Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's Attorney

@mrbromwich
Consistency problem: Kavanaugh endorsed polygraphs in a 2016 DC Circuit opinion. Today when asked if he would take one about the assault on Dr. Ford, he labeled them unreliable. What changed?

... over the past few days - as have others.

Kavanaugh's stated position has been that polygraph tests are a reliable tool for determining truthfulness or deception.

When questioned about it today, he did a complete 180 and stated that lie detector tests are not acceptable in court due to their unreliability.
