y'all may want to consider investing in some of those new-fangled spectacles mentioned up-thread.

apparently that and a side of quavery voice may be all that's needed to derail a SC nominee.

Well, that proves everything then.

"My mind is getting a little bit tired" she just said. She's been on the stand how long now? With most senators bragging on how heroic she is?

She met with a senator ALONE, without an attorney, or even her husband, or best friend or any other witness? She didn't think she would need an attorney???????? She's accusing a SUPREME COURT NOMINEE of sexual assault and she doesn't think she needs an attorney?

Good lord.

Ooops, here goes her famous memory at work again. Oh, she was interviewing lawyers, but she didn't speak to ANYONE ELSE about the situation. She was staying with her parents and didn't talk with them about it during that time either. My goodness.

She said she didn't see the need for lawyers but now she was on a lawyer interviewing kick - this was in August I guess? When did she get the advice from her "beach friends?" What the heck.

Blumenthal - the guy who lied about his service (or lack thereof) in Vietnam - I can't believe he's still got any credibility. Anyway, now he's pandering to her, calling her heroic, inspiring. Oh my gosh.

Bharara nailed it.





so being fired by Trump makes his opinion more credible for you to post his meaningless tweet? LOL

So far, her testimony is casting unfavorable light on those institutions of "higher learning", not to mention the mental health "industry".

What a farce this is.
Most psychologists and psychiatrists are bat**** crazy themselves. That's what compels them to go into the field. She's nothing more than a typical psychologist.

Yes, her high-rising terminals are annoying as hell! She sounds like exactly what she is: a flakey California academic. The psychobabble doesn't help, either.

Be real and get over yourself.

(for the record I'm not watching -- just reading comments and it is straight down party line or Trump lines right now, so let's not pretend there is any kind of special intelligence, wisdom).
I'm not a Trump fan, voted Hillary, and I think she has several major problems with her testimony. The conflicting statements about being afraid to fly and not remembering if she had given her therapy notes to the Post.

Yep. Her story is unraveling bit by bit...
