I'm starting to think that she is upset that he said no to her advances.

WTF is up with Fox News? They have a poll on their front page claiming more Americans believe her than believe him.
Fox is just slightly less unhinged on this than the rest.

Notice Hannity, Tucker, and Laura cannot really say much against her. They can say things like "presumption of innocence" and these claimed witnesses have said it didn't happen, but that's it. Fox management will not let anyone be seen as "attacking a 'rape victim'".

Hell, last night on of their legal talking heads was pushing for Ford to file charges in Maryland.

Unless you put out some effort, you will not hear any of the important details. You will only hear what the media tells you, and that if you don't believe a "rape victim" no matter what, you're a rape enabler or worse.
Her attempt to file charges would make news as the Maryland AG would be forced to go on record that there isn't enough credible evidence to proceed with an investigation.
One would think so, but Maryland is just slightly less liberal than California, so the AG would likely drag it out for months or longer, just to cause trouble. And just like old Ronnie Earl used to do in Travis County, he could have Kavanaugh indicted, even though he would know it would never go to trial.
So that raises the question, why hasn't she done that yet? Surely her lawyers have talked to Maryland authorities just to check it out if there was such a possibility.

Correct me if I am wrong...but if they did do this...it would be the first instance of a step down a path wherein there are actual penalties for false statements, wouldn't it?

Yes. But she's already on that path with her letter to Feinstein and when she testifies, under federal law.

Except that it wasn't to Feinstein. It was to Aschoo. Is there, in fact, a legal difference, penalty-wise?

That, and until she actually walks into the meeting room and raises her right hand...

So Eschoo forwarded it on to Feinstein without Ford's knowledge nor agreement? Hard to believe that.

This is an absolute travesty for Kavanaugh to have to go through this. Shameful. We're headed for dark times.

(I've been spelling it wrong. It is Eshoo.)

It would have been with her knowledge and (tacit) agreement....but purposely routed through Eshoo (no jurisdiction) to...and this is where the legal eagles come in...avoid a situation of making false statements to an actual member of the Judiciary Committee (Feinstein).

This is not my highest confidence scenario. I am thinking that Feinstein thought it was nothing but got dragged in by its existence being leaked.

Don't be redonkulous. That sort of thing would never be allowed.

If she intended her statement to be provided to the SJC, then it being actually delivered by Eshoo is irrelevant.

Is there any part of the letter that has been made public?

Serious question: Would it be legal or ethical to use the power of the NSA to investigate Ford and her attorneys, and whether her claims were legitimate? Could you argue that it was a matter of national security?

It didn't stop Obama and his administration. Just need a foreign connection, like Ernie Els or Seve Ballesteros.

That would be the job of the media. Unfortunately we no longer have a honest or curious media. Now we get "news" stories like "all women must be believed" instead of a look at the facts or lack there of around all aspects of the accusation. Propaganda has replaced investigative reporting.

Flake has said he may challange Trump in 2020. If Kavanaugh comes out of this hearing "clean " then Flake will have to vote yes, otherwise he would never make it through the primaries.

Brett Kavanaugh has calendars from 1982 that his team says don't show a party matching his accuser's account. He plans to give them to the Senate.
So this guy, when he was 17, had that detailed of an accounting of every thing he did during the summer? What a dork!

If this #MeToo crap continues, every boy in America better start keeping calendars.

No. The Republicans finally opened the rule book and read rule 1.

"1. If you need facts and don't have them, make **** up."

I'm close to His age and I can prove that I was out of town for almost the entire summer between my junior and senior year.

That's not how it works...they keep the calendar copies under wrap and fully redacted and delay sharing a copy over and over without any backlash. Oops, sorry, that's what the libs would do...I'm sure he'll turn it over and as you speculated her memory will start to clear up and it will suddenly be late or early summer, or maybe even '83.

Actually that's her next step...she remembers it was '83 and Kavanaugh was 18, not 17....INDICT!!!!!

I can probably re-create most of my summers in HS (80-84). Not from a written calendar that I can produce (although maybe), but from (parents) travel records, payments for camp, knowing when I was working, etc.

They need to leak a fake calendar, inverting the dates he was available for Ford's sex parties. The Dems will pick one of those dates when they think he was in town, yet he can prove he was not.
