    You are referencing the times that she was specifically asked about statements on those pieces of paper.

    What's up with him scrunching up his face all the time?
    They're asking for an FBI investigation because they do the background checks. They won't provide a conclusion, but they can provide supporting evidence and they come back and tell us if anyone has lied about anything related to this. The FBI could come back and say there was evidence Ford was in a different country at the time and made it all up, at the same time they could come back and tell us Kav lied about a number of things. We aren't looking at a criminal charge, we just need more evidence to support or disprove these allegations.

    When a neoconservative(Lindsey Graham) speaks truth, you know we've entered weird times.

    Or someone accuses X of stealing their car.
    Which means X has the responsibility to Prove they
    didn't steal the car.And the owner who accuses X of
    stealing that car comes later as to proof.

    I thought her memory was rock solid(Hint: We both know it wasn't, though you believe it's not damning. For me it is. Inconsistent statements on memory don't bode well for the 'case'...(As Graham pointed out, such as it is a 'case').

    Next time you want to report theft to your insurance company, see how far you get telling them your $120k Tesla was stolen with a $50k set of golf clubs in the trunk, but you have no proof you ever bought it or owned one or play golf at all. You think they'll take you at your word? Guess again mojumbo. =)

    Interesting take on it from Nate Silver:

    So far, it seems like the relatively bipartisan consensus is that Ford did well, whereas there’s a very big partisan split on how folks think Kavanaugh is doing. One potential equilibrium outcome from that is that he’ll have hung in there just well enough to get confirmed, especially if Trump pushes for it, but he’ll also become more unpopular so there will be a higher political price to the GOP for doing so.

    they might want to look into her husband/previous boyfriends and even her father if she is that damaged then its clearly more then just this summernight 35-36 years ago
    considering they brought K his family in this it seems fitting to put hers through it to if the vote fails personally

    He's got a 'weak stomach'. If that's the case, he couldn't possibly drink until he's blacked out. Which means that it's another contradiction to Ford.

    That's cool... Sidebar what do you think of the woman hired by the repbulicans and her questioning of Kavanaugh? I think she's not throwing him soft balls

    Doubtful. The top two choices from McConnell would have sailed through compared to Kavanaugh. But neither of them have the same views on prosecuting sitting Presidents....

    I have her word, and his and unlike her, he's provided physical evidence(the calendar) to attempt to corroborate. I still treat this like America. Other Americans wanna go North Korea on Brett Kavanaugh.

    And the fact that many guys, if they were THAT drunk, weren't getting it up anyway.

    I hope everyone in America is watching this. Because I've never, EVER seen a more pathetic group of people as these ****ing idiot democrats are. Graham was right. Talking about yearbooks? Farts? Drinking? The American people are laughing at you losers!

    She seems solid... I didn't expect that she would be questioning Kavanaugh.... We'll see if she gets the mike back after Lindsey exploded....

    As I said earlier, I thought she was going to question Ford more about the assault, not discuss Flying and Polygraphs and Letters...

    Yeah, I think she's done now... Cornyn is using words now....

    And do you think you're any less partisan? At least I'm backing the dude willing to corroborate and willing to accept 'any investigation' and like Graham said: They can go to the FBI themselves.
