Trying to get this question. >> i know, but you made a point and i just want to re-emphasize. all four witnesses who were allegedly at the event said it didnt happen, including dr. fords longtime friend, ms. keyser. >> if mark judge were in front of us to question, wed be able to handle this -- she is now a medical doctor and im quoting from a recent interview she gave. she said brett kavanaugh drank more than a lot of people. hed end up slurring his words. stumbling. its not credible for him to...

Projects and going to church. he declared that he, quote, never, end quote, drank so much he couldnt remember what happened and he has, quote, always treated women with dignity and respect, end quote. and while he has made these declarations, more and more people have come forward, challenging his characterization of events and behaviors. james roach, his freshman roommate at yale, stated kavanaugh was -- and i quote again -- frequently incoherently drunk, end quote. and that was when, quote, he...

He feels bad for kavanaugh but doesnt feel bad for ford. >> the idea that he delayed in her reporting may be an convenience and may actually have some memory lapses involved in it, but because you delay does not mean it did not occur, and i think a forgone conclusion is not the same thing as having a meaningful hearing. if theyd like to understand, and frankly if youre justice kavanaugh or judge kavanaugh at this point, im not sure why youre not on the highest soapbox saying i would like the opp...

Dementia. i mentioned and others have mentioned that in the later stages of his presidency, he seemed to be struggling with short-term memory lapses and things like that. could that have been a result of the early stages of alzheimers? possibly. because we now know as a medical fact that dementia, a late-stage symptom of alzheimers emerges after about ten years with the disease. simple math tells you then that he must have had the disease in its early stages when he was president. but thats an e...

Apparently in the throes of watergate was becoming somewhat unhinged, according to people who were around him. my father was diagnosed in 1994 with alzheimers-related dementia. i mentioned and others have mentioned that in the later stages of his presidency, he seemed to be struggling with short-term memory lapses and things like that. could that have been a result of the early stages of alzheimers? possibly. because we now know as a medical fact that dementia, a late-stage symptom of alzheimers...
