Is that really what we want? Do we want to go back to the days of j edgar hoover when he had a secret file on everyone and no one dared to cross him. The FBI need to do their job and not be used as a pawn for the liberal agenda.
I can understand her wanting to be confidential. This stuff does not go away. She is marked now for the rest of her life. Still I do not see how it is possible for her to be confidential. Ask people like tonya harding anita hill and monica lewinsky if they think her life will ever return to normal.
My father served our community for 50 years as a Pedestrian. 20% of children are investigated for sexual abuse. There is a procedure to follow and turning this into a three ring circus is not the proper procedure. There are very strict laws for how to dispose of his medical records. My brother could have received a $10,000 fine if we did not handle those records properly. If your going to get the FBI involved then find out who leaked this women's letter and in the very least fine them $10,000 so things like this do not happen in the future. Although actually it is a $100,000 fine and up to a year in jail to release information like that. rachel maddow did a show on that law about government workers releasing information like that and it is a serious offense. Actually it should be a serious offense for CNN to make that letter public the way they did. With little or no regard for Ford and the safety of her and her family.
Oh yeah! 
Sometimes some aspects of American politics are more clearly seen from outside the country than from within it. From the dirty politics that have occurred since the appointment of Donald Trump to the Presidency, then many outside of the U.S. would have those suspicions.
U.S. citizens are very nationalistic and patriotic and would refuse to see that dirty politics and corruption that would exist, in the same way that we outside of the U.S. would see it. Us New Zealanders would have the same patriotic attitude toward our own politicians as well.
It is only a thought, and I have just as much evidence as the woman has to support her allegation.
Only if there is no substantive evidence to back up the accusations. Remember the time when "recovered memories" were the vogue where women could make claims of historical sexual abuse, when there was no other evidence then they "remembered"; and many of those "memories" were proved absolutely false after the alibi of the accused men were established?
That is not how they do things there. You can not change the rules in the middle of the game. The rules are all decided before the game begins. The democrats are the ones that made the rules, now they have to be judged by the rules that they made. Everyone gets judged in accordance to the way they judge others. Everyone establishes their own standard.
