I have taken three and been through 40 hours of classroom training on the poly, that test Ford took was BS.

Wouldn’t working in the White House qualify for that?

An opinion piece. My opinion is he's 100% qualified.

I'm more trustworthy than any hack media person.

Has zero to do with Ford, I could not care less about this incident as it was a long, long time ago and Kavanaugh himself was not arrested (funny that one).

This one should be very easy to prove.
That and saying it to a newspaper is a whole lot different than saying it under penalty of felony. I fully expected these kinds of smear stories to crawl out of the woodwork when they announced the delay for an investigation. Called it that day. Remember the same thing happened with the Duke Lacrosse case and UVA story. Once it was found out those allegations were false, those people who claimed these stories to smear the accused just faded away never to be heard again. Funny that.

Frankly, I think the betting odds have more to with bettors gauging Congress than a direct comment on Kavanaugh's behavior. Because just as some Congress critters will never accept Kavanaugh, others will support him no matter how he acts.

Sure about that ? The reports i've read stated "they denied it happened", not sure if that was their direct statement or how the news reported it.

Given my job in the military back then, we took a seminar/class on how polys are beaten. Always considered that ironic since one of the things I had to do for my clearance was take a poly. Also learned interrogation techniques - that was fun.

Several cross outs and it's basically what she said in her testimony in the Judicial Committee Hearing.
The polygraph had ONLY two questions and both concerned this written statement. The polygraph examiner (one used by the Katz, Bain Law firm) judged her "passing the Polygraph". Odd that the test was in a Hotel and on the day of her Grandmothers funeral -- which even shocked the Arizona gal.

NOTHING about the Letter she sent to Dianne Feinstein or anything else except the events as she remembered them

Read this yellow paper statement very, very closely - and see if you can spot what is missing.

The names of people don't appear anywhere in this statement that determined the results of the Polygraph Test. She uses 2 first names "Brett & Mark" and that's it. Once again - very fuzzy about who was there and it's a very bare bones statement that the Polygraph Examiner wasn't very interested in at all ..... just "is this statement true"?

That's very interesting. Lawyer Katz & Bain got what they wanted and they got it long before the Washington Post story came out. Text was done on August 7.
Kind of puts the lie to everything. She planned to come out long before Feinstein outed her. By the time that leak happened, she had already scrubbed her social media and take a polygraph.

Then it is time that RBG is impeached.
