I was born near Pensacola. Floridians tell me that's actually S. Alabama. That should count.

I think it does. When you go to vote and they ask for an ID you show them your Mobile phone and you are in. Vote early. Vote often.

I had to sound that out three times.

Alabama isn't the point, and neither is Roy Moore in the end.
In purpose, I don't give a crap about either one.
I do care that a man can be crucified in the court of public opinion.
I do care that a man's honor can be so readily discarded with absolutely no evidence.

I stayed at a Holiday Inn on the way to Miami.  Does that count?   :laugh:

Yeah, the probability is high that if Moore runs again, against the wishes of the GOP, the ticket will go to the rats..... yet again.   I think Moore was railroaded (Herman Cained).. but the same thing will happen again....and that is, as you know, the definition of insanity (expecting different results from the same stupid chit).

And no Conservative gets elected ever again.

In this toxic political climate, the more conservative you are the more demonized and targeted you are.  Hell, we have some members right here at this forum that seem to love to diss conservatives.  When asked what, if not conservative, they are... they either refuse to answer or feign offense.   Why?  This IS, after all, a conservative forum.

What I know with absolute certainty is that if there were any truth to these BS allegations they would not have waited forty years to come to light.  Roy Moore has been a public figure in Alabama for most of his life and is well known there yet these allegations only arose when he was well on his way to replacing Jeff Sessions in the U.S. Senate!

Have you a license that entitles you to this special knowledge?

Seems silly to say "if you aren't from Alabama, why are you commenting" because the same could be asked in reverse if one is pro or con on Moore.

We could even break out the tinfoil hats and say those speaking up for Moore simply want the Republicans to lose. It doesn't add much to the conversation.  Or vice-versa if one wants to have it like that.

No, babe, it wasn’t a huff-off.”  It was needing a break from the dumb before my own brain cells started to die from over-exposure.

I mean, you really exposed me for the Dem I am.

So... what ARE you?  If not conservative (since you diss conservatives).... what, then?   Anti-conservative establishment GOPe?   I'm curious.

And... you must have a chip on your shoulder about it.... since you insisted on responding...lolol.

@libertybele

And how would you feel about him running again and losing...surrendering what should be a "gimme" conservative seat to a liberal...perhaps even shifting the Senate to the Dems...in perpetuity. Because that is FAR more likely to be the outcome of what you think would be absolutely wonderful.

What I do care about are the liberal smear tactics that have gone on for far too long.  So, what you in essence are stating is that we need to vote for people who we think can win over a liberal,  even though they have voted along liberal lines in the past just to fill a GOP(e) seat, rather then vote for someone whom we know is conservative and has at least an ounce of integrity left.  Got it.  No thank you.  As long as people continue to vote that way, the GOP will continue to be in the same sinking boat that they're in.

Here's my problem with the Roy Moore thing.  He may or may not be what he is purported to be.  I don't know.  I suspect that from the last 40 years of his life, he's either moved on from prior proclivities or he never had them.  But, that's not my issue.

Conservatives, the Constitution, Godly Christians and Jews, and America as a whole are under attack.  One of the several things that has had us paralyzed and unable to fight back is that we are being attacked from every angle. School choice, spending that involuntarily commits future generations to servitude, increasing and unceasing attacks on the Constitutional foundation of our nation, abortion trending to infanticide, ascendant islam, open Communists in elected positions, environmentalism as a weapon, election corruption and outright stealing, venal and debased federal law enforcement, illegal alien invasion, entrenched and anti-American bureaucrats, an education system that produces mindless drones who vote democrat, and ever-expanding governmental control and intrusion.  And, that’s just off the top of my head.

It’s like drinking from a firehose – you don’t have time to even think much less form a defensive plan or a counter attack.  Probably deliberate and certainly effective.  Regardless, when you find yourself under a firehose or any similar attack, you have to do something to remediate the situation or it quickly progresses to much worse.  You have to decide what is absolutely important and what can be handled later after you are no longer under the powerful stream of water.   You have to make some smart choices.  You can think about that little boy who got cheated out of his cookie last week, and put your foot down and decide that must be corrected and now.  Or, you can do something that keeps us from having the skin flayed off and then drowning.

Conservatives seem to unerringly go for the cookie corruption, time after time.  We never learn.  When there are 400 principled issues that need to be addressed, you simply can’t address each and every one of them.  Pick the top 5 and work from there.  We might actually see some success that way.

I would tell Roy Moore, sorry you got probably screwed, but you’re alive, well and living in what’s left of the greatest nation on earth, and besides, this isn't about you.  Don’t do this, Mr. Moore, because you will help to speed our destruction, along with those who support your running again.

I'm really concerned about the cookie thing. All these websites that want me to accept their cookies. I think it is a trick.

There is only one way to fix this mess. One way.

BTW, that was a really good post. It was like an aaaargh only with more letters. I'm proud of you.

Oh, in answer to your question—I’m a socialist.  Considerably to the left of Ralph Northam, my state’s governor,  not quite as far as Ocasio-Cortez.
