Again, imagine actually believing that.
Every single post is a formal logic fail.
You essentially are arguing:
If X, then Z.
All Xs are Ys.
Therefore, if Y, then Z.
That's just a straight up formal logic error.
X=first-person claim of sexual assault
Z=investigation is warranted
Y=accusation (of any type)
Bullshit. You keep subtlely changing details to fit your argument. Blasey-Ford accusation was to thwart a political nominee, not to investigate Kavanagh for rape (that was her entire goal), the D's turned that accusation into an FBI investigation.
I'm not saying "any type". The investigation based on the accusation was to thwart a political appointee, for political purposes. You can claim it's standard for politicians to demand criminal investigations by the FBI, based on nothing more than accusations, but that's not how it works. One, that type of thing is handled by local jurisdiction, not the FBI. The D's requested the investigation, not some complaint made by the purported victim. The entire thing was a politically motivated investigation, which is why you don't like what Trump did, but do not have a problem with what the D's did for a SCOTUS nominee, and pretend I'm the one with the logic fail, after you ignore some salient similarities. If you were serious about wanting the rape investigated, you would of wanted the D's to do it right, and have the local authorities investigate it, and not have the FBI try and dig up dirt on a opposing political appointee, for political purposes.
Who the **** goes to congress to have a rape investigated? A lefty who does not want a pro life judge appointed. If she was concerned about the rape being investigated, she would of went to the local authorities, not the media, and damn sure not congress. Spare me the lack of concern for rape victims argument. It's not applicable when Blasey Ford herself has only used it for political purposes.
