    What are you so afraid of just by looking into it? Why so quick to attack the victim?
    Can't the same be said of the victim? She wanted to testify and now she doesn't? Now I understand there is more pressure for her but her attorney requested the hearing. And the Senate Republicans even offered to meet her in private in California.

    I think they could give her the 3 days the FBI investigated for Hill. What's the rush? This guy could be on the bench for 40 yrs.! We could end up with another moron like Thomas. Has he even said anything yet?

She knew die-hards would react that way and wanted to remain anonymous. Please just open your mind to other possibilities that aren’t partisan.
    It would certainly help if she could remember any of the details

    It was reported on CNN that it was administered by her lawyer in the lawyers' offices.

    She’s been very clear about the details...

    She went to the bathroom; got pushed into a bedroom by him; he got on top of her, aggressively groping her; when she screamed, he forcefully covered her mouth, causing her to fear for her life; the other dude jumped on top of them, allowing her to get free.

    The logistical details are obviously not as memorable after all these years. But she most definitely remembers what happened. When you think back to memorable times in your life, do you remember all of the surrounding details? I’ve had a couple of traumatic experiences around that age, and I can recall exactly what happened and generally where it was, but not specifically.

    Also, there have been some classmates who say there was a buzz about this in the following days.

    And the other dude has said it didn’t happen.

    First of all, my opinion of this doesn’t have anything to do with politics. Secondly, no thankfully I was never a victim, however if she didn’t tell anyone besides supposedly her therapist which who knows if that is true, then why wait until now when the attention is at its highest point. That’s why I think it’s bullshit.

    I feel horrible for the victims of assault, but having a son and a daughter of my own, I am just as fearful for my daughter being a victim as my son being a victim or being wrongfully accused by someone and him not being able to prove it did not happen. All anyone has to do anymore is say it happened and that person is guilty I’m the court of public opinion.

    Then why does she want an investigation? If you think she's lying you should be praying for an investigation to clear Kavanaugh's name.

    It has been 36 years..... pray tell how an investigation is going to prove one way or the other?

    Personally, I think her agenda is pretty clear here.
