WYD trumpers Predictably Attack Brett Kavanaugh Accuser, Christine Blasey Ford

"Let her say what she has to say. And let's see how it all comes out. But they've delayed it a week, and they have to get on with it" is what the predisent said in response to prompting from Sean Hannity. "You've been very accommodating" the ass-kissing toady said, agreeing with the Orange-skinned misogynist.

What Hannity and tRump were talking about was the accusations of attempted rape against SCOTUS nominee Brett Kavanaugh. That this nominee be rushed though the process is what the Right is stressing. Also the fact that Dr. Ford can't remember specific details. That is the tact Lisa of the trumper blog Who's Your Daddy employs. By posting comments she attributes to "Ken Sisco", whoever that is (I did a Google search on "selective memory has it's advantages" and "Ken Sisco" and got nothing).

SELECTIVE MEMORY HAS ITS ADVANTAGES. If Dr. Ford could remember a specific date or year, Judge Kavanaugh might be able to show that he was nowhere near the incident described. When the fraudulent accusations were made in the Duke Lacrosse debacle, one of the three men accused, proved by a video that when the incident occurred, he was at an ATM machine a mile away. Same is true of location. (posted by Lisa to WYD on 9/20/2018 at 6:40am under the title "Same Story, Different Names").

First, to address the "selective memory" bit. The author is clearly implying he believes Dr. Ford is lying. However, that details of traumatic events like sexual assault can't remembered extraneous details is actually very common.

Jodi J. De Luca PhD, explains [that] "When a person is faced with a dangerous or threatening situation, their attention becomes narrowly focused on the danger at hand". ... So when survivors can't remember every aspect of the trauma later, that isn't the result of negligence or absent-mindedness—instead, certain aspects of the trauma simply weren't encoded into the survivor's memory because they were experiencing real and present danger. "This can help explain why a survivor may recall vividly certain details of the trauma while being unable to recall other details of the event"... (Trauma Survivors Often Forget Important Details of Their Assaults. Here's Why. 1/17/2018 Greatist article by Alexis Dent).

As for what happened in the Duke Lacrosse case, Dr. Ford's accusations are not comparable. Crystal Gail Mangum, the accuser in that case, lied. Her story fell apart and those she accused were cleared of any wrongdoing. Christine Blasey Ford is telling the truth. The different name that could be subbed into this story is Anita Hill. Professor Anita Hill's story has never been disproven.

Another corollary between Ford and Hill is the coordinated Right-wing character assassination. Anita Hill was painted as "a little bit slutty, a little bit nutty". In regards to Ford, The Republican senator from Utah, Orrin Hatch, says she is "mixed up". Also "if that were true [the accusations], I think it would be hard for Senators not to consider who he is today". Nice. She's making it up. Although, if she isn't, it doesn't matter.

Clearly the plan is to steamroll Dr. Ford if she shows up. They want to keep this a "he said, she said" so it's Kavanaugh's word versus Dr. Ford's word. She's lying or mixed up. It doesn't matter anyway because it was so long ago. Also, they don't want the FBI to investigate because it would be pointless.

Liberal Hunter: Okay, so let's have an FBI investigation to satisfy The Accuser... Where did this take place? I don't know. What day was this? I don't know. What month did this take place? I don't know. What year did this take place? I don't know. Okay genius, now tell me WTF are the FBI supposed to investigate? (9/20/2018 at 11:29am). Excerpted from a WYD comment.

Obviously this moron "Liberal Hunter" thinks the FBI would start the investigation, find that Dr. Ford couldn't remember certain details, then determine there was nothing for them to go on and therefore they couldn't proceed. Except they could find other people who had been there (by looking at student enrollment records) and question them. And likely find (via exhaustive legwork) at least a few other people who had been at the party and could remember those details.

Just because "Liberal Hunter" is too stupid to figure out how the FBI would proceed doesn't mean the FBI wouldn't be able to find other people to corroborate Dr. Ford's story. Or to not corroborate if (in the highly unlikely event) Kavanaugh is innocent and Dr. Ford is "mixed up" or lying.

They don't want the FBI to investigate for a reason. By "they" I mean the Orange Turd and all the Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee. As well as the subservient ass-kissing state media (Fox, etc) and (taking their cues from these sources) the brainwashed zombie Orange Turd cultists. People like the trumpers who comment on WYD.

The reason they don't want an investigation is because "only 2-8% of rapes are falsely reported, the same percentage as for other felonies". Their intention is to push through Brett Kavanaugh and get him on the Supreme Court, facts be damned! Brett needs to get to work ASAP protecting the wealthy and corporations. As well as taking away rights from minorities and women. Because imposing the will of a minority is more important than one woman getting sexually assaulted (that minority being pseudo Christian evilvangelicals and Ayn Rand types who believe the US should be ruled by an aristocracy).

"Ruth Bader Ginsburg came out that she was groped by Abraham Lincoln" Rep Ralph Norman (SC 5th district) joked recently. It's funny because RBG is an ugly old hag who should hurry up and die. That women are a threat to legitimate male power (as per FrancoThinke) is a "fact" that even Right-wing women (such as Lisa) agree with. The problem is feminazis and absolutely not toxic masculinity.

If Hillary Clinton had won the election and been inaugurated (she won but was not inaugurated) and President HRC nominated a man for the Supreme Court who was accused of sexual assault? You KNOW Republican hypocrites would absolutely believe the accuser and DEMAND an FBI investigation and hearings that were more than political theater.

Scratch that. The actual suggested course of action of Republicans prior to the election was that, if Hillary Clinton should win, they would deline to hold hearings to replace Antonin Scalia for HRC's ENTIRE 4 year term!
