This twitter comment sums it up perfectly.
So to summarize, a confessed serial sexual predator nominated a man who is credibly accused of attempted rape to be the key vote to strip women of reproductive freedom.
Spare me the usual leftie lingo & labels; I can tune into MSNBC for that nonsense.
Is it WRONG to report a crime? Does it help women if you DON’T report a crime? Does it help keep a criminal off the streets/off the bench if you DON’T report a crime? Does it help prevent a rapist from violating other victims if you DON’T report a crime? I refuse to apologize for feeling that NOT reporting a serious crime such as assault or rape is a selfish decision, for all of the reasons I stated above. Mind you, I’m NOT saying it’s a wrong decision for the victim, but it is a selfish decision, nonetheless.
FWIW @cmd2014
I believe her. I hope everyone will write their senators and demand they stop assuming every woman is a liar and BELIEVE women. I have written mine tonight. My thoughts are with the brave woman who has had to uproot her family. I believe her.
kanvanaugh has not taken a polygraph and he has hired a lawyer. He is trying to follow trumps playbook - deny deny deny. His previous lies and current actions speak so loud I cannot believe a word he says.
So, Stormy is Russian? in the Dimms opinion = Russian collusion?.Yup, you're totally right. There's no case, no guilty pleas, no special council.
Thanks for describing a liberal. FYI, The top 3 richest person in the world is white, male and liberal.Be wealthy enough, white enough, and male enough in the US, and you can do whatever you want (even shoot someone on 5th Avenue) and people will turn a blind eye.
@the_mother_thingHow would you feel if Ms Ford were your mother or your daughter? Would you want this man on the Supreme Court?
IUntil women stop being so brainwashed in the cult of men being more credible, more important, more *valuable,* we will keep ourselves down in this muck.
So brave as this woman is, credible as she may be, this will mean nothing. If the kid who was so drunk that he couldn’t stand upright can’t remember anything happening, we should believe him when he says that nothing happened, right? If Kavanuagh is never polygraphed but denies that this happened, we should believe him too, right? Because we shouldn’t ‘ruin’ men’s all important narcissistic pursuit of (insert high status activity of some kind here) because of the inconvenience of there having been women who were hurt and victimized by them. Yeah, that’s right, because they’re men. So they count more.
Liars who fudge polygraphs usually ask the FBI to investigate the case they’re lying about.Also, regarding this polygraph (since some are hanging their belief in Ford on that tidbit), it’s not clear that Ford ‘passed’. All I have seen was this statement in the WaPo article: "The results, which Katz provided to The Post, concluded that Ford was being truthful when she said a statement summarizing her allegations was accurate."
That does not mean ‘she passed’ to me. It reads to me the test found one statement Ford made to be accurate. What exactly was that statement? What about the rest of her statements, what were those results, and why didn’t WaPo publish them in their entirety since they have them? Or did they publish them somewhere, and I missed them?
We need ALL the facts; not just the ones cherry picked by the accuser’s attorney.
I actually think everyone believes her. Including the Republicans and every one of those 65 women who wrote the letter of support for Kavanuagh. I also think that it won’t matter. Just like everyone believed the allegations against Trump, and it did not matter. Be wealthy enough, white enough, and male enough in the US, and you can do whatever you want (even shoot someone on 5th Avenue) and people will turn a blind eye.

I don't get how anyone can not believe this woman. What does she POSSIBLY have to gain by by coming forward? Fleeing her home because her family has been threatened? Being called a liar by people on the SENATE- the people who run our country? What? TELL me why she would lie?
No one who voted for Trump cares about the repercussions of sexual asssult, preventing it, or protecting women from men who strip their right to choose away. So none of this will actually matter is correct.
Keep beating that drum; it’s fared so well the last two years.
Making this about politics like you and Dems do just perpetuates the very thing you complain about, and is exactly why people are skeptical of Ford’s story ... so keep wearing the usual self-righteous flare while casting the usual, hypocritical misandristic drivel.
Contrary to you/dems’ thinking, having a vagina does NOT make you right, better, or more deserving of fairness or equality under the law.

@AGBF I’m glad more women are moving into these positions, but at the same time, the country is MORE divided, not only along ethnic lines, but now also by gender. Maybe you & others relish in that kind of ‘America’, but I do not. I am all for equality, but what you & others here preach is not ‘equal’ at all. It’s clear with every post that you/others view men collectively as scum, and ‘white old men’ as even scummier. Imagine that same sentiment shared about ‘white old women’, which I imagine would comprise many here. My guess is you’d be a little offended.
Let the Garland saga die already ... along with the emails, Benghazi and other historical events.
Ford wanted an opportunity to tell her story; the committee offered her that opportunity on Monday in her choice of a private or public hearing. Not good enough for you that they provided exactly what she asked for. Now she’s pushing for an investigation which she and Dems know (and hope) will delay the nomination. Typical of the left ... SSDD. If she really wants to be heard, she’ll show up and speak. If she doesn’t, it’ll be obvious this is just another typical liberal stunt in a long list of stunts, just further validating why people voted the way they did two years ago, and will fuel them to re-elect Trump in 2020. And it will certainly discredit Ford and likely impact her down the road in many ways that the Dems will quickly forget about once this cloud passes.

I've never been warned or banned or had MY comments edited on this site, so I'd say I'm faring quite well!
It’s interesting that you base your idea of ‘personal success’ on what happens on an Internet forum. Most people I know (myself included) have higher standards for themselves ... perhaps because there appears to be a correlation between having low standards for oneself and how their cards typically fall in life.
Yeah. In my opinion you get away with quite a bit. Enjoy it. I see you for what you are.I've never been warned or banned or had MY comments edited on this site, so I'd say I'm faring quite well!
The country may be more divided, but not along sex lines (gender refers to grammar). The Republican Party is flipping out because women are becoming more and more united against the policies of the current Republican Party. Hadn't you heard? No one told you about their fear of the loss of "suburban white women", Jenn?
The kind of "equality" you believe in is not mine. You want women to be like men. You do not accept women as women. You want women to act like soldiers in the military.
I actually understand men. Having had men in psychotherapy with me for long periods of time, I have been able to understand some of them deeply and care for them. But, yes, I hate what some of them in mobs do.
And by the way, I would be delighted if there old white women in the Senate, but, alas, there have been too few women elected to Congress for there to be any. Maybe Dianne Feinstein qualifies as one. I hope many more women age in the Senate and become legends there, and not only white ones.
