Balsey-Ford was a very bad witness. Just not credible at that point in time. My take is something happened to her at that party or she thinks something happened, because drinking was a big part of it. And the event whether how it happened or how she remembers it, effected her a great deal. So I don't think she was lying. But very probably remembering incorrectly. Again, she was drinking too right? So she was not a credible witness and in the end basically found not to be a credible witness.
But that said, Justice Kavanaugh, appears to have been a bit of a creepy dude in his youth in high school and college. A lot of drinking, which isn't a crime or even that unusual for that age. But also a lot of claims of unusual behavior of exposing himself and so on. He just comes off as creepy to me. Like one of the privileged dudes who thinks they can get away with things others can't.
Who would even have a calander like that from 40 years ago, and if you did you should destroy it if it makes you look as creepy as it made him look. Now in his defense that was what 40 years ago. I am guessing we all did things in our teens and college days (I didn't attend college) that might look a little creepy 40 years later at our supreme court confirmation hearing, right? I mean, we like to think these folks are something special, but they were just people and kids before they were judges.
