First let me say that I firmly believe that someone attacked Dr. Ford. I also firmly believe that an identification made 32 years after the fact, without confirming evidence is highly unreliable. The FBI is now investigating and perhaps they can put this matter to rest.
That said, my point in writing this is that Democrats did not care about Dr. Ford, they did not care about her privacy and they simply viewed her as a political asset. Here are five reasons why.
1) Sen. Feinstein could and should have told the FBI that she had received a credible accusation of sexual misconduct from Kavanaugh's high school years. With this information, the FBI could have looked more closely at his high school behavior. She did not have to even identify Dr. Ford to do this – but she didn't.
2) While she didn't tell the FBI, she did quickly get her a lawyer – a Democratic activist lawyer. This gave the Democrats a high degree influence and control.
3) The Democratic activist lawyer arranged for a polygraph long before her story became public. What would the point of this be if they did not plan for her to “go public”?
4) After this secret was kept for weeks, the accusation and the Dr. Ford's name were leaked just as the Senate committee was about to vote. Are we to believe that this was a coincidence?
5) Finally, when questioned by the committee majority counsel, Dr. Ford revealed that she was never told that she did not have to appear before the committee, since the committee was willing to send investigators to her to take her statement in private. She thanked the committee and it appears that she just might have taken them up on the offer, had she known about it. Watch her committee testimony and decide for yourself. However, that would not have served the political purposes of the Democrats nearly as well as her public testimony.
I stated earlier that I firmly believe that there is SOMETHING REAL at the heart of Dr. Ford's accusation. I do not believe she is lying. That said, she named four witnesses besides Judge Kavanaugh. One of them was her close personal friend – who happens to be a woman. All of the witnesses, including her friend, not only fail to confirm any of her testimony – all four contradict it. Of course, we all know that Judge Kavanaugh has denied the accusation and that he has passed six FBI background checks. One thing the FBI will probably look at is the possibility that someone who resembles Judge Kavanaugh was the actual attacker.
While it is true that Dr. Ford is and will be viewed as a hero by many, given the contradictory testimony and Judge Kavanaugh's denial, many people will label her as a liar. She may be correct (though I doubt it) or she may be sincerely mistaken. She should not be judged a liar even if absolute proof that Judge Kavanaugh is completely innocent should come to light. Had this been handled properly, she would not be in this position. I think that all of us should follow the good example of Judge Kavanaugh's daughter and pray for her.
