There are accusations and denials back and forth between Ford and Kavanaugh but what we can pretty much gather is that in high school and college Kavanaugh was a party guy and a heavy drinker. From some accounts we've heard it should not be a shocker if he says that he does not remember every stupid thing he did (or every 15 yr old girl he terrorized).
I guess he cleaned up his act by graduation and became a model citizen.
Except for one thing: He's lying today about what he did, and if he truly cannot remember his actions back then, he at least should be telling the Senate, "I was pretty much a drunk back then and I don't remember much of what I did, least of all, which 15 year old girls I terrorized". Just think about this: He and Judge ran down the stairs laughing. Did Christine Blasey run down the stairs laughing?
And as for lying, his contention that while working for Bush all the confidential communications he was privy to were just "water cooler talk" is clearly an act of dissemblance. (He is so smart, but he could not "get" that emails from one Dem staffer to another could not have come to him through legal means? Come on. He's lying.)
Aside from the fact that this attack terrorized Christine (and it should not surprise anyone that a 15yr old teenager being physically attached, groped, and smothered by two 17yr old boys was terrified at the time and remains traumatized by it) are we forgetting that Kavanaugh lied about it? The attack was 35 years ago but the lie was yesterday.
Don't confirm a liar let alone a sexual predator.
