WaPo: Roy Moore underage sex allegations. 12/4 update: Trump endorses. Jones wins

[K1052]

Murkowski is apparently pushing Luther Strange to mount a write in campaign. Shit is getting real.

 

[Jaskalas]

Please have legs.

I'm sure they all did.

 

[shortylickens]

While not dismissing for one second the allegations against Weinstein or Spacey. Of course!

I'm actually getting irritated that so far only Cosby has gone to trial, and that fell apart with a hung jury.

We need closure on all this shit.

There's no point to that. Anyone opposed to Moore should vote for his opponent. I know I intend to.

Sexual deviancy is caused by causing children to feel their natural desires are sins to be dealt with by absolute suppression. This can happen to liberals or conservatives because repression can be present in the childhoods of either case. It does happen, however, that most sexual suppression has a religious base caused by religious contempt for the flesh. It so happens that religion is also how many self loathing people replace their destroyed self respect with the mantle of religious zealotry and righteousness. There are, however, plenty of religious liberals or ones who were exposed to it as children.

They are grasping at straws or want to make totally sure Moore looses. Having him in Congress isn't going to do the GOP any favors whatsoever for 2018, especially now that he's as attractive as investment property at Chernobyl.

This seems quite important.

Without detailed information on each person the reporters spoke to including their complete voting history, psychological work ups, drug tests, credit scores, political leanings of friends and family, family trees there is just no way to judge the accuracy of this reporting. We just can't know if they are telling the truth about this honorable man who has always obeyed the law and constitution except for the few times he lost in court and had to be removed from office.

this bastard was the founder and president of the Foundation for Moral Law.

i'm so tired of the total and complete moral bankruptcy and hypocrisy of the GOP.

 

[K1052]

I think, politically, they have to get Strange to stage the write in campaign to torpedo Moore. Yes they loose the seat and it makes everything harder but it's like handing a lead pipe to the Democrats and begging them to beat the shit out of the party. They've already got enough of a Trump character problem that seating a pedophile under their banner is, probably, a bridge too far.

If WaPo obtained this without the women coming forward I'm damn near convinced there's other skeletons in the closet. For me that is the most credible part of this. They overheard it and tracked it down. People clearly know things.

Do you think it's possible after all these years that the GOP has just been using the evangelicals for political purposes only? Say it isn't so.

Hopefully we're beginning to enter an era where this shit comes out instead of remaining buried for decades regardless of political party. I feel sorry for the victims who had to carry this with them while this fucker pretended to be a moral man.

 

[Pens1566]

Well of course he did ...

 

[fleshconsumed]

GOP senators already turning. Flake, Murkowski, Perdue saying that "if true" Moore has to drop out.

How noble of them...

If true he should go to jail, not just drop out.

 

[Thump553]

I'm highly suspicious. His alleged misconduct involves females, which is far beyond the norm for GOP politicians.

That sounds like a Hannity talking point....

Roy Moore’s Office for MORAL LAW is closed and not accepting messages

 

[zinfamous]

wow an ignorant homophobic bigoted republican redneck asshole is a deviant sexual predator.

Shocking.

 

[senseamp]

Alabama? Are these women his daughters or sisters? Otherwise, it's fake news

Weinstein is likely headed for prison from what I've been reading.

 

[senseamp]

GOP = Grabbers Of P...y

 

[K1052]

The in state defense from his supporters seems to be that it can't be true because people would have heard about it before now.

Even a snake would have a hard time getting under the bar this state sets for itself.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

So the uniform response from just about every GOP rep/Senator has carried the qualifier "if this is true". Why not just say if he's dumb enough to admit he did it then he should step down but otherwise, rock on!
