Christine Blasey Ford's strategy for stalling the appointment until after the election



Saturday, September 22, 2018
 Attorneys for Christine Blasey Ford have once more asked the Senate Committee for to delay her having to appear before them to explain why she accused Kavanaugh of attempted rape.
For more than ten days, she stalled going to the committee in order to buy time for the Democrats to manufacture new accusers, claiming she is afraid of flying, even though she had taken extensive trips abroad. Her latest gambit is to force the White House to extend the investigation beyond a week, hoping clearly to stall the nomination until after the November election.
Previously her attorneys claimed that the real reason she doesn’t want to be questioned in front of the judge is because she is fundamentally shy – and would be too embarrassed to go into the details of the alleged rape attempt in front of the man she has already given detailed accounts about to the press.
Of course, this is not the first time Ford has played the delaying game.
A confidential source – which may or may not be the same source feeding The New Yorker and other questionable media – produced a document of future communications that may shed light tactics she used to stall in the past, and may resort to in the future if forced to appear again.
The attorneys apparently have discussed some of these with Ford such as the fact that she overslept or is too tired to get up or forgot something when back home and so by the time she retrieved it was too late to appear and so she needed a postponement.
Most recently, she notified her attorneys that her pet cat, Elmo, got stuck in the toilet and plunging didn’t get it out in a timely fashion.
She also claimed that a bison hit her car in the parking lot, and it took time for the police to get the bison to produce insurance coverage.
Ford also claimed that she ran out of milk for her cereal and had to go find a cow.
She also informed her attorneys that she stayed up late to watch “All the President’s Men,” and could not go to sleep until she found out how it turned out.
Ford also claims that her cat Elmo, once free from the toilet, peeved on her alarm clock, shorted it out, so she failed to get up in time and so had to ask for another postponement.
Apparently after getting to sleep, Ford had a terrible nightmare that nobody believed anything she said, and then when she woke up she found out it was true.
This led to a panic attack and so she forgot everything she and her lawyers rehearsed and when she went back to find the notes that they gave her, she found Elmo had eaten them. So, she needed yet one more postponement. She also believes Elmo absconded with the keys to her car, a plot by the GOP – perhaps even Kavanaugh snuck into her house, or perhaps it was the same imaginary people she claims were threatening her life (She apparently got an email that also threatened Elmo).
All this tension has left her immune system in shambles, and no matter how many pep bills or vitamin supplements, she just can’t get her energy back – she also needed to get a root canal ahead of the hearing, although her lawyers have urged her not to since her being in pain would play well on TV.
Her lawyers have also argued that Ford is still suffering from the after effects of hurricane Maria, even though that was more than a year ago and she was thousands of miles away at the time – the lawyers called it sympathy pains.
Recently, she also needed a postponement because she couldn’t find shoes that matched her outfit – and also needed to find pink clothing to go with the pink hat she wore during one of the women’s marches last year. Her lawyers also suggested she not wear the “Not my president” t-shirt because she might be mistaken for one of those whacko protestors.
The attorneys have informed the Senate Committee that they are certain that Ford will be able to work out these issues at least by election day – although she may come down with a headache if the Democrats win. If that’s the case, she won’t be able to appear until after the Democrats take over the U.S. Senate.
