I agree that it is the trendy thing to do right now.  I also know the depths that both parties and most politicians will stoop to in a key election.  Trendy is one thing.  Screwing with elections is quite another. 

I don't like Moore any more than I like Trump. Like I said, investigate, charge and proceed with a trial.  

But if this is purely a political move, it is lower than I would expect even from Hillary.  In case you don't know, I have just as much respect for Hillary as I do for the slime on the waterline of a boat.
I think the why now is politics, but more about the O'Reilly, Weinstein etc take downs that are occurring. I predicted on the Weinstein thread that this thing is going to snowball - and Moore got caught up in it.

And I'm glad he did.

My prediction for Moore? He wins, Senate refuses to seat him, and the Gov sends someone else there till there can be a new election.

This ^^.

If Alabama wants to put a bible thumping pedophile on the supreme court, even after he's been booted once for flouting the law...that's their own damned business. We don't have to live in or visit Alabama. Roy Moore is the sort of judge I always held up as the worst sort of nightmare for someone like me, and I would not want to be arrested anyplace he has jurisdiction over. But I can just stay away.

When you start talking about the U.S. Senate and someone that will be both voting on national laws AND sits on the razor's edge of a very narrow GOP majority while the GOP is rampaging around the country like they have some sort of mandate to turn the US into a Billionaire's paradise against the will of the people...that will garner national attention.
So much for a voice of reason.  Have your better half explain what a Pedophile is.  And get some money back from Brown.   

 

Nice!

My prediction? That someone else is Jeff Sessions, after he 'resigns' as AG.

Then 45 can nominate an AG who hasn't recused himself from the Russia investigation.

Fuck off, dipshit.

Are you going to try shade Moore's actions again by whether or not there's grass on the fairway?

A 14 year old is a child, especially with respect to a 30 something and sexual contact.

How is it in any way mysterious that Roy Moore got nominated by the GOP in Alabama?

The same reason he got elected as a judge again like twice by the same voters despite being removed for going against the law.

The guy is an obnoxious Bible thumping zealot.  These seem to be favorable characteristics for an electorate that has a lot of Bible thumping zealots in it.

Seems like basic math to me.

I joke about Alabama because that’s what I do, but there are a lot of good, decent, intelligent people in Alabama. I only question whether they will show up to vote in sufficient number to defeat this predator. I suspect that they will. We have likely not heard the last of the accusations.

Bad timing like reopening an FBI investigation while absentee voting is going on tends to annoy people.    Justifiably when the investigation concludes there is no evidence.

Fuck off?  That's some Ivy league quality rhetoric.  Look up pedophile and apologize.  I think the mf should be shot but I have a better vocabulary than you.  

PS  BJ, don't feel bad, my ex brother in law (Harvard grad) drives for a car service.

Aren't you the old coot that claimed stratospheric test scores in another thread? What happened to you then, that you feel so inadequate? Those interviews that showed off your scintillating personality keep you out of going to school where you wanted to?

You want an apology? I'm sorry that you're a nasty twatbucket. Does that help?

Let me offer you up a challenge:

You are intent over nitpicking the difference between a pedophile and a statuatory rapist. Why you care is beyond me, but you seem to think this is an important point, enough to derail the conversation and throw insults at people for no reason.

So try this:

1) Suggest directly that a poster here, any poster, likes to fuck underaged girls.

Then get back to us on how you do arguing about the difference between that and calling someone a pedophile.

At least we both agree you are fat.

"ur fat," from the guy that complains that being told to fuck off isn't cerebral enough for him.
I wish I could fight and not just be in envy.  BJ, you are living my dream.  The first National Geographic I read was Robin Lee Graham circling the earth.  I spent five weeks as part of my job at the North Pole, that was my adventure.  I wish what you have and please continue to make fun of me.

I have no interest in fighting with you or making fun of you.

But if you're going to insult me, I'm going to hit back.

Dude, know when to pack it in and let it go with some dignity. I don't agree with kmac on... well, much of anything really, but he's right about you being handed your ass. Give it up and stop compounding the loss by acting like a butt-hurt twelve year old :rolleyes:
