“The notes from the therapist claims that four boys were involved, but Ford says that was an error by the therapist, saying that there were four boys at the party.”

Perhaps there were other girls too? Not totally clear in this article

 

Sounds like a sausage "party".  I haven't seen anything that suggests that she was the only girl there.

When Georgetown Prep sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're not sending you. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're

Edit** this version does say 4 boys at party** mea culpa.   I have seen this reporting, this is the same article that every outlet has copied and pasted.

Seems to me there would be someone else to corroborate, at the very least that they were in the same place at the same time.  There is no acknowledgement of what kind of association they had during this time frame.

He can withdraw without admitting wrongdoing. You know, "do what's best for the country blah blah blah".

exactly.  Miers withdrew because of the official reason that they didn't want the fight of releasing her documents from her time as WH counsel.  The real reason was is that no one thought she was qualified outside of her and GWB.

Jesus - just stop.  From WaPO:

Quote

She alleges that Kavanaugh — who played football and basketball at Georgetown Prep — held her down with the weight of his body and fumbled with her clothes, seemingly hindered by his intoxication. Judge stood across the room, she said, and both boys were laughing “maniacally.” She said she yelled, hoping that someone downstairs would hear her over the music, and Kavanaugh clapped his hand over her mouth to silence her.

At one point, she said, Judge jumped on top of them, and she tried unsuccessfully to wriggle free. Then Judge jumped on them again, toppling them, and she broke away, she said.

Definitely sounds like the hero here.  Oh, and love this gem about our hero:

Quote

Judge is a filmmaker and author who has written for the Daily Caller, the Weekly Standard and The Post. He chronicled his recovery from alcoholism in “Wasted: Tales of a Gen-X Drunk,” which described his own blackout drinking and a culture of partying among students at his high school, renamed in the book “Loyola Prep.” Kavanaugh is not mentioned in the book, but a passage about partying at the beach one summer makes glancing reference to a “Bart O’Kavanaugh,” who “puked in someone’s car the other night” and “passed out on his way back from a party.”

You are literally a piece of shit. Innocent people die every year from DUI offenders. And Beto is the worst one, he fled the scene like a little bitch. You are a dipshit if you vote for that subhuman waste as Senator. 

Meanwhile, you are taking 40 year old accusations with a litany of inconsistencies and denials as gospel. You are a fucking moron hypocrite of the highest degree. 

Beto is CONVICTED and Kavanaugh is ACCUSED. Big fucking difference. 

I want this to be clear.  Everyone hates you.  You cast slurs without abandon, rehash talking points, try to claim moral superiority while supporting child predators, racists, and alleged rapists.  You are a piece of shit and you support pieces of shit because you identify with them as your team, meanwhile they cannot help but laugh at you.    You hug a flag while not understanding what it actually means.  Your interpretations are all wrong.  You are the type of idiot that protests the Declaration of Independence.  You have no idea what this country is beyond a place you were lucky enough to be born in.  

ShaggyTexas.com is a great website that would welcome you.

How many people were at this get together?  One of the other attendees should be able to confirm the circumstances and give insight into whether anything was said afterwards, or seemed particularly out of sorts.  Even just confirming that Kavanaugh was there and was plastered should be sufficient corroboration. 
 
 


Easy enough, except for the fact that she is not even sure what year it occurred.

“Ford said she was able to escape when Kavanaugh’s friend and classmate at Georgetown Preparatory School, Mark Judge, jumped on top of them, sending all three tumbling.”

But perhaps your method of intervention between a 17 year old forcing himself on a 15 year old is different than mine.

I would love to hear the background on how they got testimony from 60+ females classmates within a few hours of this story breaking.  Not proof of anything, but that HIGHLY suggests that they knew there was shit in the closet.

What?  Doesn't everyone carry around a  60 person list of signatures from 30+ years ago?

No idea, haven’t put much thought into it before. But going WWE seems pretty dumb.

 I can totally see this going to civil war and I can definitely imagine dying for the right side, which you ain't on

This is a total derail. But I’m genuinely curious how many other people who Ive always considered to be perfectly normal and rational share this sentiment. I read that and every bit of it strikes me as completely insane. But maybe I’m the one who doesn’t have a handle on how people are feeling.

DC Insider buddy has a conspiracy theory....Kavanaugh was a feint all along, and Trump will withdraw him and replace him with a woman. An Eva Braun type, meaning a Nazi. 

That's crazy.  Kavanaugh was a done deal days from confirmation.   And still might be.   Too many moving parts for a plan to have all of this develop like it has.

He thinks the fact that they were about to trot out the binder full of "Kavanaugh didn't rape me" women in 24 hours is deeply suspicious.

So do I, although I don’t subscribe to a theory that this was just a diversion.

It is very odd that they had some letter from 65 women ready to go within a day or so. It’s almost like they expected this.

Even if they had planned a response for that contingency, how could they have been banking on her coming forward?  That said, there was an article explaining the letter of support that seemed legit.   A couple of women emailed the alumni list or whatever, after the initial rumors leaked, and got a bunch of other women to sign on.   Not implausible in the internet era.

Feinstein has had the letter since mid summer. It's not particularly shocking that they would have got a whiff of the existence of the allegation in advance.

I don’t think the Democrats really think they can stop this (or really care), but they know it’s gonna play really well for the midterms and 2020. The Republicans are playing right into the binder-totin’ women-hatin’ image. If they’re smart they’ll scuttle Kavanaugh.

Ford also contacted the WaPo through a tip line in early July when Kav was on a short list before the nomination occurred.
