Grazing a tit or asking for a kiss didn’t quite have the umph Dems needed in 16. Prepare for accusations of all-out rape, attempted murder, and sodomy.

Yep. The twitter crazies are already pushing some bs about Trump raping a 12 year old.

In my mind that woman there ruined any credibility of her claims by virtue of obvious and blatant financial gain.
What financial gain was she out to get when she first brought it up? She wasn't thinking about testifying. She wasn't even thinking of Kavanaugh being confirmed. She was trying to get it out so that Kavanaugh wouldn't be nominated. She called the Wash Post anonymously. Weeks later she called her congresswoman and then through her sent a letter to Senator Feinstein, again requesting confidentiality. She only became involved personally when her name was leaked, against her request.
So how does this show that her motive was financial gain?

Nope, hold up....I was talking about the new lady and her book. I may have confused the person in the photo.

Ridder, upon what are you basing your being convinced that Kavanaugh committed this offense? As in what have you seen, read, heard personally in that regard??
There are too many unanswered questions to be convinced of anything.
I am convinced that there are facts that could have been explored at the hearing that would have answered a good many of the unanswered questions, but were not explored.
My starting point is that I am convinced that Kavanaugh lied under oath at both his confirmation hearing for District Judge, and also at his confirmation hearing for the Court of Appeal when he testified about information that was surreptitiously retrieved by the Republicans about the proposed questions the Democrats were intending to ask Republican judges during their confirmation hearings.
Kavanaugh testified that he had no knowledge or suspicion that the information that was given him was surreptitiously obtained, when it is obvious he did.
Given that as a background, as far as the Ford issue was concerned, I have some skepticism about Kavanaugh,s assertions, especially those that seemed subject to question -- for example, his July 1 calendar entry about a party where many of his friends,including Mark Judge, attended.

As far as that stuff is concerned, the facts are that she couldn't have known up front what GoFundMe would bring in, but also it's fact that she received, as the range goes, somewhere between 650k and 800k. Plus a loaner home free of charge. And I feel comfortable assuming other incidental items of no charge. That's just a feeling though. As far as what she used the money for, that to me seems to be a fairly thin explanation....per Ford - a home security system, a security service and housing while her family was “displaced” although it's up in the air as to housing when she also says she was gratuitously allowed use of a home. They may have hopped around a little.
But there werent any specific threats disclosed, so my own admitted biases lead me to believe the threat stuff while not altogether false was likely exaggerated.
Also, and this is mere speculation, but it's not all that farfetched a possibility that the plan for GoFundMe was indeed introduced early on with the belief that it could bring in substantial money. Perhaps that was an incentive to jump from wanting to stay confifential to let's go to D.C. and let er rip.

Brett Kavanaugh was never a nominee for a federal district court only the DC Circuit Court of Appeals and SCOTUS
As far as Memogate, just stop with the perjury claims it’s all a load of horseshite, even leftist Vox concluded there was no crime ACTUAL LAW PROFESSORS

10-4. Ive just gotten the impression that you are convinced of his culpability. Yep, there's bits and pieces of circumstantial evidence that can at least be considered, but at the end of the day it's a tie, if nothing else, and Id assume you might agree with that. And in the game of criminal allegations (even if not actually in court) tie goes to the runner, the accused. Because Id say even though there was no criminal penalty at stake, Kavanaugh still had considerable loss and damage on the line. So using the criminal court standard is reasonable. In doing so, and considering the evidence, Id propose that a jury would return a not guilty verdict in less than an hour.

But that still doesn't change the fact that she GoFundMe didn't affect her decision to get involved at the beginning.
Look, there is little doubt that the Dems did some stuff that they would not like to have come out in their dealings with Ford, but that's a separate question.

I agree that there's too much speculation necessary to arrive at a supported opinion as to possible motive of Ford. Potential motive wasnt really necessary in the end as Kav, again IMO, gets the nod on the merits alone.

Do you ever get tired of being wrong about everything??
When she “anonymously” sent a tip to WaPo on July 6, Kavanaugh was already widely reported as being the nominee, but Trump didn’t make the “official” announcement until July 9th. Ford sent a letter to Feinstein on July 30th and she sent one to her local rep sometime between July 6th and 30th. So, she was not trying to “prevent” his nomination by getting her story out- he had already been nominated.
So, you can throw that pathetic excuse out. Which leads us to the obvious question of why Feinstein held the letter until Sept 14- for a whole month and a half- before giving it to the FBI to investigate. Just 2 days later, WaPo revealed Fords identity. And low and behold, we find out that Ford had already hired a Dem activist lawyer several weeks earlier (on recommendation by Feinstein) AND this new legal team had already summoned a dem friendly FBI agent to polygraph Ford, and Ford had passed the polygraph that consisted of only 2 questions, neither of which Had any details from her story in them.
So if Ford never planned to go public, why had she already hired Dem activist lawyers and taken a polygraph WEEKS before her identity was revealed??
I’ll give you a hint- it’s because it was all pre-planned. By Democrats. Because they were desperate to stop Trump.
ETA: I’m sure it’s also just another coincidence that of all media outlets, she chose WaPo to send her “tip” to. Then she subsequently hires Michael Bromwich as her attorney, the same Michael Bromwich who just so happens to be representing one Andrew McCabe—against accusations of leaking FBI classified info to.....WaPo. Is it any wonder she didn’t have a problem finding an FBI agent to “give her a polygraph”?!?!
What a tangled web the Dems can weave. It’s all one big massive circle jerk con job.
