    ...before today all we had on Ford were a couple of pictures as well as news items and documents...but now seeing her live at the hearing it puts the human element into it...and that's much different.

    Are you finding her not credible?

    ...ummm, your charge goes both ways and is blatantly hypocritical.

    well duh, it's not like you have been credible and unbiased in this forum and your conclusions often show that.

    Amazing that she can not remember two months ago, but ask her about thirty five years ago, and she can nail it...meh, this is a dog and pony show

    Let's try to keep this a discussion instead of going after people we disagree with.

    Funny, because you created an irony loop?

    It is actually funny, though. Watching her testimony, considering her life, the timing, everything, I find her very credible as well. If this were a nominee I wanted, I guarantee I'd support a full FBI investigation, regardless of whether or not the victim were being used as a political tool. I think that's the difference here. It isn't partisanship to many of us (I mean there's a bonus that he's Trump's nomination, don't get me wrong); it's about being a decent fucking human.

    Naw, not a charge, just an observation. And yes, I agree that it goes both ways. That is why I pointed out my opinion as well as observing yours

    It is the nature of trauma, for fuck's sake. And totally fucked not to acknowledge this phenomenon.

    She is being asked to read it and review it. I cracked up when she corrected a grammar mistake in one of her statements.

    ...are you serious?

    ...the incident was a very traumatic experience for her and people tend to remember trauma for the rest of their lives...I'm sure there things from your teenage years that you vividly remember...but I doubt you could remember some events of 2 months ago either...this should not need explaining.

    Exactly, at this point his nomination is tainted without an investigation and if he's innocent he would want it to clear his name.

    There is obviously a stage element to all of this. But imagine being on a live feed to the WORLD. Slightly terrifying.
