Bill Wagner: Kavanaugh Hearings: The Farce Continues

As predicted, the testimony of Dr. Christine Ford and Judge Brett Kavanaugh solved nothing. Ford was credible, compelling, emotional, and 100% certain that Kavanaugh assaulted her. While I could have done without the tears, Kavanaugh was credible, compelling, emotional, and 100% certain he didn’t assault her or anyone else, ever. Given that you can’t prove a negative, any answer has to rest with the evidence brought forward by the accuser. That’s the way America works. There was zero corroborating evidence from the accuser, and in fact those she cited as “witnesses” all denied, under penalty of felony, that they remember anything that supports her claim.

Since it is entirely possible Ford suffered a traumatic event like the one she described, albeit the attacker may not have been Kavanaugh, wouldn’t the most useful questions have been:

How well she did she know him?

How many times before the alleged attack had she seen him?

How can she be so sure she recognized him?

I am dismissing the theory that Ford is part of the Democrat plot, but that proves nothing about whether Kavanaugh was the attacker. Even though I thought Republicans displayed the height of cowardice by taking the politically expedient way out and punting the questioning to a female attorney, I thought they did that so Ford could be asked appropriate questions. But nothing of the sort happened.
