  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

The the FBI was prevented from making a full and fair investigation. The president did not want these claims investigated. Trump did obstruction of justice in firing Comey and McCabe. Like his friend Putin, Trump hated the press. He called the press the "enemy of the people." Trump went too Helsinki to meet Putin and praised Russian intelligence above US intelligence.

Numerous witnesses from Kavanaugh's Yale days testified against Kavaugh claiming he should not be appointed to the Supreme Court. These people were not called to testify.

Opinion | Elizabeth Warren’s new, tantalizing claim about Kavanaugh shows what utter madness this is

You might want to research Elizabeth Warren, my friend and brother in Christ, and thus any claims to "credibility" regarding Ms. Warren and anything she has to say about anything or anyone (Hint: Suze Orman).

Reading the link would help.

It is not about Kavanaugh, nor the FBI, but it is in fact about the media not doing its job

Does her story about why she went to marital counseling stand scrutiny? Apparently not. She said the marital tensions stemmed from her demanding a “second front door” because of her fears of another assault — but the second front door actually was built several years before the counseling, and was used as an entrance, apparently, by… get this… the very “couples counselor” involved, who used Ford’s own home as the counselor’s place of business.

Has she ever, in her life, shown any prior fear of flying before she claimed such a fear as the reason why she needed to delay her hearing? (Answer: Apparently no.)

This from the OP article:

"Granted, there is an important line, not to be crossed, between rational examination of relevant information and, on the other hand, blaming or bullying the putative victim. Yet the examination mustbe done. The accused cannot be automatically assumed to be guilty. This isn’t just a legal principle, but a moral one. A false allegation, even if it never reached a court of law, can ruin reputations and even lives."

And people wonder why sexual assault victims are reluctant to come forward.

As quoted above.

What wasn't investigated? Who wasn't questioned in connection to Dr. Ford's allegations against Judge Kavanaugh?

I also stand by what was quoted.

The gentleman is your meme is, in my opinion is beneath replying to.

When accusation alone is enough to convict then our rule of law has miserably fail. When you have a person no matter who it is that can bring a claim that is unsubstantiated And uncorroborated and ruin another person’s life because of it we fallen. And lady justice is no longer blind. And her scales are no longer true.

The media is no longer in the business of reporting news. They are now making it up according to artisan politics and whom they support.

If they support you, they go silent when facts are arrayed against the political message.

If they do not support you, they inflame everything they can against you.
