Who is Christine Ford?

‘Many dislike Professor Ford due to her dark personality’

Brett Kavanaugh’s formerly anonymous accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, has come forward. She’s a professor in the Social Work Department at California State University – Fullerton. Many interested in learning more about who Ford is have come across her students’ reviews on RateMyProfessors.com.

They’re … not good.

Overall, she scores 2.3 out of 5 (a failing grade if the roles were reversed). The reviews span from 2010 – 2014, which rules out students tampering with her reviews as part of the current Kavanaugh controversy.

“Christine ford is the worst educator I have ever experienced,” one student wrote. “Avoid taking her class and avoid any interaction with this person. I feel like she has something wrong with her and I am surprised no one has caught this. Also avoid fullerton’s MSW program as long as she is there.”

Another student reported feeling afraid of her, noting she has a vengeful streak.

“Prof. Ford is unprofessional, lacks appropriate filters, and I am honestly scared of her,” he/she wrote in a 2014 review. The student reported receiving an A in her class despite his or her displeasure with the professor. “She’s made comments both in class and in e-mails, if you cross her, you will be on her bad side. I fear to think of the poor clients that had to deal with her while she got her MSW and her LCSW. Absolutely the worst teacher I ever had.”

Another student said her teaching style is the “opposite” of empowering.

“Do not take her class,” a student warned in 2013. “She is unclear with directions. Hard grader and talks for 2hr 45min without giving a break. she is exact opposite of what she teaches. empowering??? not at all.”

Another student said in 2010 her teaching is so bad, students will find themselves reaching for antidepressants:

More supportive students offered tempered praise.

Kavanaugh Accuser Christine Blasey Ford Donned Pussy Hat for Protest

She is also a feminist who has publically protested Donald Trump

Shocking, I know.

 

[Votto]

I'm beginning to wonder if the reason Feinstein failed to reveal the accusations during the time that Congress was investigating Kavanaugh is because she did not want Ford up there giving testimony before the entire country, knowing that something was very, very, wrong with her.

Report: Kavanaugh's mother ruled against accuser's parents

My, my, it also looks like Kavanaugh was a judged who ruled against Christine Ford's family in their foreclosure.

Bad blood I reckon.

Sigh

 

[Lumpy 1]

Chuck Schumer, Democrat leadership, fake news and their fake newsers have put their total credibility on the line for her, this should be interesting..

Breaking news reports there will be a hearing on next Monday..

Democrats are screwed ...

We need her to testify before the entire Congress with it televised.

Let's see if she has all her marbles.

My guess is no.

We already saw the character of people who have already attacked Trump publically.

Very telling

He went to law school and got his in a righteous, rigorous field of academia. On the other hand, well she is a professor of Social Work. Underwater basket weaving without an appreciable end product.

I tell you what, it's a good thing ms ford didn't have Ted Kennedy drive her home that night!

 

[Shrimpbox]

Just one look at her lawyer and you know exactly where this is going. Let’s see. California, professor at leftist university, virulently anti trump, under therapy, blacked out for years, was fearful for her life, and as her lawyer said, Ford is ready to do anything, and then she caught her self before saying to stop the nomination, to tell her story.

But here is where I really can’t stand what is going on. There is not a,person on this board or for that matter a person anywhere who has not done something as a teenager that would be disqualifying if they did it 40 years later. If we as a society are going to let unprovable allegations that happened when people were children disqualify you after 30 years of stellar service and immense accomplishment than the best and the brightest will continue to avoid public service and our country will continue to suffer for it. This is gutter politics and a disgrace and makes me ashamed of our politicians.

Kavanaugh Accuser Christine Blasey Ford Donned Pussy Hat for Protest

She is also a feminist who has publically protested Donald Trump

Shocking, I know.

She's a big-time Trump hater.

11 Reasons to Question the Veracity of Kavanaugh's Accuser

"In favor of Ford's accusation: She reportedly told her therapist a version of this story in 2012, and her husband likewise says she told him, too. At the suggestion of her attorney, she also successfully took a polygraph test in early August.

There are also reasons to question Ford's allegation. Here are the top 11:

11. Ford's therapist's notes of the incident don't match her current version of the story.

Ford says Kavanaugh pinned her down and attempted to take off her bathing suit; in the room also, she said, was his friend, Mark Judge. Ford first told this story in 2012 — about 30 years later — to her therapist during couples therapy. The therapist's notes from that session don't name Brett Kavanaugh and also report Ford said four men were in the room. Ford says the discrepancy is the fault of the therapist.

10. Ford, by her own admission, has a hazy recollection of the incident.

Despite telling The Washington Post this incident so traumatized her she's been in recovery ever since, she also admitted not recalling the incident specifically. She doesn't remember the year it happened, but believes it occurred in 1982, when she was 15 and Kavanaugh was 17. She does not recall where the incident occurred, only that it was at a house in Montgomery County, Md. She forgets whose house it was and how she got there. She forgot whether Kavanaugh and Judge were already upstairs when she went up, or if they came up after her. She also forgot how she got home that night.

9. Polygraph tests are so unreliable they are inadmissible in court.

Polygraph tests do not have any reliable capacity to detecting the veracity of a statement, and are therefore inadmissible in criminal proceedings (except in rare circumstances where both parties agree). Here's how the law firm Broden & Mickelsen explain polygraph tests: "The machines measure a person’s biological processes to determine if they are becoming stressed out during interrogations. Factors such as an increase in blood pressure or heart rate are measured. While these may be indicators that a person is lying, they may also simply indicate that a suspect is feeling pressurized by the interrogation even if they are telling the truth."

