Apparently the new accuser didn’t think her complaint thru. She was in college when he was in high school.

| Just think if this was your husband, father, brother, son, Grandsons and some woman made such a claim. Would you not what the person making the claim to provide proof before their life was ruined.
How would you feel if it was your mom,daughter,grandmother or wife.
How would you feel if they were gang raped,drugged, sexual abused etc..
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL????? | I would expect they to provide proof before ruining someone life

Separately, Sens. D*** Durbin, D-Ill., and Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., accepted an open letter Wednesday in support of Ford that was signed by 1,400 men and women "who grew up in the same world" as Ford and Kavanaugh in the suburbs of Maryland near Washington, D.C.
"We attended the same elite private schools, country clubs, and churches. And we believe you," said the letter.

WASHINGTON �" Attorneys for Christine Blasey Ford have given the Senate Judiciary Committee sworn declarations from four individuals, including her husband, who say she told them in recent years that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh attacked her when they were in high school.
The signed documents �" from Ford's husband, Russell, and three friends �" were sent to the committee on Tuesday night and obtained by NBC News Wednesday morning, In one declaration, a friend of Ford, Keith Koegler, says that Ford told him of the alleged assault in early summer 2016, while they were talking about the sentencing of ex-Stanford swimmer Brock Turner, who was convicted of sexually assaulting an unconscious woman.
"Christine expressed anger at Mr. Turner's lenient sentence, stating that she was particularly bothered by it because she was assaulted in high school by a man who was now a federal judge in Washington, D.C.," Koegler said.
Koegler said Ford didn't mention the assault again until "June 29, 2018, two days after Justice Anthony Kennedy announced his resignation from the Supreme Court of the United States."
Koegler added that, after he asked in an email for the name of the person who allegedly assaulted her, she replied, "Brett Kavanaugh."
In another declaration, Adela Gildo-Mazzon, a friend of Ford's, said Ford confided in her about the alleged assault in 2013.
"Christine told me she had been having a hard day because she was thinking about an assault she experienced when she was much younger. She said she had been almost raped by someone who was now a federal judge. She told me she had been trapped in a room with two drunk guys, and that she had escaped, ran away and hid," Gildo-Mazzon wrote.
Russell Ford said in his declaration that his wife first told him of the alleged sexual assault around the time they got married, in June 2002, but that she didn't share all of the details until a couple's therapy session in 2012.
"She said that in high school she had been trapped in a room and physically restrained by one boy who was molesting her while another boy watched. She said she was eventually able to escape before she was raped," Russell Ford said in the statement.
"I remember her saying that the attacker's name was Brett Kavanaugh, that he was a successful lawyer who had grown up in Christine's hometown, and that he was well-known in the Washington D.C. community," Russell Ford added.
In the fourth declaration, Rebecca White, a neighbor and friend of Ford's, said Ford told her in 2017 that when "she was a young teen, she had been sexually assaulted by an older teen."
"I remember her saying that her assailant was now a federal judge," White said.
All four made their sworn declarations "under the penalties of perjury," according to the documents. Kavanaugh has vigorously denied all allegations against him.

A little more.
Tomorrow, we have a hearing. Many members of this body, from both parties, have already made up their minds, on the record, in advance of this hearing. They will presumably hear what they want to hear and disregard the rest. One is tempted to ask, why even bother to have a hearing?
I do not know how I will assess the credibility of these witnesses �" these human beings �" on the grave matters that will be testified to, because I have not yet heard a word of their testimony, and because I am not psychic. I am not gifted with clairvoyance. Given these limitations, I will have to listen to the testimony before I make up my mind about the testimony.
What I do know is that I don’t believe that Dr. Ford is part of some kind of vast conspiracy from start to finish to smear Judge Kavanaugh, as has been alleged by some on the right.

Some of Jeff Flakes speech today..
I must also say that separate and apart from this nomination and the facts that pertain to it, I do not believe that a claim of sexual assault is invalid because a 15-year-old girl didn’t promptly report the assault to the authorities, as the President of the United States said just two days ago. How uninformed and uncaring do you have to be to say things like that, much less believe them? Do we have any idea what kind of message that sends, especially to young women? How many times do we have to marginalize and ignore women before we learn that important lesson?

You stated we had a problem questioning a woman. I simply gave you an example. It does not matter what the situation is.

Afraid to question a woman? WE had no problem questioning Hillary! Oh, that's right! I am glad a liberal finally admitted that she is not even a woman, walking around in burlap potato sacks!

This new woman claims that she was gang raped or "train' raped over the course of years. WTH?? Why pray tell, would anyone keep going back to these "parties" and getting "train" raped if it was actually happening?? If I slapped you in the face every time you came to my house, would you keep coming by? WTH?? I call BS on this and that and all of it!!

I need evidence that it happen before I agree with ruining a mans life and career with nothing more than accusations.
Just think if this was your husband, father, brother, son, Grandsons and some woman made such a claim. Would you not what the person making the claim to provide proof before their life was ruined.
