Sounds to me like the system surprised everyone and started working today. So yay for small favors.

Sorry, I hadn’t read that most recent development. Good on Flake for at least doing something.

i can’t help but wonder if all the senators are really senators or just some sort of actor.

Pretty sure they are all really senators. It is kinda difficult to fake being a senator. They each have to run for state wide election. Their faces are well known in their states.

Any female can say they are a sexual assault survivor.

I support citizens confronting their bought-and-paid-for, fraudulent representatives.

I doubt that the lady who confronted him is from Arizona.

His votes still have the power to disrupt all of our lives.

Yeah, but he represents the overwhelmingly conservative state of Arizona. He’s more beholden to them than some lady who corners him in a elevator.

When you physically block the elevator, you’ve crossed the line.

I don’t know what your point is. We know nothing about this woman that confronted the Senator. We have no idea if she is a victim or sexual assault or not. She could be some nut. Or someone in the Dems put her up to it. Who knows.

I still don’t know what your point is. I don’t automatically believe total strangers be they men or women(nor do I automatically assume they are liars)

Since when is this individual representative of half the world’s population? I believe her, but not unconditionally.

Victims of sexual assault are everywhere, they’re just more likely to talk to you about the weather than their assault, so you’d never know under most circumstances. Even if they’re your mother, sister, or daughter. 56% of Native American women have reported experiencing sexual violence. Lower rates for other demographic groups, but it’s not an uncommon crime anywhere.

I don’t necessarily dispute any of that. It doesn’t mean the woman the that confronted the Senator was telling the truth(it doesn’t mean she was lying either). I bet people whom are not victims of sexual assault are also everywhere.

Method or classical?

Triggered.

Everyone is questioning whether Ford is mis-remembering.

Just so it is clear, I wasn’t talking about Ford in these last few posts, I was referring to the woman(women?) that confronted the Senator in the Elevator earlier today.

But I don’t understand why nobody has brought up the possibility that Kavanaugh is mis-remembering? That seems far more likely to me, since multiple people have said that he had a history of getting drunk and it affecting his personality. It also isn’t uncommon for people who were drunk to not remember what they did while they were drunk.

Even if he did lose some of his memory while drunk, it doesn’t prove he assaulted her.

If it can be shown that in fact he was often drunk, then the “he-said-she-said” balance would seem to tip in HER favor.

It has to be more than just drunk, it has to be that he was often so drunk that it effected his memory to the point that he could sexually assault someone without remembering it. Again, just because he has some periods where he lost his memory due to extreme drunkenness, doesn’t prove he sexually assaulted her.

What I don’t understand is how everyone is going on about how the memory works of someone who is sexually assaulted, how someone could remember the who, but the where or when. Yet no one seems to be asking just how does the memory of someone extremely drunk work? How possible is it to get extremely drunk and sexually assault someone and not remember it, to have to recollection of it at all. I would think that I might forget some details, but I think I remember that I did something extremely bad, I’d think I’d at least remember considering doing it. I don’t think I’d totally forget it though. Might be nice if they did someone research on that.

Wouldn’t a history of alcoholism be a disqualifying factor in of itself?

Not if it is passed history. People have been known to have a problem with alcohol and overcome it later on. Remember you are talking about a history of extremely drinking when he was a teenager. I have heard no one say that he still has a drinking problem. Does extreme drinking necessarily = alcoholism?

Thanks for your thoughtful response and attempt to engage in meaningful dialogue. Exactly what this thread has been missing.
