Right now I am more upset with the weak kneed R senators than I am about the allegations vs. Judge Moore... including every FReeper’s hero, Sen. Lee. What a sad bunch we have ... better start serious primary challengers NOW.

[TheConservativeParty]

I am still steamed at what they did to Herman Cain.
Judge Moore needs to keep fighting for his good name.
Eternal shame on those who have slandered him.

Anyone taken a serious look at the ONE accusation against Moore, and the real background of the one making the accusation?

No corroberating evidence. No other victims (so far) - and nearly 40 years ago... yet never to see the light of day until this particular campaign so very urgently desired by the Democrats...

I’m all about rooting out bad behavior - especially REAL harassment (and worse) - yet for decades, harassment (specifically sexual in nature) has become a tool to destroy people, and it all happens without a shred of evidence necessary - just make a bold accusation the the one being accused suddenly is considered guilty - and even remains partially “guilty” even if he (or she) is able to show very strong evidence they are innocent. The damage is done.

If Roy Moore did what he is being accused of doing - shame on him. For waiting nearly 40 years to let loose with this (yet totally unsubstantiated) bombshell... when there is a HUGE political office at stake -

Character assassination is not always bad - sometimes people REALLY ARE horrible monsters - and those need to be hunted down and dealt with, in a timely manner as to minimize the victimization. But lets at least set a threshold of evidence and presume the one being accused is innocent until PROVEN guilty by a preponderance of the evidence. He said/She said should not be enough to destroy a person’s reputation.

A vote for Moore could easily morph into a vote against LMSM fake news and establishment politics-as-usual.

[Dr. Sivana]

brought forth 40-year-old sexual molestation accusations

The accusation is not 40 years old. The accusation, best I can tell is less than a few weeks old. The events described in this very recent accusation would have taken place almost 40 years ago.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

His accuser is on Hillary’s payroll. No credibility.

[robel]

Alinsky rule #12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Republicans fall for it every time. Lately, some are even in on it.

[cableguymn]

They have done it to Trump and Cruz as well...

It’s the same dirty trick they pull every time things don’t go their way..

From what I am gathering about Moore, it’s not sticking and the people that matter (voters in his state) are not buying it.

[W.]

Democrats have always been the party of the LIE!

[KC Burke]

Doesn’t the Wash Post have to file FEC papers since they are serving as a publicist and propagandist providing services in-kind to the Democrat in the race?

[lizma2]

It started with Clarence Thomas. (or maybe earlier?)

The media was malicious and then was silent over The Bent One. Disgusting since 1990.

[Nifster]

Precisely

[taxesareforever]

Don’t forget the Clarence Thomas treatment either.

[Kartographer]

The Herman Cain Treatment? I remeber that and all the FReepers that drew their knives and jumped on that train.

[TBP]

Exactly.

[Yaelle]

This is NOTHING like what happened to Herman Cain. No one even accused Cain of messing with young teens. The only problem was that apparently Cain had some extramarital dalliances of some kind, and was shamed into stepping down. It was CAIN’S mistake (and I am a Cain fan) not to just mention in a softball interview early on that he’d caused problems in their marriage but that he and his wife are closer than ever, bla bla bla. Done.

This is what worked for Donald Trump. Sean Hannity asked him in one of his early candidacy interviews about his early failed marriages. He immediately claimed responsibility for all the problems and the subject was diffused and OVER. I am sure Herman regrets not doing that when he ran. It would have then been a non issue. Many marriages deal with infidelity and many weather it.

This isn’t a past moment of infidelity, sex with a willing adult. This is accusations that the Judge favored teens when he was in his 30s. Which at the time was legal as long as the girls were 16. The girls he admits knowing we’re over 16. (But for some mysterious reason Moore fudged on his “memories” of the 17 year old girl. I don’t know why the heck he did that.)

IT’S A FAKE!
Analyst Says Judge Roy Moore Signature Inside Gloria Allred Accuser’s Yearbook Was FORGED



The sevens in 1977 to the right of “Christmas,” are very different from the sevens in the date (12-22-77) above “Old Hickory House.”

“Look at the two versions of the number “7,” tweeted Wictor.

“”12-22-77” and “Olde Hickory House” were written by a different person,” he added.

Next, [Thomas] Wictor points out “the “R” and “y” in “Roy,”” are not written the same way.

The inflection of the “Y” is more pronounced in Moore’ signature as Chief Justice. The “R” is noticeably longer in the signature of Chief Justice, as well.

“During his legal career, Judge Moore became the first full-time Deputy District Attorney in Etowah County, Alabama, and served in this position from 1977 until 1982. In 1984, Judge Moore undertook private practice of law in Gadsden, Alabama,” states Moore’s bio on his campaign website.

“The accuser to this day calls him the District Attorney. He was NEVER District attorney. He was DEPUTY DA. DDA,” says Wictor. ... "

Check out this little fact from TheCipher

Interesting revelation about the signature in the yearbook and where it probably came from.
Turns out Moore was the judge who ruled against Nelson in her divorce case and the signature is exactly how it was on his ruling - explains the D.A. ( which Nelson has ).
Nelson also said she never had contact with him since the "incident"and failed to mention he was the judge in her divorce case.

Here's an excerpt from Rush Limbaugh's Radio Show:

The Swamp Demands Conformity
Nov 15, 2017

...
RUSH: Here’s Mark in Port Townsend — where’s Port Townsend ?
Port Townsend what?

CALLER: That’s a little bit west of Seattle.

