It is a very ugly situation.
Facts:
1. Kavanaugh has had background checks done on him 6 times. These involve talking to coworkers, classmates, professors, neighbors, friends and family. It is very difficult to imagine that someone in his position, with his power, would not have manifested this behavior repeatedly and that this behavior would have been discovered in previous background checks.
2. This woman didn't ever report a crime.
3. This woman does not have any physical evidence (ripped blouse, DNA, photograph of her after the "attack")
4. She doesn't remember the party or the day
5. The other person she claims saw it says he didn't, however he has previously written a book about him being an alcoholic and drunken HS parties. This would have been common knowledge to anyone looking to discredit Kavanaugh.
6. They knew about this claim two months before dropping it at the last moment supporting the assertion that this is a desperate attempt to delay the process.
7. No corroborating witnesses have come forward to support this assertion.
8. Many people have stepped forward to provide positive character witness for Kavanaugh.
On the other hand
1. Kavanaugh is quoted in a speech where he quotes a Dean from that HS that "what happens in that school stays in that school" supporting the assertion that he did things in HS he is not proud of.
2. Kavanaugh's friend in HS was a drunk who attended many wild, drunken parties.
There are two possible "truths".
1. This woman is telling the truth, in which case this kid did something he was not proud of, but didn't rise to the level of a crime.
2. This woman is a false witness brought in by the Democrats in a desperate attempt to slow down the process.
Conclusion
We are choosing someone to be on the Supreme court for possibly 30+ years. Therefore if this is true it is relevant for the Senators to make a decision. On the other hand if this woman is a false witness I would want a full investigation by the FBI, determine this and then convict everyone involved in this crime of slander.
Therefore I support the request for a full FBI investigation and I agree that delaying this process a few weeks is a minor inconvenience.
