Perhaps. But Ed Henry on Shannon Bream was reporting the same.

I mentioned this possibility a few pages ago. I was told it would be the worst thing that could happen. Really?

A Case of Mistaken Identity?
A few days ago–it seems like a year–there was considerable buzz around the idea that Christine Ford might have described something close to an actual event, but identified the wrong perpetrator. That speculation has since faded. However, within the last two hours the Judiciary Committee put out a statement that summarizes events in the Kavanaugh smear from July 30 to the present. The chronology provides overwhelming evidence of bad faith on the part of the Democratic Senators on the committee, and the lawyers representing the “accusers.”

In the morning I will post the entire chronology, but for now, here are the most intriguing items:

September 24: Committee staff have first interview with a man who believes he, not Judge Kavanaugh, had the encounter with Dr. Ford in 1982 that is the basis of his complaint. He submitted a written statement earlier in the day.

September 25: Committee staff have a second interview with a man who believes he, not Judge Kavanaugh, had the encounter with Dr. Ford in the summer of 1982 that is the basis of her allegation. He described his recollection of their interaction in some detail.

September 26: Committee staff receives a more in-depth written statement from the man interviewed twice previously who believes he, not Judge Kavanuagh, had the encounter in question with Dr. Ford.
***
Committee investigative staff spoke via phone with another man who believes he, not Judge Kavanuagh, had the encounter with Dr. Ford in 1982 that is the basis of her allegation. He explained his recollection of the details of the encounter.

It will be interesting to see whether one or both of these gentlemen appear at tomorrow’s hearing.

At minimum these new revelations add some credence to a case of mistaken identity.

You wanted someone who was a friend of Kavanaugh to say he was pretending to be Kavanaugh during the incident. Yeah, i don't think that would be very helpful.

Someone admitting that he was the actual attacker though by itself would certainly help Kavanaugh’s case.

Unless he can be proven to be credible he will be seen by many, rightly or wrongly, to be giving cover to Kavanaugh--perhaps arranged by supporters.

ETA: Wonderful--now there are two guys claiming they might have been the one? <smh> Yeah, Twilight Zone is about right.

So now two men are claiming to be the attacker? Imagine if the delay the dems foisted on everyone gave the Committee time to get the information for Kavanaugh to clear his name.

You mean, they won't just take his word for it with no other evidence whatsoever?

Well, what's good for the goose...

Meanwhile, everyone keep praying.

If the Reps can advance Kavanaugh by themselves, at-risk Dems will be allowed to vote for him too.

If the Reps cannot, no Dem will be allowed to vote for him.

Could be that there are a lot of guys who could come forward. There were a lot of nights in 1982.

Tonight I will pray for judge ]Kavanaugh and for our country.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

So now two more men claim to have groped Ford? What if both of them did? What if she can't remember? Is she repressing these memories? If she remembers will this be two times the assault trauma or three? Is she a serial gropee? It's getting confusing. Lots of groping and gang raping going on in that neck of the woods, apparently.

I guess you didn't actually read my post on the subject. Here it is again from page 75.


I think it would serve the Democrats right if one of Kavanaugh's male classmates came forward and said that he was the one doing the misdemeanor sexual misconduct and that he used the name Brett Kavanaugh so no one could trace his activities back to him. Of course he would be so sorry as to how he behaved as a misguided youth.

Nothing in that post said anything about a "friend" of Kavanaugh.

This is getting crazy(er)... Four accusers now, and two conflicting supposed alibis for the same case of potential mistaken identity... w.t.f. It reads more like a telenovella script than reality. And much like the last Presidential Election itself, this confirmation process for Kavanaugh has the Left scared and desperate, and willing to do almost anything to not lose.

As distasteful as much of their tactics are, the "Kavanaugh question" is working out to be a very real test of what power and influence, if any, the Left really has at this time. And a very real test of how strongly, or not, the Right can maintain its control and exercise its will, and a very real test of the commie-loving Media's ability to swing its dick around. Their "game" is weak and their chances look like shit. The Republicans better not fuck this up.

It sure looks like this is a "hill the Left is willing to die on"... given the very bitter taste they have in their mouths over Garland, and the threat to Roe that Kavanaugh represents. I don't agree with them, of course, but the notion that the Right "stole" a seat from Garland is rampant amongst Leftists, and ever present, a Top 5 issue for sure, and getting any additional Conservative on the court has them scared and livid, and when that one is the threat to Roe that Kavanaugh surely is - they're fucking beside themselves, I assure you.
I'm certain Roe and Garland are the root causes of this attack in their minds - whether they're openly talking like that or not. I've been seeing and watching it for months now.

What's next from the Left, a mystery love child that suddenly shows up? How far will they go? I will be very surprised if they back off of this given what we've seen so far. I'm a little surprised they haven't found a committed stooge who is willing to perjure themselves. That they're all being so sketchy about testifying under oath demonstrates their fear. My reservations about Kavanaugh aside, I definitely don't think he's some white Bill Cosby or something, it's just too much too believe. He might be a late bloomer and former dork, on top of his faith and whatnot, but a rapist/sexual assaulter/etc... ? I don't even like him and I'm not buying it at all. Their story smells like bullshit. 11th-hour desperate bullshit.

Cough up real and solid evidence or shut up so we can get on with it. This has gotten crazy.

Of course I read your post. How else would I have known about it? And what's the difference? You said classmate. Anyway, that part's not even relevant to the point.

At this point, I think it’s pretty clear that this Ford whore just liked to fuck in her younger years. I think she went to these parties to do just that. The stories about drug fueled gang rapes are either completely fabricated, or her way to justify in her head consensual sex with multiple partners. I think her lack of morals puts her squarely in a position to translate that into leverage for her disgusting political cohorts.

And as I have already said (along with others) this is going to blow up in the lefts faces when he is confirmed and the midterms show that middle America is tired of this nefarious activity.

And the women’s vote? My wife happens to be a woman. She votes. She has been very outspoken about Fords, and the lefts dishonest behavior. I know she is not alone. A large number of rational women in this country will see this for what it is as well.

That was the 3rd accuser who mentioned gang rapes, not Ford.
