Let’s be honest. Republicans don’t seem to have any principles at all. Even the self-avowed deficit hawks are willing to put their tails between their legs so that corporations and 0.1% can be further enriched. But a cynical person might think that if the tax bill is passed, and the CBO then revises it’s numbers to paint a more realistically dire picture, they will start slashing and burning anything and everything. |
If I say they need to name their 30 sources, you will say "they don't have to". That is correct, they don't. And therefore, I don't have to believe they have 30 sources and that the story is accurate. They can simply make up anything they want, publish it, then hide. |
If someone lies about their age, it matters. Can you tell if every girl is 14, 16 or 18 these days? I bet you can't. Neither could your son, who could easily be lied to. And in some states, it DOES matter. |

I can't believe the Republican party has become the party of pedophiles. I have voted Republican before and now I feel gross.
And before you start with "But Bill," I was too young at that time to even have awareness of that and god, at least it wasn't kids. I can't believe we are to a spot where we are even debating whether it's ok to be a pedophile. Disgusting. |
My DD is 13. With 13-14 year old friends. You can absolutely tell these are not grown women. |
| Why is a man in his 30s trying to pick up girls from 14-18? Yucky. |
This is neither a police investigation or a trial. A candidate for Senate isn’t entitled to a presumption of innocence or a standard of proof beyond a reasonable doubt. This is being tried in the court of public opinion, as these matters often are, and was the case of Juanita Broaddrick, which the right-wing noise machine ne was fine sith Moore doesn’t have a David Brock running around trying to dig up dirt. And the best he can do is offer non-committal comments about his “customary behavior.” Moore should put on his big boy pants. It’s nobody's fault but his own that he took them off in the first place. #GOPervs #GOPedos |
You’re confusing the WaPo with Infowars. The reason Moore isn’t saying more is that there’s a lot more to come out. His apologists want to bury it by scaring off the other victims. |

Maybe this thread it filled with Russian trolls.
37%of Alabam evangelicals say that allegations of pedophilia make them MORE likely to vote for more. Birds of a feather? I. Can’t. Even. http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/360010-poll-37-percent-of-alabama-evangelicals-more-likely-to-vote-for-moore-after |
Not to mention that 40 years ago, girls hit puberty a year or 2 later than they do today. 1980s 14 looked like todays 12-13. |

Moore knew she was underaged BECAUSE HE MET HER AT COURT BEFORE A *CHILD CUSTODY* HEARING.
I don't understand not reading the article before commenting. We are all stupider for having read your comment. |
| There was a picture of the girl at age 14 with the article. She looked very young. I would have guessed her to be around 12. |
Everyone is entitled to a presumption of innocence, at least in my world. I thought the Dems were a party of facts and science? |
The elementary school principal who thinks pedophilia is fine if it is not happening right now needs to be fired. |
No, they are not birds of a feather. They are people who know what liberals are made of. |
