McConnell: ‘I believe the women’ accusing Roy Moore

[libertybele]

Maybe because they recognize him as a moral hypocrite.   Partisanship and partisan loyalty shouldn't go so far as to compel one to defend the indefensible.

There's still almost a month to go before the election.   If Moore steps down now, there may be a chance the seat can be saved.   THAT's where partisanship comes into play.   Sticking by an untenable candidate while his reputation implodes doesn't do the GOP, or conservatives, the least bit of good.   

You are entitled to your opinion your leftist ideals and philosophy.  #1 McConnell is a known liar.  #2  Moore is innocent until he is proven guilty.  #3 If this were RINO Kasich you'd defend him in a heartbeat.

I can only wonder what the Islamist Throwbacks think of this political catfight, and how many more of them it's inspiring to perceive us as weak and take up the fight against us.

Salient point.  They are counting on that 'divided we fall' factor.

[Cyber Liberty]

Weak?  How about strength?    I applaud McConnell and the many other Republicans and conservatives who are standing up to this moral hypocrite.   

Thank Goodness!  This was threatening to be one of the least humorous days of the month!

Washington Post is rolling out "man on the street" interviews from Alabama.  You can guess which way the majority of respondents leaned.

Indefensible? Nothing has been proven. You have shady accusuers and a shady reporter with a criminal past who does hit pieces against Republicans. Funny how you give all that a pass and yet give Moore no benefit of the doubt.

There's no evidence that Moore is untenable. All you have is a WaPo hit piece trying to drag his numbers down. All this fiction is in your mind because you are already biased against the guy and ready to throw him over the boat.

Funny how anyone who disagree with gays or transgenders is a bigot, but someone dating women you think are a little too far apart in age is reprehensible. You seem to have a very double and hypocritical standard of what is acceptable in romance.

These unsubstantiated political attacks are going to get American GIs injured or killed.

Ever notice that they is nearly a sole from Kentucky that will stand up for Mitch?  Make one wonder how he got any votes to get elected himself.

It's a shame we can dredge up some gal to say Mitch assaulted her.  But no one would believe a woman would let that creature get near her.

It's made up of a huge number of former Reagan Democrats, who are now full-on Yellow Dog Democrats now.

McConnell has a machine that operates exactly like Crook County.

So he went to all the kennels to get his votes? Probably had no IDs either.

Here is a picture of Mitch when he was asked about Menendez.

The hatred and dislike among most locals for McConnell is amazing to behold.  How he won against Bevin was the result of two years of the most vicious, evil and unbelievable slander and attacks that McConnell and the Democrats together ran against him.  I was getting big anti-Bevin postcards from McConnell within two weeks of Bevin announcing his candidacy to run for the Senate.   The amount of smear and vitriol in those hit pieces are right in line with what one would expect to get from Democrat operatives, not from the so-called leader of the Republican party who used nearly every single Liberal-Left cliche against Bevin as a Tea Party member that one could find.

McConnell is just an old, retarded version of Chucky Schmucky Schumer.

Mitch McConnell circled the wagons around Bob Packwood like a rabid dog. He looked a blind eye to Menendez. He kept his mouth shut about Dennis Hastert.....but a guy he genuinly dislikes get hit with an insane WaPo hit piece and he is outraged.

Mitch is a pansy squish.

I had forgotten about Robert Packwood.   But Packwood was their kind of Swamp Creature.   Moore is someone who won't go along with the Swamp.

That is exactly why all the swamp critters have turned on him.  And a few people here, I might add.

If for just one day, one glorious day, the likes of McConnell and McCain would train their guns on the Democrats with the hate and fury they reserve for us, I would be so happy.

But that day will never come.

I feel very passionately that we cannot let Roy Moore be railroaded out of a race he deserves to win.

It that happens, it will set a pattern for ruining every future conservative.  There are plenty of skanks out there with their hands out.

It’s nothing more than allegations and innuendo until proven. There is no proof other than a collection of sleezeballs with sleezy lawyers trying to make a buck or two off of a politician. Imagine if an old maybe so-called friend of your father from 40 years ago started making these types of allegations were to be appointed a CEO or president of a company as he worked his way up the ladder.

Nah!  The press and the Washington elites have said it's so and that's that!  /s

[sinkspur]

People have turned on Moore because two credible women have come forward who have accused him of sexual assault.  He was unfit for the Senate before these latest accusations and is a dead man walking now.

What proof do you have that any of these women were paid?  Moore admitted to dating teenagers when in his 30s.  And he only dated them, he says, "with the approval of their mothers." 

He's got the M.O. of a pederast.  If he wins and the Senate does not expel him, the Grand Old Pederast party will be branded for the next year and will lose the House and possibly the Senate in 2018.

Men are serving time in prison for what Moore did on the word of a woman alone.  So they're more than allegations.  There will be no further "proof."

Let the Republicans go into the election next year doubting the word of these women, after all the Weinstein and Spacey stuff.  They'll be lucky to keep the Senate, much less the House.

I think most turned on him because of his defense when they came out. In defending himself, he tried to justify some abhorrent behavior by qualifying it with statements like 'I never dated young women without getting permission from their mothers' and 'I dated many young girls when I got out of the military' (paraphrased). That qualification spin, if he wasn't talking about High School girls, was unnecessary, but sure makes it appear he was trying to justify dating, at least 16-17 year olds as he said he did.

When you add to your denial 'but', it makes people question the validity of the denial.

Until those two "credible" women file a lawsuit and prove their case in court it's 100% BS in my book!  We've seen this movie how many times now? Most recently with Herman Cain!

If they have something then why not take it to the courts? Why wait to be part of this 11th hour me too crap? It’s BS!
