1.  True
2.  True, sort of
3.  Definitely NOT true.  Major disagreement about the number of "attempted rapists."
4.  First I ever heard of a lie detector.  Why would the FBI dismiss it out of hand (as reported by WaPo) then administer a lie detector test?

Her being a liberal democrat and donater to the party had noting to do with her coming forward now.  She just wanted to unburden her mind and move on with her life in California.

I truly believe they was making out and he grabbed her boob several times and she did not want to go further but that was it. Nearly all 17 year old males push the envelope at that age to see how far the young lass will go but stop at assault/rape/sexual assault.

Guys are terrible at that age trying to figure out if a woman wants to go further and plenty of gals allow a squeeze or two but when you tried to go further they stopped all action...confusing as heck to guys at that age.

Because the FBI did not administer the test. It was paid for by some unknown leftist who hired some FORMER FBI agent.

True, but I'd have to see some proof that they knew each other and a good explanation as to why she didn't mention the incident until 2012. Seems she had a life of high achievement and was married and had children. So the hyperbolic claim that she was derailed is a load of crap.

This isn't like a 30 year old DA Putting the moves on a 15 year old in the mall. They were both drunk teenagers and by her own admission, it stopped before anything happened. Could of happened isn't 'did happen'.

FTA:  (I'd like to know why they were in couples therapy .... )

Quote
Ford said she told no one of the incident in any detail until 2012, when she was in couples therapy with her husband. The therapist’s notes, portions of which were provided by Ford and reviewed by The Washington Post, do not mention Kavanaugh’s name but say she reported that she was attacked by students “from an elitist boys’ school” who went on to become “highly respected and high-ranking members of society in Washington.” The notes say four boys were involved, a discrepancy Ford says was an error on the therapist’s part. Ford said there were four boys at the party but only two in the room. 

[...]

In an interview, her husband, Russell Ford, said that in the 2012 sessions, she recounted being trapped in a room with two drunken boys, one of whom pinned her to a bed, molested her and prevented her from screaming. He said he recalled that his wife used Kavanaugh’s last name and voiced concern that Kavanaugh — then a federal judge — might one day be nominated to the Supreme Court.

I wonder if this poor psychologically damaged child, who was never able to get past the event and turned to a life of drugs and never amounted to a thing in life  will go on all the news shows and relive the trauma of that night.....
And spend her new money wisely.

Strangely enough her social media has been scrubbed.

She can't remember the year of the alleged event, whose house it was or how she got there. Her story has lots of holes.

After so many years, Ford said she does not remember some key details of the incident. She said she believes it occurred in the summer of 1982, when she was 15, around the end of her sophomore year at the all-girls Holton-Arms School in Bethesda. Kavanaugh would have been 17 at the end of his junior year at Georgetown Prep.

When did that DA thing happen?  Was it proven, or just unsubstantiated charges that enough Republicans and Briefers believed in order to destroy a career?

Yes, there is an upside.  Now if the Rats refuse they're exposed to even the stupidest Senator in the Stupid Party it's a ploy.  If the Pubbies didn't ask, then that would be treated by the press as a ploy.

I can't remember exact dates of crap I did at that age either. Sopmore-junior senior year really all blended in together. I remember all my prom and homecoming dates but can't remember at what age I took each one.  Late 1970's early 1980's.

"Christine ford is the worst educator I have ever experienced. Avoid taking her class and avoid any interaction with this person. I feel like she has something wrong with her and I am surprised no one has caught this. Also avoid fullerton's MSW program as long as she is there."

Ford also scrubbed all her online accounts even her professional profile on Linked in

I've never met a rape or attempted rape survivor who couldn't tell you in two seconds when it happened, even if 50 years ago.

If they have to drop Kavanaugh it is too late to pick a new candidate and get him/her approved before mid-terms.....and if the rats win we will never get another chance for another conservative judge.

I worry if they do go ahead with the vote Collins will not vote for him now.

I can tell you one thing without waiting:  The press will declare this is fact, and Kavanaugh should step down.  I can here the drums from way out here in the middle of a desert.

Bad optics. Looks like she has something to hide, though I imagine there will be a reason or excuse put forth to justify it.
