The Atlantic: Brett Kavanaugh Spoke Politics; Christine Blasey Ford 'Spoke Science'

AngieArtist

"Kavanaugh" is trending on X right now. As I reported earlier, Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who testified at his confirmation hearing that Brett Kavanaugh had raped her, was a guest on "The View," where the hosts noted that even to this day, some people are skeptical of her story. I was wondering why she'd surfaced, and it looks like she's got a memoir to sell. The Atlantic has done a piece on it, saying that Ford was "piecing together fragments of a story, parts of which she had forgotten." Exactly; a story.

She offered evidence? What evidence was that?

I kind of took the Kavanaugh hearings seriously because we share the same name, and I hate to see it dragged through the mud.

Oh yes, there was the science.

Writing a puff piece about a memoir by a woman who can't remember anything. I'm sure it's fascinating reading.

Do I think Ford made up the whole story? Yes, I do. Abortion is a sacrament to the Left, and Kavanaugh posed a threat to Roe v. Wade. Someone had to step up and do something, so Ford accused him of rape.

The Kavanaugh hearings were an abomination, the absolute worst picture of what a senator would do to hold onto power.

Megan Garber writes that Ford's memoir "doubles as a modern-day horror story."

“I am here today not because I want to be. I am terrified,” Christine Blasey Ford said in the fall of 2018, introducing herself to the Senate Judiciary Committee and a television audience of millions. Early in One Way Back, the memoir Ford has written about her testimony, its origin, and its aftermath, she repeats the line. She feels that terror again, she writes. She is afraid of having her words taken out of context, of being a public figure, of being misunderstood. “Stepping back into the spotlight comes with an infinite number of things to worry about,” Ford notes, before returning to the story at hand. The moment is brief, but remarkable all the same: Rare is the writer who will confess to fearing her own book.

No one asked for it, as far as I know. She could have skipped it and lived her privileged life. She sure didn't look like she was feeling that terror on "The View."

Kavanaugh was confirmed. Roe v. Wade was struck down. Ford has a book to sell. Sheldon Whitehouse is still looking through Kavanaugh's high school yearbook with a magnifying glass looking for proof he was a gang rapist.
