That’s your opinion.

That’s just down to personal beliefs.  I’d have a similar reaction if I was falsely accused of attempted rape in such a public manner.

Rachel Mitchell, the only actual experienced sex crimes prosecutor who has talked to Ford and Kavanaugh, explicitly stated that this does not meet the preponderance of evidence standard.

You are either insincere or deeply stupid. It’s not a job interview you nitwit, it is a very public accusation of being a sexual predator that is putting his career and personal life in jeopardy.

Being publicly accused of sexual assault doesn’t ruin your life?

What proof?

So for you, an accusation alone is enough to convict?

You don’t actually know what preponderance of evidence means.

Ford certainly has some suspect testimony.  Her “fear of flying” for example is the most obvious.  It’s breaking now that she also likely lied when she claimed that she had never coached anyone on how to take a polygraph.

I think asking for proof before labeling someone a sexual predator seems both civil and educated.

No, seriously: who are the eight accusers?

No, her accusations against Kavanaugh (waiting in line to rape) imply that she knew what was going on at these parties.

Eight?  Who are you roping in?

Um...are you agreeing with me and being sarcastic, or are you so far removed from liberal values that you honestly think that the burden of proof is on the accused to prove their innocence?

Prove it.

It seems to me that questioning from an experienced lawyer in the field would be the best way to get at the truth of the matter, not grandstanding politicians.

Again, you lie. She’s been asking that the FBI investigate before she testifies, which isn’t an odd request.

You’re either being disingenuous or naive. He doesn’t want an investigation because by the time it was complete and dismissed, the next SCOTUS term would be in session, and his nomination would be in jeopardy if the Senate flips in November. That’s why Ford wanted an investigation before her testimony, and why she’s

1. No, she wants the FBI to investigate before she testifies herself. The Senate has been trying to get her to testify on her terms for a week, and she’s taken every opportunity to avoid the potential of perjuring herself.

The other two individuals at the party dispute the events as well.
