Originally posted by JimL View PostSerious answer, they would investigate the veracity of the allegation. Witnesses, like Kavanaugh's high school buddy, M. Judge tend to be more honest when talking to the FBI under oath than they do when speaking off the cuff. And too, we have no idea how many corraborative witnesses there are out there to Kavanaughs behavior during high school, or in regard to this particular alleged incident, and won't know until and unless the allegation is investigated. Investigations take place because the answers aren't known, and as much as MM thinks he knows, thats just a result of his personal inability to be objective.
Sixty-five women who knew Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh in high school signed a letter to Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA), praising the judge in an apparent attempt to discredit an unnamed woman’s allegation that he attempted to sexually assault her in high school.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostThe honorable Judge Kavanaugh is eager to testify under oath and put this matter to rest, which is more than can be said about his accuser who has thrown up one stall tactic after another and who still has not made a firm commitment to appear to testify on Thursday.

Originally posted by JimL View PostThat's not an investigation CP,
that's a biased cherry picked bunch of people,
known to no one,
who signed a conservative petition praising Kavanaugh.
Who are these 65 women who knew Kavanaugh so wel
even though he attended an all boys school? Color me skeptical.
We are women who have known Brett Kavanaugh for more than 35 years and knew him
while he attended high school between 1979 and 1983. For the entire time we have known Brett
Kavanaugh, he has behaved honorably and treated women with respect. We strongly believe it is
important to convey this information to the Committee at this time.
Brett attended Georgetown Prep, an all-boys high school in Rockville, Maryland. He was
an outstanding student and athlete with a wide circle of friends. Almost all of us attended all-
girls high schools in the area. We knew Brett well through social events, sports, church, and
various other activities. Many of us have remained close friends with him and his family over
the years. Through the more than 35 years we have known him, Brett has stood out for his
friendship, character, and integrity. In particular, he has always treated women with decency and
respect. That was true when he was in high school, and it has remained true to this day.
The signers of this letter hold a broad range of political views. Many of us are not
lawyers, but we know Brett Kavanaugh as a person. And he has always been a good person.
Have the FBI, or Congess question them all, then we will know better.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostKavanaugh says he has detailed calendars from high school which shows no evidence that he attended a party like the one Ford described.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostI never said it was, Jim, I just asked if you had actually read the letter. Those are people who could be called as witnesses, as they have put their names out there in public.
Those are people who came forward voluntarily to vouch for his character, Jim.
What does that even mean? They signed their names on a document to the Senate committee, two representatives of both parties.
Actually, no, Jim -- you appear not to have read the letter. It wasn't a "petition" - it was a letter that they signed - 65 women - from various backgrounds and political persuasions.
They signed their names, Jim - they're not mystery women. And they would have to know that they have opened themselves up to scrutiny.
They actually answer that in the letter they wrote:

So, you think these 65 women are lying, but the one is telling the truth? They made their statement in writing, and signed their names, Jim.

Originally posted by JimL View PostNo, they did not make their statement, they signed an obviously contrived letter. Who wrote the letter, CP?
When word of a high-school-era sexual misconduct allegation against Kavanaugh emerged last Thursday afternoon, Meghan McCaleb and her husband, Scott, thought they and other high school friends of the nominee needed to speak out. Meghan McCaleb said she launched the letter-writing effort after discussing it with some of Kavanaugh’s former law clerks.
She said she contacted friends, who contacted more friends, and they had 65 signatures by the next morning.
