CNN Asked Five Women If They Believed Kavanaugh. CNN Didn’t Like Their Answers
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
CNN asked five Republican women if they believe Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s denial against an allegation of sexual assault. They all said yes.
The CNN reporter, Radni Kaye, kicked things off by asking them to raise their hands if they believe Kavanaugh.
They all raised their hands
“In the grand scheme of things, my goodness, there was no intercourse, there was a touch,” Irina Vilarino, a GOP voter said. “Really? Thirty-six years later, she’s still stuck on that?”
“Why would she come forward if this wasn’t true?” Kaye asked.
“Because this has basically destroyed her family.
She’s had to move; she’s gone undercover; she’s gotten death threats. So if she’s lying, why come forward?”
“She’s also destroying his life, his wife’s life, his children’s lives, his career,” Vilarino said. “Why didn’t she come out sooner if she’s telling the truth?”
“Why didn’t she come out when he was going into the Bush White House?” Angie Vasquez said. “He’s been a federal judge for over a decade!
“Why not have a thorough investigation instead of just the two of them ‘he said, she said?” Kaye asked.
“Because it doesn’t matter!” another woman said.
“Do you have some sympathy for her for what she’s going through?”
“No,” Lourdes Castillo de la Peña responded. “I have no sympathy.”

And hopefully, these women will be voting
Vic. Don't you think it would have been a little more balanced if there were also 5 Democrat women asked? If it turned out to be 5 against 5 then it could have established that political partisanship outweighed truth, and if at least some of the Democrat women in such a case had supported Kavanaugh, then woe is Ford.
What you think, and a penny, might buy you a gumball.

I thank you'd be wrong in your conclusion.

