Re: Moore scandal
100%
...but this mob mentality where "you are guilty" if accused is an awful precedent. The Moore scandal has a ton of questions, but he's guilty...according to most...with no trial and 1 month before an election. The "October surprises" are always questionable, IMO. It's just fishy. I mean, Ryan Seacrest was accused of saying something inappropriate to a woman like 15 years ago. Really? Dustin Hoffman was accused of something similar recently that took place 30+ years ago.
Anyway, this has already been discussed on this thread, but we shouldn't automatically assume anything unless there are pictures or the accused admits their offense. It's a slippery slope.
Believing people with no proof is a tough pill to swallow.Last edited by ravenmaniac4life; 12-07-2017 at 11:26 AM.

Re: Moore scandal
Couldn't you say the same thing about sex offenders on the left? I mean, look at Anthony Weiner. That guy was supported for a long time after the first round of allegations came out.
Bill Clinton - that guy has been a sexual predator for a long A-F time, but he's Bill Clinton and gets defended.
Al Franken is another...how long did folks know about Harvey Weinstein?
I agree with you that Roy Moore is a disgusting individual and the Republican Party should do the right thing and remove any support from him. The Republican Party could have done the right thing here by taking the high ground, which IMO, would have made the left look bad considering it wasnt until recently that they ousted John Connyers and clearly everyone still supports Franken.Disclaimer: The content posted is of my own opinion.

Re: Moore scandal
I do to.
If Roy Moore's accusers are telling the truth, than Moore can burn in hell for all I care. However, given the nature of the accusations (40 years later; prior to an election; credibility issues; the lawyer's refusal to let the yearbook be tested for validity)...it makes you wonder. Again, if true...I hope he is thrown in jail.
How can you prove that something didn't happen 40 years ago? It's an easy political move to push these allegations especially considering that it has historically happened a lot within politics. The Dems need the seat...so it's being crammed down our throats and a lot of the reporting isn't entirely accurate. That adds to the doubt as well.
Again, an accusation with no proof is a tough pill to swallow.

Re: Moore scandal
Look it isn't just the two accusers it's all the reporting from the people who were around Moore at the time. From coworkers and the mall he was banned from.
I do think he should have stepped down from the race. I believe the allegations. However, I recognize my belief is not the court of law of which he's never been formally charged. He also denied the allegations. The voters of Bama at the end of the day have to make their own decision.
Just speaking personally. I would never vote for him ever after hearing the CREDIBLE allegations levied against him. The only pause I have is that I know the motivations behind the allegations. It's obvious. Allred is a democrat operative this is what she does but the end of the day none of that matters. Motivation or not for me it's about truth.Last edited by boller4president; 12-07-2017 at 04:39 PM.

Re: Moore scandal
Again, I don't care which side of the aisle you hail from. Defending stuff like this is the reason why this country will get worse before it gets better.
We need to put the pom poms down for a minute and critically think about what we're seeing. That's NOT acceptable behavior. The guy should not be running for office.
And FWIW, left and right wing doesn't matter to me. They're both from the same bird, IMO. Neither party is what I would term "good for the country". The system is broken.
