Things can always — always — get stupider.
Late last week, 65 women signed a letter vouching for Brett Kavanaugh’s character. And that just cannot stand, which is why another letter is circulating, this one from a bunch of women who happened to attend the same school as Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford. Not necessarily with Dr. Ford, mind you. But they did go to her school and everything. So they’re practically her closest confidantes.
A group of women who went to Christine Blasey Ford’s high school are circulating a letter to show support for her https://t.co/cs8JWe7OY9 via @aterkel @ArthurDelaneyHP

Yeah? And?
Are they accusing Kavanaugh?
Because if not, none of this matters. https://t.co/dmvEfmcJXQ

And it shouldn’t have any bearing whatsoever on the Kavanaugh hearings.
The response to Kavanaugh's letter from 65 women who knew him in HS is a letter from 200+ students who … went to the same school as the accuser sometime "between 1967 and 2018"??
The one person quoted in here graduated in 2005, never knew either of themhttps://t.co/Jvf8wQrCQt

Yep. More from the New York Post:
The letter says the women — who graduated from the private Holton-Arms School in Bethesda, Md., between 1967 and 2018 — believe California psychology professor Christine Blasey Ford “and are grateful that she came forward to tell her story.”
“Dr. Blasey Ford’s experience is all too consistent with stories we heard and lived while attending Holton,” the letter says.
…
The letter is posted on the Google Forms website and says it’s been signed by “200+ alumnae,” but the names of the signatories aren’t included.
Sarah Burgess, a member of the class of 2005, told the Huffington Post that she wrote the letter with several schoolmates because Ford’s claims felt “personal.”

Oh, well. If it felt “personal,” we should definitely put a lot of stock in her signature. And in everyone else’s on that open letter.
"It sounds plausible and confirms my biases, so I assume it's true." Hey, it worked at UVA. https://t.co/0GNLrwhNMp

Wow, anonymous women who never knew the accuser or the accused and didn’t even attend the school at the time of the incident?
Super legit, guys https://t.co/g3oCOfaCBJ

From alumni not even part of his class. Irrelevant!!

So all those that signed the letter don’t actually know the accuser but believe the story because they’ve heard similar stories? That’s rather weak as proof this actually happened.

"The names of the signatories are not included". So now we have a letter of support for the accuser from "schoolmates", who went to the same high school as her, spanning over 5 decades, and all signed anonymous…
Sometimes you go so far into "crazy", that "stupid" seems normal.— Robert (@DC_Rob) September 17, 2018
What the hell is this nonsense? https://t.co/vaSXUdDG5I

Also, seems like anybody can sign the letter. Here's the form: pic.twitter.com/ZdKVHDhcHB
