Is Christine Ford credible?

She is either making the whole thing up or she was accosted by two other men. Sometimes this "repressed" memory business is very suspect. Even when a victim is "100% sure", the victim might be wrong.

This was reflected in a story shared by Glenn Beck of a woman at a news conference who was 100% sure the man she identified as her rapist was the guy. She "had studied him carefully", every bit of his face and other pertinent information and in the end a DNA test proved she was wrong.

Mrs. Ford does not have any corroborating evidence, there are no pictures or witnesses to the attack, in fact any witnesses who have come forward say in Judge Kavenaugh's defense that it never happened.

 

She'll be convicted for her lies. She's been a black hat CIA operative for years. Her father was a big shot with the CIA back in the day.

Everything will come out about her and her 'support team" of the fringe left.

President Trump is right about this supplemental FBI review --it's a blessing in disguise.

All this deference to her is nauseating.

 

No. Her claims do not pass "the rules of evidence." You can tell by listening to her that she is mentally ill.

 

So, the FBI can be trusted to go against the deep state in this case and bring out the truth?

 

She's lying about a lot of things.

 

I think that she is mentally ill, also.

Her testimony has been refuted 100%.

 

The Murdochs are moving left. Secondly, the GOP did a bad job. Thirdly, they don't know much about trials.

Ford has been refuted 100%.

 

I consider her story incredible due to its extreme lack of detail coupled with a complete lack of corroboration from supposed witnesses. I see no good reason to believe such a lone story.

I agree with much of what you mentioned, but the demeanor of a witness can play a significant part. For example, in admitting her blatant lie, she seemed unabashed, grinning and excusing it. She made it clear she finds it quite easy to lie, and amusing, even with the seriousness of the situation. Fail.

Given her level of education and experience, her additional claim to not understand their offer of a more convenient setting for her testimony makes it a Complete Fail.

 

No. The agents would have to be handpicked by those who know they are not deep state. I do not know how that would be accomplished.

 

Ford lied about needing time to drive from California because she had already flown to Delaware and was not in California.

 

In large part, her testimony seems credible because of the emotion already cited. The president himself said she was credible and compelling. It would not be politically wise for a man to say she was not credible just based on observations mentioned here, especially with a supplemental FBI investigation in the works.

It was fine for a female pundit to say she did not find Ford credible, especially someone as gracious and poised as Candace. Sarah Sanders did a great job of keeping it in balance by saying she would not want any of her children, male or female, to be convicted by accusation, that a determination should be made on facts in evidence. The likelihood of evidence in favor of Ford seems remote at this point.

 

Well, not all of them. Check out this clip where Lisa Boothe and Joe diGenova both find her testimony not credible. Lisa starts out by citing the need to look at the facts (@ 10:32, right after they call out Comey).

 

If this is serious and true, why did DiFi sit on it for two months instead of calling the police right away and stopping the confirmation process immediately? Did DiFi find Ford credible? Why are Ford's parents silent?

 

Just started listening a minute ago. Not a whole minute into her testimony, and I see her "tearful" speech is an act. It's just like the amateur on Law and Order telling the cops about her trauma, keeping a sustained and even level on the high pitched scratchiness throughout her speech.

No one fighting emotion talks that way.

 

She should come to me for acting lessons.

 

I can't imagine that is her natural voice. It's called vocal fry and I have been critical of it for years. It's become a popular way of talking among some young people, although she's not in that category. One 24 year old woman I know speaks in this matter and it makes me wince. I had spoken to a friend two months ago about this phenomena. He had heard it a number of times but didn't have a term for it. When he heard parts of Ford's testimony. He said he instantly thought of me and our conversation about this tick. That manner of speaking is very annoying.

Notice how often she smiled, as if enjoying being the center of attention?

For someone supposedly coming from academia she sure came off as a ditz.

 

They are being politically correct. They just can't come out and say she's a ditz.
