Below is my letter I have sent by email to Senators Corker, Manchin and others who seem open to both sides concerns about the Kavanaugh hearings.
Do you believe it is fair to make disparaging statements insinuating either Kavanaugh or Ford is lying without proof for either one by admission?
Some people seem to be okay with assuming Ford is guilty and slamming her for lying about the charges, when all that was proven was she was inconsistent about issues of delays (flights or offers to go to her location).
Others seem to be okay with slamming Kavanaugh even though he had corroborated testimony by a second witness, Mark Judge, both under oath; while Ford only had her own testimony and didn't meet the same standards.
Both camps accuse the other of either pushing or delaying the confirmation, as the reason for either pushing or rejecting Investigations. So why not separate the two processes?
If you take one side over the other, please show by vote, and also please explain in a post why you think it's okay for you to do that without proven guilt lying about charges, but not okay for the other side to assume guilt without proof. Do you think it's justifiable for one side to slam opponents but not the other? Don't they contradict their own arguments against judging witnesses as lying without proof?
Here's my letter below, which you are free to copy and email to Senators or any others you would ask to stop bullying either Ford or Kavanaugh by assuming guilt without proof, instead of assuming they are both honest and will admit to faults if given the chance to correct the record (which I hope fuller investigation will allow).
========
OPEN LETTER to Senators Bob Corker and Joe Manchin et al:
Dear Senator Joe Manchin:
To protect due process for both Kavanaugh and Ford, both of whom I fully believe and support as a Democrat and Constitutionalist,
please urge and vote for the confirmation, as well as require a full investigation of the issues and charges so there is no time limit or pressure put on the process.
Both Ford and Kavanaugh spoke truthfully with full integrity and deserve due process without deprivation of liberty; they both deserve to receive what they request and petition for.
Please allow both to receive what they ask.
Because I believe both Kavanaugh and Ford and believe she deserves a full investigation which can take place after confirmation.
Please confirm Kavanaugh under the condition that he resign immediately should an investigation prove that he perjured himself.
This would be the fairest solution I see that would treat and protect them both equally.
I believe them both, and support both Democrats and Republicans in respecting the due process of both Kavanaugh and Ford.
Please be fair to both and deprive neither one of what they request for themselves.
Yours truly,
