Ford’s Ex-Boyfriend Contradicts Her on Polygraph

 

"The ex-boyfriend of one of the women accusing Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct has suggested to the Senate Judiciary Committee that she may have perjured herself on several issues during her testimony.

Christine Blasey Ford testified Thursday to Congress about her allegation that the Supreme Court nominee sexually assaulted her at a party in the early 1980s when they were both minors in high school. Kavanaugh trapped her in a room, pinned her to a bed, and covered her mouth while trying to remove her clothing, Ford said, an incident that has caused her lasting trauma.

During her testimony, Ford stated under oath that she has never coached anyone on taking a lie detector test.

“Never,” she answered when asked whether she had offered advice to any individual planning to submit to a polygraph examination.

On Monday, the Senate Judiciary Committee said they had received a sworn statement from a man claiming to be Ford’s former boyfriend, whose name is redacted from his letter, saying he personally witnessed Ford coaching a friend for a polygraph test.

During some of the time we were dating, Dr. Ford lived with Monica L. McLean, who I understood to be her life-long best friend,” the letter read. “During that time, it was my understanding that McLean was interviewing for jobs with the FBI and the US Attorney’s Office. I witnessed Dr. Ford help McLean prepare for a potential polygraph exam. Dr. Ford explained in detail what to expect, how polygraphs worked and helped McLean become familiar and less nervous about the exam. Dr. Ford was able to help because of her background in psychology."

 

well that's interesting... it'll be very interesting to see some of the changes in responses now and lack thereof

Honestly I don't see how her testimony was moving to begin with, starting with teehee fear of flying, well not when vacation tee, hee.  Honestly she was giggling about how funny her fear of flying , or lack of is.  Coupled with the lying about her name coming out.  The best that can come of  this is people realize that  comedians like John Oliver  are really dishonest.


" The best that can come of  this is people realize that  comedians like John Oliver  are really dishonest."

 

that's not going to happen... the ideology driving all of this nonsense is far too tempting

for one it bestows upon its host the mantle of having the "moral high ground" and being "a good person" 

and apparently many people don't care or have been so impaired that they cannot acknowledge the constant dishonesty or delusion

and i'm not talking specifically about this case only but i'll give you an example taken from this case

 

now a big term i've been seeing a lot recently is "toxic masculinity" which partially refers to men being influenced to remain stoic and never express their emotions and how toxic masculinity needs to be done away with in our society

what has been the main criticism(since they cannot focus on evidence) of kavanaugh so far? keeping in mind the context of his reputation being destroyed and his family experiencing death threats... well that he's too emotional and not stoic enough... and to my amusement the irony here always seems to be lost on these people lol

 

but regardless i don't even necessarily think the woman is lying, but my stance is that the focus needs to be on evidence if this is really about bringing about justice for a sexual assault...  which its probably not, but i'm open minded
