You're inability to understand this is what makes you a typical US conservative. Congrats on that.

Congrats on putting a label on me. It would have been more appropriate if you told me I didn't understand because I don't have a vagina. This woman turned something she should have called the police over into a political event. I read the letter and it sounds more like horse play then assault.

Try jumping on top of a woman, groping her breasts, and trying to take off her clothes and see how far that gets you today

Funny how you call woman trying to scream and get away, guy covers her mouth as "horseplay".

If you read the letter you refuse to understand.

Yes, that woman should have done something you think she should have done because you don't have a vagina. You also think that a man attempting to rape a woman is horseplay.

Congrats, scumbag.

That letter doesn't say any of that happened...

Here's the letter I read, if there's another one please point me to it.

She said they were both in a 'highly inebriated state' and they jumped on her to the point that the whole pile fell. His hand over her mouth is wrong obviously, but that's assault and rape?

Grow up and put your petulant labels on someone else.

How do you know he was going to rape her? Since you were there please give us the other details like was Mrs Ford also drunk?

You all jump to conclusions just so your 'side' can be victorious without even knowing any details. Cui bono?

If Mrs. Ford was drunk, does that make it half her fault if Kavenaugh attempted to rape her?

Fuck off, scumbag.

Earlier posted, posting it again.
https://www.ted.com/talks/elizabeth_loftus_the_fiction_of_memory

"More precisely, she studies false memories, when people either remember things that didn't happen or remember them differently from the way they really were. It's more common than you might think, and Loftus shares some startling stories and statistics -- and raises some important ethical questions."

Watched a good youtube clip that talked about memories. Have to try and find it. They are a collection of thoughts where our imaginations can fill in the blanks. It is why eye witness testimony is so poor. Dreaming is taking a collage of memories and mashing it together into something that makes sense within the dream. Nobody can explain how the brain stores and retrieves memories. One of lifes great mysteries.

Problem is the timing, was a police report filed back then? If so I would put a LOT more credence on this attempted rape incident. But there seems to be a lot of timing issues where people come out of the woodwork for this stuff. Also, if that study on memories being altered while drunk is true, Kavanaugh may have remembered incorrectly but if she was drunk like he was, she may have remembered it incorrectly too?

We are going on he said she said on something that happened in high school. Nobody’s memories are going to be worth anything, especially not drunk ones. Not a single person doesn’t have some kind of dirt from when they were a kid. Trying to make Saints out of our political leadership is a fools errand. Judge him by his professional life and if the doesn’t pass muster find somebody else.

Your concern for Mrs Ford is heart warming for sure. Did she get your sympathy card?

Trump is really clouding your mind. Why don’t you let the facts become known before you call him an attempted rapist.

If he did the crime he should do the time no matter if his side is a donkey or an elephant.