Poll: Brett Kavanaugh faces unprecedented opposition to Supreme Court confirmation
Susan Page, USA TODAY Sept. 21, 2018
Yes, the Trump administration is a clown show.
And these partisan Republican women have no morals, they've abandoned all reason in order to support this disaster of a President because he promised to allow them to inject more of their religion into secular society and appoint an anti-abortion activist judge to the supreme court.
“Because it (having an accused attempted rapist on the Supreme Court) doesn’t matter!”
“I have no sympathy” , honor, intelligence, patriotism, empathy or self respect because that's what it requires to support this defect of a President.
You have a valid point. CNN did that to show their audience flaws in what the women were saying (it is a technique of the new "journalism"). To your point - If Ford shows up Thursday we will really have something to compare. Ford vs Kavanaugh. Btw Kavanaugh is being interviewed by the pristine Martha MacCallum tonight 7PM EST on FOX (if you get it in China)
I was absolutely disgusted by every one of those women. Do they have girls? Do they warn their daughters that boys will be boys and just suck it up? Do they raise their boys to disrespect women? WTF? They were waxing poetically about how one little thing when someone is 17 shouldn't ruin somebody's life. Of course they forgot to say 'white male life', screw the females. And where is that standard for, I don't know, EVERYBODY ELSE? Minors crossing the border, fuck their lives, they broke the law. Black males? Fuck their lives, they were living while black. Apparently only white lives matter to them because every other example of understanding 'perps' goes to immediate assumption of guilt, unless they are white. Especially white male. These women were more upset that Kavanaugh was upset than in finding out what really happened with the (now mulitple) women. And I think every committee member should ask their own questions, not defer to a female gun for hire for optics. Buckle up everyone. Real women are pissed.
This comment really highlights one of the main issues here. Agree with them or you are not a "real" woman. Sad part is they can't hear how biased and hypocritical they are being.
That said, i hope they're teaching their girls some of the same lessons i taught my kids. One of the most important being Civics 101 really. Innocent until proven guilty ......
The five women who were interviewed for this television segment are not thoughtful people, at least not on this issue.
I have no idea why the seeder posted something that is so embarrassing for his side.
If the right actually thinks they were objectively persuasive it says a lot about the right, none of it good.
That is nothing but your opinion and in as much is worth only that.
Using that logic one can question most of what is posted here. Especially your stuff ....
Maybe they have fathers, husbands, brothers and/or sons and don't want their lives ruined by some liberal woman making a smear to prevent a nomination.
And I think
I'll tell you what I think. I think the US Senate should make a rule preventing anyone from disrupting a confirmation hearing with a sexual allegation over a year old and without some kind of evidence.
The rest of the world is laughing its ass off at us ..... or i should say laughing at the partisans on the left perpetrating this smear campaign.
I hope voters are paying attention. This is the type of governance we can expect if the left takes control of congress. This or much worse.
I saw this interview on CNN. To put it bluntly, it is embarrassing to "Republican women". See the one with the white blouse on? She starts out by saying that there is no way that Kavanaugh could have done what Ford says he did, because "he was an altar boy" and a "boy scout", then as the interview goes along she keeps expanding her protection of Kavanaugh til she finally says it doesn't matter whether he did it or not.
There is a certain level of, uh, stupidity, in most of their answers, which come down to, "who cares?". They have a right to their pre-conceptions , but this interview is not indicative of people who have given this thing any thought.
Not as embarrassing as blindly supporting 36 year old allegations for clearly partisan reasons.
Now THAT IS embarrassing as hell .....
Are you saying that the accusations should not be investigated?
Should all the new ones coming forward be ignored?
Should Bill Cosby be let off the hook because the accusations were too old???
Is that what i said? No
Is that what i said? No
is that what i said? No
That said, it's clear to the most casual of observers that this is a planned, calculated campaign against Kavanaugh and his nomination.
No unbiased, thinking mind can see it any other light the way this is coming down. Those involved should be ashamed of themselves but they won't be. None of them have enough character or class to have even a modicum shame in this case.
was bill cosby investigated before formal statements were given? not a chance.
Wow, that projection is amazing! I'm gobsmacked you don't see the irony.
No projection, not in the least. I'm simply pointing out the obvious.
Of course the obvious usually isn't that clear to the oblivious i suppose. ..... gobsmacked or otherwise.
Why are you responding to something that was not part of my question?
Are you unable to answer my question?
Would answering it show just how empty your beliefs are?
Let me repeat my question since you seem a little confused:
Actually, she speaks about Kavanaugh's impeccable reputation prior to that falling out of her face. This interview was meant to be viewed as 'stupid' and to be 'embarassing'. We certainly can't be led to believe that these five Southern Florida women represent all "Republican women".
Women who have had incidents occur in their past understand that memories from over 30 years ago are not precise. I can recall a party where my bathing suit bottoms were removed and thrown. I remember the embarrassment. A male 'friend' did it...I was 16 and NO alcohol was involved. I do not remember WHO held me and WHO actually pulled them off, but I remember the incident. Stuff like that happens to all girls, right? That's what I told myself back then anyway.
So, the alleged incident with Blasey-Ford may have occurred, but was it really Brett Kavanaugh and Mark Judge who were there? Did Mark Judge's book help her memories? The book was published prior to her revelations to her therapist and her husband. The ongoing question is "Why would she put herself through this?" Well, it could be that she believes it to be true and feels that it is now her duty to reveal it to the Nation. Unfortunately, she failed to tell anyone about it at the time of occurrence...and the delay in the accusation does not bode well for credibility.
You're right - this interview is not indicative of people who have given this allegation any thought.
It's pretty clear that the Democrats and their media allies have adopted the techniques of the judges in the Salem Witch trials. Although that's not fair to the Salem Witch judges, who at least were dealing with an alleged ongoing problem, not allegations from 4 decades ago. In their crusade to destroy Kavanaugh the Democrats have thrown every legal concept our country was founded on out the window and then shit on them for good measure.
No honest person can do anything but recoil in horror at what the democrats are doing to a better man than they are despite eyewitness after eyewitness refuting the "allegations."
The Democrats behavior is a new low, and one that will cause damage to the country for decades.
Shame on those of you cheering on the witch hunters.
I would have used the Benghazi investigations as an analogy myself. But at least in both Benghazi and the witch trials there was an appearance of an investigation, not an attempt to just ignore all the accusations.
Oh right, more of the asking Ms. Ford to testify is "silencing her" line of orwellian thought Democrats have been pushing.
That is actually a lie, there is NO CURRENT INVESTIGATION being done by the gop. PERIOD. They must be afraid of one because why wouldn't they want to be thorough?
actually...
there has been no investigation because there has been no formal statement made.
she will have to give a formal complaint / signed statement...
the fact she has not and will not give a formal complaint does not help her credibility problem
Of course they did, notice political affiliation. You have to ask independents if you wanna get any answers that don't reek of bias.
Here's another women I'm sure who believes him. My point being made is that you can dig up anyone with an opposing views. Some women applaud and cheer men who are vulgar and abusive while others have more respect for themselves and would never compromise their moral principals.
Her t shirt is asking Trump to grab her pussy, isn't it? ( arrow pointed to her crotch)
Too bad for her she's not his type.
And if they are radical enough, they will make a false accusation to keep someone off the Court
