Roy Moore's Accuser Count is now up to 9

[Boatswain2PA]

The media has reported a story about nine women, giving their real names, were sexually assaulted by this man. The press is doing its.job, and if it embarrasses your political party, that’s really your problem.

Yes, the same media who highlights EVERY accusation of misdeeds by republicans, while downplaying the misdeeds of Democrats. Again, refer to how the media mostly ignored, or castigated, the multiple accusors of Bill Clinton.

Thanks for this article, which does give a nice illustration of biased reportng by FOX news.

Thank you for proving my point. There is virtually NO media in this country anymore who reports in an unbiased manner. You have Fox on the right, and then you have CNN/MSNBC/NBC/CBS/ABC on the left.

No general point has been proven; we have an n of 1.
It is just interesting that one would choose such a hack piece of evidence of anything other than that piece being a hack piece.

LOL. It is unclear why the MSM didn’t ignore the Gennifer Flowers story; but they didn’t. It seems that there was a lot of coverage of stories of Bill - even after long after his time in office. Your lenses may need adjustment.

Clinton was two decades ago, back in the heady days when Harvey Weinstein could grope and rape with impunity.

And Al Franken has got plenty of headlines, probably more than Moore over the last few days, so the “woe is us” act is getting a little old, and really is nothing more than a more plaintive version of whatabouttery.

Back to the topic, Moore has been accused by nine women who have openly identified themselves. Let’s get back to that fact, and how you and others have been trying to float the Cosby Defense.

I would be unable to refer to this because it’s fantasy.

Indeed. I wonder if Boatswain was around during that time, because you couldn’t turn on the news for a couple of years without hearing about Clinton’s sexual indiscretions.

Just curious:

1. How many people on here who believe the women also believe Juanita Broadrick?
2. How many of you approved of Bill Clinton in 1999 after news on his scandal broke?
3. How many of you are concerned about the rape crisis in Europe?

I sure would hate to think some of you are being hypocrites and/or intellectually inconsistent…

Hmmm Do you mean believe what she said in her affidavit, consistent with her word over the years, or what she said when she contradicted all of that?

How many of you approved of Bill Clinton in 1999 after news on his scandal broke?

1999 - that would coincide with his acquital in the Senate. What as you referring to as the scandal? And what all do you mean by “approve”?

How many of you are concerned about the rape crisis in Europe?

I am concerned about rape.

And more whatabouttery

I’m not saying these woman are lying, but then I’ll spend the rest of the post suggesting they are lying.

Spend the rest of the post showing there could be another side… Since none of us knows for certain what actually happened…

How exactly is the media reporting on someone who attempted to assault a 14-year-old girl damaging our country? What’s damaging the country are people who believe any report that is negative towards their favorite politician is fake news and made up and then they will go to the forums claiming that the media is bias.

You are condemning before a trial. Condemning via the MEDIA! If they report it, it MUST be true…

There isn’t going to have a trial, and once again voters aren’t jurors.

 

[Mulligan2]

“Whatabouttery” is often used when the original topic of discussion is indefensible. And a deviant sexual predator who preyed on young teenagers is clearly indefensible.

 

[F_Marturana]

A trial is necessary for criminal conviction.

We can make a judgment call that Moore had a problem with young girls. That’s been corroborated by the different women who didn’t know each other, yet had similar stories of his abusive behavior.

If he were a teacher, would you be comfortable having him in the classroom until after the allegations were proven?

Neither candidate is desirable IMO One allegedly has a proclivity towards young girls ,the other candidate is all for assaulting nascent life even up to the last moment before delivery.

They reported Moore attempted to assault two girls, trying to date another seven, getting banned from the mall because he was always hitting on girls there, hung out at high school football games, hung out at the Y - Moore’s defense is doesn’t remember but if he did date someone he asked the mother’s permission (WHAT?).

So, anyone that looks at that evidence objectively would not have too much trouble saying he did it and shouldn’t be a Senator. But that gets in the way of politics, so let’s ignore all the evidence and blame the media.

Though one may have stopped his very bad behavior, judging by the dates of the accusations.

 

[niceatheist]

You can totally ignoring his molesting children, because he hasn’t done it in a while. Is that it?

 

[Jig_Saw]

Even if he hasn’t done it for a while, he’s calling the women who said he did do it (and also the women he ‘dated’) liars and subjected them to the vitriol of the conservative community, so you tell me if this is the ‘family values’ representative you want.

Well, I guess if you can accept a child molester, than a little lying isn’t a big deal.

It would be worse for the Republicans for Moore to win and be seated because every Democrat in the country can run against Moore in 2018.

Correct,whereas it sounds like killing baby girls and boys in utero will increase if this other guy has his druthers
