There was a post earlier this morning that relayed information that Corfman would falsely accuse pastors in Etowah County. One even went to trail and was thrown out due to the fact she tried to shakedown one of the Pastors. Year was 2007. Does any Freeper have Lexus-Nexus to look up Corfman 2007 Etowah County Alabama and see if there is anything there?

Cynthia Malkin, Richard Blumenthal’s Wife: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know

2. They Met When She Was 16 & He Was 31

There is a 15-year age difference between Richard Blumenthal and his wife Cynthia; he is currently 70, while she is 55.

According to the Hartford Courant, the two met at a party in Greenwich, where 16-year-old Cynthia was accompanied by her parents; Cynthia and Richard were paired up together in a game of tennis.

They met again at Cynthia’s cousin’s wedding a few years later, and they started to date when Cynthia became an adult and began attending Harvard University.

The two of them were engaged during Cynthia’s senior year at Harvard, and they were married the following year when she was 21 and he was 36. The wedding took place at Cynthia’s parents’ home, according to The New York Times.

Blumenthal is the weirdo. He hung around lying in wait for this rich girl.

Blumenthal is beyond weird. He's rich because his wife is rich. Richard's net worth is $104 million! His wife's family are part owners of the Empire State Building valued at $2.5 Billion! He's 31 when he meets her and she's only 16!

makes me so PROUD that I dropped my republican affiliation at the Supervisor of Elections Office earlier this year.
Things will be quiet for a few weeks, and one is tempted to think, “Maybe it is better to be able to vote in the primaries”. There is some validity to that thinking.
But I just felt like it was time (personally, for me, maybe not for you) to send a message. The higher up the organization you go, the more obvious it seems that the political parties are both run like a pimp-opoly (is that the right word?)

Morman Mike Lee does what Morman Mitt Romney tells him to do. Morman Jeff Flake did the same thing.

I think the good people of Alabama will see right through this hit job from the McConnell and his democrat pals. Fox has gotten as bad as CNN. They all want to throw him under the bus.

After hearing that, I hope that every stinkin’ one of them can find out what it’s like to be accused of something as wretched as Moore has been and conclude without any evidence whatsoever that it happened therefore - he has to go! Disgusting!

Their actions validate the accusations, making them effective. I suspect in due course, as each of these republican senators come up for re-election, the same accusations will be made against them.

“How damn bad is when Jesse Watters calls for a real conservative to step aside.”

After hearing Watters today rant and rave about how Moore should step down and even say he defied a court on the 10 Commandments and ss “marriage” and is just not what the party is about today, I came to the conclusion that Watters just plays a character on Fox, I think he’s as liberal as the day is long.

I will never understand Mike Lee’s fans. He’s always one of the first to throw a conservative under the bus. His holier than thou aura is unappealing.

Innocent until proven guilty is the foundation of modern Western justice.

The recent round of sexual harassment lynch mob activity reminds me of the South Park episode where all the adults have been put in prison because the kids have accused them of touching them in a bad place. Of course the kids revert back into ‘Lord of the Flies’ tribalism.

We may not be to far from that now. The Senate is already stampeding.

“Innocent until proven guilty is the foundation of modern Western justice.”

Justice? Hmmmm....justice, justice, jus — OH, THAT!

Yeah — no, they don’t teach justice in Law school, anymore; haven’t for more than forty years. The lessons are all about legal philosophy, and definitions, and engineered legality. It’s been SO long since justice was a core element of the legal profession that there’s now an entire generation of attorneys and judges firmly ensconced in practice who have ZERO grasp of the concept.

We’ve no Justice system; we’ve a legal system (barely), which — if it does actually ever produce justice, does so only by sheer accident.

Lee and Daines. Obviously everyone is scared of guilt by association, the media used that faggot Mark Foley to attack all Republicans in 2006, it’s understandable.

This comes on the heels of his Hannity radio interview where while he sternly denied kissing the 14 year old he seemingly admitted that he dated 16 and 17 year olds while an adult (late 20s to 30ish I think). (The reaction to this interview has been extremely negative.)

YMMV but I have zero problem with that, girls at that age are sexually mature and used to commonly marry, and no one is saying there was actual sex, just dating for cripes sake. I’m not gonna sit and here and pretend I find the idea of having sex with a 17 year old girl “disgusting”. Now if you have daughters and you are thinking a 28-30 year old guy with your 16 year old is “inappropriate”, I respect that dad/mom. And perhaps it is “inappropriate” given teenage emotional maturity levels these days.

But It’s certainly not

A)A crime, the age of consent in Bama is 16. IMO this is probably the proper age of consent.

B)Pedophilia, , pedophilia means prepubescent children, period, most pedophiles (eg Jarrod from Subway) seem to go for both boys and girls. Comparing a completely legal liaison with a young lady who is sexually mature and over the age on contest to child rape is despicable and silly, I wouldn’t even compare it to going after 13-15 year olds. It’s not unnatural or wrong for a man to be sexually attracted to a 17 year old girl, come the hell on and break me off a piece of the Kit Kat Bar.. Anyone calling Moore a pedophile should drink bleach and die.

Now, here’s me, I’m a pragmatist who’s in it for myself, the ONLY thing I care about is keeping this seat from falling into the hands of the liberal swine democrat who will vote to F up my life and the lives of all Americans. I would vote for a serial killer over Mr. Jones, (a killer of adults I mean because Jones is a huge Planned Parenthood guy) because a serial killer could be expelled and replaced by the GOP Governor. The past is over and done with, the future is all that matters to me.

In that vein I supported Mo Brooks, Mr. Regular Conservative as opposed to Mr. Swamp Corruption or Mr. Controversy. I was and am still 100% convinced that I was correct and that Brooks was the NO BRAINIER choice over the other 2. But alas he came in third. In the runoff after weighing all opinions I quickly and firmly came to the conclusion Moore was the better choice than Big Luther and went to the mat for him here on FR. Even tussled with some people who said he was a moron or whatever. And guys (Mariner I think you were one I talked to), you had a point, obviously. This is a VERY inarticulate man, he’s kinda the anti-Trump in that regard. I cringed when he seemingly took the Rand Paul “I won’t vote for a less than perfect Obamacare repeal” position right before the runoff which gave conservatives legitimate reason to consider Strange.

There is some talk that this irrelevant garbage isn’t bothersome to the voters of Bama and will go over like that grab them by the P nonsense did in the general election, I hope that’s true. I want to see polling. Yes, polling, no polling is not all “wrong” as we say when we don’t like the result. RCP polling average for VA Governor was way off, in OUR favor (with the more rattier polls being correct) and the NJ polling average was right on the money.

But certainly we must acknowledge the possibly that despite what we want or think that Moore might be boned. People hear “16 year old girl” and they don’t like that.

If polling shows he’s boned I would support the option put forth that Hannity has also endorsed that the Governor can use her broad discretion to delay the election while President Trump has a come to Jesus talk with Justice Moore about stepping aside. No one ever wants to step aside, I think only the President could get him to do it.

Again the seat is all the matters to me. Don’t talk to me about those damn RINOs, I do not support letting democrats take Senate seats out of spite against establishment Republicans. The die is cast and we can’t change it. We need to see what the voters of Alabama think. Doug Jones kills babies, celebrates queers, raises taxes and wants wise Latinas to tell us we’re wrong about what the constitution says, remember that,
