    Lying under oath to the FBI is a felony, just ask Cohen, Pappadopolis, Manafort, et al.

    Dr. Ford is more than willing to take that risk and I want to see Mark Judge and Brett Kavanaugh do the same. If nothing comes of it, so be it, but this is a life time appointment and we should take extreme care before deciding.

    And Brett will be under oath. You are aware that over the years he has been investigated, what is it? Five or six times. Nothing like this has ever even had a sniff. Yeah, and I believe lying to congress carries the same penalties

    I don't find her credible. At all.

    ...lol...we've already been through this...and you flat out said that she was "believable"...and when you get right down to it, that's all that matters.

    ...you're complaining like a sore loser...the GOP is getting their ass handed to them while crying that the Dems aren't playing fair...but the Dems have simply taken a page out of the GOP playbook. The shoe is now on the other foot and the GOP and their supporters are acting like spoiled brats who lost the game and are petulantly "taking their ball and going home".

    ...nobody is going to be proven to be a liar much less be charged...this is merely one person's word vs another's.

    I do not trust her memory. If she told me something a week ago, I'd imagine she would have already forgotten what it was.

    Her memory and ability to get specifics from the past 2 months is shaky and unreliable. That is outside the time of the trauma.

    That is obvious. There is nothing that can be proven one way or the other. Even if there was credible proof, how do you prosecute a thirty five year old case?

    FBI has ways of finding out a lot of things such as for example Kavanaugh claiming he was a virgin through high school and most if not all of his college years. If the FBI turned up one person that debunked that claim then Kavanaugh's credibility is completely shot. Now him being or not being a virgin is no big deal but lying about it points to a persons credibility. That is just one of many examples that can be investigated because the selection of a Supreme Court Justice is to make sure the people put in position are credible.

    That last 2 months her life have been chaos. Shes had to move twice. She has dealing with lawyers, the media, the sentate, etc. Anyone under that kind of stress would have a diffcult time remembering everything. Her mind probably hasn't processed the half of it.

    Sure..but remember, she would get all of her past drug around as well. Hell, she did not want to say even who took her to the party..wonder what else there is to hide.....

    and it was obvious over the last couple days from your posts that this conclusion was made before today.

    ...it does not matter in this case what she can remember "2 months ago"...only what she remembers about 36 years ago....but you already knew that, right?


    ...do you not believe men who years before as young boys were sodomized by priests...and who vividly recall who did it and only came forward years later?

    Eye witness testimony is fallible. We all know that. But, that doesn't mean that she is mis-remembering or exaggerating a pretty vivid account of attempted sexual assault. Her description of the event is very specific. It is credible. I believe her. Maybe Kavanaugh doesn't remember the event because he was as drunk as a skunk. Or maybe he's lying. Or maybe it didn't happen. But, I find her composed, forthright, and believable. Maybe she doesn't remember all of the details, but if that is what people are going to be subjected to when they allege sexual assault then maybe ask yourself why people don't report it.
