Judge Moore accused of sexually assaulting/pursuing underage girls in his 30s

No, Palma has already shown us the Pub's next play. Blame the Democrats for the Republicans running an alleged child molester.

There is no doubt JHMD will be along to gloat about this (presumed) win and Dems taking the L.

These guys are proud of their party.
 
Well to be fair if it weren’t for meddling liberals the good old days would still exist. Possibly slavery would still be around, definitely no civil rights, woman wouldn’t be able to vote, wouldn’t be working, there would be solid family units with both parents, religion would be in everyone’s lives, no crazy sexualized society but still the ability for men to take what they want from woman no questions ask.

You can't say you have morals and vote or support Moore. He thinks Slavery was better than today; that being gay should be illegal; that in a country based on freedom of religion no Muslim should be allowed to be in Congress; that sex with a 14 yo is OK and other un-American and immoral things.

But some voted for and supported a self-admitted serial sexual assaulter (with victims confirming his actions), serial thief (with 100s of verdictsd proving it), a self-admitted pervert who thought it was his right to see naked and half-naked teenage girls (with confirmation from his victims); a person who found guilty of racial discrimination on multiple occasions and much more.

Vote for Kasich or the turtle or Jeb or even Carson or many others, but you have intentionally given up any ability to say you have morals if you have for or supported either Trump or Moore.

From an AL voter on NPR this morning:

Moore isn't a good person, but you have to weight it morally. On one hand, you have a man who was ACCUSED of inappropriate actions with young women. On the other hand, you have a man who is for the murder of millions of people. When you look at it like that, the choice is pretty easy.

Went on to say that not voting is an option (and one his wife would probably take), but to him, a no vote is a vote for Jones.

For many, the vote for Moore is the MORE moral choice than any democrat.

http://www.al.com/news/index.ssf/2017/08/child_marriage_is_still_legal.html

Back in May 2001, a bill was introduced into the Alabama Senate that sought to raise the age a person can marry from 14 years-old to 16. But during a late night filibuster, the bill failed to pass. Lawmakers did not want to raise the age, according to an Associated Press report from the time.

"I couldn't believe there was so much opposition to it," said former Alabama representative John Hilliard (D-Birmingham), who introduced the bill after discovering that children from neighboring states were coming into Alabama to get married. "How can it be that a child as young as that was being promised out by their parents? And almost nobody at the time was able to tell me why it was okay for it to continue."

It would be another two years before the state increased the minimum age to 16. "That's still a child," Hilliard pointed out when he spoke to AL.com.

...

But getting to the bottom of the why child marriage is still allowed is not easy, as former Rep. Hilliard alluded to.

Throughout her nationwide research, Reiss observed that the overwhelming reason that legislators have kept the age down is it offers young pregnant women an alternative to abortion. "Marrying off a pregnant girl often relieves the burden on the parents and means that, in some cases, abortions can be avoided."
 
Roy Moore Emerges From Hiding for Election Eve Rally, and Good Lord, Was It Weird

In his closing argument, Roy Moore had a friend who had served with him in Vietnam tell a story about how they once went to a brothel, but then left when they realized what it was. Then his wife informed the audience that they had black friends and that their attorney is a Jew. Nailed it.

Anyway, thread on how Alabama Republicans got here:

Yeah I agree it's a tough spot for the GOP - they're just going to ignore it once Moore wins and hope it goes away (which it likely will in large part since there are so many scandals in the current 24/7 news cycle). They won't kick Moore out because that will just further sharpen the divide between "federal government is out of touch with what states want." If the GOP kicked Moore out, he'd run again and win again - probably by more.

I have the feeling that this one won't go away so easily or quickly. Like Trump, Moore is a loudmouth and bigot who loves the spotlight, and he's not going to change in the Senate, imo. If anything, winning this election will give him a golden platform to push his "Confederate victory tour" social and cultural beliefs in Congress. Of course it won't go anywhere in terms of legislation, but it will most certainly keep Moore in the public eye and will continue to harm the GOP's image and brand nationally. So, I'm not so sure that McConnell and other Senate Republicans will be able to ignore him. Moore, like Trump, doesn't strike me as the "to get along, go along, team player" type. Just wait until Trump shows Moore how to use Twitter. That should really be fun.

I understand this totally misguided concept. The ignorance of not being able differentiate being pro choice and being "for" abortion is one of the biggest failures in messaging of Dems over the past forty years.

lol:

Have you ever traveled down a dirt path in rural southeast Alabama in December and arrived at a barn in the woods to find Steve Bannon, Representative Louie Gohmert, Sheriff David Clarke, Roy and Kayla Moore, a woman performing an interpretive dance in front of a tree, and several inflatable alligators?

That's a great Twitter thread. The Republicans screwed themselves over hard to get to this point.

Heart-breaking interview with Alabama peanut farmer who protested a Roy Moore rally in honor of his lesbian daughter who committed suicide.


https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...moore-strikes-a-nerve/?utm_term=.571dcb6c9627

Perhaps it was the man’s strong but plain-spoken rebuke outside a Roy Moore rally on the campaign’s final night, condemning the Republican candidate’s past comments lambasting homosexuality.
Perhaps it was the admission of the man, a peanut farmer, that he too, had harbored some of the same anti-gay feelings.
Perhaps it was his sign, a photograph of his daughter, a lesbian who, he said, had killed herself when she was 23.
Whatever it was, the two-minute video of Nathan Mathis struck a nerve, traveling far and wide as a sort of emotional coda to a wrenching U.S. Senate race in Alabama that has captivated the country.

The 74-year-old Mathis, a former county commissioner and state representative in Alabama, said he was speaking out against Moore because of his own experience with his daughter, Patti Sue.

He said that Moore’s comments on homosexuality amounted to calling gay people “perverts.”
“This is something people need to stop and think about,” Mathis said. “You’re supposed to uphold the Constitution. The Constitution said all men were created equal. But how is my daughter a pervert just because she’s gay?”
Click to expand...

Mathis, who described himself as religious, said that he too shared some of those anti-gay beliefs.
“I said bad things to my daughter myself, which I regret,” he said. “But I can’t take back what happened to my daughter. Stuff like saying my daughter was a pervert, I’m sure that bothered her.”


But he said Moore’s thoughts on gay people rang false to him.
“We don’t need a person like that representing us in Washington,” he said. “That’s why I’m here.”
He held a sign that noted the accusations that surfaced during the campaign by women who said that Moore made sexual advances toward them when they were teenagers.
“So that makes him a pervert of the worst kind,” the sign read. “Please don’t vote for Roy Moore!”

Here's the letter to the editor he wrote about his daughter during the 2012 election:

Heart-breaking words of a man trying to do right by his daughter.

Alyssa Milano is driving people to the polls in Alabama. I've never been jealous of someone in Alabama before.

 
I am seeing posts on Facebook claiming that there are reports from at least one county in Alabama, where they are running out of ballots and need to print more because turn out is much higher than expected.

Which county? I want to feel optimistic about this, but I think it’s going to signal a rout for Moore.
