I'm not by any means anywhere near a conservative but nice try.

LOL! Let me guess, another "left-leaning centrist"?

You know as they say... the loser in a debate resorts to slander.

a) Literally no one says that
b) Since when is "conservative" slander?

Anyway, what about the numerous people who said they dont recall any of this ever happening under penalty of perjury including her close friend? I suppose that doesn't support your political leanings so that's gotta be bullshit right?

"I don't remember" is not the same thing as "I remember, but it didn't turn out the way she said it did."

Ford even explained this today - her friend wasn't in the room, she didn't witness anything. To her it would have been entirely unremarkable, so it's not surprising she doesn't have any distinct memories of the night in question.

And you sure used a lot of swear words for someone accusing me of getting angry my dude.

Yeah, me and my big potty mouth, with *two whole swears* in three posts. I know, I should have been a pirate, right?

The most notable fact is this... He's been under intense scrutiny for years but suddenly right now this lady comes out of the woodwork and people are denying her testimony and I'm supposed to believe it because why... you dont like him. Give me a break dude. The timing is so incredibly suspect and I'm supposed to believe the Democrats have no involvement. Lmao

She came out of the woodwork when Kavanaugh's name started showing up in the papers. That's not that uncommon. She'd done her best to put this all behind her, then all of a sudden she sees the man who attacked her vying for one of the most powerful offices in the land? Yeah, if I was in her shoes, I'd come forward too.

The actual timing is absolutely the work of the Democrats and that hasn't been denied by anyone involved. The Dems had a letter from Ford months ago and they sat on it until now in an effort to maximize their own political gain; if Kavanaugh is not confirmed and/or withdraws/is withdrawn, the next nomination won't be voted on until after the midterms, giving the Dems a chance to retake the senate and deny Trump the nomination. It's naked political gamesmanship and I'm absolutely mortified by it... or at least I would be, if the Republicans hadn't pulled the exact same bullshit not two years ago with Merrick Garland, with even less justification. So fuck Mitch McConnell forever for spending most of the last 10 years steadily politicizing what is supposed to be an apolitical process, but we're here now. McConnell's justification two years ago was "The American people deserve the opportunity, through this election, to choose who nominates the next Supreme Court justice", so I find it a little disingenuous to complain about the Democrats giving the American people an opportunity to pick who confirms the next Supreme Court justice through an upcoming election.

Anyways, since you brought it up, I'll go ahead and repost my reasonings for thinking that Ford is much more credible than Kavanaugh at the moment. I know how much you dislike reading my longer posts, so I do apologize for taxing your attention span, but since we're into it now...
