"Belief and partisanship ('oh my how can you believe her and still . . . ")"

Edited by Author at 9/28/2018 - 9:20 a.m.

The incredulous and hyperventilating media and left are all a twitter about how you can "find her credible" but not take their advice and dump kav in a federal pen yesterday or at least vote him down.  I have noted the hypocrisy in this message that "you guys" . . . broader than just Topcat . . . seem unable to see but beyond that  . . .   Let's dig into it.

First, there is a legitimate question right off the top . . . if everything happened exactly as she says all those years ago . . . and there is no evidence of anything in between . . . does that disqualify him?  Now the righteous left . . . forgetting the Clinton era (and various others . . . like those that wanted a certain Minn Senator to fight) . . . froths when you pose this question . . . much less answer it no.   But nonetheless it is a legitimate question upon which moral and reasonable people can disagree.

But the layers of complexity don't end there . . . because finding her "credible" does not mean you believe it happened at all or like she says it did.  We have come a long way in our understanding of memory, time's effect on memory, trauma's effect on memory.  She could really believe everything she is saying and present it in a believable way and STILL be wrong (see the innocence project for a plethora of examples).  So thinking her credible is not the same as believing everything she said actually happened.

Then another layer on top of that is the partisan nature of this.  I need not lay them out because Graham and others did so.  These things are not irrelevant to the decision.  There is an self-acknowledged stop this at all cost war going on against Kav.  So that is another thing to weigh in this . . . 

Then another layer that ties into this last one . . . the number of simply unbelievable things that piled on at the last moment . . . a woman that can't remember anything specific, one that claims multiple gang rapes and 2 anonymous claims . . . these do not speak to Ford . . . but they speak the levels to which the left will go to stop this.  Which does go to the credibility of all the posturing and maneuvering.

I realize the #metoo age we live in means we are supposed to "believe" the woman and totally in a vacuum let the cards fall . . . yeah, I've got some beach front property in Tenn to sell you.
