CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY SEPTEMBER 24, 2018
HOW IS IT THAT ONE WOMAN – CHRISTINE BLASEY FORD — CAN DICTATE TO THE SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE? FORD, WHO HAS ACCUSED SUPREME COURT NOMINEE BRETT KAVANAUGH OF ATTEMPTED RAPE, NOW SAYS THROUGH HER DEMOCRAT LAWYERS SHE MIGHT TESTIFY THIS WEEK IF THE CONDITIONS ARE RIGHT AND SHE FEELS SAFE, WHATEVER THAT MEANS.
THIS IS A SET-UP. IT HAS LITTLE TO DO WITH WHAT SHE ALLEGES HAPPENED MORE THAN THREE DECADES AGO AND EVERYTHING TO DO WITH KEEPING ANOTHER CONSERVATIVE OFF THE SUPREME COURT AND HOPING VOTERS WILL RESTORE DEMOCRATS TO MAJORITIES IN THE HOUSE AND SENATE.
THE MEDIA ARE COMPLICIT IN THIS. FOR THEM, THE MORE LIBERAL THE GOVERNMENT, THE BETTER. I AM MYSTIFIED WHY THE LEFT CONTINUES TO HAVE SUCH INFLUENCE WITH SO MANY THINGS GOING WELL, ESPECIALLY THE ROARING ECONOMY AND WHAT IS EFFECTIVELY FULL EMPLOYMENT.
MEN ARE TERRIFIED OF BEING CALLED SEXISTS AND THAT IS PRIMARILY WHY THEY FEAR THE “BULLY” LABEL IN THE “ME-TOO” ERA. THAT IS WHY THEY ARE BOWING TO FORD’S DEMANDS. WE’LL SEE HOW THIS PLAYS OUT, BUT THE PROCESS HAS BEEN UGLY AND A GOOD MAN HAS BEEN UNFAIRLY SMEARED. I’M CAL THOMAS.
