Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostReopen what investigation? The FBI said no federal crimes were committed, so there's nothing for them to investigate. You do know what the "F" in "FBI" stands for, don't you? Also, the Department of Justice said that it's not the FBI's job to determine if a bald accusation has merit. There has to be compelling evidence that a crime was actually committed.
I think the Dems are hoping that the FBI would look into this, and find enough details for them to try to support their claims, since they don't know when, where, how she got there, how she got home...The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

The FBI does not make any judgment about the credibility or significance of any allegation. The purpose of a background investigation is to determine whether the nominee could pose a risk to the national security of the United States. On the night of September 12, the FBI received a letter dated from July 2018 alleging that the nominee engaged in an incident of misconduct in the 1980s. Consistent with the memorandum of understanding, the FBI forwarded this letter to the White House Counsel’s Office. The allegation does not involve any potential federal crime. The FBI’s role in such matters is to provide information for the use of the decision makers.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

What happens when you read, MM? Does your mind automatically shut off when your eyes scan that which is contrary to your beliefs?

Anyway, shouldn't this discussion be happening in this thread?

Originally posted by Sparko View PostThe only thing the FBI could investigate is if Ford is lying and in collusion with the democrats to falsely accuse Kavanaugh to tank his nomination. I bet there is a federal crime there.

Originally posted by JimL View PostOh, so trying to find out if Kavanaugh is lying has nothing to do with it, eh? Didn't you say you worked for a law office in some capacity? Dr Ford is highly respected individual and documentation of this attack came out 6 years ago in therapy, she didn't just make it up in order to keep Kavanaugh off the bench. That you don't believe her is just a matter of your political bias which is stronger than your powers of reason.
This delaying is so transparently a ploy that nobody is buying it. Not even you. You are just playing along because you also want Kavanaugh defeated so any tactic is fine with you as long as it accomplishes that.
I predicted several days ago that she would delay testifying as long as she could. If forced to, she will refuse claiming that it is too traumatic for her. Then at least the Democrats can claim that there is still doubt and try to push that. Because if she does testify, all she can say is she doesn't remember any details. And then it will go away.

Originally posted by Sparko View PostWhat came out in therapy was that she never mentioned Kavanaugh. That she doesn't even remember when or where it was. And SHE IS a Psychiatrist, so she knows how to game the system. I think she decided that it would be an easy accusation to make, to take some anonymous memory she had from high school and put Kavanaugh in the middle of it. Her agenda is to keep him from being confirmed. Or at least delay it long enough so that maybe democrats can win some extra seats in the election and then the accusation will magically disappear or no longer be relevant once they can just vote him down.

The Most Dangerous Idea in Mental Health
The belief that hidden memories can be "recovered" in therapy should have been exorcised years ago, when a rash of false memories dominated the airwaves, tore families apart, and put people on the stand for crimes they didn't commit. But the mental health establishment does not always learn from its mistakes—and families are still paying the price.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by JimL View PostI see you already have it all figured out, Sparko, that no investigation into her allegations are necessary. Are you really going to tell us, that you are so naive or politically biased that you believe that this professional woman just made this whole story up, that she is going to put herself and her family through all this, that she is blatently, willingly, going to lie under oath, just for political reasons? The naivete of the current makeup of the republican constituency is truly amazing to see.Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom
