Reading the article.
She never claimed to have first-hand knowledge.
She claimed to hear "buzz" at school about what happened.
I don't see the conflict.

sorry about your reading comprehension skills, that or you just wish to perpetuate democrat lies....

That's different from what Miranda wrote Wednesday in a now-deleted Facebook post that stated definitively, "The incident DID happen, many of us heard about it in school."

What part of "the incident did happen" did you miss???

funny but not really that you "don't see the conflict"....

Saying that she heard about it at school at the time

And

Not knowing if it actually happened or not

Are not mutually exclusive truths.

I think the FBI should talk to her and sort it out.

yeah....
cause thats what the fbi does and stuff...
yeah....
they investigate random lies on facebook....
yeah....

Regarding background checks on lifetime appointed Supreme Court Justices?

Yes, they do exactly that. All day long.

The President flips the on off switch for Background checks.

Pres. Bush Sr. told the FBI to follow up on the Anita Hill allegations.

That is the way it works.

If all of this is BS then why is the GOP terrified of having the FBI declare it BS?

it took FBI 3 days to follow up on the Anita Hill allegations

And her story remains consistent.

She has acknowledged that her certainty was not soundly premised as it was based on "many of us heard about it in school".

She hasn't changed her story, just clarified she did not have first-hand knowledge.

You seem willfully confused on the matter.

Active background checks absolutely include social media.

Try posting about bombing federal buildings and then apply to be a postman.

It is weird the debates about basic reality that go on with Trumpites.

lol
her story is consistent eh?
www.npr.org...
even your trusty lefty npr says no to that load of bovine excrement

"That it happened or not, I have no idea," Cristina King Miranda told NPR's Nina Totenberg. "I can't say that it did or didn't." That's different from what Miranda wrote Wednesday in a now-deleted Facebook post that stated definitively, "The incident DID happen, many of us heard about it in school."

now you are just willfully backing lies for no more than partisan politics

are you a russian troll?

And all of that is inherently immaterial to the question at hand. Anything that happened back when cannot be prosecuted. The worst the allegations can do is cast some doubt on Kavanaugh's integrity. In order for that to happen, the accuser has the responsibility to accuse in a formal setting. If she does not, that is prima facie evidence that there is no credible accusation of impropriety, and the confirmation vote should continue without delay.

If she does formally accuse Monday, then that accusation along with Kavanaugh's rebuttal should be considered together and a confirmation vote taken without delay.

Interesting (and sad) wrinkle to the story:
Why Christine Blasey Ford's High School Yearbooks were scrubbed: Faculty Approved Racism, Binge Drinking and Promiscuity

Archived copies of the scrubbed yearbook are issuu.com...&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=ca" target="_blank" class="postlink"> here.
Its not a pretty picture.

ETA: My apologies for not being able to get the archive link to format properly... I really tried!

the gop has the majority in the senate they can do as they wish
if they want to keep their seats i would suggest moving this out of committee and taking a full senate vote in a timely manor

these claims against kavanaugh are not even worth an extra hearing

a reply to: Boadicea

wow
that seems like a nice group of young ladies......

a reply to: shooterbrody

Sad, isn't it? Youth is always the best excuse... But there is no excuse for the adults -- the faculty -- that allowed this.

What part of she said in her post that the Kavanaugh incident did happen, and then back tracked and said she is not sure if it happened do you not understand?

Thanks to a Whistle-blower, we now know why Christine Ford's Year Book information was removed from the Internet a few days ago.

truepundit.com...

The FBI SHOULD investigate. HER!

Wow!!
That's very interesting.

Just in case people do not click through to the full article: here it is

If Ford wishes to and agrees to show up, it is proper to hear her out. A credible accusation would go toward Kavanaugh's mentality during that time period. I don't know how much it would sway any potential votes, as both parties were juveniles in a drinking scene.

The thing that troubles me is the attempt to delay instead of getting the accusation on the record in a timely manner. Ford had a week to prepare; apparently she has spent that week instead on making excuses. The hearing Monday could have been included in the regular confirmation hearings; Feinstein saw to it that such was not possible.

So while it behooves the Senate to offer to hear her out Monday, delaying the vote beyond Tuesday is completely inappropriate and reflects badly on a Senate GOP that already is on shaky ground with voters due to a perceived lack of a backbone.

some of that is pretty rough
seems they got exactly what they paid for
interesting to see someone from that background perhaps "not being able to remember" an assault date or crime scene?

why she cant even remember the date of the alleged assault or the scene of the alleged crime, i doubt a police department would even take a report without, you know, actual facts

A credible accusation would go toward Kavanaugh's mentality during that time period. I don't know how much it would sway any potential votes, as both parties were juveniles in a drinking scene.

ok so now we will vet everyone from what they did as children? is that a precedent we want to set? i dont think so

I am tired of dancing around this, it was an ambush attempt when they saw all other efforts fail.
Feinstein held the evidence and leaked it to the press and she should be voted out of office.
Dems that participate in this farce have no integrity. Their party severely lacks leadership and will pay for it at the polls in nov.

I did not really care if ford or Kavanaugh boozed it up in high school

It is irrelevant to the accusation to me

However, it is interesting if this yearbook was attempted to be scrubbed

After seeing the yearbook, it's sure not surprising... Pretty much expected. And appalling. I don't even know how wrap my head around this. After this, nothing will surprise me.

My guess is the school itself scrubbed it since they likely came under some fire. That or Fords attorneys told them to scrub it.

It is pretty bad actually. Hard to believe a school yearbook in the 80's would have allowed that stuff in it.
