Ford's accusation goes back to her high school days, in approximately 1982, when she would have been 15 and Kavanaugh 17. She claims that Kavanaugh lay on top of her and groped her while heavily intoxicated and that the incident ended when a friend of his, Mark Judge, jumped on both of them, sending them all tumbling (you can read a more thorough account here).

Just as telling may be her student reviews. Consider the following screen grab of one of her reviews (now scrubbed) from the popular siteRate My Professors:

Given that many people enter psychology to, at least in part,remedy their own problems, that there could be "something wrong with her" wouldn't make Ford unusual.

Some bad reviews were posted just Sunday, after Ford's identity was revealed. They generally have no detail, and it's safe to assume they were posted for political reasons (and Rate My Professors has been removing them), but then there's also the 2014 review below:

There are a couple of other older "Awful" reviews, as well as two students rating Ford "Average" and a pair labeling her "Awesome." Yet even one of the latter – after saying that while the professor is not that "personable," he'd "enjoy taking her for another course in the future" – warns, "Stay on her good side though..." Why would this be necessary? An ethical teacher doesn't let personal animus influence the way students are treated.

But perhaps what a woman named Rebecca Diserio posted to Twitter Sunday explains the problem. She wrote, "Both of my sons had her [Ford] at CSF....my son who just became a Deputy Sheriff (LA County) said 'She's crazy.' Harped & attacked kids who argued for conservative values...both my sons withdrew from her class after two weeks...her bias was way worse than most SJW professors."

So has Kavanaugh gotten on Ford's bad side by expressing conservative ideas? Probably. And even if her allegations are true, I very much doubt she'd have come forward had Kavanaugh stayed on her good side by being a leftist reprobate in the mold of Slick Willie or Chappaquiddick Ted Kennedy. For a good example of such situational sexual mores, note that liberal reporter Nina Burleigh actuallysaidin 1998 about B. Clinton, "I'd be happy to give him [oral sex] just to thank him for keeping abortion legal."

As for Kavanaugh, unless it's shown that he's like Bill Clinton and Ted Kennedy and has exhibited a pattern of sexual wrongdoing, there's nothing to see here. Ford claims that the 36-year-old alleged incident of sexual misconduct took place in a room with only her and the two boys present. So while 65 women who knew Kavanaugh in high schoolhave come forwardto vouch for his character as a gentleman, Ford's lone word is the only claim against him. Heck, there are more testimonials as to Ford's alleged insanity than there are regarding Kavanaugh's alleged impropriety.

It's true that Bill Clinton's liberal '90s apologists justified his sexual misconduct with the claim "character doesn't matter." It nonetheless does, and since Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation hopes are being influenced by accusations that may speak to his character, it's only fair to examine the character of his accuser. This woman, Palo Alto University psychology professor Christine Blasey Ford, is a radical social justice warrior with some damning student reviews – including one from a person who wrote, "I am honestly scared of her."

Ford's accusation goes back to her high school days, in approximately 1982, when she would have been 15 and Kavanaugh 17. She claims that Kavanaugh lay on top of her and groped her while heavily intoxicated and that the incident ended when a friend of his, Mark Judge, jumped on both of them, sending them all tumbling (you can read a more thorough accounthere).

Whatever the truth of the matter, however, certainly true is that Ford is a radical leftist who'd be inclined to zealously oppose a Kavanaugh nomination. For example,Breitbartreportsthat she not only has attended anti-Trump events, but actually donned a pink "brain p‑‑‑‑ hat" for a 2017 anti-Trump march.
