The Kavanaugh mess

I have been asked by many people if I believe the woman accusing Kavanaugh of sexual molestation.  No, not as presented.  She cannot remember the house this took place in,  she cannot remember the day, she cannot remember how old she was.  I know a few women who have had this happen to them.  They remember the place in vivid detail.  They remember the man, they remember how he smelled.  They definitely remember the day and the exact date.  Why?  Because this is the time that all power over their own bodies was taken from them.  They remember because it destroyed who they were.  And 36 years, no.  Do I think it happened?  I don't know.  I can say this: high school girls talk about everything.  This would not have been kept quiet.  Every girl in that high school would have known about it.  Every one of them.  So what I think it is is a political stunt by the democrats.  And that is all it is.  They are willing to destroy two people to get what they want and make no mistake, this woman is just as destroyed as is Kavanaugh.  Neither will recover from this. 

As soon as this metoo movement started, i expected this to happen.  And all this does is denigrate those who have really suffered severe attacks.  It waters down what happened to them.  It makes them less credible.  It puts us back in the 1960's when if a woman was raped, it was her fault.  It was because she smiled at him in a seductive way, or she was wearing seductive clothing, or she had lose morals.  Every woman that was actually raped was put on trial and it was almost like the rapist was the victim.  And we are returning to that.  And by making this political, it is speeding up the return.  Rape is a ghastly crime.  It is about violence. It is about destroying the woman's self esteem.  It is about destroying the woman.  And it is about taking power from the woman.  It makes the woman an object for the man to use as he wishes.  And we are quickly returning to this.  Those politicians that started this were women and should be ashamed of themselves.  They know what will happen but they don't care as long as they get what they want.  They have no empathy nor any soul.
