate to delete social media posts?

    (edit)

    I would point out that accusers, no matter how truthful, are often raked over the coals. And in the current political environment, with trolls and all sorts of nutters out there, would a reasonable person expect all sorts of attacks based on anything they said in the past in an attempt to discredit them generally, no matter how unfair or untruthful the attack might be?

    So you're saying that Kavanaugh becoming Justice would have extremely negative consequences for the rights of women?

    Got it.

    That's my point.

    No. What matters is there is no evidence to deny Brett Kavanaugh a supreme court seat based on what she is saying. My hypothesizing about motive is just that. I don't have any evidence of that, either. So don't try her for perjury (after she testifies).

    Your point sounded like a lot of complaining that the liberal professors you know are hysterical when fears about losing the right to abortion in red states is pretty logical.

    I don't know if she's a liar, but the evidence (or lack of it) suggests that she might be. It certainly doesn't prove she's not. I'm not making any determinations on anything "alone".

    white male misogynist privilege in action

    Amid Effort to Ram Kavanaugh Through Senate, House GOP Refusing to Reauthorize Violence Against Women Act

    "Our efforts to combat violence against women should never waiver, should never be pushed to the margins, and should never be delayed or diminished by political gamesmanship or foot dragging."

    none of the party's members have signed on to support a reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), which expires at the end of September.

    House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) has not called for a vote on a full authorization of the the bill, despite calls to do so, including from 46 members of his own party, as well as Democratic leaders and more than 50 attorneys general.

    VAWA has been reauthorized three times since the landmark legislation,

    which was the first federal law to combat domestic violence and has provided grants for victims' services and prevention programs, was first passed in 1994—

    always with bipartisan support.

    As of Tuesday, 163 Democratic members of the House and

    zero Republicans had signed on as co-sponsors of the bill.

    https://www.commondreams.org/news/20...?cd-origin=rss


    Violence against women doesn't expire, why does this act keep expiring? White male privilege

    My point was specifically that the left believes (quite possibly rightly), that Kavanaugh on the court means the end of Roe V. Wade. As a member of the left, we can assume Dr. Ford believes this. Therefore, when I was asked why someone would put herself through what she is putting herself through, I said, "to save Roe vs Wade" (not in so many words).

    The liberal professors are my best friends, btw. I get drunk and debate people a LOT smarter than me all the time.

    The must funny thing is nobody wants to make Kavanaugh pay for his supposed ¨abuse¨, being out of the supreme court is ¨enough¨.

    Sorry I misinterpreted. The word hysteria seems to have connotations that a fear might be misplaced or nonsensical IMO. Maybe I'm wrong for thinking that word implies those things. Shouldn't have slept through my humanities classes tbh.

    Most victims never come forward. Many wait decades.

    Most don't because they think they won't be believed.

    Provide any evidence that waiting for a long time means that the claim is less likely true.
    .
    So they won't be believed until the accused is up for the supreme court?

    Your logic is astounding, .
