Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh has pointed to his high school calendars as a key piece of evidence that proves he couldn’t possibly have attended the gathering where Christine Blasey Ford has accused him of sexually assaulting her. As the argument goes, if Kavanaugh didn’t put an event on his calendar, he simply wasn’t there. “If the party described by Dr. Ford happened in the summer of 1982 on a weekend night, my calendar shows all but definitively that I was not there,” he said during opening remarks at a Thursday hearing focused on sexual misconduct allegations against him. (He denies these allegations.)

The calendar doesn’t illustrate much except that he spent a lot of time hanging out with friends, Vox’s Tara Golshan writes. Upon closer analysis, however, one of the events detailed on it could possibly serve as evidence — not for him, but against him.

As the Washington Post notes, Arizona prosecutor Rachel Mitchell — the attorney who questioned both Ford and Kavanaugh — ended up highlighting an interesting connection between a July 1 entry in Kavanaugh’s calendar and the account that Ford has provided regarding the evening of her assault.

I wonder if the house in question, had a swimming pool. That could mean nothing at all, except her saying she was in a swimsuit.

So the house would be Tim Gaudette's? Which house was that at that time?

[TomSea]

I'd have to see how many other times, Kavanaugh refers to brewskis if he was such a partier. This is a stretch but could pan out.

No, she testified that she had just come from the country club.

What assault????  This was high school....this is all a NON-EVENT.

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

So all these witnesses are all lying then?

Very good point. If all women have to be believed, why is Ford's testimony more honest than her friend's testimony? She has basically accused her friend of lying.

No, she testified that she had just come from the country club.

How did FFFFFord get from the country club to the house?

Ford forgot that part.  She forgot where the house is, too.  But she does know that the bathroom of that house happens to be upstairs and that she drank only one beer the entire evening.

The house from the calendar is eleven miles from the Columbia Country Club, and one of the few things Ford is certain of is that the house (where she claims the " gathering" was) was near the club.

With Ford and her lawyers poring over Kavanaugh's calendars I'm surprised it took them this long to finally come up with that date. Watch how certain she becomes that the deed happened on July 1.

Those recovered memories are a living, breathing thing.

This is going to be my stock response to anyone who wants to argue with me about this case - 'so what, it was high school. big deal'.
