Setting up a credible background so that one day, if he ever did get nominated or too close to confirmation, she would have this allegation available to toss out at the last minute in the hopes it would stop his confirmation ... ??

My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

Originally posted by Terraceth View PostSorry, I should have specified the only one I recall in recent years getting media coverage.
My point was the rarity for anyone to get media coverage to the point that anyone not actively following the appointment process in general would have heard any names.
ETA: That she allegedly knew of Kavanaugh as a federal judge in 2012 puts paid to the theory that she wasn't aware back then; judges tend to be much more low-profile once they're confirmed.Last edited by One Bad Pig; 09-22-2018, 05:20 PM.Veritas vos Liberabit<>< Learn Greek <>< Look here for an Orthodox Church in America<><Ancient Faith Radio

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostAt what point is it going to sink in that this is not in the FBI's purview? Feinstein asked them to investigate and they told her no. As a foreigner I can't expect you to know that this does not fall under their jurisdiction but it is unconscionable that so many liberal politicians continue to demand what they full well know (and if at one point they didn't they like you have been repeatedly informed since then) is not something they would investigate. This is what the local authorities are for. The politicians are deliberately playing on the public at large's ignorance about this. That is incredibly dishonest.
All the FBI could do, even when making a standard background check, is ask the locals to investigate (unless federal laws were broken). But nobody knows, including Ford, what local authorities to ask. She thinks it might have been in Montgomery County and it might have been some time during the summer of 1982 (she's not even sure about that). With so little to go on all anyone can do at this point is file a report. That is it.

So that's four people identified by Ford who have all denied any knowledge of the incident in question.
Why is the Senate even treating this like a plausible accusation at this point? The Republican party is pathetic.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

Originally posted by Tassman View PostIt is standard procedure for the FBI to do background checks on potential candidates for the judiciary. Kavanaugh has already had six prior to his various appointments over the years. All that's required it a further background check in the light of the additional information being provided by professor Ford. Given the seriousness of the allegations and the importance of and the life-time tenure of the SCOTUS justices is is a reasonable ask. Kavanaugh himself should welcome it in order to clear his name.

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostAgain since no federal laws were alleged to be violated they would simply recommend turning any further investigation over to the local authorities. This is why they have already declined to get involved in this. So you can stop beating this dead horse now.

- the number of the alleged assailants
- how you got home
And you never, ever tell a single soul. Not the authorities, not a school counselor, not a classmate, not your bff, not a sibling or other relative.
This has all the ear marks of a false memory.