RUSH: In Washington.
Okay. Great to have you with us.
How you doing, sir ?

CALLER: I’m doing great, sir.
I hope you’re doing well yourself.

RUSH: I am under siege today, Mark.
I’m under siege.
The Drive-By Media is after me because I dared to point out that Roy Moore used to be a Democrat.

CALLER: That’s why you get paid the big bucks.
I’m envious of you.

RUSH: (laughing).

CALLER: So the comment I wanted to make was that as a retired law enforcement officer, Jeff Sessions —
I’m speaking as a retired law enforcement officer
— Jeff Sessions says he doesn’t see any reason to doubt these girls’ word.
Well, I see a really good reason.
None of these girls have been put under oath and made a sworn statement under penalty of perjury.
And Gloria Allred should be able to tell you
that is the first thing you do when you get a client,
you depose them and you get their statement on the record,
and then you go from there.
And if they’re not willing to make a sworn statement, that sounds really fishy to me.

RUSH: I take it you don’t believe the women
or you just don’t have enough information yet to make a determination ?

CALLER: You don’t have enough information to make a determination,
but speaking as an ex-cop, I find it fishy that nobody has made a sworn statement.
And about that yearbook thing,
you know, when I was in uniform at a certain time of year
you’d get kids walking up to you all the time wanting you to sign their yearbook.
“Hey, Officer Mark, sign my yearbook.”
And I was only a cop.
Can you imagine how politicians get kids wanting —
doesn’t mean you remember all of them.

RUSH: Hang on.
On the yearbook stuff, folks, for those of you who may not be up to speed on this —
and I doubt there are very many of you
— there are allegations that some of these autographs in yearbooks are forged.
There are conservative blog sites claiming to have evidence by virtue of side-by-side comparison
that somebody other than Judge Moore signed some of these things.
This is the first I’ve mentioned that.
I’m just reacting to you bringing up the yearbooks.

You’re upset with Jeff Sessions.
He’s the attorney general, and he is going ahead and acknowledging that
he believes witnesses before anybody’s been put under oath,
and you think that’s a little unprofessional, right ?

CALLER: It sounds to me like he’s just trying to tread carefully.

RUSH: Well, look, this is politics.
It has its own court, and it’s not a court of law.

CALLER: But these girls are making public statements —

RUSH: They are women.
They are women.

CALLER: Okay, they’re making public statements impugning somebody’s honor.
And somebody with responsibility needs to explain to them,
if you’re gonna besmirch somebody, you gotta put it on the record.

RUSH: No, you don’t.
Only in court.
And this is not in court.
This is in politics.

CALLER: I understand it’s politics,
but Gloria Allred should know what the law is.

RUSH: I’m sure she does.
That’s why she’s not in court and is instead on TV.

CALLER: I just want to make that point, Rush.
Thank you.

RUSH: I’m glad you called, Mark.
Folks, I have to tell you,
I’m having a little fun with this.
No, don’t misunderstand here,
but he’s exactly right, but of course that doesn’t —
there’s a whole different inertia and movement now that is taking place in the world of politics,
and there is no room for doubt.
I mean,
the guy did it, you don’t disbelieve the women.
I mean, that’s something you must subscribe to now.
The women don’t lie,
except if you’re Juanita Broaddrick,
then of course…
that’s the point.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: I was having fun with the caller and his obvious consternation
by confusing what happens in politics with what happens in the law,which is ironic,
because the laws are written by these people.
But what happens there
apparently the law doesn’t matter first and foremost.
Find it funny.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Steve in Rochester, Minnesota.
Great to have you with us, sir.
How are you ?

CALLER: Hey, good.
Thanks, Rush. Dittos.
I’ve been listening since 1991.
So I was reading through a Fox News story on the various senators,
Republican senators and their comments about this whole situation,
and I read read ’em one after another; there were many.
And I was thinking as I got most of the way through it,
this sounds a lot like your media montages, vis-a-vis gravitas,
that I often hear on your show.
The similarities were striking in what they said.
And it was an observation that led me to think that
this is really a coordinated attack.
And I think that should be the focus, not the “he said, she said,”
but the fact that
this guy’s being attacked by the establishment, big time.

RUSH: Let me put it to you another way in the form of a question.
Interesting observation, by the way, that you,
in reading and listening to all of the different people opposing Judge Moore,
they’re all saying the same thing, is that your point ?
Just like when Cheney was mentioned as the potential vice presidential nominee for George W. Bush,
about 85 media people all said,
“That’s gravitas.
This is to provide gravitas.”
They all had that word.
You think the same thing’s happening here with the response to Judge Moore ?

CALLER: Yes.
Exactly.

RUSH: Okay.
So do you think —
let me just ask you point-blank
— do you think that, whether he did it or not, ,b>he’s being railroaded ?

CALLER: Yes.

RUSH: Interesting.

CALLER: Yep. I think this is a coordinated attack,
and what spurred me to think this
was your comments yesterday about Mitch McConnell attacking Bannon’s choice.
And I thought
how else could you do this ?
Here we are a month away from the election.

RUSH: Let me tell you something.
I don’t think there’s any doubt here.
When Bannon went public and said that
Judge Moore was the first of many candidates they’re gonna support
in order to oust the Republican leadership,
I don’t think there’s any question here that McConnell’s reacting to that.

Let me just ask you this.
Have any of you ever,
do you ever remember Mitch McConnell or the Republican leadership ever going after a Democrat
the way they’re going after — (interruption)
You don’t remember.
You don’t remember McConnell ever going after a Democrat the way they’re going after …
