And Democrats were forced to confront this ugly truth about Brett Kavanaugh’s sex scandal.
Washington Post columnist rips Christine Blasey Ford’s book tour
Psychologist Christine Blasey Ford is on a media blitz to promote her memoir One Way Back.
Ford’s interviews provide the media a chance to take her baseless allegations that Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her at a party when the two were in high school seriously and ignore the fact there isn’t a shred of proof to back any of this up.
One member of the media who didn’t fall for this gag was Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker who authored a piece entitled “Christine Blasey Ford is no hero, if justice is the measure.”
Parker contrasted the gauzy media treatment Ford received to how Mark Judge – one of the witnesses Ford claimed could back up her story but who told the FBI Kavanaugh never interacted with Ford in his life – gets the cold shoulder from the press.
“Christine Blasey Ford is promoting her new memoir to acclaim from certain quarters, including a glowing review by the New York Times. Meanwhile, the man she accused of being a witness to her alleged sexual assault by now-Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh more than 40 years ago can’t get his own book reviewed or even mentioned by mainstream newspapers,” Parker stated.
Judge told the truth and Ford made false claims yet the press treated her as the hero.
Ford’s female friend backs up Kavanaugh
Ford claimed her friend Leland Keyser could substantiate her story about Kavanaugh sexually assaulting her at a party.
Keyser told the FBI she never remembered anything like that happening.
Parker wrote that Ford’s friends pressured her into changing her story to conform to Ford’s version of the event.
When that didn’t work, Parker wrote that Ford’s allies threatened to smear Keyser by going public with her struggle with painkillers.
“When intimidation didn’t work, Ford and her friends implied that Keyser’s testimony couldn’t be trusted because she had ‘significant health challenges,’ as Ford put it during her testimony. It didn’t take long for the meaning here to become public. Keyser had at one point become addicted to painkillers prescribed for golf-related back and neck injuries. She has suffered years of surgeries and pain that continues today, thanks to her commitment to recovery. No meds. She also has had to cope with the psychological effects of her persecution by the anti-Kavanaugh brigade. At least one person from Team Ford tried to persuade her to adjust her story. She refused,” Parker added.
Judge and Keyser, according to Kathleen Parker, were the real heroes because they faced enormous pressure to lie when no one would have known the difference.
The media would have celebrated them as brave truth-tellers.
But they couldn’t live with destroying someone over a falsehood.
