A political smear and the 6th Amendment . . . "We know one thing about Dr. Ford: multiple years in various universities did not prepare her to be an informed citizen. She obviously knows nothing about the Constitution of the United States. She may know psychologists Jung and Freud but she does not know the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution. It destroys her charges, not because Kavanaugh didn’t assault her; he denies that, but because she just made the charge with no proof whatsoever.
"Apparently she is unaware of the Bill Rights of the U.S. Constitution. It is the Sixth Amendment that concerns us here. It is clear that Judge Kavanaugh has rights “to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; (and) to be confronted with the witnesses against him…”
"What we have, though, is a left-wing political activist who is a politically illiterate woman making unsubstantiated charges of something she claims happened decades ago in which she has no witnesses or proof.
"Liberal Democrat activist Ford is sabotaging a Republican Supreme Court nomination that literally was only days from being approved. Her support comes from 85-year-old Senator Dianne Feinstein who appears to be having serious memory problems and who says she can’t guarantee the truthfulness of the charges. Ever fair Ford supporter Senator Mazie Hirono (D-HA) declares that “men should shut up.” Emphasis mine, TD
Parents of Boys Should Be Outraged at Democrats "The circus that Democrats are putting on for all the world to witness is a display of partisanship that should disgust even the casual observer, regardless of party. Shockingly, as disgusting as their blatant disregard for the integrity of the Supreme Court confirmation process is, it's not even close to the clear and present danger that their immediate presumption of guilt for Judge Kavanaugh poses to our nation's boys and young men.
"Parents of boys must understand the brave new world Democrats are attempting to usher in and the legitimate threats it poses to their sons' futures – their reputations, college and career prospects, and general welfare.
"Democrats' instantaneous presumption of guilt for Judge Kavanaugh is setting a new standard for sexual assault allegations wherein they should be accepted simply for having been made. Moreover, the allegations are to be believed, despite lacking any semblance of credible evidence, solely for having been made by a woman.
"Consider Democratic senator Hirono from Hawaii's recent comments: "Not only do women like Dr. Ford, who bravely come forward, need to be heard, but they need to be believed."
"Statements like that of Sen. Hirono, of which there have been a plethora, undermine the very nature of our nation's judicial system and rule of law by placing the burden to disprove the allegations on the accused and, thus, rendering him guilty should he be unable to persuade the mob in the court of public opinion." . . .
