Did you watch the hearing this week with Judge Kavanaugh and Doctor Ford? If so, what was your reaction? Did either change your mind after listening to them?
It is no secret that I am a supporter of the Judge. With that acknowledged, I went into the hearings with as much of an open mind as I possibly could. I was genuinely interested in hearing from Ford and I didn’t miss one second of her testimony.
All of the Senators and most of the talking heads said they believed something had happened to her. Those on the Left believed everything she said (predictable). Those on the right said they believed the Judge, also predictable. If you ask me, neither left or the right give a hoot about Dr. Ford, they care about reelection, so they tippy toed around their true feelings.
Well, I am not up for election and this post will ensure I never am. Here is my take. Doctor Ford came across to me as someone who spent a week or more role playing and being lead down the exact precise path her democratic handlers wanted her to travel.
Never once during her testimony was I moved. I never felt sorry for her. The lack of memory she claims to have is just too much for me to believe. She didn’t know how she got to the house or even where the house was. She didn’t know how she got home after the incident. The Judge was on top of her, with his hand over her mouth to keep her quiet. She feared he would accidently kill her. The Judge’s friend (who by the way denies all of this) who was also in the room was jumping on the bed and that caused her and the Judge to fall off the bed allowing her to escape. She got up and ran into a nearby bathroom and locked herself in. She heard both the judge and his friend laughing as they left and went back downstairs to join the party. The party with no music according to Ford. After a short time she left the bathroom, and “escaped” from the house. That’s all she can remember. Doesn’t know where the house was, what day it was, what time it was but pretty sure it was in the summer. The only thing she remembers about the room is that the bed was on the left. She never told anyone about this until 2012 when she and her husband went to couples therapy because they were having problems during a remodel of their home. She wanted two front doors; I guess he didn’t (who would). She wanted two doors because of the high school incident, and she wanted another door to escape from in case something like this ever happened again. During her testimony she laughed while explaining the Google students use that door when coming to the house to study. I thought that was a bit weird. Is that the real reason for the second door? When asked about the polygraph test, she said it took a long time. She remembered being hooked up to wires and answering many questions. The polygraph person asked her only two questions. She has more degrees than the average lifetime student yet we were to believe she really doesn’t understand how polygraphs work. She couldn’t come and testify the week before because she is afraid to fly. We learned at the hearing that she flies all the time. Ok, people are afraid to fly but they do it. I get that, but the excuse was dishonest. When asked if she knew the Senators had offered to come to her house and interview her she said she wasn’t aware of that and said that would have been much better. Either she is lying about that or her democratic attorneys never told her. When asked if she paid for the polygraph she said she didn’t know. Another lie. She knows damn well she isn’t paying for anything. As of this writing she has over $900,000 in GoFundMe funds. Who’s donating? She claimed she doesn’t really know how that works (GoFundMe). Again this is a well-educated person, I don’t believe her. All of her social media had been wiped clean just prior to her coming out. Why? All of the people she listed as being at the party have been contacted and none of them, none of them remember the party or have any knowledge of this incident. This includes her best childhood friend.
I am sorry, enough is enough. You cannot make a charge like this without at least having some evidence, any evidence. She has none. We are asked to simply believe her. I can’t and won’t.
As for the Judge. I tried to think what it would be like if someone did this to me. How would I feel, how would I react? Well, The Judge reacted in the very same way that I believe I would have reacted. Mad, not mad, pissed off. His testimony moved me to tears. The look on his wife’s face sitting behind him as he spoke hurt my heart. Why weren’t Dr. Ford’s parents and husband at the hearing supporting her? This is a big deal, right? Wouldn’t you want those closest to you by your side? I would. When the Judge spoke about his mom and dad, who were both in attendance, he broke down. He could hardly breathe. Ford had times during her testimony where she smiled and even laughed. When the Judge told the story of his family and him praying and his 10 year old daughter said “we should pray for the women (Ford). He broke down; real tears, real loss of breath. He had reasonable and believable answers to every question asked of him. He kept a monthly calendar of his daily activities. There was no listing of a party as Ford described.
The man has been accused not only by Ford but two others have now come out; also not surprising. I predicted this in last week’s blog. The last accusation coming from a woman who has hired Stormy Daniel’s attorney, better known by conservatives as the “creepy porn lawyer” claims the Judge was involved in gang rape parties. Not once, not twice, but 10 times. According to the woman, she attended all of them and was the victim of one. She was in college at the time, the Judge was still in high school. Damn, none of the college girls ever came to any parties I went to in high school. So, we are to believe she was gang raped at one party but returned to 9 others. Like Ford, we are supposed to just believe this. The Judge of course was outraged. Who wouldn’t be? And once again, not one childhood friend of the Judge knew anything about any of this. Somehow we are supposed to believe the high school kids kept all of this gang raping quiet. I was a high school kid, we couldn’t keep anything quiet. This story is just a made up sleazy story designed to shock everyone who is looking for any reason to delay the Judge being seated. Period.
Any fair minded person cannot possibly believe these women. They tell their stories without even one other person backing them up, without an ounce of evidence. I don’t believe that every woman should be believed. I do believe every woman should be heard. I’m a firm believer we are Innocent until proven guilty. The democrats of course want more investigations. As I said last week, it’s all about delaying the vote in hopes that they take back the Senate in November. It’s so obvious.
Hold on to your hats folks, more people will come out from under their rock to accuse the Judge. The Dems and all their resources are in play. Sadly, the real damage is done. The Judge will now forever be known as the Judge accused of rape. It’s awful.
Meanwhile, pray for the judge and his family. They are living in hell right now, pure hell.
