Kavanaugh Can Join Thomas.

[John V]

Earlier in the thread, Chad said that, even if the allegations were true, he doesn't think it should disqualify Kavanaugh because it happened when Kavanaugh was a minor, and we shouldn't hold that against a person for the rest of his life.

I daresay that Chad wasn't factoring in the fact that Kavanaugh has been denying it. However, when I responded to the same question, I noted that technically it applied now after the denials, and so I would be against Kavanaugh in that case.

Same question, different interpretations, different answers. It happens.

There's a difference between giving a statement and being interrogated. I've been interrogated, you'd be surprised (apparently) at the details a skillful questioner can turn up that you might not have consciously recalled until the interviewer noticed something in your statement and had a chance to press you for more details. When you have to give an answer on the spot vs. mulling it over with great deliberation. In my case, I remembered a detail that led to investigators discovering key evidence, and it was something I barely noticed at the time (whether a key was missing from a keyboard, which placed the keyboard in the car they had found the key in).

The FBI are actually pretty good at their job, AM.

You mean the FBI who have done multiple background checks on Kavanaugh already, and missed that he was a serial rapist in high school and college?
