Spent all of today listening to and watching the one-day Senate hearing of Christine Blasey Ford and Brett Kavanaugh. Wow, what a day of testimony. I found Ford thoroughly credible. I found Kavanaugh terrified, on the edge of losing everything. It's probable he doesn't remember a thing about her, given the degree of drinking he did. But he also might know exactly what had occurred that summer afternoon so many years ago. I thought it was telling that, like Clarence Thomas, he didn't listen to what she had to say. It's telling because if he were truly innocent he'd want to know what she had to say so he could refute it with absolute conviction. If he knew the details, there's no need to listen to what she had to say. To me, this is such an obvious red flag. Not that it matters. The angry, indignant white guy wins most of the time in this country. Looks like he'll win again after this.
AA Singles league at the club. Played six games and went 4-2.
