#StopKavanaugh: Believe women, except for the 65 who support Kavanaugh
This was the Democrats last hand and they flubbed it. Badly.
Senate Democrats have redefined “absurdity” since the confirmation hearings for Judge Kavanaugh began ten days ago. With every single antic squashed and mocked, Sen. Feinstein released a super secret letter to the FBI, a letter alleging that 30 some odd years ago, Kavanaugh sexually assaulted a woman.
Blogging on the allegations earlier today, Professor Jacobson wrote, “It’s part of a pattern of unhinged Democrat Senators and their alt-left supporters trying to delegitimize Kavanaugh and a coming conservative Supreme Court.”
In response to the allegations, sixty-five woman who knew Kavanaugh during his high school years quickly put together a letter attesting to his character.
Republicans having 65 signatories ready to go to attest to Kavanaugh’s high school conduct suggests that they too knew about the outlines of these allegations and have chosen strategically to play defense.

Naturally, the credibility of sixty-five woman was questioned, but the accusations of one anonymous woman are to be believed.

Buzzfeed reported on the letter, explaining how quickly it came together. That report is here.
But the best explanation was written by one of the signatories, and published at The Weekly Standard:
On Friday, a group of women who knew Brett in high school sent a letter in support of him to Senators Grassley and Feinstein. I am one of those 65 women. Having seen some of the reaction to the letter, I’d like to clear up a few things:
The letter was conceived and drafted by friends of Brett’s, and it was drafted after allegations came out on Thursday. I learned about the letter from a friend and fellow signatory. Others learned about it the same way. Those surprised at the speed with which it came together should see it as yet another testament to Brett’s excellent reputation.
To those who responded to my tweet saying “I knew Brett in high school” by asking if I had gender reassignment surgery: I went to an all-girls school in Bethesda. He went to an all-boys school in Bethesda. We were permitted upon occasion to speak to people of the opposite sex.
To those hearing the thwap thwap thwap of black helicopters because my father is a journalist or because I worked in politics: In a group of 65 graduates of D.C. area schools, it would be odd not to find someone related to or working as a journalist or politician. It is entirely unremarkable. This is a company town. (That said, it might explain why people happened to see my tweets on the subject).
Finally, to the one person who said I’m too young to know Brett Kavanaugh: Truly, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

The Democrats have gotten use to having complete control over the media.l They can’t stand it when the accused is able to respond. That’s why its so important that they gain control of the new media before their future depends on it. Our future depends on free speech and an internet that is open to all ideas.
Let me guess, the super secret woman’s name rhymes with BAnita PHill.
There is plenty of time before the Kavanaugh senate votes for a couple of shy women to come forward and support the anonymous accuser.
Is that “shy” or “sly”?
Wouldn’t it be better if the anonymous accuser would come forward, and support herself?
They will just as soon as they can determine who the accuser is and coordinate their testimony about what HS she attended, when she told them about the incident and where and when the party was held.
Senate Democrats have sunk to the level of trash. Come to think on it, the entire party is trash or is abiding trash or simply well on the way to becoming trash. We on the Right have nothing in common with these ‘people’.
While I understand your point, and agree with it in general, you’re using a brush that is a bit too wide. There are Dems that are even more upset than we about the direction their party is going, but rather than “Walk Away” they’re staying in an attempt to save the party. We have more in common than you seem to believe.
… more in common with them …
Sorry about that, Chief! My fingers can’t keep up with my thoughts.
I’m sorry, but at this point the only way to save the party is to destroy it. What is left is not worth saving.
There were a lot of Germans who weren’t very happy about the way things were going in the 1930’s, but they stayed “loyal” and were just as responsible for everything that happened as their leadership.
Name 3…
Stupid comment software.
“staying in an attempt to save the party.”
Name 3…
but rather than “Walk Away” they’re staying in an attempt to save the party.
That doesn’t make it any better. Actually, it makes it worse; when you know better, you have no excuse.
Hey. Joe Lieberman decided more then ten years ago that it was too late. And he ran as a Dem for VP.
Um, Lieberman did not walk away from the Dems. He was reelected as an independent, just like Murkowski, but caucused with the Dems just as she does with the Reps.
At this point it’s more akin to a battered woman staying with the husband who abuses her because she thinks she can ‘change him’ people who have gone as far past the edge of decency while flipping it the double bird as modern democrats don’t change.
Trump has done a good job of disrupting both parties, actually what I hoped for when I voted for him. I expected that there would be sore heads on both sides, I did not expect to see Dems regress to 6th-7th grade mentality.
The truth is that scum tends to rise to the top in all organizations. Church, government & corporate.
Their principles unite. Democrats need to lose their religion.
Too many Dems are staying quiet which I now take to mean approval, as long as ‘we get ours’ as payoff for silence. I’m 72 years old and I knew an enemy that rewarded this kind of behavior and not that long ago or far away. Nothing would please me more than to narrow my ‘broad brush’.
I think in the next 24 hours we will see all the details and be able to judge. If not then there is nothing to it.
But it works so much better to have the anonymous woman tell her story to the Stanford Professor who writes a letter to his Congresswoman relating the story he has been told. Then the Congresswoman gives the letter to Fineswine in July. Fineswine
holds it until the hearings are over and then gives it to the FBI and tells the MSM that she has given a double super secret anonymous allegation of wrongdoing by Brett Kavinaugh when he was 16 or 17 to the FBI. This allows the MSM to release their imaginations instead of being stuck with details. The only question now remaining is whether the alleged details which are emerging are being leaked by the professional leakers in the Congress and/or the FBI.
Hi, mom! White Polish-Mexican-American Jewish supremacist.
Grassley should move up the vote date as punishment for bad Democrat behavior.

I am going to keep my left hand in the OK position at the mochahut today just to see how many Leftists I can trigger.
It really isn’t THAT uncomfortable as many proclaim.
