Whether it’s “credible” or not is your opinion.
The purpose of the FBI in Supreme Court nomination hearings is to do background checks. By your own admission, they are no longer needed.
Thank you for cleaning that up. That form of commentary is not needed from either side of the political spectrum.
The only way you would know for certain she was telling the truth is if you were there when it happened.
The way I framed it was my wife was telling the truth. But to be honest it doesn’t really matter if she was telling the truth or not. I wouldn’t want her to testify because I know people like you would rip her to pieces and it would devastate our family once Rush and Laura Ingram and Fox News jump on the bandwagon. That’s the point. No way I’m putting my family through that.
No, I would ask questions to find if she is credible. Were you drinking that night, how much to drink, when it happened. Try to find out why she can’t remember why the party was being held, why she can’t remember how she got to the party, why she couldn’t remember how she got home. Then find out why she didn’t bring it up in 2006 when he was confirmed to the bench. Find out why she didn’t report it to the FBI when she remember in 2012. Find out why it was more important that her parents didn’t know about her drinking than reporting a sexual assault to them. That would be a good start.
That’s not ripping to pieces, that gathering facts.
did you just edit my post?
Definitely on his game today! I’ve watched posts appear and disappear right before my eyes.
I’m glad belligerence isn’t tolerated from anyone.
Heck if she had pressed charges 36 years ago it is quite possible that the prosecutors office may not have even taken this case.

I wouldn’t call that “belligerence.”

ok…
I’m not sure which post @Steel-WOLF is talking about, but I saw one from Guyman that was pretty nasty.
Toxicity?

The point is that the credibility of this claim is very questionable especially when there is no physical evidence.
I think he meant to quote you, I deleted his rebutal from your post.

There was no physical evidence during the Clarence Thomas hearings.
He has said he remembers no similar party and does not remember that incident, that in fact it didn’t happen. What further question is there to ask?
How many times don’t your remember that?
How strongly don’t your remember that?
Who was at the party…oih, that’s right, you said it didn’t happen.
Yeah…that’s worth a subpoena.And yet, he seems unwilling to say those things under oath. Odd.
Word in the media is that he was quite an alcoholic. Maybe there are some other things he is afraid he might be asked about.
Or maybe he just doesn’t see any point in going before the country and saying he wasn’t involved in this.

Yep. And Clarence Thomas is still on the Court last I heard.
I hope I didn’t hit the wrong button. SHould have been a reply.
I hate mornings.

Still its best to look for evidence and interview potential witnesses as soon as possible. Preferably within the first 30 years or so.

It would certainly be in his best interest NOT to testify. Whether he sees a point in it or not is irrelevant.