8. The allegation wasn't released until Kavanaugh's hearings were over.

Ford's story first surfaced in July when she sent a letter to her congressman, Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-Calif.). That letter was forwarded to Sen. Dianne Feinstein in late July. For reasons Feinstein has not disclosed, she kept the letter secret until after Kavanaugh's hearings concluded, missing repeated opportunities to question Kavanaugh directly. By releasing the letter after the hearings concluded, Kavanaugh is effectively robbed of an opportunity to defend himself directly in a public forum. Feinstein has suggested she sought to simply honor Ford's request for confidentiality. Yet that doesn't explain her not bringing the matter up during the hearings, as she could have left the accuser nameless.

7. Kavanaugh has successfully passed six FBI background checks.

Brett Kavanaugh has already served in many of the highest levels of government, almost all of which required extensive FBI background checks. He passed all of these without incident. As Sen. Grassley wrote Monday, "Judge Kavanaugh has undergone six FBI full-field investigations from 1993 to 2018. No such allegation resembling the anonymous claims ever surfaced."

6. 65 women who knew Kavanaugh in high school have vouched for his character.

Unlike other recent #MeToo accusations, there are no similar stories from other Kavanaugh contemporaries. Indeed, it's the opposite. After Ford's anonymous allegation surfaced, a group of women who knew Kavanaugh in high school signed a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee, collectively serving as a character witness for Kavanaugh.

"Through the more than 35 years we have known him, Brett has stood out for his friendship, character, and integrity. In particular, he has always treated women with decency and respect. That was true when he was in high school, and it has remained true to this day."

5. The only witnesses deny her allegation.

Besides Ford, there are only two other named parties: Brett Kavanaugh himself and his friend, Mark Judge. Both have issued vehement denials. Ford, per the Washington Post, also named two others who were in attendance that night. The Washington Post said neither party responded to requests for comment.

4. The haze of alcohol.

By Ford's own telling, she was drinking the night of the incident. She says Kavanaugh was heavily intoxicated by did not indicate her own level of sobriety. Did alcohol affect her perception of the incident that night, or her memory of it? The Washington Post account does not describer her level of intoxication when the incident occurred.

3. Deleted her public social media accounts before revealing herself.

As The Washington Post reported, Ford deleted all of her public social media before she came forward, making it difficult to see the advocacy and partisanship she was engaged in the time leading up to her making her allegation public. Of course, Ford may simply value her privacy, but the act of deleting her public postings will inevitably make some wonder what she didn't want seen.

2. Ford may have an unrelated grudge against Kavanaugh, as his mother, once a circuit court judge, ruled against Ford's parents

In August 1996, Christine Blasey Ford's parents, Paula and Ralph Blasey, were foreclosed upon. Kavanaugh's mom, Martha, was then serving as a judge on the Montgomery Country Circuit Court, and she presided over the case. (Information about the case is available here.)

1. Ford is a Democrat who donates to left-wing causes, attended the anti-Trump March for Science, and previously signed an open letter challenging Trump's border policy.

Ford is a political activist who has made dozens of donations to left-wing causes. According to OpenSecrets, she has made more than 60 donations to liberal causes, with almost four dozen to the pro-abortion group, Emily's List, alone. Ford also donated to the DNC, Hillary Clinton (more than 10 times), Bernie Sanders, and the progressive organizing group ActBlue.

Ford likewise attended the anti-Trump March for Science, where she wore a hat knitted like a human brain, but inspired by the feminist "pussy hats" worn at the Women's Marches. Ford also added her name to an open letter from health professionals who argued the U.S. border policy resulting in temporary separation of some families was harmful to children's development. The letter, titled “America’s Health Professionals Appeal to Trump Administration: End Family Separation at Border Immediately,” argued:

“Thousands of medical voices from across the United States have joined forces with Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) to urge the Trump administration to immediately halt the separation of migrant and asylum seeking children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border. ...

“It should not be U.S. policy to traumatize children, and especially not as a form of indirect punishment of their parents. ...

“Forced separation of children and parents, especially in connection with the detention of a parent, can constitute an adverse childhood experience, which research links with disrupted neurodevelopment, resulting in social, emotional, and cognitive impairment, and even negative intergenerational effects."

What's the word from Anita hill on this?

 

[Crixus]

I'm beginning to wonder if the reason Feinstein failed to reveal the accusations during the time that Congress was investigating Kavanaugh is because she did not want Ford up there giving testimony before the entire country, knowing that something was very, very, wrong with her.

Because she knew it would go nowhere so she waited to dump it when it would be the biggest pain in the ass.

 

[task0778]

So have the two people involved testify on Monday, hold the committee vote on Tuesday and then the Senate vote on Friday. If confirmed, Kavanaugh could hear all the cases on the SCOTUS docket, which starts on Monday 1 Oct. I see no reason to dilly-dally, everyone already knows this whole thing is a bullshit delaying tactic by the Dems, get it done.

I realize politics is a dirty business, but this really is unscrupulous. To drag somebody like Kavanaugh and his wife and family through this kind of bullshit is about as low as you can go. Especially since she has absolutely nothing in the way of evidence to back her story up, and the only other witnesses both say it didn't happen. We are seeing a smear campaign against Kavanaugh for political purposes, with no concern at all for the victim.
