Woman says Roy Moore initiated sexual encounter when she was 14

a reply to: Phoenix

To recap, 10-30 hours overtime, a common practice nationally, work extended hours and many weekends.

That's busy alright. I wonder if Roy was that busy. In 1977. In Etowah County?

a reply to: Phage

So what's that got to do with writing down a restaurant name correctly.

a reply to: Phoenix

Roy can't spell? On top of liking very young women?

The Senate can vote to expel its members. It's happened. It's possible they could interview witnesses under oath. Nelson has said she would testify under oath.

Political dynamite. C4 maybe. Probably nuclear, actually.

The problem is we have a current Senator in court for bribery and he will most likely be convicted, Menendez. Now has congress expelled him? Why not?

a reply to: Xtrozero
I give up. Why?

Politics?
The Republicans are just really nice guys?

I doubt he (Roy) would be expelled, actually. Like I said, really bad for the Republicans to do so.

Is Menendez the Congressman who's hung the jury? I heard a reference to him on Hannity today. Must be a Democrat, cause none of the liberal media has mentioned the guy.

Hannity is now giving Moore 24 hours to give a better explanation or to drop out.

Steve Bannon is starting to turn too.

When your biggest supporters are losing faith... it won't be long now.

In the last 50 years is there even one shred of legal documentation against him? I don't know, but it seems they already has been tried and convicted...

He could have been some 20/30ish year old chasing young women... The problem is no one has ever come forth with a single bit of documentation to that effect. So what this leads me to think whether this really was a big issue back then for them to not to. We have the tendency to place current values on yesteryears that had different values. I would say every person in political office today could be removed for their beliefs and actions of the past that does not align with today's social norms, and if nothing is officially documented then we move on.

You're embarrassing yourself to other agenda brethren here IMHO.

I do find your type reality bending logic an entertainment. Either that or its just plain ignoring facts don't fit preconceived notions, haven't decided which yet.

Got get rest tonight and will pick up tomorrow.

You have not presented many facts which are relevant. The facts are these;

5 women have said that Moore behaved inappropriately, if not criminally, with them.

There is corroboration that Moore had a proclivity for young (very young) women.

Moore says he didn't do anything wrong and that he always asked their mothers for permission.

Ya deadlock, must be 50/50 republicans/liberals...lol The point is he went to trial and Moore has not been indicted. When you or me look at Menendez in a non-political way he is guilty as anyone else in Washington dealing with bribes.

In 1979 a quite beautiful woman approached me at a gas station (she was intrigued by the hang glider on top of my car). We had a pleasant conversation and I asked her if she would like to have dinner with me, she said yes. We went to dinner at a mid-scale restaurant where, in the course of the conversation, she mentioned that she was 18. We finished dinner, very pleasantly, I took her home, and never did see her again. Not on her account.

I was 26. She was too young.

All that and buck will get you a cup of coffee at the court house...

As has been pointed out, to you specifically, it's not going to court.

If you did should that stop you from running for any office?

I'm older had a good number of women hit on me in my 20s back in the day, some very aggressive... I'm not hunting them down to say they tried to pick me up 40 years ago...

On a side note would a 34 year old been to old for you then too?

But...but he is already guilty is he not?

What does that have to do with this:

We have the tendency to place current values on yesteryears that had different values.

The "values" were not different. At 18 the woman was legally an adult but she was too young. And she was gorgeous. Found out later she was modeling.

Good for you. Did you do them? Do you think that is the same as a 32 year old man seeking out teenagers?

Permission for what exactly?

That's where it gets cloudy.

Many parents let their kids go with a "person of position" -- that they trusted -- because of that position.

Many parents trusted their sons with priests. I doubt they gave permission for sexual abuse.

He will most likely win and I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy of both Washington and the media.

a reply to: Xtrozero

Not to mention the hypocrisy of good Christian voters.

Oh, yeah..."In the Bible"

By your values... Oh and values were different and are always different...

I'm not saying it is right to do either, but at some point someone needed to officially complain to really make a point out of all this.
